Garronx Garronox lies on the Western Edge of Ultramar, a region which saw heavy fighting during the [[Plague Wars]]. While the forces of [[Nurgle]] were eventually repulsed, the area remains devastated and many lingering malignancies endure. As a result, industrial output has been greatly reduced but was subsequently rejuvenated during the [[Ultramarian Reclamation]]. Some, such as those in the [[Ecclesiarchy]], lobbied the [[Governor]] against formal reintegration into Ultramar, but these voices were overruled. In the aftermath, tensions with [[Frateris Militia]] and those in favor favour of the [[Administratum]] broke out. The tensions spilled over into discontent amongst the abused laborers labourers of the world, who rose in revolt under a being known only as [[The Harbinger]] who declared he was an agent of the [[Emperor]] to deliver the common people from tyranny. In truth, the Harbinger was an agent of the [[Black Legion]] lieutenant [[Jordax Quan]], who to subjugate the planet deployed [[Night Lord]]s under [[Dargon Vorax]] on the world to sow instability and rally [[Cultists]].{{Fn|2}}

==History==
The division soon spread even to the Ecclesiarchy, with the pro-Macraggian faction being led by the [[Priest]] [[Malvolian]] and the traditionalists led by the [[Confessor]] [[Ferdian Montcour]]. Into this mayhem stepped the [[Sisters of Battle]] garrison of the [[Order of Our Martyred Lady]] under [[Canoness]] [[Hortencia]], which ultimately rejected pledging to either side and instead began their own campaign to purge Garranox of instability. To try and hunt down the Harbinger, Hortencia deployed a [[Celestian Insidiant]] force known as the [[Abstersionists]].
