History
Some of the Chapter's forces served in Indomitus Crusade Battle Group Kallides and fought the Necrons in the Pariah Nexus. There the Darkspires were part of the forces sent to defend Paradyce II and then end the siege of the Shrine World's city-sized Chancel. However, before the Battlegroup's forces reach the Chancel they were surrounded by the Necron. Despite being outnumbered, the Darkspires were somehow able to carve a path through the Xenos, which completely destroyed the Necron. This, alongside the successful attack led by the Sons of Orar, allowed the Battlegroup's forces to continue their advance. When the Darkspires were later asked how they accomplished this feat, though, they refused to answer.[1]
