Mendicant Bias commanded the five Halos under his control to fire, but the immense tidal forces of the Capital, combined with sustained fire from the Capital's defense and the stress of a recent Slipspace transition, caused one of the rings to shatter. The outcome of the battle, and the fate of the other four rings, is unknown. | Mendicant Bias commanded the five Halos under his control to fire, but the immense tidal forces of the Capital, combined with sustained fire from the Capital's defense and the stress of a recent Slipspace transition, caused one of the rings to shatter.
