The world Legitur is sanctified by the Holy Scriptures of the Imperial Faith. Its gigantic paper cities produce endless amounts of religious texts and stand as a paragon of piety and loyalty to the Empire. But in the shadows lie secrets that even the Ecclesiarchy does not know of – and one creature, born of these dark truths.
Cerastes, Dark Apostle of the Word Bearers, returns to his former home planet. Although his forces have been crushed by the relentless Palatine Aesura and her Sororitas from the Order of the Thorn, Cerastes’ ambition remains intact. He seeks vengeance. He will resurrect Eightfold Bane. And he will convert all of Legitur to the worship of Chaos.
Legitur faces a brutal truth: The word comes – and it will burn the world in the flames of revolution.
