To Schmitt's intense frustration [[saKhan]] Kabrinski was completely unwilling to negotiate; unknown to the Blood Spirits, the Ghost Bears were in the final stages of evacuating the small enclave in preparation for moving it to the [[Ghost Bear Dominion]] in the [[Inner Sphere]]. Attempting to force the issue, Schmitt brought the ''Rocinante'' into a close orbit above Arcadia and shelled one of the Snow Peak Mountains. Rather than forcing Kabrinski to negotiate, this instead caused the Ghost Bear saKhan to shut off all communication with Schmitt, although not without insulting Schmitt first. Enraged, Schmitt ordered the ''Stooping Kite'' to the nearby jump point with orders to prevent the nearest Ghost Bear vessel from departing. That vessel was the ''[[Star Lord (JumpShip class)|Star Lord]]''-class [[JumpShip]] [[Alshain Sunset|CGB ''Alshain Sunset'']], however the JumpShip refused and the ''Stooping Kite'' destroyed it. The reaction from the Ghost Bears was to send every spaceworthy ship against the ''Rocinante'', and within seconds the Blood Spirit flagship had been torn apart, Khan Schmitt barely survived.<ref name="WORp83">''The Wars of Reaving'', p. 83</ref> − − In [[3073]] the Galaxy arrived on [[Niles (Clan System)|Niles]] here they engaged forces of [[Clan Coyote]] gaining a good deal of supplies, but also absorbed a Trinary of [[Clan Hell's Horses]] warriors and the last remnant of [[Kindraa Mattila-Carrol]] the [[202nd Firebrand (Clan Fire Mandrill)|202nd Firebrand Cluster]] in to the Clan.<ref name=wor133>''The Wars of Reaving'', p. 133</ref> − − In [[3075]] the Galaxy dropped on to [[Circe]] as part of the multi-Clan force of the [[Clan Steel Viper]] Annihilation. They had taken heavy casualties in the approach by hidden gun batteries but manage to drop straight on top of one battery silencing it, before linking up with [[Delta Galaxy (Clan Cloud Cobra)| Delta Galaxy]] of [[Clan Cloud Cobra]] and pressing the attack.<ref name=wor150>''The Wars of Reaving'', p. 150</ref> − − By [[3083]] the Galaxy had moved to the [[Colleen]] system. Here it was one of three Galaxy bid in defense against multiple attacks by [[Clan Stone Lion]] and [[Clan Coyote]].
