Escharum fulfilled part of Atriox's will by awakening the [[Harbinger]], albeit using her for the reformation of Installation 07.

During [[2560#May|May 2560]], the Banished ship ''[[Ghost of Gbraakon]]'' was destroyed by [[John-117]], who had survived in space and been rescued by [[Echo 216]]. Escharum was invigorated by his survival and welcomed him to a battle on his ring world. The Banished bases [[Outpost Tremonius (location)|Outpost Tremonius]], [[Tower]], [[Annex Ridge (location)|Annex Ridge]], [[Armory of Reckoning (location)|Armory of Reckoning]], [[Forge of Teash (location)|Forge of Teash]], [[Horn of Abolition (location)|Horn of Abolition]], [[Ransom Keep (location)|Ransom Keep]], [[Redoubt of Sundering (location)|Redoubt of Sundering]] and [[Riven Gate (location)|Riven Gate]] all fell to John-117 and the [[Marine]]s he freed during the conflict. All high value members situated around the floating islands, many of which served as [[Bloodstars#Banished|Bloodstars]], were assassinated by the Spartan-II, along with the [[Hand of Atriox]] who were sent to kill him. | During [[2560#May|May 2560]], the Banished ship ''[[Ghost of Gbraakon]]'' was destroyed by [[John-117]], who had survived in space and been rescued by ''[[Echo 216]]''.

Seeking a legendary battle or a glorious death with his illness progressing, Escharum sent [[Blademaster]] [[Jega 'Rdomnai]] to kidnap Echo 216 to lure out the Spartan. Taking the bait, John-117 arrived for [[Battle of the House of Reckoning|the final showdown]] at the [[House of Reckoning (location)|House of Reckoning]]. Waves of Banished fought against John-117, only to be struck down. Jega 'Rdomnai fought him as well and was defeated, although it was left unclear if he survived the battle or not. Escharum revealed himself to the Spartan in the room where Echo 216 was being held and a duel took place. Escharum and John-117 took shots at each other until the War Chief resorted to using the room to power a dome-shaped shield to protect himself. The Spartan deactivated the shield and continued to attack, resulting in Escharum pulling out his [[gravity axe]] for an even closer battle. After sustaining enough damage Escharum collapsed and told the Spartan that his death would inspire others before dying in his enemy's arms. | Seeking a legendary battle or a glorious death with his illness progressing, Escharum sent [[Blademaster]] [[Jega 'Rdomnai]] to kidnap Echo 216 to lure out the Spartan.
