The Galaxy moved to [[Atreus (Clan System)|Atreus]] in early [[3074]] under the command of [[saKhan]] [[Constans Cluff]]. Here they fought and absorbed the remains of [[Kindraa Faraday-Tanaga]], that totaled less than two Clusters worth of warriors at that time.

Their plans on Tokasha were halted by the arrival of [[ilKhan]] [[Brett Andrews]] and a [[Clan Steel Viper]] task force in September 3074 who declared a Trial of Possession for the entire planet. All three Spirit Galaxies were bid in defense. Zeta was the first to fall, it had become trapped in the Koche Mountains near a battle armor complex. Using a combination of combat drops and air strikes the Adders destroyed all six Clusters of the Galaxy.<ref name=wor139>''The Wars of Reaving'', p. 139</ref>
