The '''{{PAGENAME}}''' was a battle during the [[Indomitus Crusade]].{{Fn|1a}}
===Overview===
The war saw the [[Word Bearers]] under [[Kor Phaeron]], aided by the [[Black Legion]] [[Sorcerer]] [[Tenebrus]], raid the [[Astropath]]ic Relay Station of [[Srinagar]] in a bid to discover the nature and location of the [[Star Child]]. After pushing aside the [[Imperial Navy]] vessels in orbit, Tenebrus and [[Pridor Vrakon]] led an assault of the surface to probe the minds of Astropaths there. Meanwhile in orbit, a [[Black Templars]] fleet alongside [[Racej Lucerne]] arrived, led by a vision. After a boarding operation, these were confronted by [[Xhokol Hruvak]] and his [[Khymerae]], killing [[Castellan (Black Templars)|Castellan]] [[Beorhtnoth]] before being slain in turn by Lucerne.{{Fn|1a}}
During the battle, nearly all the Black Templars of the [[Angevin Crusade (Black Templars)|Angevin Crusade]] were slain. In the final stages of the battle Lucerne revealed to the Black Templars [[Chaplain]] [[Mortian]] that he knew the truth of their Crusade's mutiny against their previous Marshal and their massacre of a [[Torchbearer Fleet]]. This caused the Chaplain to nearly kill Lucerne, though [[Neophyte]] [[Botho]] intervened and slew the traitor instead.{{Fn|1c}}
