Not all in the Imperium are enthused by primarch Roboute Guilliman’s return – and some would question the authority of his allies, even if it may lead to armed conflict.

READ IT BECAUSE
Get a glimpse at how the Imperium remains fractious and divided even under Roboute Guilliman’s leadership in a sinister tale with some shocking twists and turns.

THE STORY
In the wake of the Great Rift, hope has returned to the Imperium in the form of Roboute Guilliman, the Emperor’s son. Yet not all servants of the Emperor wish to answer to the primarch’s authority… When Inquisitor Cehen-qui receives an order to transfer an alien prisoner to the custody of Guilliman’s ally, the visionary – or possibly heretical – Magos Belisarius Cawl, he refuses. But will he stand down when the tech-priest’s forces arrive, ready to take the xenos by force?

Inquisitor Cehen-qui isn’t best pleased to receive orders to hand off a xenos prisoner to one of Cawl’s lieutenants, Magos Qvo-87, so refuses and hunkers down in an abandoned Ordo Xenos void station to defend his prize. Undeterred, Qvo deploys his forces – including Alpha Primus, a Space Marine of ambiguous origins and unusually dour demeanour – to press the issue.
