On the black sands of the Urgall Depression, the Retribution Fleet came to Isstvan V to make Horus answer for his crimes. Nobody aboard suspected how deep the rot had spread. When the guns of supposed allies turned on the landing Legions, the Horus Heresy truly began, and some Legions would never recover from the slaughter that followed.
