Eryx
,no edit summary
'''Eryx''' is one of the six [[Adeptus Mechanicus]] [[Knight World]]s in the [[Khaldun Sector]], that serve the [[Forge World]] [[Tolkhan]].{{Fn|1}}
==History==
The other [[Knight Worlds]] are [[Agarost]], [[Avalath]], [[Calmarin]], [[Talmanos]] and [[Zarel]] which along with Eryx, surround [[Tolkhan]]'s relative position within the [[Khaldun Sector]]. They were all also invaded by the [[Asuryani]] [[Craftworld]] [[Riellen]], during the [[War for the Khaldun Sector]]. After eight years and constant [[Imperial]] reinforcements, four [[System]]s were reclaimed from the Craftworld. Once this was done, Eryx was among the next worlds the Imperium sought to free. Tolkhan's [[Legio Pallidus Mor]] took part in the battle to do so, along with the [[Adeptus Mechanicus]] and [[Knight]] forces, that fought beside them.{{Fn|1}}
The [[Emperor Titan]] [[Praes Vindicta]] was one of the [[Imperial Titan|Titan]]s sent to Eryx, but as it neared the world, Vindicta's [[Pegasus Transport]] [[Arca Novem]] was shot down by Riellen's forces.{{Fn|1}} The transport crash landed on Eryx, and though the [[Farseer]] [[Tilwen]] attempted to destroy it, the Novem was later saved by other [[Imperial]] forces fighting on the world. The Vindicta would need to undergo six months of repair work, however, due to the damage it suffered from the crash landing.{{Fn|1}}
