THE STORY
One of the earliest victories of the Tanith First was the capture of Sholen Skara, a magister of Chaos and servant of the Great Archon in the Sabbat Worlds. Now, more than a decade later, this dangerous heretic has escaped captivity and fled to the world of Valens 160. Sent to retrieve - or kill - him are warriors of the Iron Snakes Space Marines. As Squad Orpheon hunt their prey, they find that Skara's powers to turn men against the light of the Emperor have been at work on Valens 160 - and to defeat their enemy, they may need to sacrifice an entire world...
