===Insurrection===
During the late-25th and early-26th centuries Lyrenne Castilla was a high-ranking member of the insurgency in the [[Outer Colonies]]. She was given command of the captured [[UNSC Frigate]] {{UNSCship|Bellerophon/Bellicose}} which on three occasions engaged the {{UNSCship|Gorgon}}, captained by [[Preston Cole]]. Twice she was able to escape and on their [[Skirmish at Theta Ursae Majoris|third encounter]] they fought to a draw. As the two ships coasted in space having fired off all their ordnance, Cole and Castilla engaged in a text-only conversation; she knew his identity, but he did not know hers.

Three months later, in September [[2501]] Cole was on leave on the colony [[Roost]] in the [[Lambda Aurigae system]] when he met Lyra tending bar on a beach. She told him she got her PhD in nuclear engineering before moving to Roost to fish and pour drinks. The two hit it off immediately. Cole would return to Roost the next three times he was granted leave. Preston Cole and Lyra Castilla were married November [[2502]] during Cole's fourth trip to Roost. When he wrote home to tell his brother of his wedding, Cole reported that Lyra was pregnant. He also said that he was truly happy for the first time he could remember.

[[Codename: SURGEON]] determined that Admiral Cole almost certainly faked his death at the Battle of Psi Serpentis and survived by executing the second ever in-atmosphere slipspace transition. Evidence suggests that Cole somehow contacted or was contacted by Lyra Castilla before the battle and orchestrated the insurgent participation in the battle. In all likelihood, after faking his death, he rejoined Lyra and settled somewhere outside of both UNSC and Covenant-controlled space.
