face of the Emperor's foes you've done your duty if your men have failed you I will leave their judgment in your hands thank you my note I am NOT here for your thanks this port must be held if we are

orcs only retreat to regroup they will keep coming until you all they are dead brothers let us destroy this alien filth excellent the various operational the Space Marine squads can now upgrade their standard Baltar's to flamers and heavy Baltar's those Imperial Guardsmen looked like they could use some assistance come brother's make haste our prayers have been answered they come the Space Marine the slice BOTS defensive wall must have blasted their way in we must destroy any enemy must be now our creatures may have constructed it is time we started acting like it [Music] today the my faith is my shine ready reporting for duty circles praise the Emperor [Applause] pull about then there's work to be done the enemies of the interest while the enemies of the Emperor for the well done blood Ravens victory is ours [Music] I am honored to be in the presence of a librarian I wish to know how my men can better serve you we should wait for the captain to finish his prayers I saw you stand against the orcs you are a brave man colonel I wish I could say the same of your men I shall strengthen their resolve my lord see that you do or we shall do it for you you have something you wish to say say it girl how did you know even without my psychic gifts it is obvious speak is it true your company eradicated a heresy on the planet of Cyrene recently an exterminate as' down to the planets last man woman and child Colonel your company is welcome but such questions are not do not ask the captain about Cyrene if you intend to remain in his good graces brother captain the colonel wishes an audience with you thank you as at all my lord my Tartarus 37th Imperial Guard regiment stand ready to serve you in protecting the city they wish to make amends for they will have many opportunities to prove themselves warriors worthy of the Emperor the blood ravens are leaving the city its protection is in your hands I will ready my men may I ask what your next course of action is orcs only respect strength I intend to show them that we have it in ample supply Journal of Captain Gabriel Angelo's the situation on the planet Tartarus is grim while the Blood Ravens crushed the main orc offensive at the spaceport the bulk of their force is not engaged they gather in the wilderness awaiting a critical mass of bodies that will overwhelm the Imperial forces in a green wave of death and destruction the Blood Ravens will not allow this to occur orbital monitoring has detected an area in the southern forests where the orcs appear to be massing orcs only respect strength so they will look to the largest of their groups to lead them we will insert a small covert strike force to eliminate these awk leaders and destroy any encampments where the orcs might mass this should cut to the heart of the orcs fighting spirit and delay their inevitable counter-attack we must tread lightly lest we disturb this slumbering Beast you you have your orders now go and may the Emperor protect you I do not care for all this sneaking about I know old friend you always have preferred the direct approach we have the Imperial Guard why not send them into battle instead of treating them like glorified shepherds if we meet the orcs in force they cannot possibly stand before us we have fought the orc a hundred times before they thrive on war a direct assault on them would likely improve their morale and simply attract more of them the casualties would be enormous what are the Imperial Guard for if not to die for their Emperor at the very least we should retain a regiment to remain at our core we have little support this far out we would not want to be remembered for our carelessness we old friend or me we are brothers Gabriel you know better than to ask that question I know what this is about there was nothing you could have done to save Cyrene do not mention that place again acid or Cyrene was my homeworld my responsibility [Music] scout team 3 do you copy yes my lord the local Imperial waterworks has fallen into orc hands if we are to reclaim this area we must first retake this position scouts have infiltrated ahead of you and will assist you in your reconnaissance if things prove to be more than you can handle reinforcements will be mobilized to assist getting into position this area is crawling with orcs we should infiltrate to sneak past them do not get too close well we may be spotted getting into position [Music] scouts in position there isn't patrol wait for them to pass before guys tend to sleep I there is our target a large Nobu looks like he's in charge of this bunch free kill him or severely weaken the earth morale of the truck is dead we will take it from here [Music] the waterworks are under our control we stopped building a base before we hunt down the rest of the orcs this day shall be a glorious one for the imperiaz charge orders received [Music] orders received from the web this day shall be a glorious one for the universe Scouts ready beware brothers mechanical monster is a killer can it is devastating in close quarters fighting and it's armored hide will shrug off small arms fire we must equip ourselves with missile launchers if we are to destroy the abomination the emperor protest of the glorious one [Music] we started to identify and protects this day shall we umbrella while the enemies of the Emperor you know peace [Music] I must speak with the captain he is giving the Emperor his praise leave him this moment yes brother librarian we completed our sweep of the area and can find no more orcs indeed tell your squad to move ahead and clear the company's path yes brother library [Music] I will suffer no trespass [Music] the orc invasion is far more serious than we originally imagined the Imperial Navy with the help of the blood ravens battle vows the litany of fury has regained tenuous control of the space around the planet however the number of all troops and supplies that have reached planetside far exceeds our original estimates the orc Menace has spread throughout the low population areas of the planet civilians are fleeing in mass to the cities where they hope the higher concentration of Imperial Guard can protect them due to our recent actions we were able to destroy several orc forward encampments and kill many of their leaders so we can expect at least a brief respite from further orc attacks in this area the blood Ravens have returned to the capital city of Magna bonham to prepare the defenses during this downtime you brother Matteo second squad is to man those buildings opposite the Market Streets go Brotherton theus take night squad and shore up our defenses along our southern flank we need those gun emplacements operational that is correct brother Corrales begin executing protocol 18 we will silence that all car Tillery my daughter I have taken the liberty of stationing my Imperial Guard around the key facilities including the spaceport and power plant your initiative is admirable colonel but I need you to pull your men back to this location where they can concentrate their defense but if we abandon the spaceport we cannot hold the spaceport colonel we have to maximize our defence in one location to assure victory do not mistake the orcs simple manner for stupidity they are far more cunning than they may seem now go yes my lord I do not agree with this course of action why are we sitting back waiting for the orcs to strike we should attack surely it is better than doing nothing you would have us meet the orcs on open ground that would be madness it is written in the Codex estar T's that this situation calls for a defensive action of course you are right perhaps patience is the better virtue here brothers the orcs have overrun the city this transgression shall not stand we will fight until the last orc is lost and damnation a sacred machine alters misfired and landed somewhere within the city we must recover the structure and any survivors kill Emperor be praised the machine cult is still intact we must get a servitor to finish its construction immediately infernal structures within the city walls destroying these structures is vital to regain control over the city protecting yes my lord yes my lord we will cross the enemies of the boy here I know a step on the register support to die for the Emperor than them for yourself no keel or four leaves he's moving out with nothing stay fine how's the biggest dork ear which means oyster Lulu's Lowrey bunch of geeks or even white white enough I gaze marine boys and wasted a stop damn fat goat thud oh that will lead us strength of all the boys not a small wake mama rats like his boys are you just calvess amoeba sighs thumping whose ox Maurice murmurs were fightin rainin dropping Yoda boss world's gonna go get big boss or among us he got something special planned for a series the defense of the city of Magna Bonham was a success the orcs caught herself our guard but not unprepared I will not underestimate these aliens again it is clear now that their primary push was towards the capital city and they have moved in to attack with a speed I have rarely seen a military force capable of achieving I've read reports of all clans who focus on fast strikes but I did not realize they could be so coordinated it is as if something's driving the orcs here some unknown desire or instinct the Imperial Guard regiment's watching over the city are decimated and will not be resupplied for at least 24 hours the orcs will renew their attacks far sooner our scouts are reporting a force massing 50 kilometers from the city that Dwarfs the group that attacked magna Bonham and reports from civilians speak of a mighty Orca leads them bigger and more cunning than the rest if the capital city Falls this planet will not be far behind I cannot allow this to occur everything is ready boss race is in for a good stomping this is gonna be the best fight again miserable lives just make sure it's the last fight of their lives I don't take orders from you you way we've held up our side of the bargain have we not you wanted a new planet to wage war on we have given it to you you wanted to face the Imperials greatest warriors the Space Marines they are here we've even provided you with weapons and Imperial tanks to use on the battlefield and don't worry our scan returns that you keep the Imperials distracted from our operations in you've kept your word but that still don't means you can order the orbs around my apologies we've delivered the last of the weaponry they're in the hands of your the servants and we'll take our leave now I respectfully request that you keep the Marines busy for as long as you can voila rookie by more than busy we'll keep them dead with a lot of cow dowing these creatures disgust me me ox are a tool nothing more and quite an effective one I might add the night is like providing such unpredictable aliens with our own weaponry Lord bear stalks are not unpredictable quite the contrary you can rely on them to turn against you but they will honor our agreement as long as we provide them with enemies to satiate their battle lost if really committee determines of doing our bidding strength before betraying us you cannot intimidate something that knows no fear trouble yourself no longer with the orcs we will have what we came for and be gone before they finished with the Imperials and turned on us talking with a muse is that a fine madam terms smelly chaosboys is weak not nearly enough for the challenge for the boys if they was strong our Oaks they wouldn't need us to fight forum will take their guns and their help and when we're done chopping up all the hearings we'll come back here and chop them up as well [Applause] orbital imagery shows a heavy concentration of Orcs in the area we must secure a location and establish a base before destroying the war boss and his clan combine the holy fire of the whirlwinds with the jump packs of our assault Marines cleanse this area yes our scouts report the war bosses in the vicinity of this location overseas the second or clan has gathered between us they are heavily defended on this plateau they must be eliminated to clear a path to the wall the boys at your disposal less than before we will establish a forward base of this location to facilitate ready access to space marinus we will need many to ensure the war boss is dead and buried earth is the place I await your instructions yes Laura is the first look at that monstrosity I have heard legends for such gross but eyes never cease one on the men one concentrate your fire then we must take this creature down Knology you are an only geez no fear faith is my shoe Oh soon is the amp there is no such things innocence recently [Music] damn it my knowledge is at your disposal Breathitt anthias burned beyond recovery of his Jean seed along with brother Michaelis nothing was left of them safer ash they burned from the inside out anything else to report the orc war boss has been destroyed but we saw a dropship leave the area captain she bore the eight pointed star the mark of the ruinous powers of chaos the forces of chaos here now Tartarus is endured several black Crusades led by the terrible chaos champions however it seems too convenient that walks and these heretics are here at the same time but I trust the eyes of our scouts is it all do you sense anything no I have sensed nothing but if the nature of brother tan teases demise is any indication then they would have a sorcerer with them who would be capable of masking their presence especially with all the background static caused by the orcs ah honored guest has arrived who is it Inquisitor Mordechai Tov protector of the Emperor's Divine Word and will disease here to take command an Inquisitor may have near unlimited power yes he can Commission the service of any Imperial citizen from peasant to planetary governor but I shall not cede command of my Space Marines to him Inquisitor or not then why is he here does he suspect one of us of heresy he is an Inquisitor they suspect everyone of heresy if chaos taints this world then that explains his presence we must share with him what we discovered Inquisitor Tov welcome to Tartarus Thank You captain we have little time for courtesies you and your men must leave Tartarus now the orcs have been repelled and the war boss has been defeated but this war is far from over the orcs still threatened to overcome several major population centers and could mass more than a large enough force to overwhelm the Imperial armies present on the planet we have bought time nothing more but this is no longer a primary concern our scouts have recovered evidence that the forces of chaos the great enemy may be operating on this planet right under our very noses we must face this foe wherever they stand if there is even a chance that they are here we must seek them out and destroy them Inquisitor halt Toth is demanding that we leave the planet but of all the powers his position grants him commandeering a Space Marine company is not one of them I must admit that I find his presence unwelcome so soon after the events on my homeworld of Cyrene Inquisitor halls have a way of inflaming a guilty conscience than that I do not need right now [Music] you [Music] this warp storm could trap us here for a month or fourth century we cannot risk stayin here we must evacuate Tartarus before it arrives in three days time the Imperial God and holy fleet can attend to the evacuation the Blood Ravens have more pressing matters to contend with such as I believe agents of chaos have taken strong roots here I sense no taint here even so were there a Kaos presence on Tartarus it is better we leave them here with the orcs than waste more lives fighting them we could wish ours fate for either of our enemies and to be trapped with the other but we must leave here no that is a matter for my brothers and I to decide we will use these three days to settle our affairs and satisfy our suspicions meanwhile you have our transports to facilitate evacuation canoe brahmer the captain and I must attend to matters of faith if you would leave us please but surely this involves me is that forgive me for not being clear on the matter I said please when in fact I meant now this does involve him he should have shown him a modicum of respect captain net you uncovered the extensive heresy in your home world Cyrene was it that has nothing to do with the events here on Tartarus but I believe they do you requested the Inquisition undertaken exterminators the destruction of your planet's entire populace which we obliged I still fail to see captain I am not questioning your loyalty but I must wonder if your actions on Cyrene have not affected your judgment perhaps that was a poor choice of words I merely fear that you might see chaos but it does not exist I ask that as a loyal subject of the Emperor you serve the Imperium interest before your own agenda captain that Inquisitor had no right to speak to you in such manner but perhaps he is right the coming storm will trap our enemies here where they can consume one another and what if the forces of chaos escaped the system before the storm no we will not use this freak occurrence as an excuse to avoid our enemies or our responsibilities they are here for a reason and we will discover that reason we are with you brother captain as always the humans are coming your way in full force you should hear their heavy feet long before you see them and smell them long before that Oboro command is indicated the dropship landed in this channel proximity they've discovered a path captain it's obvious someone has been digging here cut by orcs I've never seen an old cleanse that a careful hand to a task if it wasn't orcs and it must be the forces of chaos [Music] we will follow this path and discover the truth behind what has transpired here on the troll orcs attack Senate committee Scouts charge wait they weren't attacking they were fleeing what could inspire fear in an orc elven Terrence taken about the presence in forces of chaos it Eldar or chaos I will have answers either way press away on alert brothers the enemy must be nearby please I know that the orcs and elves are not weak together when the packs neither it does not mean they are dirty yesterday I learned up to their lack of honor and those who lack honor deserve death the ballers shall be forever remembered as the while the enemies of the emperor still draw breath the fallen shall be forever remembered as the Emperor's finest the Emperor mine can spawn so the good Inquisitor senses no chaos here how fortunate for the Imperium that such keen eyed eagles stand vigil over her gates what dark crafts have these Eldar invoked none at least not here the servants of chaos sacrificed this poor Guardsman themselves to what end is a door I know not I believe the altar is a marker a waypoint in a map that leads elsewhere someone too faced many portions of text regardless of what Kaos seeks here the altar requires a sacrifice of blood or more likely a life brother is at all you have an hour to study the altar document everything as is our tradition then burn it lest its taint infect us all but Gabriel there is much to learn from here we should not be too eager to learn what chaos does not teach it misleads and it betrays there is nothing to learn here save for our next course these transports have been damaged somehow make the repairs and be quick have you despite instructions Gabriel does not understand he does not appreciate the significance of this quiet heretic once I find what you seek I will use it against you for the glory of the Emperor and my brothers have no fear sorcerer I will be there under the orders of Inquisitor on top the citizens of Tartarus have began a mass exodus of the planet such an action can lead to disaster in the best of situations but the reports reaching my ears are ones of Planet white hysteria as the population makes its pilgrimage to the two main space ports convoys of transports and civilians on foot are being plagued by attacks from orc forces stretched thin the Imperial Guard is barely keeping order in the major population centers sacrificing their lives long enough to hold back the green tide of the orcs they a truly warriors of the Emperor I wish for nothing more than to be able to join them in this noble cause but I cannot deny my duty any more than they can deny theirs we have found proof that the forces of chaos are operating on the planet of Tartarus Isidore has found evidence on the blasphemous altar that indicates they may be headed towards mount corral an old Mountain located dangerously close to an area of heavy or captivity I have requested a regiment of Imperial Guard from Colonel Brom to help cover our approach I regret asking when the Colonel's forces are already stretched to the breaking point but there are greater things at stake now [Music] you exalted Farseer the humans are moving traversing the slope as you predicted they are walking into our trap yes but you can never ambush a Space Marine remember that they expect treachery at every turn you can only validate their suspicions your orders we have locked the humans into this path as they have locked us into ours they gnome they enter a gauntlet and they will likely drag us into it as well now we play our parts and praise and we are the better actors are you certain yes the past amount Korath this is where the author said we must go why do you question my findings I do not question your abilities brother librarian but I do question their tactical sense that mountain pass is the perfect location for an ambush I do not deny that this is likely a trap which is all the more proof that our enemy lies in this direction very true old friend stay alert and follow my lead I want no mistakes the greed Scouts are you in position yes my lord we have discovered the location of the first elder forces we must find a way to overcome this Eldar strike force before we can scout out a good location to stage our field operations we all be this structure is a web way portal the area are intercalary from one location to another we must destroy any web way portals we find to limit the elders mobility yes Michel this is a good location to establish a field base Gabriel to the litany of fury lock on my location and prepare to drop HQ ready now praise the Emperor follow me getting into position we have established our field base they must continue through having to horizontally expect heavy resistance make sure you move cautiously and keep the field base protected at all time my lord I have arrived at your request we need you to cover the eastern pass the combat that is occurring here will likely attract the orc forces nearby we cannot afford their parents on the road is sentient you can count on the Imperial Guard to hold this pass no orcs will get by us keep me appraised of the situation I will provide you assistance if the orcs attack yes my lord I will destroy overnight I think Ahmad forgot about us how long have you been here about a week you held this position for a week by yourselves yes my lord we've seen some pretty freaky stuff too come on I'll show you the Paulding shall be forever remembered as the Emperor's by a sultan taking gavage treacherous alien stuff they can hide their faces in plain sight of our men brothers it's located environmental basis utilize a commander unit like myself or the librarian to put with sergeants can also detect hidden enemies [Music] battlefield already standing ready - what are unique was your order Scout's here the race attack I turned off which we are still on earthing more Eldar explosives and demolition charges but we dare not move them we replace their triggering mechanisms however that is all I care to do with such Zener Tech was this a trap no by the placement of the charges it is likely they planned to collapse this area burying the marker and anyone near it they failed is it all study the marker and see where it leads us next gap Finland Inquisitor Toth has arrived of course he has yes captain it is an impressive sight but I never claimed Kaos had never set foot on this planet before I said that if something were here the impending warp storm would eliminate that threat best we not remain to share his fate and as I explained Inquisitor the Blood Ravens will remain until the last possible moment until that happens in two or three days hence I plan on pursuing this riddle captain I do not presume to question your decisions concerning the Blood Ravens but when it comes to employing the Colonel's Imperial Guard in your quest my quest yet again you accuse me of pursuing my personal interests it is my duty and yours to expunge any scent of heresy or chaos you overstep yourself as do you Inquisitor it is not the Colonel's Imperial Guard their lives belong to the Emperor it is by his mandate and will that I use the imperial guard against the forces of disorder and elevate them in the glory of holy battle I see now that coming here was a mistake if you are set on a path that will lead you to destruction I can do nothing to stop you but I won't allow you to drag us down with you my inquisitorial edict I am taking control of the planet address all requests for planetary resources including its military we'll go through media captain on this point on you and your men are on your own the appearance of the Eldar is a complete mystery to me I have dealt with these treacherous aliens in the past and have never seen rhyme nor reason to their actions it is unnerving I prefer the orc as an opponent for all their brutality there is a twisted form of Honor with the orcs they meet their opponent on the field of battle but the Eldar seemed to have contempt for all fighting them is like shooting at mist and shadows Isidore spent hours interpreting the ruins on the marker that was unearthed by the forces of chaos and has discovered what they seek he claims it is some form of key but to unlock what he is unsure never mind it is enough that the chaos forces seek it the key lies in the room city of saint-lo for amar our choices are gone we have but one recourse left do you understand what is asked of you you cannot ask that which I offer freely fast here my life is yours it belongs to all elder now brave one you will become the war crime made manifest the host is assembled and we fully commit ourselves to the battle you are the best of us make a lament chicane find you worthy of becoming his avatar then the human shall have the death they seek you easy simply the false Emperor's lackeys an elder will battle for the city they are not but hapless fools before your might Lord Bale surely a modicum of patience is in order here let us progress to your benefit and my devices you will see her faith have I led you astray thus far no but if you fail me in this yes yes then my suffering will be great just be ready to move when I instruct just a bit longer and then the key will be mine you are approaching the objective on your guard brothers the key is located in this monument which is currently held by the elder an ambush foul Zino's we must find our way through the city to the monument and take it from these treacherous aliens - don't just buy the treacherous narrative as it is called an avatar such we cannot allow this abomination or Imperial soil destroy us would be wary brothers Space Marines the enemy shall no fear the avatar is retreating shall not falter yes my lord they shall be a glorious one a Michele lockbox in stands the Amazon is retreating the avatar is destroyed the Emperor the elder will not fight so fiercely now the destiny of war is bad wish to God well done my brothers my faith is my sheep [Music] is the Emperor now requisition terminators at the orbital relay structure use these units well they are almost unstoppable on the field of battle equal to the Eldar have notified this bridge close the gate we must capture and hold the strategic point on the bridge for two minutes this will give us enough time to rework the gate house circuitry and open the gates defending objective we've captured the strategic point controlling the bridge now we must hold it against the enemy we have captured the bridge the gates will now be lowered venerate the immortal memorize this day shall be a glorious one today shall be a glorious one the emperor of protest what my faith is my shoe today the enemy [Music] kill me Oh blithering my body and cast my name to the wind but you must heed me bury that which lies beneath my feet it will undo us all I may be your enemy in this but we both have a great Robo do not listen Gabriel we must destroy this alien she knows much much we need to learn what could she offer but lies do not trust that Gabriel okay you who was that alien what did he steal a key the last step along a bloody path a key to what the undoing of us all stop speaking in riddles he stole a key a key to the shadows of this world to the evil for that lies with him tell me what this key does you do not know your Inquisitor keeps you on a short leash he knows ask him how dare you speak ill of the Emperor's loyal subject he has known since he arrived or should I say he never left do you not think it convenient he appeared from nowhere and landed on the cusp of a warp storm or that I know him already human you are caught in events beyond your reckoning but we can help one another and stop the forces of chaos from succeeding you fought well alien and while we share common goals I cannot risk your betrayal in this matter you have squandered enough of my attentions No for better or worse we are locked in our course now him and I your enemies have taken position in a Danann city sector they will not remain there long we are too weak to fight them you have seen to that the great enemy managed to steal the key from out of our very grasp damn the elder and their arrogance had we not been delayed in reaching the key we could have denied the ruinous powers their prize we still have no idea what this key does according to the elder which Inquisitor Toth holds these answers if this is true then he has a good deal to explain the least of which is not why he would withhold information that could allow us to better fight the forces of chaos could he be tainted the Fortis unimaginable even more concerning we know now that we face more than mere chaos cults but members of an actual traitor legion the very Marines who turned against our Emperor some 10 millennia ago luckily our scouts were able to track their sorcerer and his entourage back to their base of operations it is located not far from our current position I relish in the opportunity to bring death to these blasphemous traitors you my lord blood Ravens approach from the south now they get so close Lord these fellows are minor annoyances we have the key and ample bodies to imprison the blood Ravens behind a wall of corpses when we complete the ceremony your assurances leave me cold Sylve events have proven my words true in every turn my lord we are not in danger their words are proven you fortunate sorcerer to what you of this present pact of nauseous optimism and we have received a message Lord Bale and we have a new ally who's more than ready to betray the blood Ravens excellence prepare for what is to come and dispose of this idiot why I failed you were stupid enough to pass my delivery ill news to LA bail and we cannot abide stupidity brother Matteo report the chaos forces have rent an impassable chasm through the center of the city and have taken a position in a temple but battle is upon us captain we are arriving at your position momentarily hold the chasm I will deal with the temple it will be done you're finished apothecary had the Emperor not intended I suffer that I would feel no pain what foul acts are these heathens involved in they are performing a ceremony to release the key from its bindings we must stop them yes we will need to break down the mighty doors of that once glorious temple it appears they have renta chasm across the city stopping us from reaching the other side an outpost with machine cults located here gives us access to the vehicles we will surely require secure the outpost and stop that ceremony well isn't ready is thar never vigilance they are posted secure the doors to this tunnel were designed to stop all but the most violent impacts to bring them down we will need the power of Hell fires and predators on the lot and we'll be driving the enemy sub with fear the Emperor my some even stand furniture here doors are broken with haste stop them before they can finish the Imperial Guard have arrived victory is ours wait why do they not attack what the trail is this Space Marines cleanse these heretics he who stands with Inquisitor Toth has arrived at your request and what do our scouts say the gods distraction was a success the chaos Lord and his hosts escaped we are however tracking their movements and questioning some of the traitor guard that we captured how could I not have seen this how is it I am blind when it matters the most I referring to these traitorous Guardsmen or the destruction of your homeworld Cyrene I should have seen the rot before it spread instead I was blind for far too long but with my own world to the torch I killed for the Inquisition's eager sanction and watched too many innocents die in a holy firestorm and yet Here I am again at yet another doorstep with the executioner's blade in my very hand blessed is the mind too small for dart Gabriel perhaps there is truth in there for the both of us I still believe old friend I believe in the sovereign might of the golden throne and in the purity of the Imperium but you have lost faith in yourselves only in what I see is at all what I see and what is it that you see captain man I see conspirators and Liars more concerned with their own agenda than the will of the Emperor I am not so easily cowered by such displays captain you lied to me and cost me men better they dye their blood pure if you feel warranted in handing out recriminations then their deaths are on your head I warned you to leave this world to leave Tartarus for the warp storm your words still ring untrue Inquisitor I know you were here before we arrived I am not in the habit of explaining my actions captain but yes I was here before you arrived stalking after Horace district my knights of their dreams the same horrors that the legions of chaos seek on Tartarus there are no coincidences captain there is only the storm that winnows the faithful from the heretic are we faithful men taught good servants of the Emperor it is time for us to put aside our differences what do they seek to us what do you seek here this world is cursed captain thousands of years ago an artifact of ancient evil power was lost here the forces of chaos seek this artifact they sought it for centuries but have never held all the pieces of the puzzle now they do an imperial excavation team uncovered the first makkah and word somehow got to the enemy with the knowledge of the exact planet and the first makkah it was a simple matter to uncover the remainder now they have the last piece necessary a key to unearth the artifact itself what is this artifact a stone called the melodic table it contains a creature of great evil a creature of chaos itself the stone imprisons a demon one of untold power how is it possible that the citizens of Tartarus did not know this these artifacts lay buried beneath their own cities from what i summize a demon within the melodic tum' may be imprisoned but it is not powerless it can still influence people with visions and madness the ancient texts in the registrar term Alphaeus speaks of a warped storm that visited this system at an age when many Space Marine chapters was still young the storm of the inhabitants of this planet insane under the demons influence they hid the markers and buried the mellah dictum who protected against hunters like myself when colonists returned to this world they remained ignorant of the perils they built over the dark places never knowing what lay beneath and the elder did they seek this power for themselves no it was they who imprisoned the demon in the first place the elder fiercely safeguard knowledge of the stone against all others going so far as to interfere in our efforts to find it as chaos is most ancient enemy they see themselves as the only capable defense against its influence and we have paid for their arrogance I assume there is still time to avert disaster this is already a disaster the power of the Miller dictum is enough to turn the faithful and Drive men mad many of the Imperial Guard and local population have already turned as you've seen it's affecting you and your men as well I can feel it it is calling the warp storm to eclipse this system it wants to trap us here with it so I can force even the best of us to serve it's twisted Whaler this is why I encouraged you to leave why I still encourage it you know I cannot do that I will not shrink away in the face of email I would do no less enough letters in this between I'm face our enemy United together we have a better chance of finding and destroying the maledicte of [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Music] [Music] the Mara dictum is mine da juris is a planet gone mad over 60% of the population has fallen to the orc forces and what's left of the Imperial Guard are fighting a desperate losing battle to protect those that remain as they leave the planet the traitor Imperial Guard we encountered in Luverne ma are not the only ones nearly 25% of the guard has treacherously turned on their former comrades forming maniacal blood cults that ambush and carve up their fellow Guardsmen certainly I have seen the powers of chaos affect the minds of men but never so many at once and never so quickly the Imperial Navy holds orbit and the Blood Ravens own battle barge the litany of fury awaits a call for me to send transports to pick up all bloodraven forces on a moment's notice we are prepared to leave this doomed planet but before we go there are things we must do first but a stop to the forces of chaos and destroy the malla dictum or die trying [Music] Wow demand sacrifice the universe rewards those willing to spill their life's blood for the promise of power Cindy what the traitor Imperial Guardsmen have fallen so quickly I expected them to last a bit more now the some of them have betrayed our positions of the black Ravens they're on their way here now continue chanting I shan't be long the circumstances you mention are divine providence my lord everything is as planned once I dispense with this last obstacle you will have that which we have plotted in schemes to achieve and if the Space Marines have arrived before Providence Grace's us you think we should play the good house and indulge them in a bloody feast at all costs however keep them from interfering this is a delicate process that cannot well afford any more interruptions and might I advise you through everything at the Blood Ravens everything there every contribution in this matter is paramount especially when we are so close where were we this power demand sacrifice now you know what we fight and why we will launch a two-prong assault against the temple with the help of several Guardsman units who remain loyal to the Emperor we must stop our adversaries from uncovering the malla dictum come with me you have new orders Weiner over hidden way into the temple tell no one else it is a surprise we must rest control of the fall relics from the vile forces of Lord Bale we cannot stop until they are ours the captain has gone to secure the southern flank and left it to us and which the main defense will crush we will not fail is this understood or the Emprise the relics not sure to be well defended if we cripple the Alpha legions infrastructure there will be no match your might we have made landfall let us secure this location and then tails [Applause] [Music] yes my lord of his whim my lord be the ritual failed to break the protective seal guarding stone but then the anticipated in fact I counted on it we require a larger sacrifice it is time there are your father my lord never forget all power demands sacrifice thank you for you as I promised taking old friend I first met the librarian Isadora akio's when I was still a battle brother with no men at my command over 30 years in service and I had not even attained veteran status I had seen the power of the librarians and their neophytes but none who wielded the kind of raw power ability and will that is it all possessed in battle I discovered that these traits were matched only by his knowledge and wisdom he was truly a great man he will be missed now I go to destroy the traitorous individual who inhabits his adores form Emperor give me strength [Music] what news subject the Kaos Marines retreated to this city and entrench themselves whatever is to happen will happen here and the good captain I would call him starved for vengeance but my words are inadequate to encompass his fury make ready we have wasted enough time and suffered for it agreed are we know nothing of our enemy or his intentions bail was someone's partner Sindri he called him syndra is not my concern is a Taurus he has fallen and he will find me at his doorstep now you know the full weight of my original concerns I must admit I was surprised that it was Isadora who succumbed I know you suspected me it takes either steel or lot to willingly condemn your whole world your very family to the village I sense the seed of chaos in your midst and you seemed too eager to uncover this planet secrets but I was so certain that taint stemmed from you that I failed to notice his true source in Isadora I was wrong captain we will discuss the matter another time Inquisitor for now we have an enemy who demands our ministrations you allowed me to take the stone you were true to your word and for that you are a fool better I keep the malla dictum with me you are too weak to stomach its gifts and now I will use its power to destroy you Lord Pei was likewise foolish and believed in me defenseless believe in himself in control make it stop the orcs thought more of their abilities than they did of me but I relied on their arrogance at my benefit alone please you however you old promise well for that I should let you die before you proved too great a threat but I have invested too much effort into you then and your century to prepare you would still be too late to stop me from achieving my glory now I must prepare attending to the captain's demise if you are capable what makes you think that I will do your bidding you have little jars you're kept in these crates delicious you more than anyone know that you will have to deal with him and that benefits me Oh thank you for delivering the mallet dictum you cannot abandon me now oh but I can and I do at least I leave you in good company now prove yourself worthy

will we suffer the existence of the heretic not now not ever you this disturbance is acting like a beacon for the warp storm accelerating its arrival we have little time left we must assume Sindri has

judgement on more people than you can imagine captain trust me you are not responsible for the feelings or strengths of others it is not a lot to test their purity we merely dispense the Emperor's
