All the fringes of the sector of space known as the Halo Stars, subsector of Misiqornum, is in turmoil.

Zenos invaders from all sides have cut off those of mankind who live there, as the aliens known as the Drukari have seized the planet called Cape Cornu, which houses the only known passage

from one part of the subsector to the other. Desperate for any aid from the Imperium

at large, the Order Zeno of the Holy Inquisition arrived with an equally desperate

a Gretchen named Urgrat, and Goldie the Squig, who are all supposed to aid the rogue trader with a sizable orc presence that is reported to be in the subsector.

These operatives would all meet unceremoniously in an Arvus lighter transport ship, where after quick introductions,

they would venture into the summer home of the late Captain Carnitius to retrieve the deed

to his former ship. Inside, they would learn of the so-called vessel that led the late Lord Captain's demise.

Shortly after, they would be ambushed by Xenos, known as the Tyrannids.

After bending them off, Jerichus saw them take a strange psychic interest in Captain Lupus before they retreated.

Immediately after the combat, the group would sign their names onto the deed of the ship,

and therefore after signaling for a pickup.
