Taox was a sterile Mother and consequently fortunate to have a longer lifespan than most members of her species. She became the teacher of the royal offspring of the Osmium Court, a floating continent on the gas giant [[Fundament]], a trusted position. When the Osmium King's mind began to crumble from senility and madness, Taox realized his death was imminent, and feared that all of his daughters were too wayward and weak to ascend to the Osmium Throne and rule effectively. Secretly, she invited the rival Helium Drinkers of the Helium Court to invade the Osmium Court, assassinate the royal family, and make her regent of the continent under Helium King.<ref name="Two">[http://db.destinytracker.com/grimoire/enemies/books-of-sorrow/ii-the-hateful-verse '''Destiny Tracker''' - ''Grimoire: II: The Hateful Verse'']</ref> The Helium Drinkers subsequently invaded and killed the Osmium King, though the King's daughters managed to escape, vowing to one day return and take revenge on Taox for her treachery.<ref name="Three">[http://db.destinytracker.com/grimoire/enemies/books-of-sorrow/iii-the-oath '''Destiny Tracker''' - ''Grimoire: III: The Oath'']</ref> | Taox was a sterile Mother and consequently fortunate to have a longer lifespan than most members of her species.

Taox presumably ruled the Osmium Court until the King's daughters returned, transformed by the [[Worm]]s into Xivu Arath, Savathûn, and Auryx, the first Hive, and began spreading the Worms among the other proto-Hive to build an army. The nascent but powerful Hive forces recaptured the Osmium Court and took revenge on the Helium Drinkers, but Taox managed to escape to another kingdom, the Hydrogen Fountain.<ref name="Eleven">[http://db.destinytracker.com/grimoire/enemies/books-of-sorrow/xi-conquerors '''Destiny Tracker''' - ''Grimoire: XI: Conquerors'']</ref> The Hive's advance was inexorable, however, and Taox was forced to continue retreating. Eventually, she traveled to Kaharn Atoll, where she attempted to marshal the myriad other species of Fundament to strike down the Hive. This plan failed.<ref name="Eleven">[http://db.destinytracker.com/grimoire/enemies/books-of-sorrow/xi-conquerors '''Destiny Tracker''' - ''Grimoire: XI: Conquerors'']</ref> | Taox presumably ruled the Osmium Court until the King's daughters returned, transformed by the [[Worm]]s into Xivu Arath, Savathûn, and Auryx, the first Hive, and began spreading the Worms among the other proto-Hive to build an army.
