Harbingers of Corruption
Veteran's of the Long War, it was the one thing that fueled your strength and resolve and the one thing that got you caught. Your seething hatred of all mankind. Long after the Horus Heresy has been decided, and the retreat of the fleeting corrupting armies of the Iron Warrior's, Black Legion and Death Guard; your frenzied hatred of all living followers of the False Emperor has clouded your awareness when the time to leave was then.
Staying behind and fighting till the very last vestige of malice coursed through your veins was depleted you later awake to find that you are nearly near death and it wasn't that you wouldn't keep on just that your body was physically near death's embrace.
Still somehow, life began as the fleeting moments seemed like an eternity as you lay there upon the battlefield of some unknown obscure planet that Horus Lupercal wanted for his power play and you believed in everything that your commanders told you of the champion primarch. Alas, your life flashed before your eyes as the constant droning of artillery fire and screams were muffled in the background.
In an instance, you awake chained and imprisoned within a penal colony. Something saved you from death and there maybe a whim of wondering why. Chained and shackled for so many centuries, allowing your hatred for the controlling efforts of the Imperium to have their way upon the many worlds of this universe.
To each your own reason why you believed the way you did and deeper hatred that festered and ruminated your mind as you mine the mining facilities of Solace. It's been so long since you seen the outside, any notion of escape is prevalent but more importantly how and when for that matter the plan was to be executed.
All of you were from other parts of the verse. Each of you facing life in prison for crimes against mankind. Usually in those cases, punishment was swift and severe. Casting heresy to the prisoner, thrice binding them and ending their lives. But there was something sinister at work here. A darker and deeper conspiracy for being alive. It may or may not have been at the forefront of your mind but somebody needs you alive. Why would an escape free penal colony have all the things needed to escape or maybe it was your grandiose design.
