On Zeta Halo, Spark inserted the coordinate key into the installation's [[Cartographer#Installation 07|Cartographer]] with Rion adding her touch as a Reclaimer. The Cartographer displayed a [[star map]] pointing to a location on [[New Carthage]] before ejecting the key and a second component which Rion combined together. A [[slipspace portal]] was suddenly opened by the [[Precept]]{{Ref/Reuse|Id=PoL35}} using a [[personal slipspace unit]]{{Ref/Novel|PoL|19}} and pulled Rion through, although Spark managed to keep hold of the coordinate key.{{Ref/Novel|Id=PoL16|PoL|Chapter=16}} When [[Ram Chalva]] inserted the coordinate key into a terminal at [[New Carthage Forerunner Way Station|the way station]] that the map had pointed to, it released a third component to the key. When the pieces of the coordinate key were put together, it pointed to [[Erebus VII]] with no spots for a fourth piece.{{Ref/Novel|PoL|Chapter=28}}

On Erebus VII, Spark placed the key into a terminal and it summoned a [[Monitor]] known as the Precept who revealed that he had initiated the slipspace portal after sensing that Rion was a Reclaimer and summoned her to Erebus VII to judge her through Rion's experiences on the planet with the ''[[Eiyaa-Mahtuhaa]]''. After studying Spark, the Precept decided that he could proceed and tested Rion's [[geas|biological memory]]. Satisfied, the Precept returned the coordinate key to Spark and Rion with coordinates and access permissions to [[Bastion]] for the two of them alone.{{Ref/Novel|Id=PoL35|PoL|Chapter=35}}

On Bastion, the Librarian's secret laboratory, Rion used the coordinate key to launch the ''[[Eden (spaceship)|Eden]]'' alongside a hard light key used by [[Keeper-of-Tools]]. Keeper told Spark that the key was meant to be brought to Bastion by the Librarian herself and that Rion's involvement was a last resort by the Librarian to enact her plans. Keeper revealed that the key, along with leading its users to Bastion, allowed unrestricted access to and control over Bastion and its caretakers.{{Ref/Novel|PoL|Chapter=41}} After ''Eden's'' departure, Spark used the coordinate key to assume control of Bastion as its new caretaker as Keeper had wanted.{{Ref/Novel|PoL|Chapter=42}}
