During the last day of the Trial, Klaidessa faced a Falcon [[Jade Hawk]], which attempted to launch another DOA attack. Luckily for her, the Amarok was designed to counter them, and she defeated it. In the last stages of the battle, she was threatened by a Falcon's ''Dire Wolf'', but Traver and his ''Ares'', though heavily damaged, rammed it, downing it and saving the Colonel. Consequently, their 'Mech was downed too, and Traver's gunner died.<ref>''Hour of the Wolf'', ch. 33-36</ref>
