Night Terror (Ark of Omen)
The Night Terror is one of the Black Legion's Arks of Omen.[1]
History
During its journey to find a Key-Fragment, the Space Hulk and its Balefleet journeyed into the Imperium Nihilus' Saganas Belt. In order to defend the Belt's Agri Worlds, the Blood Angels Chapter Master, Dante, led a strike force to combat the Night Terror's Balefleet. When they found the Space Hulk, however, the Night Terror was drifting lifelessly and its fleet had been destroyed. Upon entering it, the Blood Angels found the dead bodies of numerous Chaos Space Marines and Cultists, who had died by bolt rounds and blades. They also discovered that the Night Terror's insides contained sulfurous reside and the withered remains of widespread biomechanical infestation, mingled with traces that bizarrely resembled wilted plant life. Though they searched for several days, the Blood Angels could find no further clues about what befell the Space Hulk and its Balefleet. With its threat now mysteriously ended, Dante ordered samples taken from the Night Terror to be analyzed and then led his warriors back to their warships. However he was determined to learn more of this ominous occurrence.[1]
