−	As of [[3061]] the ''[[Lola III]]''-class destroyer '''''Vision of Terra''''' was a [[WarShip]] within the [[Clan Snow Raven]] [[Clan Snow Raven Touman|''touman'']] and was serving as the CSR ''Vision of Terra'', one of five WarShips that made up the [[Snow Raven Assault Star (Clan Snow Raven)|Snow Raven Assault Star]].<ref name="FM:WCp132">''Field Manual: Warden Clans'', p. 132, "Snow Raven Assault Star"</ref>	+	As at [[3061]] the ''[[Lola III]]''-class destroyer '''''Vision of Terra''''' was a [[WarShip]] within the [[Clan Snow Raven]] [[Clan Snow Raven Touman|''touman'']] and was serving as the CSR ''Vision of Terra'', one of five WarShips that made up the [[Snow Raven Assault Star (Clan Snow Raven)|Snow Raven Assault Star]].<ref name="FM:WCp132">''Field Manual: Warden Clans'', p. 132, "Snow Raven Assault Star"</ref>
−	On the 20th of September [[3070]]  [[Clan Steel Viper]] introduced the Clans in the Homeworlds to their new flagship, the ''[[Leviathan Prime]]''-class battleship [[Perigard Zalman (Individual Leviathan-class WarShip)|CSV ''Perigard Zalman'']]. The Steel Vipers did so by striking at [[Clan Diamond Shark]]'s [[Black Diamond Naval Star (Clan Diamond Shark)|Black Diamond Naval Star]] above [[Strana Mechty]]; the ''Perigard Zalman'' quickly destroyed the ''[[Carrack]]''-class transport [[Bloodletter|CDS ''Bloodletter'']] and the ''[[Lola III]]''-class destroyer [[Predator (Individual Lola III-class WarShip)|CDS ''Predator'']] in the first pass alone, and as the Diamond Shark civilian vessels frantically jumped out of the Strana Mechty system the ''Perigard Zalman'' continued its attack, destroying two more Diamond Shark WarShips before the last Diamond Shark WarShip, the ''[[Fredasa (WarShip class)|Fredasa]]''-class corvette [[Swift Strike (Individual Fredasa-class WarShip)|CDS ''Swift Strike'']], managed to jump out of the system.<ref name="WORp51">''The Wars of Reaving'', p. 51, "Closing the Net"</ref>	+	On the 20th of September [[3070]]  [[Clan Steel Viper]] introduced the Clans in the Homeworlds to their new flagship, the ''[[Leviathan Prime]]''-class battleship [[Perigard Zalman (Vessel)|CSV ''Perigard Zalman'']].

−	Warned by the Diamond Sharks about the existence of the ''Perigard Zalman'', the Snow Ravens gathered the bulk of their remaining Homeworld naval assets at [[Lum]], where they were gathering a huge convoy of vessels together, destined for the Snow Raven holdings in the [[Outworlds Alliance]]. The Snow Ravens gathered together the remains of both the [[Brim Naval Assault Star (Clan Snow Raven)|Brim Naval Assault Star]] and the [[Circe Battle Star (Clan Snow Raven)|Circe Battle Star]], stripping the convoy of its escort vessels. Included in this impromptu naval flotilla was the ''Vision of Terra''.<ref name="WORp52+">''The Wars of Reaving'', p. 52-53, "Closing the Net"</ref>	+	Warned by the Diamond Sharks about the existence of the ''Perigard Zalman'', the Snow Ravens gathered the bulk of their remaining Homeworld naval assets at [[Lum]], where they were gathering a huge convoy of vessels together, destined for the Snow Raven holdings in the [[Outworlds Alliance]].

−	The Steel Vipers gathered together the remainder of their Naval Reserve and struck at Lum within days of their assault on the Diamond Sharks; when [[saKhan]] Hoskins of the Steel Vipers declared his ''[[batchall]]'' for the entire system, the Ravens declared all they had to defend. The resulting battle pitched three naval stars on each side against each other, making the naval engagement far larger than that at Lum in [[3069]]. While the Snow Raven fleet was by far the more experienced, their level of skill was counterbalanced by the sheer firepower brought to the battle by the ''Perigard Zalman'' and her escorts.

−	By the time the surviving Snow Raven vessels jumped out of the system, the ''[[Potemkin]]''-class cruisers [[Rook (Individual Potemkin-class WarShip)|CSR ''Rook'']] and [[Snowflake|CSR ''Snowflake'']] and the ''Vision of Terra'' had effectively been destroyed, although a covert Watch team from the Diamond Sharks would salvage the ''Snowflake'' several years later with assistance from the Snow Ravens. The Steel Vipers immediately landed ground forces on Lum, but faced little organized resistance and discovered that the Snow Ravens had been in the midst of a mass evacuation of their holdings, with large quantities of supplies and matériel partially loaded onto [[DropShip]]s at the two main DropPorts.
