The Conservatory is a centralized hub location that functions as the home of a Halo Ring's Monitor or adjutant executors. Within the Conservatory, the Monitor can interface directly with the Ring's network infrastructure, file reports, carry out a wide variety of restorative reconnaissance protocols, and dispatch messages to other sites.{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22P350}} | The Conservatory is a centralized hub location that functions as the home of a Halo Ring's Monitor or adjutant executors.

The primary extension of Mendicant Bias was housed in a massive facility deep beneath Installation 07's surface, accessible via anti-gravity gondolas which traveled through an enormous, 20-30-kilometer-diameter circular opening in the ring's landscape. After passing through an undetermined void within the ring's bowels, the transit vehicles settled in an enormous chamber whose floor was a green-glowing maze of hard light paths resembling a spiderweb.{{Ref/Novel|Pri|Page=278-283}} Mendicant Bias itself was based in a mobile structure featuring its core crystals and a large green eye, moving on legs of hard light.{{Ref/Novel|Pri|Page=287-288}} It was here that the humans were eventually gathered and thoroughly examined by Mendicant Bias before the final effort to cancel the ring's failsafe orbit.{{Ref/Novel|Pri|Page=288}} After the installation's retake by the IsoDidact and Mendicant Bias' transfer away from the ring, the Primordial was detained in a chamber located near Mendicant Bias' former core, the [[Metarch-class ancilla|Metarch]]'s data crystals now dark and inert.{{Ref/Novel|Pri|Page=356}} The Primordial was imprisoned in a hemispherical chamber 531 meters in diameter within an arena 104 meters wide, locked in a cage of intermeshed black rods housing a [[slipspace bubble|temporal manipulation mechanism]]. The cage was located on a round elevated platform in the center of the arena.{{Ref/Novel|Pri|Page=359}} | The primary extension of Mendicant Bias was housed in a massive facility deep beneath Installation 07's surface, accessible via anti-gravity gondolas which traveled through an enormous, 20-30-kilometer-diameter circular opening in the ring's landscape.
