Blood in the Skies, Pt 3

The cold of Chaac’s arctic north was biting and frigid, and would surely sap the strength of the unprotected like a leak in a seaborn ship. Fortunately, Space Marines were offered the best protection humanity could afford, and so the Sky Kings rode unabated through the torrent. Scouts rode ahead of the main force, and all reported the same thing; their path was clear for now, which did not mean much given the modus operandi of the Bleeding Seraphim, but the terrain was to the benefit of the attackers. The ice shelf hardly had anything in the way of cover or hills to speak of, and the ground beneath them was volatile and unstable

Blood in the Skies: Durandal Unleashed

‘Ave Imperator.’ The Angra Mainyu was mostly silent. Since the Sky Kings had entered the system, they had largely ignored the seemingly abandoned carrier as it listed lazily in orbit. Its dark, blackened hull devoid of any of the Bleeding Seraphim’s livery had allowed the ship to escape the space war and remain unscathed. It always was apart from the standard fleet, a cold observer until its cargo was called for. It waited, quietly, patiently, it waited. The Angra Mainyu waited until it could at last purge itself once more of its sins. As the next battle with the Sky Kings loomed on the horizon below, its waiting came

The location of the crashed Knight Crusader, as initial reports indicated the class that it was, had landed in a sort of graveyard. The lost city of Karjal-ai had suffered horribly from the plague that had ravaged Chaac, and the local Militarum and Adeptus orders had to take extreme measures to ensure efficiency, and their force was met with force in kind by revolt. Centuries old bleached bones were strewn in the streets by the dozen, either curled and hunched painfully from where the plague had destroyed their bodies, or scattered in crumpled positions where they were shot, stabbed, or blown away. The buildings themselves were a me

Blood in the Skies, Pt 1

When the Sky Kings came, they came exactly how the Bleeding Seraphim predicted; the question was never “how,” but “when” and “where.” Although probing attacks were launched across the perimeter, in the Endless Highlands was where the most ferocious attack came from. Through the scattered trees, over the few small hills, and across the ruins of the ancient settlement, the roaring of the bikes of the hunting force was like the bellowing of warhorns of ancient days. The Tactical Squads of the Bleeding Seraphim that were stationed there at the ruins of the old Al’juna settlement – a scant

One by one, the Astartes entered the occult room and found their seats upon the round table. There were no words exchanged between them, not yet; the gravitas of the impending situation still weighed heavy upon their minds. The room where the Seraphim gathered was gloomy, and mostly unlit, save for a few candles on the walls, and the faint light that emitted behind the stained glass mosaics on three sides of the cylindrical room. These depicted ancient battles of the Bleeding Seraphim against alien horrors and hated traitors, half historical accounts and half fabled myths, and it is questioned by the few who have seen this room how muc

Legacy of Sorrow

A wise Eldar once said to feel the rush of the wind against one’s skin and hear her keening cry in one’s ears. He said to heed her call well, speaking to his Windrider host, for they are the children of the storm. Although he was not of the Fireheart clan with the chieftain who spoke those words, Stryker Snakesting felt every bit the same in this moment as those clansmen must have. On his own Skyrunner jetbike, the Saim-Hann Warlock cut across the city like an arrow of Kurnous, his kindred of clan Snakesting close behind. They were long beyond worrying about any subtlety in their approach, and their speed assured that they
