Events would deteriorate further when an already wounded Empiroxus was attacked by Peralitus outside of Beyond as revenge for his exile, resulting in another Council member (Matharin) sacrificing herself to save Empiroxus. An increasingly mentally unstable Xenixel ordered that the remaining Supergods – a dying Empiroxus, two inexperienced children and the confused Conceptilum and Abstractil, activate Hellensoerensen with him to execute Peralitus. Attempting to pilot the incomplete and dysfunctional automaton with such a cast in the harsh conditions of the impending Collapse predictably greatly damaged Hellensoerensen and made executing Peralitus difficult.
Ultimately, due to various reasons (including the death of Empiroxus), Xenixel was the only Supergod still piloting Hellensoerensen, and was forced to take full control of the automaton to execute Peralitus. Hellensoerensen could only function properly with six pilots and no one Supergod, no matter how powerful, could control the robot alone. While Peralitus's execution was successful, the Collapse had caught up with the Council and Xenixel was left trapped inside Hellensoerensen when the Collapse occurred. Hellensoerensen collapsed in on itself, shredding Xenixel into tiny pieces of Godsmoke.
Hellensoerensen was left greatly damaged and highly unstable by its first use during the Collapse, but was ultimately saved from any further damage by Abstractil. (At the cost of her own life.) Still, the surviving members of the Council would have to take great care when operating it, as the automaton was now so unstable that merely activating it alone could cause severe damage to Beyond itself.
Second Use
After the events of the Collapse, it was agreed that Hellensoerensen should be used as infrequently as possible to avoid damage to Beyond. No situations presented enough of a danger for the Council to agree on activating the automaton until one particularly dire situation caused by a powerful consciousness known as Venrensorys.
Venrensorys was a mixture of a Stage I Seed from the External Hazard and the broken mind of an alternate Hyperman from a different Monocosm whom the Supergod Council had previously thought to be dead. All that was left of Hyperman's mind when he merged with the Stage I Seed was his hatred of the Supergod Council and as such, Venrensorys embodied everything the Supergod Council stood against.
When Venrensorys gained physical form, the Supergod Council were forced to merge into Hellensoerensen to fight him, as separated they stood no chance. However, the sheer instability caused merely by Hellensoerensen's activation was so powerful it allowed Venrensorys's physical form to grow exponentially size and power, making Venrensorys even stronger than Hellensoerensen. Initially it seemed as if the Supergods were fighting a losing battle, but the Council members were able to use the fact that Venrensorys stood against the concepts of unity and concern for long-term consequences (as they were concepts the Supergods supposedly valued) against it to gain an advantage.
After a significant struggle, the Supergod Council were able to trick Venrensorys into throwing itself out of Beyond and into Transcendentem, which had been corrupted by the Collapse to such an extent that it was dangerous to even exist within it. As a result, the unstable physical form of Venrensorys began to rapidly decay and, in human terms, disintegrate. Venrensorys was defeated for now, although his consciousness still remained within Beyond.
