Installation 07
On December 12, 2559, Spartan Vedrana Makovich was onboard a spacecraft escorting UNSC Infinity when it was ambushed by Banished forces upon arrival at Installation 07. As the Infinity fell to the Banished assault, Makovich and her teammate Henri Malik engaged Banshees that were attacking the lifeboats launching from the Infinity.TEMPLATE ERROR: Template using invalid/disallowed fields: "sectionlinktext", "section"[2]
On December 15, Makovich, now on the surface of the ring, came across the wreckage of UNSC Mortal Reverie, and established the crash site as a UNSC base of operations, gathering other UNSC forces at the site.TEMPLATE ERROR: Template using invalid/disallowed fields: "sectionlinktext", "section"[3] She contacted Spartan Hudson Griffin,[3] and was joined by other Spartans.
On January 23, 2560, Spartan Hudson Griffin, the de facto leader at the crash site, led Spartans Panago, Malik, and Sarkar in an assassination mission on the Banished War Chief Escharum.TEMPLATE ERROR: Template using invalid/disallowed fields: "sectionlinktext", "section"[4] Makovich voiced her disbelief at the team being chosen by drawing straws,TEMPLATE ERROR: Template using invalid/disallowed fields: "sectionlinktext", "section"[5] but the mission proceeded at Griffin's command.[4] However, the assassination on Escharum failed. Griffin sent an encrypted message to the Reverie on January 31 before he was captured and handed over to Chak 'Lok for torture. In his message, Griffin warned the Reverie of an impending Banished assault.TEMPLATE ERROR: Template using invalid/disallowed fields: "sectionlinktext", "section"[6] Under the combined leadership of Bertold Vettel and counsel of Makovich, the UNSC forces at the Reverie braced for the Banished's attack.[1] Despite the preparations, the Banished assault under Chieftain Tremonius forced the UNSC forces to retreat from the Reverie on February 2.TEMPLATE ERROR: Template using invalid/disallowed fields: "sectionlinktext", "section"[7] The UNSC forces scattered into the valley, but as per Rubicon protocol, Makovich and Vettel continued to run guerilla ops against the Banished to keep the ring out of their control.TEMPLATE ERROR: Template using invalid/disallowed fields: "sectionlinktext", "section"[8]
On April 24, after being told of increased Banished activity near the Reverie by Spartan Bonita Stone,TEMPLATE ERROR: Template using invalid/disallowed fields: "sectionlinktext", "section"[9] Makovich and Spartan Theodore Sorel observed a Banished excavation site south of the Reverie.TEMPLATE ERROR: Template using invalid/disallowed fields: "sectionlinktext", "section"[10] The two correctly deduced that Escharum was searching for the Monitor of the installation, 117649 Despondent Pyre, and spent the next few weeks stalling the Banished's excavation efforts.[10]
When the Banished's excavation completed on May 15, Makovich and Sorel infiltrated the Conservatory.TEMPLATE ERROR: Template using invalid/disallowed fields: "sectionlinktext", "section"[11] Inside, the two was ambushed by the Sangheili Jega 'Rdomnai, with Sorel being wounded by 'Rdomnai's surprise attack. Makovich urged Sorel to run ahead to locate the monitor, while she would fend off 'Rdomnai.TEMPLATE ERROR: Template using invalid/disallowed fields: "sectionlinktext", "section"[12] Makovich died in the following duel against the Sangheili,[13] while Sorel made a last stand deeper inside the facility, being killed by the Jiralhanae brothers Tovarus and Hyperius.TEMPLATE ERROR: Template using invalid/disallowed fields: "sectionlinktext", "section"[14] Makovich's body remained inside the Conservatory, and was found on May 28 by Master Chief Petty Officer John-117, who collected her drop wall module.[13]

During the Battle for Installation 07, Spartan Makovich wore the MJOLNIR [GEN3] armor, employing the ZVEZDA-class helmet and the UA/Agathius shoulder pads. She carried a drop wall module, which was inherited by John-117.[13]
