Biography
Between November 2552 and February 2553, based on the flow of time in normal space, Prone to Drift and four other Huragok encountered Lucy-B091 inside the Sharpened Shield. After she accidentally killed one of his companions, she showed her SPI helmet to Prone to Drift. The Huragok quickly took interest in the helmet, and began disassembling and reassembling it. After the Huragok was finished, she noticed that the modifications had caused her HUD to display two Forerunner symbols, one of which either modified the audio channels or the physical acoustics of the helmet.[2] When Lucy tried to activate the second, nothing happened; she later assumed it had to do with the helmet's microphone. After several attempts at contact, Prone to Drift had Lucy follow it and the other Huragok. Eventually they stopped again, and made several more attempts at contact. Failing this, Prone to Drift was able to write its name on a console display and the two managed to begin communicating with one another. After attempting to "repair" Lucy's inability to speak and failing, Prone to Drift and the other Huragok led her to the other human survivors.
After reuniting Lucy with her comrades, Prone was convinced to allow additional UNSC personnel to enter the Sharpened Shield. In order to ensure he artifacts the humans removed were safeguarded, but unable to leave the shield world himself, Prone and the other Huragok built three more Huragok, Perfect Density, Tends To List and Leaks Repaired, for this purpose.
