During [[Operation: WOLFE]], the Ferrets aid the Keepers and the [[Banished]] in their search for the [[Menachite portal complex]].<ref>''[[Halo: Shadows of Reach]]''</ref> Near the end of the mission, [[Veta Lopis]] unexpectedly appears to help [[Blue Team]], surprising [[Fred-104]] as the Ferrets have been [[Missing in action]] for more than two years and presumed dead. Lopis hands Fred a message capsule before departing again. After the Keepers locate the portal controls, one of the Ferrets [[Reclaimer|activates]] it, opening a portal to [[Installation 00|the Ark]] that Atriox arrives through in a [[Banished Lich]]. When [[Blademaster]] [[Inslaan 'Gadogai]] threatens Castor, the Ferrets train their weapons on him and help Castor force him to stand down. The Keepers, joined by 'Gadogai, then board the Lich and pass through the portal to the Ark.{{Ref/Novel|Id=Chapter 21|HSoR|Chapter=21}}
During [[Operation: WOLFE]], the Ferrets aid the Keepers and the [[Banished]] in their search for the [[Menachite portal complex]]{{Ref/Novel|SoR}} while secretly intending to self-extract and disappear into [[Reach]]'s glasslands after learning of [[Atriox]]'s intentions. However, the Ferrets eavesdropping intercepts reveal that [[Castor]] intends to go to the Ark to initiate the Great Journey and they cancel their plans and to instead remain with the Keepers until they have been destroyed. [[Veta Lopis]]' hope is that the arrival of [[Blue Team]] and the UNSC could aid that goal, but they are unable to make contact until it is already too late to stop the Keepers.{{Ref/Reuse|DW1}} Near the end of the operation, Lopis unexpectedly appears to [[Fred-104]], surprising him as the Ferrets have been [[Missing in action]] for more than two years and presumed dead.

Upon returning to the {{UNSCShip|Infinity}}, Fred gives Lopis' message to Captain [[Veronica Dare]] and reports that the Ferrets are following the [[Keepers of the One Freedom]] through the slipspace portal over Reach to the Ark to initiate the [[Great Journey]] and Atriox's return is expected. Dare admits that its incredible that the Ferrets are still out there and Fred questions if she really didn't know. Dare states that even when ONI was whole, she wasn't read into every operation and Ferret operations were highly compartmentalized. Dare promises to pass along anything that she hears about the team and allows Fred to keep the top third of the message which is implied to be personal in nature.{{Ref/Novel|Id=Epilogue|HSoR|Chapter=Epilogue}}
