History
At the dawn of the Great Crusade, a bloody campaign took place on Lorin Alpha, in which Titans of the Legio Audax took part. Аfter that event, the Legio were removed to the training world of Bodt, where the World Eaters Legion was concentrated.[2a]
During the Horus Heresy, Lorin Alpha was the site of a major battle between the White Scars and Emperor's Children that saw the traitors victorious with the arrival of a Dark Mechanicus fleet.[4]
In 118.M33 an infamous string of riots and madness known as the Hour of Shadow engulfed the entire world. Chapter Master Khardin Gol of the Black Wings Chapter was killed, along with numerous Lords of the Imperium. Later the Black Wings learned that it was the machinations of the Tenebrae, a Chaos Warband, and swore an eternal vendetta against these Chaos worshipers.[3b]
