As reinforcements arrived, including [[Imperial Guard Regiment|Astra Militarum regiments]], [[Adeptus Arbites]], and a [[Space Marine Company|company]] of [[Imperial Fists]], the true assault on Hive Secundus began. The hive was fortified and key infrastructure and tunnels were destroyed. The Imperial Fists, under [[Space Marine Captain|Captain]] [[Vorgn]], began constructing a vast defensive perimeter, which eventually became known as the [[Dust Wall]].{{Fn|1d}}
For over a decade, the war to retake Hive Secundus raged, transforming its once-beautiful landscape into a bloody battleground, while the surrounding wasteland became a desolate wasteland. Despite several breakout attempts by the xenos cult, Secundus remained contained, but it became clear that the hive could not be reclaimed. The [[Malstrain Patriarch]] grew stronger, infecting millions of hivers with its alien spawn.{{Fn|1e}} During this tumultuous time, as the hordes of cultists rampaged and on the verge of complete takover, many of the [[Gangs]] of the Underhive, unable to escape to the surface, would try and find other routes of escape ancient and forgotten city-sized tunnels buried beneath the hive known only to a handful of [[Ratskins]].{{Fn|13}}
