Believing the loss of the carrier to be his own fault, 'Volir reasoned that his failures lie in his sole interest in maintaining the safety of his crew and possessions. With many of his crew dead and stranded on the Ark, 'Volir began to believe that his crew now encompassed all within the Banished - not just the Sangheili serving aboard his warship, and that his failures were a penance for his prior attitude.{{Ref/Site|Id=CFPhoenixBlog|URL=https://www.halowaypoint.com/news/canon-fodder-phoenix-blog|Site=Halo Waypoint|Page=Canon Fodder - Phoenix Blog|D=24|M=02|Y=2023|LocalArchive=Phoenix Logs#Waypoint logs}} With renewed faith and determination in the cause of the Banished,{{Ref/Reuse|CFPhoenixBlog}} Let 'Volir was given yet another chance to redeem himself on Installation 00. 'Volir organized all his military assets in a desperate last ditched effort to push back the crew of the {{UNSCShip|Spirit of Fire}} on the Ark. His forces managed to push the UNSC far back enough to secure the site of a portal. This rare success put 'Volir back in the favor of the warmaster Atriox, who would use the portal to [[Menachite portal complex|return]] to the [[Milky Way]] by using shards of [[Menachite Forerunner crystal|a slipspace crystal]] that were secured during [[Minas]] and [[Zeretus]]' [[Raid on Anodyne Spirit|raid]] on the ''[[Anodyne Spirit]]''.{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22p457}} | ||
Having atoned for his failures, 'Volir was placed in command of all Banished forces on the Ark by Atriox during the interim, due to Atriox's [[Operation: WOLFE|departure]] from the installation back to [[Reach]]. This assignment was much to the dismay of [[Voridus]] and the other Jiralhanae clan leaders on the Ark.{{Ref/Novel|Id=DW2|HDW|Chapter=2}}{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22p457}} | Having atoned for his failures, 'Volir was placed in command of all Banished forces on the Ark by Atriox during the interim, due to Atriox's [[Operation: WOLFE|departure]] from the installation back to [[Reach]].

Despite this, 'Volir and his crew declined the Banished Brutes' invitation to celebrate the destruction of the human's [[Henry Lamb Research Outpost|outpost]] on the Ark.{{Ref/Reuse|PLSacrifice}} When approached by [[Atriox]] to join the [[Banished]] in exchange for fuel and supplies, 'Volir reluctantly agreed as he felt that there was no other option. He was deeply uncomfortable with serving under Atriox, as he was used to being above the [[Jiralhanae]] in the Covenant's society. Atriox often teases 'Volir about the name of his carrier, ''Enduring Conviction'', as he believes that it is particularly ill-suited for a mercenary [[shipmaster]].{{Ref/Reuse|gamespot}} | Despite this, 'Volir and his crew declined the Banished Brutes' invitation to celebrate the destruction of the human's [[Henry Lamb Research Outpost|outpost]] on the Ark.{{Ref/Reuse|PLSacrifice}} When approached by [[Atriox]] to join the [[Banished]] in exchange for fuel and supplies, 'Volir reluctantly agreed as he felt that there was no other option.

Rather than stepping back, he took the destruction of ''Enduring Conviction'' as a moment to realise that his "crew" had now expanded to encompass all within the Banished. Subsequently, this renewed his faith not in the [[Forerunners]] or the [[Great Journey]], but in the might of the Banished.{{Ref/Reuse|CFPhoenixBlog}} | ||
