In late [[3069]] and early [[3070]], [[Clan Blood Spirit]] forces on [[York (Clan System)|York]] managed to push the Star Adder forces on the planet back to just a single enclave, having been buoyed by successes - and the ''[[isorla]]'' claimed as a result - achieved by elements of the Blood Spirit ''[[touman]]'' elsewhere. The Blood Spirits held off attacking this last enclave in large part due to the presence of the ''Stellar Serpent'' in orbit, as they believed that attacking further would lead to the Star Adders resorting to orbital bombardment as a part of their defense.<ref name="WORp42">''The Wars of Reaving'', p. 42: "Retribution"</ref>

In late [[3074]], the ''Stellar Serpent'' and two other Star Adder WarShips, the ''[[Sovetskii Soyuz]]''-class heavy cruiser [[Divine Conquest|CSA ''Divine Conquest'']] and the ''[[York (WarShip class)|York]]''-class destroyer [[Exodus Ranger|CSA ''Exodus Ranger'']], were assembled along with no less than seven [[Galaxy|Galaxies]] of Star Adder forces - [[Alpha Galaxy (Clan Star Adder)|Alpha]], [[Gamma Galaxy (Clan Star Adder)|Gamma]], [[Delta Galaxy (Clan Star Adder)|Delta]], [[Epsilon Galaxy (Clan Star Adder)|Epsilon]], [[Sigma Galaxy (Clan Star Adder)|Sigma]], [[Tau Provisional Galaxy (Clan Star Adder)|Tau]] and [[Xi Provisional Galaxy (Clan Star Adder)|Xi]] - into a task force under the personal command of Khan [[Stanislov N'Buta]] for a strike at the [[Tanis]] system. The Star Adder Watch had identified that something was seriously wrong in the Tanite worlds, and N'Buta was determined to regain control of the system. Invoking a previous agreement with [[Clan Cloud Cobra]], the Star Adder [[saKhan]] persuaded [[saKhan]] [[Hannibal Banacek]] of the Cloud Cobras to join the task force, accompanied by another ''York''-class ship, the [[Brimstone (Individual York-class WarShip)|CCS ''Brimstone'']], and the ''[[Fredasa (WarShip class)|Fredasa]]''-class corvette [[Hell Fury|CCS ''Hell Fury'']].<ref name="WORp144">''The Wars of Reaving'', p. 144: "Adder's Assault"</ref>

The task force arrived in the Tanis system on the 17th of December and the ''Stellar Serpent'', ''Divine Conquest'' and ''Hell Fury'' quickly attacked and defeated the two defending Burrock WarShips, the ''[[Mako]]''-class corvette [[Ingrid Bucharev|CBS ''Ingrid Bucharev'']] and the ''[[McKenna (WarShip class)|McKenna]]''-class battleship [[Second Coming|CBS ''Second Coming'']], securing lanes for the various Galaxies to begin making planetfall. The ''Exodus Ranger'' and the ''Brimstone'' were responsible for escorting Alpha, Sigma, Xi and Tau Galaxies to Alexandra, where the defending Tanite,  Burrock and [[Society]] forces launched ferocious defensive surface-to-atmosphere fire that saw half of Xi Galaxy destroyed before it could make planetfall.<ref name="WORp144"/>

When the Burrock and Tanite forces were finally vanquished, with their military forces killed or executed, every major city and infrastructure site destroyed and every civilian the Star Adders could find dead, the ''Stellar Serpent'' was left in the Tanis system to monitor for future activity.<ref name="WORp144"/>
