The Rock, also known as the Tower of Angels, is the legendary home and [[fortress-monastery]] of the [[Dark Angels]] Space Marine [[Chapter]]. It is thought to be a remnant of [[Caliban]] itself. The Rock travels around the galaxy and visits most of the Dark Angels' recruiting world, and the [[Watchers in the Dark]] patrol its halls; an example of a Watcher is the small hooded being that follows Supreme Grand Master [[Azrael]] around, carrying the [[Lion Helm]].
Deep within the bowels of the Rock are cells in which the [[The Fallen|Fallen Angels]] are held. It is believed that [[Luther]] is imprisoned there, kept alive over 10,000 years after his costly betrayal of the Dark Angels. It Luther rants and raves, claiming that he has no need of repentance or confession, for the Lion - who he claims is also said that near - will soon return and absolve him. <sup>1</sup> Ubeknownst to any, the "sleeping" body of [[Lion El'Jonson]] is hidden in the heart of the Rock, guarded by the Watchers. Luther continually babbles on, saying that the Lion is near and that he will awaken soon.<sup>2</sup>
