Bringer of Sorrow

A Horus Heresy story

The webway war is over, the Blood Angels have arrived on Terra and preparations for the final battle have begun. But can Arkhan Land solve a problem and fix the issues that stop the Blood Angel Zephon from fighting alongside his brothers once more?


READ IT BECAUSE

The deliciously amoral tech-priest Arkhan Land was one of the highlights of The Master of Mankind, and this story delves further into exactly what he's willing to do in order to solve a tricky problem – and what consequences can arise from his actions.



THE STORY

At the height of the Webway War, renowned Mechanicum technoarchaeologist Arkhan Land ventured into that alien labyrinth in defence of the Imperium. At his side was a wounded warrior of the Blood Angels, Zephon. Now, Land faces a great challenge – to repair the damage done to Zephon, partly as a result of the tech-priest's own tinkering. But how can Land succeed where the greatest of Apothecaries have failed? And when all is done, will the only person the tech-priest comes close to calling friend still be the same man?
