In exchange for their unquestioning loyalty, the Banished would supply the crew and fuel the ''Enduring Conviction'' indefinitely. Certain [[Office of Naval Intelligence]] operatives who had analyzed the ship's shift of allegiance from a distance, surmised that Atriox would lay low for a while after securing such a prize, as he would have painted a giant target on himself in doing so.{{Ref/Reuse|PL}} 'Volir his crew eventually reemerged, notably raiding a human settlement on the planet [[Ansket IV]],<ref name="ROA4">''[[Halo: Rise of Atriox]]'', ''[[Halo: Rise of Atriox Issue 4|Issue 4]]''</ref> and making a name for themselves as members of the Banished. 'Volir later contacted a Jiralhanae [[Jiralhanae Chieftain|warlord]] named [[Jovus]] in attempts to convince him to join the Banished.

Let 'Volir is a skilled commander, and believes that a captain should sacrifice everything just to keep his crew alive.

With the Covenant's demise, 'Volir fosters animosity towards virtually all of the fallen empire's [[Covenant remnants|successor states]].
