In the middle of the tribunal against the Master Builder, Mendicant Bias unexpectedly returned with Installation 07 to the Forerunner [[Capital]]. Using the authority granted to it in the event of an emergency, Mendicant Bias entered the Capital's systems, disabled all [[ancilla]]s and security constructs, and held the Ecumene Council hostage by overriding their [[Forerunner personal armor|armor]], rendering them immobile. It also gained control over the armor of [[Bornstellar Makes Eternal Lasting]] and confronted him, as he was host to the memories and knowledge of the Didact. Through Bornstellar, the Didact's imprinted consciousness issued a verbal failsafe code, temporarily shutting Mendicant Bias down and allowing the Forerunners to respond to the attack.<ref>'''Halo: Cryptum''', ''pages 300-303''</ref>
