On December 6, Eklund's troops managed to neutralize the Covenant's last emplacement in the [[Caravelle province]], with two [[M9 Wolverine]]s being lost to [[Banshee]]s in the process. After this skirmish, Eklund and her Rangers planned to move out and rendezvous with local [[Concordian militia]] groups at a [[mass driver]] station, hoping that the militias would welcome them. On this same day, Eklund sent a communique to [[Commander]] [[Renna]] summarizing these events and requesting information on activity reported at the [[Lethbridge Combat Fields|combat fields]] outside of [[Lethbridge]] the day prior.{{Ref/Site|Id=S2StoryHub|URL=https://www.halowaypoint.com/halo-infinite|Site=Halo Waypoint|Page=Halo Infinite|D=06|M=05|Y=2022|LocalArchive=Halo Infinite Story & Intel|Detail=Defunct page; available on linked archive only}}{{Ref/Site|Id=S2Intel|URL=https://www.halowaypoint.com/news/halo-infinite-lone-wolves-intel|Site=Halo Waypoint|Page=Halo Infinite - Lone Wolves Intel|D=03|M=11|Y=2022|LocalArchive=Halo Infinite Story & Intel}}

===Camber===
During the [[Created conflict]], between [[2559]] and [[2560]], Spartans Eklund and Dinh were deployed to one of several [[Banished]] shipbreaking yards in the [[Chiltift Basin]] on [[Camber]].{{Ref/Reuse|CFLore}}{{Ref/Reuse|S2StoryHub}}{{Ref/Reuse|S2Intel}} This particular facility was a former UNSC fleet depot housing the hull of [[FFG-201 (Breaker)|FFG-201]] and taken under Banished control.{{Ref/Reuse|CFLore}} Eklund and Dinh began scouting out the location, using intermittent dust storms as cover. At some point, the two Spartans spilt up and Eklund began to believe that there was something more going on at the shipbreaking facility.{{Ref/Reuse|S2StoryHub}}{{Ref/Reuse|S2Intel}} After watching the operation for two days, both Spartans discovered [[Iratus]], the first Banished AI in existence, alongside an archive detailing the entirety of Banished operations on the moon. Eklund and Dinh were discovered by Banished forces and managed to hijack an [[Eklon'Dal Workshop Phantom]], but Iratus followed them into their hijacked Phantom, threatening their escape. To have a chance to escape, Dinh allowed Iratus to infect his [[neural interface]], leaving him in a comatose state.{{Ref/Game|Id=LW|HI|Season 02: Lone Wolves}}
