History
At one point Gedron II was hit by thousands of meteors thrown by the bio-ships of Hive Fleet Jormungandr. The vast redoubt fortresses that protect Gedron II's hives destroyed many of the meteors and the rest fell into the world's ocean.[1]
Jormungandr's bio-ships retreated soon afterwards and Gedron II's Planetary Governor declared the invasion was over. Several months later, however, swarms of Tyranids burst from Gedron II's ocean and entered the lower levels of the world's fortifications. The Tyranids slaughtered anyone they came across and as Gedron II's PDF scrambled to react to the attack, long-range scans detected that Jormungandr's bio-ships had returned to attack the Hive World again.[1]
