Changes

A veteran [[Chaplain]] of the [[Third Hand]] [[Chapter]], Kurtha fought at the forefront of the [[Great Crusade]]. He became known for his boundless drive, faith, and heroism. During his Legion's worship of the [[Emperor of Mankind|Emperor]], he was told by [[Lorgar]] himself that the Master of Mankind was watching and taking notice of him. He later fought alongside the [[Ultramarines]] against [[Orks]] in [[Ultima Segmentum]], gaining the friendship of 19th Company [[Space Marine Captain |Captain ]] [[Steloc Aethon]] of the [[19th Company (Ultramarines Legion)|19th Company]].{{Fn|1}}

However , after his Legion's censure at [[Monarchia]], Kurtha Sedd's sanity began to slip. Shortly after this, his despair and rage drove him to massacre a group of pilgrims within a prayer hall. Remembering Lorgar's words, Kurtha became panicked that the Emperor had witnessed his shame and became certain that retribution would come. However , retribution never came, and his Legion's officers covered up the incident. Having come to realize that the Emperor was not an omnipresent, divine being, Kurtha renounced his faith. He pledged to undo the works of the False-Emperor just as his Legion itself fell into the corruption of [[Chaos]]. His fanaticism led him to be selected by [[Kor Phaeron]] to lead a portion of the Word Bearers contingent against the Ultramarines in the [[Battle of Calth]]. Upon hearing that he would see his old friend Aethon again, this time as an enemy, Kurtha felt a twinge of regret but this was nothing compared to his burning hatred.{{Cite This}}
