THE STORY

Blackfire Forge is under siege. For seventeen days, faceless warriors have bombarded the walls of the forge, trying to break through its formidable defences and take the facility in the name of their god. Jarrah, a menial in the forge, may not know how to use the weapons that are attacking them, but he knows who built them: he and his fellow workers. For it is not an enemy of aliens or traitors who are at the walls: it is the Death Korps of Krieg, servants of the Imperium. Blackfire Forge has already fallen… and Jarrah prays the Emperor's forces can arrive in time to save him from those who would call themselves his allies.
