After seizing power of the Carrion Lords, Archon Morrigan Calruin needed to consolidate his rule with a true feast of agony to sate the questionable loyalty of his remaining Kabal. Fortunately, sources highlighted a weak world barely defended by the dregs of a genetically deviant chapter of Astartes. Geneseed for the Haemonculi, gladiators for the Wyches and slaves for the Kabal, it was too tempting to ignore.

The raid had been an unbridled success, with Kabalites spilling forth from Raiders to secure important objectives while Scourges and Ravagers poured fire upon Astartes armour until a counterattack came.

Screaming sermons to his men, a Chaplain fought his way to Calruin and his squad. Every strike of his Crozius slaughtered another Kabalite, but it didn't matter; this prize would be the Archons alone.

His Shadowfield shrouding him from the clumsy swings of the impetuous Chaplain, the Archons Huskblade soon found the flesh of the righteous warrior. First, Calruin took his hands at the wrist before gutting the defenceless Chaplain and finally striking his head from his body. The tortured soul of his victim flowed into his Soul Trap with a shiver of delight before Calruin ordered his Raiders crew to retrieve the body; the Haemonculi could turn this creature into something most amusing.

Their holds bursting with slaves, warriors invigorated and a plum prize taken, the Kabal of the Carrion Lords left the world as fast as they arrived, making for the Dark City with howls of delight.
