'''Silence''' was a massive two-handed battle scythe, which was the personal weapon of the [[Primarch]] [[Mortarion]]. It was noted as being one of the most fearsome blades wielded by any of the Primarchs - though there were dark whispers that the weapon had a [[Xeno]]-tainted origin. Some familiar with the legend of the [[Death Guard]] Primarch's early life, believe that Silence was once the weapon of the terrible creature that named himself Mortarion's ''Father''.{{Fn|1}}
Millenia later during the [[Thirteenth Black Crusade]], Mortarion still used Silence as his personal weapon while he invaded [[Ultramar]] in the [[Plague Wars]]. Despite being constantly surrounded by the filth of [[Nurgle]]'s followers, the weapon always remains surprisingly clean and is still as sharp as ever.{{Fn|2}}
