→History
In [[M42]] the ark is now largely deserted with only a few tens of thousands of crew on the vessel. After taking part in the main crusade of the [[Indomitus Crusade]] Cawl had given the majority of his military assets to [[Fleet Primus]], most of Cawl's many magi clades had been despatched across the galaxy to sped his next great plan to fruition. The many great holds once bustling with magi and slumbering Space Marines were now empty.{{Fn|2c}}
During the [[Indomitus Crusade]], the ''{{PAGENAME}}'' was invaded and boarded by the forces of [[Fabius Bile]], who Cawl suspected was after the [[Sangprimus Portum]]. In truth however Bile sought [[Alpha Primus (Space Marine)|Alpha Primus]], the original [[Primaris Space Marine]], and was able to escape with the Marine's [[Progenoid Glands]]. During Bile's attack, the ''{{PAGENAME}}'' was invaded by large numbers of [[Beastmen]], [[Terata]], [[Mutant]]s, and other abominations and was subjected to a massive hacking cyber-attack that disabled most of its key systems.{{Fn|2b}}
