History
In order to prevent Mendicant Bias from subverting or harming him, Offensive Bias had shattered of Mendicant Bias into its component sections and scattered them throughout the few remaining ships of his fleet for transport to Installation 00, where he would study the fallen AI construct. Much of his fleet was destroyed or ravaged by the Flood. "The Alchemist" was destroyed in this manner.
