Before losing the [[Lost Forges|Gofannon Forge]] on [[Nessus]] to the [[Guardian]]s, the Kell's Scourge had infiltrated their forces into the [[Botza District]] of the Last City, uncovering the Black Armory Vault hidden within after it was lost during the [[Red War]]. After the Scourge plundered it of its advanced weaponry, they took an interest to create a new type of war machine; repurposing the Vault's phase radiance technology to create Insurrection Prime using the hull of a [[Fallen Walker]] and piloted by a [[Prime Servitor]] housed within its chassis. In response, [[Ada-1]] [[Scourge of the Past|dispatched]] a fireteam of Guardians to secure the Vault back from the Fallen. | Before losing the [[Lost Forges|Gofannon Forge]] on [[Nessus]] to the [[Guardian]]s, the Kell's Scourge had infiltrated their forces into the [[Botza District]] of the Last City, uncovering the Black Armory Vault hidden within after it was lost during the [[Red War]].

Aided by [[Berserker]]s, Insurrection Prime roamed the wreckage of the [[Botza District]] to repel the Guardians, threatening to annihilate the whole City with its Turbulent Detonation. It was quickly outwitted however when the team disabled its shielding and kept it staggered with a [[Drake Tank]]. The Guardians unleashed significant damage to the mech's exposed Servitor core, only for the Prime to retaliate by tethering them with different Phase Radiances. In a final stand, the fireteam pooled their respective radiances together to destroy the war machine once and for all. | ||
The remains of Insurrection Prime were never cleared from the Botza District. When the [[House of Light]] was granted the district as the Eliksni Quarter, its wreck was laid just outside their walls, where [[Eido, Daughter of Misraaks]], spoke of the Kell's Scourge as a cautionary tale about people who would take advantage of others' desperation. | The remains of Insurrection Prime were never cleared from the Botza District.

*The word "Insurrection" means a violent uprising against authority, essentially rising against the traditional ways of the Fallen. It is one of the few Fallen to not bear a traditional name ending with -sis, -is, or -iks, demonstrating its abandonment of tradition. | *The word "Insurrection" means a violent uprising against authority, essentially rising against the traditional ways of the Fallen.
