Death Unto Darkness Episode 2: The Road to Ruin
Tori’Goran III was once a pleasant agri-world in Prosperitas Sub-Sector Secundus. Then the heresy started. Like most heresies, it started small. This one began in the capital city of Gorus and started with a cult appeared calling itself ‘The Emperor’s Grace’. It seemed innocent enough, but rumours of despicable acts began to spread - of dark gods, rituals and sacrifice. The Inquisition tried to stamp it out, but by then the corruption had spread too far. Indeed it emanated out from Gorus, spreading like a tidal wave across the planet surface.
High Inquisitor Bradagus (Ordo Hereticus), safe aboard a ship in orbit simply declared the planet too unimportant to be worth the Imperial lives or the Astartes time needed to save it. The heresy was too far spread, and there was only one logical order to give - Exterminatus. But Planetary Governor Nielson begged for time stating that the heresy could be fought and driven back. Somehow the Inquisitor and the Governor came to agreement (although what favours were traded is unknown). Nielson was granted a short time to rescue the planet before the final order would be issued.
Nielson promptly called in the Imperial Guard. The brave men and women of the Venian 167th were sent to cleanse the planet and drive the forces of chaos back. And for a while, it looks like things were going well. But then the entire Venian regiment just... vanished. Soon after, reports started to come back from the forests, stating that the Venians had turned traitor.
Seemingly driven by desperation and panic, Governor Nielson started called in more favours, wanting to solve this problem before Bradagus noticed and nuked his planet. The elite and heroic troops of the Argenurium 26th came to his aid and they and the Governor disappeared into the forests in search of the rogue Venians.
Unfortunately for Nielson, Inquisitor Bradagus -had- noticed. But Bradagus decided to hold off from issuing Exterminatus just yet and decided to send an expedition as well. And so five months after their adventures on Caracas, the brave ‘but unacknowledged’ heroes of that expedition are once again called into service. Old and new faces will work together once more. The mission is to find and eliminate the treachorous Venian 167th and if possible to cleanse this world of chaos before the Inquisitor runs out of patience and nukes the lot. But really, only one thing matters... Will they beat the Argenurium 26th to the goal?
