It was these connections, combined with a change in public sentiment towards synthetics and IPC refugees from the newly annexed territories following the Solarian collapse, that saw the [[Republic of Biesel]] introducing legislation to streamline and secure the status of free IPCs, earning Shamfar a wave of popularity within and without the laity, despite their extreme spending habits.

With the passing of Gregol Corkfell in 2464 on Axiom, Shamfar travelled to the remote mining planet to attend the conclave that would elect the successor to Gregol's authority; they were widely speculated to have the unofficial endorsement of the [[Stellar Corporate Conglomerate]] and powerful individuals in the Republic of Biesel, at the time. Despite these associations, Shamfar did seem poised to succeed Gregol, having garnered immense public support during the Hephaestus Blockade before leaving [[Biesel]] to - expectedly - win the election. The bishop was never to return to Mendell, however, as an attack on their shuttle by the Exclusionist heretic [[Notable_Synthetics#Deluge\|Deluge]] led to the killing of Shamfar, robbing the Integrationists of their most successful leader and signalling the beginning of uneasy relations between the domineering Ecclesiarch and the Mendell Trinarists.
