However, sometime after the Great Rift's creation, the Knights of House Terryn and the Raven Guard Chapter sought to reclaim the world for the Imperium. Led by High King Tybalt, the Imperial forces initially met great success until the Great Unclean One Bolothrax appeared with an army of Nurgle's Daemons. Bolothrax sought revenge against House Terryn[1a] for a defeat he suffered when High Queen Desmadara Terryn led her Nobles and four other Knight Houses to victory against the Daemon Tide in M33[1b]. Eager to wipe out the Knights of Terryn, Bolothrax led his army against them and the Knights suffered heavy losses, while Tybalt was gravely wounded at the Great Unclean One's hands. Before the Knights could be destroyed, the Raven Guard lured the Tau Empire's forces into the battle and this allowed the surviving Imperial forces to escape off world. Now with the main targets of his wrath having fled, Bolothrax and his Daemon army have wasted no time in making the Tau of Shans'et suffer.[1a]
