The '''Bell of Lost Souls''' is sounded when a great hero of the Imperium diesor a [[Grey Knights|Grey Knight]] falls in battle{{Fn|4a}}. It is located on [[Terra]] at the peak of the [[Tower of Heroes]]. It is ancient, like most of the equipment on Terra, and as big as a building. It is also covered in runes and its sound is said to be like the scream of an anguished god that lasts for a long time and reaches the ears of millions of the inhabitants of Terra.<sup>{{Fn|1</sup>}} When rung, servents that maintain the bell must be sealed in reinforced shelters in order to prevent their eardrums from rupturing, followed by their death from lung rupture and embolism.{{Fn|4a}}
The bell was rung one thousand times to honour each dead marine when the [[Fire Hawks]] [[Chapter]] was lost.<sup>{{Fn|2,</sup> <sup>}}{{Fn|3</sup>}}
