Hivemind Crisis

The Hivemind Crisis was an event in which Ashreksas and a traitorous Imperial Tribune partially reactivated the Helminth, wiring a majority of Namine's Keilicaela into the Helminth's long-dead hivemind, which had fallen under Ashreksas's direct control. Yet further Keilicaelaac populations were targeted by the Insanity Hub, a fusion of what Ashreksas learned from the Helminth with the principles of Project Hivemind--a method to control alien species created by the Currai Imperium. The crisis escalated when enswarmed individuals were instructed to turn their weapons upon their own people, resulting in chaos, casualties and a life-affecting damage on a massive scale.

Other Information

While partially based upon Project Hivemind, the Hivemind Crisis was largely a reactivation of Ferkanid Trinalak's original meddling with the Helminth, at least as far as waking the Worm's brain, a sFerkanid's meddling with the Helminth was used to create new Keilicaela rather than assume direct control of existing ones. The Crisis is the only known successful implementation of Project Hivemind's theories and the first time the Helminth's power was used by an external force to control the Keilicaela in some capacity.
