Scouting. From what the Titan understood it was all just looking at stuff, shooting things, and opening up every cache you found and taking what was useful. Hunters made it all sound so complicated. Herschel would politely listen to the advice they gave on being stealthy and then, well, go tromping off like the titan he was.
And what did it matter? So many enemies kept their stuff unguarded anyways! The chest he was currently pawing through was decently well hidden and he would have just walked on by looking for more dusklight crystal if the Grand Duchess hadn’t pointed it out. They were assigned to loot Red Legion caches, but, well, disarming the Fallen wasn’t bad either.
He was inspecting something he assumed to be a tube of raw ether when a growl rose up. Head snapped to the source of the sound and the vial fell out of his grasp, rolling away unharmed to where a large figure started looming out of the shadows. He’d never seen an actual proper Fallen up close before, nothing lager than a vandal. And this one... This one was one was huge. This was one of the ones mothers on the Reef tell their children will come and eat them if they misbehave.
“O-oh. Hi. Is this--uh, this is yours, isn’t it?”
