Kreen Scar

The Kreen Scar is a region of Ultima Segmentum

The Scar was originally known as the Kreen Worlds before its assault by the Chaos Knight House Herpetrax. Stretching for 100 light years, these worlds served as vital industrial hub in Ultima Segmentum. Despite the efforts of the Imperial Guard and Adeptus Mechanicus, the Chaos advance progressed with staggering speed. The denizens of worlds enslaved and put to work excavating the foundations beneath the towering hive cities. Billions die in the process, but on several of these planets the Chaos overlords uncover what they are searching for. The long-forgotten remains of ancient Dark Age of Technology ships are pulled from the earth. These precious cargoes are taken back to Jedathra, while the surviving slave populations are exterminated by

orbital bombardment. Over the

course of a generation, the belt of Imperial manufacturing worlds was transformed into a ruined and lifeless stretch now known as the Kreen Scar.^[1]
