 To try and break the siege at Pallas, the Queen ordered Paladins Abra Zire and Kamala Rior to hunt for Skolas. However, this eventually proved fruitless after he disappeared into the Hildian Asteroids, and it became known as the Battle of False Tidings.<ref name="Weksis"/> Beltrik, Skolas' vassal, eventually left the Hildians to gather [[Ether]] from the asteroid [[19 Fortuna]], positioning the bulk of his forces above the resupply area in order to form a defensive screen against any potential attack from the Armada Paladins. Unbeknownst to Beltrik however, following Bamberga's Wrath, the Reef had constructed a powerful gravity weapon known as "Carybdis", and Zire planned to utilize it together with her experience.<ref name="Beltrik">'''Bungie (2014/5/19)''', ''[[Destiny]]: [[House of Wolves (expansion)|House of Wolves]] Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire/Enemies/Fallen_Hunted#WANTED:_Beltrik.2C_the_Veiled|WANTED: Beltrik, the Veiled]]''</ref><ref name="Reef 3">'''Bungie (2014/5/19)''', ''[[Destiny]]: [[House of Wolves (expansion)|House of Wolves]] Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire/Places/The_Asteroid_Belt#Ghost_Fragment:_The_Reef_3|Ghost Fragment: The Reef 3]]''</ref>
-Knowing that Beltrik expected Zire to throw her forces against his defensive fleet, she devised a strategy to make him believe she was doing just that, dividing her forces and sending a portion of them to engage Beltrik's screen. While her feint kept his forces contained at Fortuna, Zire then gathered the rest of her fleet at asteroid [[687 Tinette]], which was making a close pass by Fortuna at the time. With the remainder of her fleet safely hidden within Tinette's shadow, she activated Carybdis. <ref name="Beltrik"/><ref name="Reef 3"/>
