The Embrace of Fire was an Imperial Navy Retribution Class Battleship, that served in Indomitus Crusade Fleet Quintus.[1a]
It was among the warships gathered for the initial launching of the Indomitus Crusade, but the Battleship was destroyed in a plasma drive mishap before the Crusade's fleets departed. The Embrace of Fire's death destroyed 6 other Quintus ships as well and Inquisitor Galen later discovered Imperial saboteurs were behind the Battleship's destruction[1a]. As the Embrace of Fire was the sister ship of Lord Commander Guilliman's flagship, the Dawn of Fire, he speculated that the saboteurs were sending him a symbolic message.[1b]
