Ordo Xenos Inquisitor '''Solomon Lok ''' was sent to the [[Beta Anphelion IVOrdo Xenos]] in 850.M41 after routine astropathic communication with a research station on the surface was broken. The [[Conclave of HarInquisitor]] suspected that the station had been used for proscribed and heretical activity by radical elements within charged with investigating the sudden loss of contact from a research facility on [[Adeptus MechanicusBeta Anphelion IV]] in 850.[[Departmento BiologisM41]].

Units assigned to Lok's command for He, the Beta Anphelion IV mission included:*[[CadianElysian Drop Troops]] 266th Regiment.*Special unit 99th 'D' Detachment (led by Major Durra), a detachment of the Cadian 226th, an [[Detachment D-99Adeptus Mechanicus]].*Adeptus Mechanicus Biologis Exploritas team led force headed by [[Magos]] Biologis Arthon, (seconded from forge world [[Gryphonne IV]].*) and a task force of the [[Red Scorpions]] space marine strike force comprised of elements from First Company chapter (led by Commander Caleb Carab Culln) went into orbit above the clouded moon.<br>

The [[Red Scorpions]] [[terminator]]s swept the three labs and the command facility. Magos Biologis Arthon and his team analysed the records and discovered what the facility's purpose truly was. It was built to find a way to counteract the rapid-evolution tendencies of [[Tyranid]] creatures. Huge areas spreading out from the labs were cut off from the outside. These were where the Tyranids had been kept. But for reasons unknown, the fence had failed. The Tyranids had escaped, overrunning the three hundred man garrison. When the terminators swept the lab complexes, they encountered [[genestealer]]s. Now there could be no question. The Tyranids were here.  The first order of buisiness was to reactivate the containment fences. The Elysians had the task of escorting a technical [[servitor]] to repair the generatorum. As the servitor and its guard reached the generatorum, the Tyranids attacked. The Elysians held off the Tyranids as the servitor repaired the generatorum. Back at the command facility Lok found in detail what had happened. The Tyranids had been small specimens. They had shown aggression at first. When the samples in one area had started to evolve wings, the area was purged. Then the Tyranids in another section vanished. A failure in the containment fence in the third section loosed the Tyranids upon the moon. The creatures had hid in the jungles and swamps until they reached sufficient numbers to overwhelm the labs' garrison of three hundred.  Meanwhile the Cadians at one of the lab complexes were attacked and overwhelmed, with them Biologis Arthon. At the command complex the Elysians were attacked from below by [[Ravener]]s and a [[Trygon]] (it should be noticed that this was the first time a Trygon was encountered in recorded history) and a force of Elysians and Cadians were attacked by Harridans. The Red Scorpion terminators attempted to return to the command complex but floating spore sacks caused them to crash-land. The rest of the [[chapter]]'s forces, in defiance of Lok travelled 's orders, set out to rescue the planet aboard terminators. They arrived to the clash and roars of battle; the terminators were surrounded. The releif column made a sucessful rescue and returned to base. They arrived in time to aid the garrison who had again come under attack. After the fight, the Red Scorpions received orders to evacuate themselves, and only themselves. The transport vessel Cephestus under Captain Mordinrequisitioned for the mission refused all of Lok's requests, stranding Lok and the small force of survivors on the moon as the Tyranids closed in. In the last battle, Lok succeeded in taking down an [[Hierophant]] Bio-titan, only to see two more stride out of the ammonia fog. Solomon Lok was an Ordo Xenos Inquisitor, veteran, notably, of the Chincare Hrud Infestation. His retinue consisted of Autosavant Wassily, who kept a log of the Anphelion incident to the end, Astropath Zarneck, who transmitted the log to Lord Varius, Lok's superior, a servo skull, and Major Durra, [[Detachment D-99]]. He died betrayed by his superiors and his faith.
