==Overview==
The campaign saw the Emperor's Children and [[Iron Hands]] work together to clear [[Ork]] forces on the space station Deep Orbital DS-191 in the [[Callinedes System]].{{Fn|1}} Hundreds of Astartes had fought during this battle, including [[Lucius]] and [[Tarvitz]] of the Emperor's Children. However, they alongside a significant number of other Emperor's Children Legionnaires would be sent to [[Insstvan Isstvan III]] instead of aiding Fulgrim and Ferrus Manus to drive home the campaign in the system and assault [[Callinedes IV]].{{Fn|2}}
In truth, the battle was used as an opportunity to try and bring [[Ferrus Manus]] into [[Horus]]' fold. As the rift between those closer to Fulgrim and those who would ultimately remain loyal to the [[Emperor]] was festering within the Legion, commanders such as [[Solomon Demeter]] were unsupported by those closer to the Primarch such as [[Eidolon]], [[Marius Vairosean]], and [[Julius Kaesoron]]. While ultimately the Emperor's Children prevailed, Commander [[Vespasian]] saw their actions as dishonorable, and when he protested to Fulgrim he was murdered by the corrupted Primarch.{{Fn|1}}
