Phoenicus Peak
From Warhammer 40k - Lexicanum
Phoenicus Peak is a mountain located on the planet Kolagar.[1]
At one point it was the site of an Imperial monastery. However, it was later used as a nesting ground by a warclade of Sslyth who were supporting a series of Chaos uprisings across the Vensine Sector. A Deathwatch Kill-Team led by Sergeant Decurius was sent to exterminate the xenos and their breeding chambers using specialised virus bombs but were only partially successful. The surviving Sslyth fled into the Blackwine Delta and the task of wiping them out fell to the Astra Militarum, as Decurius's Kill-Team was needed elsewhere.[1]
