===Return from the Ark===
===Return from the Ark===
In [[2559#October|October 2559]], the [[Keepers of the One Freedom]] activated a [[Slipspace portal]] on [[Reach]] while Atriox used the remnants of the [[Menachite Forerunner crystal]] to link the portals, allowing him to return to the Milky Way on a [[Eklon'Dal Workshop Lich]]. While Castor and his Keepers forces, including an undercover [[Veta Lopis]] and her [[Ferret]]s, traveled through the same portal aiming to activate the Halos and begin the Great Journey, Atriox intended to attend to a greater purpose. This greater purpose was seeking out the Endless, also known as the [[Xalanyn]].{{Ref/Book|Id=enc22p423|Enc22|Page=423}} Rather than return to the Ark with reinforcements, Atriox was extracted by [[Escharum]] in an [[Intrusion corvette]]. He left behind thousands of Banished troops to hold the Forerunner installation in his absence. [[Fred-104]] and Lopis had sent ONI a message stating that Atriox's return was expected.{{Ref/Novel|Id=Chapter 21|HSoR|Chapter=21}}{{Ref/Novel|Id=Epilogue|HSoR|Chapter=Epilogue}}

===Doisac's destruction and search for the trikala===

Atriox's Banished unified many Jiralhanae clans across [[Doisac]] and its moons,{{Ref/Book|Id=Enc22p446|Enc22|Page=446}} though not all clans. Many clans, including those on [[Warial]], continued to resist the Banished.{{Ref/Book|Id=Enc22p447|Enc22|Page=447}} As the Jiralhanae infighting persisted, the Banished defended themselves against the rogue [[AI]] [[Cortana]] and her [[Created]]. Atriox's defiance of her rule led to the destruction of the Jiralhanae homeworld of Doisac, pitting the Warmaster against Cortana to which he responded in kind by seeking out a weapon to defeat her.

Atriox pursued [[Cortana]] in efforts to gain control of Zeta Halo and its [[Xalanyn]] hidden within the ring, learning of them during his time on the Ark. In December 2559, Atriox led a Banished fleet to ambush the {{UNSCShip|Infinity}} sparking the [[Battle over Installation 07]]. During the battle, he personally boarded the ship in search for [[The Weapon]]{{Ref/Level|Game=HI|Level=The Sequence|Quote=Atriox came for you. He attacked the Infinity. We fought.

After emerging victorious in the space battle, Atriox approached the now locked down Cortana on the surface of Zeta Halo to negotiate her terms of surrender. He openly mocked Cortana, stating her attack on the Banished is what led to the Master Chief's apparent death and that she must understand the consequences of her actions.{{Ref/Mag|Game Informer|341|page 43}} Cortana destroyed a portion of the ring around the [[Silent Auditorium]] to stop him from having accessing its secret Xalanyn and Atriox was thought to be dead from the explosion.
