The Shrine Worlds Crusades are over, the Rubicon Primaris has been crossed. Chastised by Guilliman, the Primarch Returned, and guided by a vision from the holy God-Emperor himself, High Marshal Helbrecht is called to the ruinworld of Hevaran. Forged in the fires of the scouring, Hevaran is sacred in its desolation, condemned to never rebuild... yet hidden upon its barren surface is a sacred relic. Questing to reclaim it without fleets or armies, with but a few select souls to aid him, Helbrecht must trust in his skill, his wrath and his faith as an ancient enemy returns to test him as never before.
