→Behind the scenes
Pylons can be reduced to ruin through overloading them with massive amounts of [[Warp]] energy, such as an influx of [[Daemon]]s. During his Black Crusades, Abaddon hunted and destroyed pylon networks on planets near the Eye of Terror, thereby weakening the barrier between the Warp and realspace. During the 13th Black Crusade, he destroyed Cadia itself, and its pylon network with it. This caused the formation of the [[Great Rift]], which split the galaxy in two.
==Behind the scenesTrivia=={{trivia}}The pylons were first introduced in the novel ''Malleus'' by [[Dan Abnett]]. [[Eisenhorn ]] hunted a radical [[Inquisitor ]] named [[Quixos]], who believed the pylons on [[Cadia ]] held back the [[Eye of Terror ]] and could be made to close it altogether if amplified.{{citethis}}
