2129, Heavy Losses
Olegar's rampage aboard the Glory mothership had caused truly devastating losses.
Although he had also been severely injured after Judgment used the Void Crystal to corrupt him, he had ultimately escaped intact. He had even snatched away the Soul Reaper Sword, which was effectively the same as kidnapping Marka Ragnos.

There had been 150,000 combat robots aboard. They had first been used to stop the Priestess and the others, only to be slaughtered through, then after the Mainframe regained control of the mothership, they had been used to attack the bridge and confront the controlled soldiers head-on. Over the course of those two battles, more than 50,000 had been destroyed, while another 20,000 had suffered damage too severe to be worth repairing.
There had been a total of 450,000 crew members. During the final thorough search, it was discovered that more than 30,000 people in corners and hidden cabins had not been controlled by Olegar and had thus escaped disaster. Everyone else had been controlled
