On [[2559#December|December 12, 2559]], Robin Dimik was aboard the {{UNSCShip|Infinity}} when it was [[Battle over Installation 07|ambushed]] by [[Banished]] forces upon arrival at [[Installation 07]]. As the ''Infinity'' fell to the Banished assault, Dimik was evacuated onboard the [[SKT-29 Bumblebee|lifeboat]] ''[[Papa Tango Delta Zero Nine]]'' piloted by [[TJ Murphy]]. During its escape from the flagship, Dimik's lifeboat flew through a destroyed [[Banished]] [[Banished dreadnought|dreadnought]], but it lost its back section to weapon fire, and spun out of control as it entered the ring's atmosphere.{{Ref/Novel|RP|1}}

Dimik's lifeboat crash-landed on the surface of the ring, and was lodged inside a crevice, leaving its occupants trapped. The crew took turns transmitting a distress call, which was answered by [[SPARTAN-IV Program|Spartan-IV]] [[Tomas Horvath]] of [[Fireteam Intrepid]].{{Ref/Reuse|rp3}} However, after the explosion on the ring and its sudden [[slipstream space|slipspace jump]], they lost contact with Horvath. The event, which fractured the ring, also buried the lifeboat deeper into the crevice, until Spartan Bonita Stone arrived and tore open the lifeboat's hull to pull out each survivor, including Dimik.{{Ref/Novel|Id=rp5|RP|5}} Over the next six days, Dimik and other lifeboat survivors travelled across the region with Spartan Stone. They eventually rendezvoused with another group of survivors led by Spartan [[Nina Kovan]].{{Ref/Novel|Id=rp7|RP|7}} The combined group became the "[[boat crew]]". Led by Stone and Kovan, they travelled to the UNSC stronghold at the wreckage of the {{UNSCShip|Mortal Reverie}};{{Ref/Reuse|rp8}} they arrived on December 19.{{Ref/Novel|Id=rp9|RP|9}} Dimik was assigned to the weapons and ordinance stockpiles,{{Ref/Novel|Id=rp13|RP|13}}{{Ref/Novel|Id=rp1|RP|15}} likely due to her understanding in preventing and de-escalating of explosives or fires as a safety specialist.{{Ref/Reuse|rp3}}

On May 14, the team translocated to the vicinity of a beacon tower near the Conservatory. Dimik and Cameron placed explosives at a wooded ravine leading to the beacon while Horvath provided overwatch. As they detonated the explosives, the beacon tower fired its supraluminal message to UNSC space, and the two raced towards the beacon tower.{{Ref/Novel|Id=rp35|RP|35}} However, a massive number of Banished reinforcements attacked the beacon tower, led by [[Jega 'Rdomnai]]. While Dimik was able to escape her pursuers, Cameron was run down and killed by a Banished [[Terror Wraith]] after he was unable to get out of the way in time.{{Ref/Novel|Id=rp36|RP|36}}

In [[Battle of the Beacon Tower|the ensuing battle]], while Horvath dueled with [[Gorian]], a [[Jiralhanae]] [[Bloodstar]] in the Banished, Dimik snuck closer to left a [[Jovokada Workshop spike grenade|spike grenade]] for Horvath. Horvath returned the favor by using his pulse carbine to kill two [[Kig-Yar]] approaching Dimik. Horvath used the spike grenade to disable Gorian’s energy shields, then delivered the killing blow with an energy sword given to him earlier by [[Erik Bender]].{{Ref/Reuse|rp36}} However, the Spartan was teleported away because his duel with Gorian left him on a translocation pad, which was then destroyed by a [[Thrasher missile]] after teleporting the Spartan away.{{Ref/Novel|Id=rp38|RP|38}} At around the same time, Dimik took a plasma round in the shoulder from Banished forces while she scrambled to rejoin Bender and Kovan.{{Ref/Reuse|rp36}} As the Banished surrounded the trio, they were rescued by Veridity, who flew in and fired her [[focus beam]] at the Banished, then teleported the survivors to another location before disappearing. The three spent the next four days treating their wounds and repairing equipment; Kovan treated the wound on Dimik's shoulder and a few other superficial wounds with [[biofoam]]. As the three rested and contemplated their wins and losses at the beacon tower, they agreed their next step would be rescuing Browning from the [[Tower]].{{Ref/Novel|Id=rp39|RP|Chapter=39}}

While serious and respectful,{{Ref/Reuse|rp7}} Robin Dimik is prone to moments of levity, laughing at jokes at dire times,{{Ref/Reuse|rp3}} or sometimes being playfully blunt or sarcastic to her companions.{{Ref/Reuse|rp7}} Dimik is a resilient woman, so much so that Lucas Browning wondered if anything fazed her;{{Ref/Reuse|rp5}} despite being in terrible pain, she refused painkillers for a grade-three concussion after their lifeboat crashed on Installation 07,{{Ref/Reuse|rp3}} then after they were rescued, she gave Browning a smile and a thumbs-up while her wounds were being treated.{{Ref/Reuse|rp5}} Murphy observed that Dimik—already tough before the Battle for Zeta Halo—had grown more hardened and adept while the boat crew was on the run following the fall of the ''Mortal Reverie''.{{Ref/Reuse|rp21}} Dimik's will was key to Gorian's defeat; despite being unarmed, she stealthily passed a spike grenade to Horvath, who was inspired by her courage and eventually used the grenade to disable Gorian's energy shields, eventually killing him in close quarters combat.{{Ref/Reuse|rp36}}


According to Browning, during the Battle for Zeta Halo, Dimik has taken a liking in Murphy, as he noticed Dimik has, on multiple occasions, stolen subtle glances at Murphy.{{Ref/Novel|Id=rp27|RP|27}}  
According to Browning, during the Battle for Zeta Halo, Dimik has taken a liking in Murphy, as he noticed Dimik has stolen subtle glances at Murphy on multiple occasions.{{Ref/Novel|Id=rp27|RP|27}} Dimik did in fact show care for Murphy; when Murphy quietly avoided scavenging boots from dead soldiers to replace his worn boots, Dimik dropped a pair of combat boots and a pair of socks in front of him, then instructed Murphy to give up his worn boots before flinging the old footwear away.{{Ref/Reuse|rp21}}

As a safety specialist onboard the ''Infinity'', Dimik wore a work overalls and a white tank.{{Ref/Reuse|rp5}} Later during the conflict on Installation 07, Dimik developed an expertise and enthusiasm in mixing explosives; she carried an [[M41D SPNKr]] on her back,{{Ref/Reuse|rp31}} while wearing a vest—as well as carrying a rucksack—filled with ordnance, grenades, and explosives.{{Ref/Reuse|rp35}}
