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]] [[Bellicose|UNSC ''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.<ref>'''Halo: Evolutions - Essential Tales of the Halo Universe''', ''"The Impossible Life and the Possible Death of Preston J.

On June 13, [[2503]] [[Admiral]] [[Harold Stanforth]] sent Cole [[UNSC Transmission 08871D-00]], informing him that the [[Office of Naval Intelligence]] had determined that Lyrenne Castilla was a member of the insurgency. Cole was given the opportunity to try to convince her to turn herself in, but when he got to the bar on Roost he found only a transcript of his conversation with the captain of the ''Bellicose'', who he now realized was Castilla. Castilla likely gave birth to their child shortly after, while she was in hiding.{{Ref/Note|Cole's letter to his brother mentions she was pregnant in November 2502. When Cole wrote of her fleeing in June 2503 he made no mention of her taking their child with her, suggesting she had not yet given birth, though she would have been at least 7 months pregnant.}}

One January 2, [[2504]] UNSC [[Battle Group Tango]], consisting of four heavy destroyers, [[Battle of Theta Ursae Majoris System|cornered]] the ''Bellicose'' in the [[Theta Ursae Majoris System]]. The ''Bellicose'' delivered heavy damage to two of the destroyers before apparently losing control and becoming caught in the [[Gravity well (physics)|gravity well]] of a gas giant.
