Over the course of a century, the Ecumene Status Army failed to protect seventeen member worlds from Hive incursions.

This strategy of overwhelming force proved effective for a time, and the Hive's advanced stalled. In response, [[Oryx, the Taken King|Oryx]] acquired the power to [[Taken|Take]] from the [[Worm]] [[Akka]], the power of the [[Darkness]] itself, and rapidly regained the advantage. The Ecumene Crisis Council met and determined that the Ecumene and its member species faced extinction within two hundred twenty years, and should therefore devote every aspect of its civilization to fighting the Hive. While this bought the Ecumene some time, the Hive's victory was now inevitable. After a century of war, the Ecumene Crisis Council was killed by Oryx at a place called the Fractal Wreath. Forty years after that, Oryx deceived the Dakaua and eliminated them. The Ecumene fled from the galaxy into the intergalactic void but were pursued by the Hive. One thousand years later, the Ecumene had been annihilated so utterly that only the Hive and Taox, who had managed to flee, remembered it.<ref name="XXVII"/><ref name="XXIX"/> | This strategy of overwhelming force proved effective for a time, and the Hive's advanced stalled.
