Sometime after Atriox first rebelled from the Covenant, Chieftain Minas had been tasked by the [[High Council]] with hunting down and destroying the Banished, and bringing the rogue Jiralhanae to justice. Despite failing to see the wisdom in wasting time and resources searching for such an insignificant rebelling faction, Minas followed the orders of the [[councilor]]s without question. He would lead a [[legion]] in a protracted campaign, chasing the Banished as they raided world after world. Eventually, Minas came face-to-face with Atriox and had a brief opportunity to strike a fatal blow to both the [[warmaster]] himself and the rebellion that he led.{{Ref/Reuse|Sacrifice}} | Sometime after [[Atriox]] first rebelled from the Covenant, Chieftain Minas had been tasked by the [[High Council]] with hunting down and destroying the [[Banished]], and bringing the rogue Jiralhanae to justice.

It is a cost that no one can escape, so someone might as well die for something that they truly believe in—something that they are willing to give their life for. At that moment, Minas decided that he could no longer endure the lies and hypocrisy that he sensed from the [[Prophet]]s and the High Council. He resolved to die on his own terms. And so, Minas enlisted with the very faction he was sent to destroy.{{Ref/Reuse|Sacrifice}} | However, as Minas prepared to deliver the death blow, Atriox told him that everyone must die for something.
