| Humanity left the cradle. Naive and optimistic, they found a cruel universe. In the end, humanity was the cruelest of all. Those civilizations that would not be subjugated were purged. Left to squabble among themselves, humans became slothful and decadent.
|
| None were prepared for the coming of the Dahak. Known by many names, their arrival always meant death. Their conquest certain.
|
| In an unprecedented act of strategy and selflessness, the Emperor himself baited the trap. The ether of hyperspace was ignited and torn asunder. The Dahak fleet was destroyed, but their mindless drones remained entrenched on countless worlds.
|
| With the Emperor dead and the Imperium in ruins, the remnants of humanity were alone and isolated. At least they would survive.
|
| After uncounted years, a new Emperor has arisen. The turbulence in hyperspace is abating, and once again worlds fall under Imperial rule. For extraordinary service to the empire, knighthoods are granted and families elevated to nobility. It is their responsibility to cleanse the Dahak infestation, rebuild civilization, and reclaim the Imperium.
