The Crusade for Cillveshan 5S57

 


  
Close to the Cicatrix Maledictum lies the outlying system of Cillveshan.  Long held to be a backwater imperial world, little thought was given by any force in the galaxy to its well-being or defense.  Even Orks passed it by on their great Waagh in favor of more impressive systems and worlds.  That is, until this message was received;

 

Lord Guilliman, any protector of the imperium, hear our desperate plea.

Our world is beset by forces we do not understand, nor can we contend with.  Mass paranoia, panic in the streets, death, destruction everywhere.

But in our local system, we have found a subs*&$^%#@(*&^7987.  It seems to allow ships tjkh3nmbsd&^*$$#& through the war*&%^#^BNVGFDX without interfe&^%@HJGFUYT of warpsto(*^$HGCDRSDJH.  Our Adeptus Mech&%&EDGFCH  (*^$%JCVieves this substa^&%#$% will allow warp Trans*&%&%#CTRS of the Gell%^$GFCG fields.  We have stored samp(*^^R&*HGVHGFD of ()*&GJHF$E*&%tance in the Hive of &^$&^RGHFCHGCTD  

 

  Even the hint of a method to abate or combat the warp storms was enough for the imperium to send a scout team of Imperial Fists to investigate.  Perhaps others heard the message as well.  The last message from the imperial ship reported that augur scans of the planet showed no life forms.  The Marines went to investigate, and a message was sent three weeks later via Vox broadcast and Astropathic open traffic.

 

This is Sergeant Keston of the Imperial Fists.  Cillveshan must immediately be declared off limits to all ships of the Imperium.  There is only death here, brother kills brother, madness, insanity.  I am locked in the Strategium.  The human crew has all killed each other.  Except for the ones who set the warp engines to explode.  The rear of the ship is torn off and we are plummeting to the planet.   Yes, there is something down there that has an effect on the warp, but it also spreads madness and death.  I watched Tyranids forget about my squad and kill each other.  Orks slew each other with madness beyond even their ken.  Exterminatus this planet from far orbit, it’s the only way to be sure.

For the Emperor!

 

So, naturally, the imperium and a host of other races have decided to investigate further…
