The Salvation of Svard

Type: Grand Endeavour

Goal: Bring Svard back from the brink of destruction

For dozens of generations we have been in the Koronus Expanse. We were here when the Imperium discovered its path inside, and despite our faith in the Emperor we did not bow to the pressure of the Battlefleet because we believed in the Hos Dynasty. We believed that you would return to us, and you would not find us wanting. Now you have come, and we must beg of you. Do not let us end like this – Speaker Hermiod Tal

Objective 1: Reclaim Cog

Breakdown
  • The menial workers on Cog were reported to have rebelled, and Magos Zinoviev Tevla demands that they all be put down before the Forge Moon resumes operations.
Result
  • SUCCESS: Explorator Felicis identified the Xenos Constructs known as Crystalwisps in the facility, which led to a breakdown in trust between the Mechanicus and Svardic personnel. Once the Crystalwisps were neutralized, order was restored to the planet.
Reward
  • Cog is now back under Svard control and can provide advanced manufacturing facilities to the system.
  • Thousands on Svard have nobly volunteered to sell themselves into servitude to the Mechanicus in order to get the Forge Moon operational again.

Objective 2: Reclaim Kybu

Breakdown

The Magos Biologis moon of Kybu has gone dark, and requires investigating.

Reuslt

FAILED: This was not investigated. Magos Isabella Stein instituted complete biological purge of the facility for reasons unknown.

Objective 3: Reclaim the Citadel of Psykers.

Breakdown
Result
  • SUCCESS: The Wardens themselves had fallen under the sway of whatever was in the Svard system, but Eckhart brought them down before their rampage could be completed.
Reward
  • The Citadel of Psykers is low on available personnel, but is still functional enough to be operational. The system feature is restored to full power.
  • Warden Riek was captured alive, and shows signs of Xenotech tampering inside of his mind.

Objective 4: Reclaim Exclusion

Breakdown
  • The Imperial Envoy had ordered the Arbites to not assist, and the bulk of their forces had withdrawn. The prisoners rebelled against being abandoned, and the Arbites Senioris was killed in the confusion. The new facility head demanded the prisoners be put to death.
Result
  • SUCCESS: Arch-Militant Caine successfully persuaded the Arbites to execute only those directly responsible for the death of the Senioris, resume their commitment to protecting Svard and release the remainder of the prisoners.
Reward
  • Exclusion is now back under Svard control and providing law enforcement support to the capital.
  • Many of the Svard nobility and other families are welcoming back their children, and are kindly-disposed towards the Hos Dynasty.

Objective 5: Reclaim Silence

Breakdown
  • Cedrick Frohwein and his group of artists have gone out of contact, and the Ecclesiarchical mission as well as the ancient records of Svard must be recovered.
Result
  • SUCCESS: Whatever force murdered the artists in question has been dealt with, and the facility is now cleared of warp taint.
Reward

Objective 6: Reclaim the Hollow Worlds

Breakdown
  • The only surviving Svard Mining Transport will require escorting to the Hollow Worlds so that raw materials can once more flow back into the worlds.
Result
Reward
  • The Hollow Worlds have begun producing materials again for the populace.
  • More vessels can be restored or repaired.

Objective 7: Reclaim the Promethium Installations

Breakdown
  • The last Promethium Installation in Svard is one of the areas where the rebellion officially began, and it requires retaking so that the precious fuel can be generated for the system again.
Result

Reward
  • Svard can once again honour its mining and refuelling contacts.
