He and his eager forces, have been charged with bringing the light of the Imperium back to the Galaxy, one world at a time if need be. During the course of doing so, he was quickly approached by the Light of Honour's Chief Astropath, Sethica, who had just received[1a] an urgent message.[1c] She did not know who sent it, but believed it was a warning of an upcoming attack on an Imperial world, by a blood-red warrior bearing a black claw. Sethica then gave images associated with the world and Katra thought the message referred to[1a] the Invaders Chapter's Homeworld Ogrys.[1b] The blood-red warrior's identity eluded him, but Sethica had been born on Badab Primaris and believed the warrior was[1a] the Red Corsair Warband's commander Huron Blackheart.[1b]
With this information presented to him, Katra[1a] contacted the Ultramarines Chapter[1c] which assembled a strike force in response.[1b] The Force Captain and Sethica's interpretation of the message[1a] was proven correct when the strike force arrived at Ogrys, shortly after the Red Corsairs had begun their attack upon it. The Chaos Warband was caught by surprise by the strike force's sudden invasion and retreated from Ogrys shortly afterwards.[1b] With that, not only was the Invaders's Homeworld saved, but the Ultramarines reclaimed the Battle Barge Macragge's Honour, which had been captured by the Red Corsairs.[1c]
