Nigel's hopes for a fresh start were dashed as old prejudices against Rim Worlders were revived, and so he chose to follow [[Nicholas Kerensky]] during the [[Second Exodus]] to [[Strana Mechty]]. The younger Kerensky cared more for Nigel's abilities and loyalty than for his past heritage, and Nigel worked to repay this trust in full.<ref name=HOK118>''Historical: Operation Klondike'', p. 118 - "Herve and Nigel Polczyk Profile"</ref>

==Khan of Clan Burrock==
When the [[Clans]] were formed, Nigel and Herve's leadership skills and ability to work as a seamless whole led Kerensky to assign them as joint Khans of the newly-created Clan Burrock.<ref name=HOK118>''Historical: Operation Klondike'', p. 118 - "Herve and Nigel Polczyk Profile"</ref> During [[Operation Klondike]] Nigel ably led his Clan during the campaign on [[Dagda (Clan System)|Dagda]], and while Kerensky ultimately decided that Clans [[Clan Wolf|Wolf]] and [[Clan Jade Falcon|Jade Falcon]] would carry out the final operation on that world, Clan Burrock had nonetheless lived up to his expectations, the only one of the Clans initially assigned to Dagda which had done so.<ref>''Historical: Operation Klondike'', p. 86</ref>
