On Frostheim the Battle of Morkai's Keep began in earnest when Harald Deathwolf led a [[Thunderwolf Cavalry]] assault on the Alpha Legion and Tzeentchian Daemon lies. Unknown to the Wolves, the Alpha Legion managed to activate the Keep's defenses and pummeled many Space Wolves gunships and incoming forces. As casualties climbed by the second, Lord Skayle appeared at the forefront of the slaughter, using his unnatural powers to massacre all before him as the tide of [[Chaos Space Marine]]s, Daemons, and [[Cultist]]s advanced. Thanks to the efforts of [[Wolf Scout]] [[Feingar]], the defenses of Morkai's Keep were disabled and the tide turned.{{Fn|1c}}
On Midgardia, the planet had become had a poisonous greenhouse dedicated to Nurgle. Egil Iron Wolf and Logan Grimnar himself led the reclamation of the planet. Grimnar divided his forces in two, one led by Iron Wolf to attack the Magma Gates and another led by himself to teleport directly into the caverns beneath where most of the world's population had lived. On both fronts they were assailed by the hordes of Nurgle, slowing their progress and overstretching their limited forces as the Daemons came on in limitless numbers. Grimnar and his [[Wolf Guard]] soon came into combat with the three of the four "[[Infernal TetardTetrad]]" [[Daemon Prince]]s: [[Mordokh]], [[Arkh'gar]], and [[Malyg'nyl]]. Soon all contact was lost with the Great Wolf himself.{{Fn|1c}}
On Valdrmani, [[Brother-Captain]] [[Stern]] led the assault to capture the dome-plex of Longhowl. They were opposed by two Tzeentchian Champions: [[Hekastis Nul]] and the last Infernal Tetard Tetrad Daemon Prince [[Tzen'char]] who had enslaved the worlds [[Astropath]]ic choir and bent it to the will of the Chaos Gods. Receiving reinforcements from the Space Wolves of [[Krom Dragongaze]], the Imperials pressed the attack. Krom and Stern reached the Astrophathic chamber just as Nul completed his ritual, turning it into a vision of hell. Stern slew Nul, but it was too late as waves of Daemons burst forth onto the planet led by Tzen'char. Stern and Krom managed to combine their efforts and strike down the Daemon Prince, causing the Daemonic host to be driven back into the Warp.{{Fn|1c}}
