Campaign 1 - Part 2

The Tide Comes In

It would have been poetic if the Silence had ended with some fanfare, tragedy or Chaos…but in truth, it was nothing as dramatic.

At first, nobody was aware the Silence had ended - until the first Astropathic messages reached the unprepared and idle Astropaths. It was a slow, sleepy awakening for those who had spent nearly a year with little news from the great outside, and little to fear but the threats inside.

The Ordos Prosperitas sought answers, but, to this day, are still no closer to working out its cause. The commonly held belief lays blame on a Warp Surge, suggesting that perhaps the strange realm that houses the Darkness, and is informally known as “the Prison”, had reacted to the tidal energies of the Eye, and projected a Sector-wide anti-Warp field, to protect itself from intrusion. Such a reaction would imply some degree of guiding sentience behind the workings of the Prison, making the Ordos have resolutely decided it would be better if the Adeptus Mechanicus not bound to the Inquisition were not informed of this particular theory for a myriad of reasons.
