Finally, an incredulous Veridity revealed that the Banished had obtained access to the ring's local defenses from the Conspectus network, had no plans to leave and had awakened the Harbinger. This caught the monitor's attention and Kovan revealed that the Banished had brought the Harbinger's [[cylix]] to the surface, used [[Lucas Browning|a human prisoner]] to release her and the Banished and the Harbinger seemed to be working together. This caused Despondent Pyre to act, scanning Kovan and Horvath and releasing the submonitors from their imposed contemplation, giving them orders and sending the submonitors flying in different directions. With Despondent Pyre agreeing that the Harbinger had to be stopped at all costs, Veridity implored the monitor to give her access to the beacon towers so that the humans could call for reinforcements as they needed to rid Zeta Halo of the Harbinger and the Banished. Despondent Pyre revealed that they had lost control of the beacon towers as a result of Cortana's actions and she began working on a security override to bring one of the towers back online, rejecting Kovan's offer of the data chip with the stolen data that Stone had recovered. Despondent Pyre provided the boat crew with a data key that, when inserted into the central plinth of one of the beacon towers, would bring it back online and instruct the tower to send a supraluminal message into human-occupied space with Installation 07's current galactic coordinates and the site's pertinent data. Pleased, Veridity began to lead the boat crew out of the Conservatory and to the nearest beacon tower. However, Despondent Pyre seized hold of the submonitor with a yellow beam, explaining that they had work to do. Horvath and Veridity argued that she was their only quick way out of the facility, but Despondent Pyre was unwilling to expend any of the installation's executor staff to assist them if Veridity was right about the Harbinger. Instead, the monitor provided Kovan with a path out of the Conservatory and pulled the submonitor back to the Cradle.{{Ref/Novel|RP|34}} | Finally, an incredulous Veridity revealed that the Banished had obtained access to the ring's local defenses from the Conspectus network, had no plans to leave and had awakened the Harbinger.

On May 14, as the surviving members of the boat crew made a last stand against dozens of Banished after sending their message, Adjutant Veridity suddenly came to their rescue and teleported the survivors to safety somewhere on the ring, having somehow escaped from Despondent Pyre's reach. Veridity vanished again afterwards, presumably either back in the Cradle arguing with Despondent Pyre about what their next move should be or out there going rogue and helping to thwart the Banished. | On May 14, as the surviving members of the boat crew made a last stand against dozens of Banished after sending their message, Adjutant Veridity suddenly came to their rescue and teleported the survivors to safety somewhere on the ring, having somehow escaped from Despondent Pyre's reach.
