When [[Malvina Hazen]] attacked [[Arc-Royal]] in September [[3146]], the First Wolf Legion were present on that world. After it became obvious that the Jade Falcons would emerge victorious, the Legion was tasked with fighting a delaying action to buy enough time for the rest of Clan Wolf-in-Exile to escape. Though only three warriors in the unit survived to be taken as bondsmen, they were successful in their final mission.<ref>''Shattered Fortress'', p. 26</ref> <ref>''Shattered Fortress'', p. 108</ref>
