'''Kraken''' was the second major [[Tyranid]] [[Hive Fleet]] to invade the [[galaxy]]. It was responsible for the '''Second Tyrannic War''', occurring in 993.[[M41]].
The invasion began 250 years after the last Tyrannic War and the destruction of the hive fleet ''[[Behemoth]]''. An armed presence had been maintained in the galactic southeast, which members of [[Terra|Earth]]'s [[Administratum]] began to question the need for, arguing that Behemoth had been the sum total of the Tyranid race. When worlds along the eastern fringe began to erupt in rebellion, terrorism, riots and sabotage, the same [[adept]]s claimed the people were dissatisfied with living amid an armed camp.Among the first worlds known to be consumed by '''Kraken''' were [[Sotha]], [[Miral]], [[Graia]] and [[Radnar]].{{Fn|7}}
Among the first worlds known to be consumed by '''Kraken''' were [[Sotha]], [[Miral]], [[Graia]] and [[Radnar]].{{Fn|7}} The [[Inquisition]] became suspicious of the adepts' dissent and their downplaying of the situation, and began an investigation, which established that all of the dissenting adepts had either come from the southeastern region or had travelled there at some time. This was the only link between the members that could be found, and some had never even met each other. Inquisitors were also deployed from [[Talasa Prime]] to investigate the planets of the [[Ultima Segmentum]] who were displaying their anger. Purges were made within the Imperium, especially on Terra, focused on suspected traitors, who had had contact with the Eastern Fringe. Tens of thousands of suspected traitors were sent to prison colonies.
