In the forty-first millennium, the Cult Mechanicus endures (an empire of red-robed priests and soulless steel) kneeling before the cold divinity of the Machine Spirit. Across starless voids and ruined worlds, they seek knowledge buried in silence, reverence coded in blood and data. But even within logic's embrace, anomalies stir. One such anomaly bears a name; Hastatus Beta-7-174. A Skitarii Alpha. A relic. A weapon. A soul mistaken for code. And in a galaxy where devotion is survival and war is endless... one glitch can echo forever.
