Ferrovigilum was an asteroid-fortress located in the Metalica System. A vital defensive barrier before reaching Metalica itself, it also served as the system's primarily Astropathic relay station.[1a]
During the Charadon Campaign, the Metalica System was invaded by the forces of Chaos spearheaded by the Death Guard forces.[1b] During the invasion, the fortress was overwhelmed by the Titans of Legio Morbidus, commanded by Balequeen Lathfyr the Drowned, leading a host of Chaos Knights.[1b][2] As the fortress fell the psychic choir at its heart detonated, leaving few survivors.[2]
