[[Image:gk2.jpg|thumb|left|Grey Knights]]Just before the Second Founding, the [[Imperium]] was still reeling in shock from the recent galactic civil war, and very vulnerable. The [[Emperor]] ordered the creation of a 'secret chapter' of the [[Adeptus Astartes]]: chapter six-hundred-and-sixty-six. The gene-seed for this chapter is strongly suspected to have been taken from the Emperor directly. After their creation, the chapter was assigned to the [[Ordo Malleus]] as their [[Chamber Militant]]. The name of this chapter has become legend, and is feared throughout the galaxy by those it opposes, and is whispered in reverence by all those it protects: the Grey Knights.
