Lathimon's Death is a Dead World, that is located in the region of the Koronus Expanse known as the Accursed Demesne.[1]


Overview

Lathimon's Death orbits one of the Cineris Malificum; a string of star embers surrounded by shells of thinned star-matter cast out from their ancient demise. This chill world, upon which Faith Lathimon and a hundred others died in ways that were never recorded, bears great cyclopean structures, columns, and avenues spread across its darkened surface, so worn and covered by the dusts of time that they appear to be hills and valleys. Only a few are said to have visited this dread world, their names including Balastus Irem, slain by the Inquisition, and Rafe Longinus and Eduard Majessus, who vanished without a trace into the dark regions of the Koronus Expanse.[1b]

The Warsphere Shek, which spawned the Tuskbreakers, floats amongst its own debris near here. Though capable of supporting the Kroot population inhabiting it, it rarely travels and always returns to the site of its ancient battle with the Orks.[2]
