In [[2559#October|October 2559]], Banished forces [[Raid on Anodyne Spirit|raided]] the ''[[Anodyne Spirit]]'' for the shards of the [[Menachite Forerunner crystal]] recovered from [[Reach]] before Atriox managed to send a message to [[War Chief]] [[Escharum]] in the Milky Way ordering him to locate the [[Menachite portal complex|Portal Under the Mountain]] on Reach.<ref>''[[Sacrifice]]''</ref> Atriox's stated intention was to open a slipspace portal between the Ark and Reach in order to bring more Banished reinforcements to the Ark. At the same time, [[Blue Team]] visits Reach on [[Operation: WOLFE|a mission]] of their own and inadvertently lead the Banished and their allies the [[Keepers of the One Freedom]], [[Legion of the Corpse-Moon]] and the [[Ravaged Tusks]] to the portal complex. Using one of the [[Ferret]]s, secretly undercover in the Keepers, as a [[Reclaimer]], the Keepers were able to open the portal which Atriox used the crystal shards to connect to the Ark. Atriox and several of his top officers flew through the slipspace portal to Reach in a [[Banished Lich]], but Atriox chose to depart in Escharum's [[intrusion corvette]] in favor of a more important mission, leaving behind thousands of Banished forces to continue to hold the Ark in his absence rather than returning to the Ark with reinforcements.

After Atriox's arrival on Reach, his Lich was stolen by [[Castor]] and the fanatical Keepers of the One Freedom who intended to use the Ark to fire the [[Halo Array]] and begin the Great Journey. Despite Atriox's warnings of the Banished still on the Ark to stop them, the Keepers nevertheless traveled to the Ark through the portal, accompanied by the Ferrets who remained undercover in their ranks. Shortly thereafter, the slipspace portal closed, preventing further travel to or from the Ark through it.<ref name="SoR">''[[Halo: Shadows of Reach]]''</ref>
