Fire of Heaven

"Into the jaws of death, Into the mouth of Hell"

- ~Unknown~

Fire of Heaven is a series of campaigns in the Mor sector conducted by the Imperium against the incoming tyranid fleets of Leviathan and Hydra.

This would one of the most significant campaigns of the region yet, its aftermath would barely leave any trace of its occurance. The Imperium will not respond proactively till Inquisitor Fidus Kryptman will rally his Ordos and all the resources to meet the threat in what now is labelled as the Third Tyrannic War.

Within the chapter it is referred to as the "Pyre of Mor" since the chapter lost 993 marines in the incident. This would lead to massive reorganization within the chapter particularly in terms of combat doctrine in the years to come.

History
The Imperium was expanding in the Southern fringe of its borders with Mechanicus and Imperial Expeditionary fleets colonizing and establishing Imperial rule in the cluster of 15 star systems that will be named as the Mor sector.

Separated from the closest contiguous Imperial presence by long warp jumps, the light of the Astronomicon tendriled its way in the ether in this region as the Master of Mankind

Jewel of Mor
Urit

The curtain of Silence
As the tendrils of the Hive Fleet close in on the Mor Sector, Xi-V was the first system in the sector to be fully encircled by the tendrils.

Here 30 Tower Sentinels will fall.
