tYRELL: Barren
asteroid locked in elliptical orbit. Limited space ports available
Colonel Wissen left his men
playing dice, stooped under the low compound doorway and out under
the dark, starry sky of Tyrrell: outermost planet of the Kerflon
System – and, Wissen noted as he spat into the bone dry dust –
little more than an asteroid such as they had back in his home
system of Crinan. He grew up on a crappy rock like this. Mined it
for adamantium and relzor. That was until he had joined up of
course.
Wissen’s first posting had been
on Ulant, in the Scarus Sector. It was there that they’d been put
through the mincer. Also where he’d lost his right arm, to the
undercut of a chaos cultist. The wound wouldn’t have been so bad if
there had been proper treatment, but the planet was in chaos. The
Crinan IVth had barricaded themselves in to the governor’s palace
and held out for three months against cultists and greenskins. Then
the greenskins started attacking the cultists. That was what had
saved them. Regardless –
Wissen had left his right arm behind, and most of the men he had
joined up with. In the ten thousand men of the Crinan IVth had been
reduced to a paultry 3567. There was no time to rest of course,
just time to refill their numbers with fresh recruits from Crinan.
And then they’d been posted on again. To a listening post on the
dark side of this bloody rock.
Wissen checked on his sentries.
He couldn’t think why there needed to be such a large army presence
on this place – but the cog priests were up to something. He’d seen
them around with their half-human dogs. There was no love lost
between the cog priests and the men of the IVth. The Crinan priests
warned them against fraternising with the idolaters and Wissen was
happy to pass on that order. They’d been promised a crusade next,
Wissen thought as he ducked back inside. There were rumours that a
crusade was being raised to drive Abbadon from Cadia. Wissen’s
mouth salivated at the chance to kill heretics. He prayed that he
and his men would be permitted to join in that venture.... read
