Dwell is a world of the Imperium. It was settled some time during the Dark Age of Technology by settlers from Molech. Consisting of many fortified towns, orbital platforms, and spaceports, it was brought into the Imperium without bloodshed by Roboute Guilliman in 977.M30. The world was found to harbor a network of esoteric warp technologies of potentially xenos origin which predates the Age of Strife. The network was found to preserve and combine the memories and knowledge of Dwell's people upon death.[3] This network was called the Mausolytic Precinct. [1]

During the Horus Heresy it was the site of a major battle and was left a smoldering ruin.[1] It contained a repository of information that led Horus to Molech in search of the origin of the Emperor's power. While attempting to access the information, an Iron Hand strike team consisting of fire raptors ambushed the traitors. The strike team managed to severely wound Horus and Mortarion while Fulgrim used his newly obtained Daemon Prince powers to resist the attack.[2]
