==Location==
Cadia has a special and honoured place in the history of Mankind. Cadia stands upon the edge of the [[Eye of Terror]] within a narrow corridor of stable space called the Cadian Gate. This forms the one and only predictable passage between the Chaos infested daemon worlds of the Eye of Terror and Terra. No battle fleet of any size can rely upon other unstable passages and must pass through the Cadian Gate. Cadia is therefore one of the most strategically important planets of the galaxy.<sup>6</sup>
Cadia is equally important to the [[Chaos|Enemies of Man]], as it is the location of [[Lorgar|Primarch Lorgar's]] fall to Darkness. On Cadia the [[Word Bearers]] met [[Ingethel the Chosen]] and became inducted into the service of the Four Powers.<sup>7</sup>
