Changes

The most influential of the human population on Naduesh dwells in Maarjir, an immense enclosure of ruins thirty kilometres broad and three kilometres from ground level to the crumbling vaults high above. The interior space of Maarjir gapes empty between its support pillars, and the curved ceiling vaults are set with enormous mosaics. The entire structure is large enough for its own weather systems; the haze of distant wall-bastions broken by white clouds and sudden warm showers. As awe-inspiring as it is, Maarjir is a shadow of its former self: its base structures are ruined, its upper vaults cracking. With each passing year another of the upper vault structures tumbles down.{{Fn|1}}

The Tech-Priest [[Explorator]] teams searching for [[archeotech]] in the ruins of Naduesh have unearthed numerous caches of esoteric and unknown devices. Many of the swords, axes, and other melee weapons discovered seemed ordinary until they were brought to the adept-[[psyker]]s of the [[Ordo Xenos]]. Studies have realised these were [[Force Weapon]]s possibly stemming from the [[Dark Age of Technology]], although the possibility of [[xenos]] influence isn't entirely ruled out. Although they attempted to keep this valuable find secret, word eventually got out and these highly-valuable commodities and know throughout the [[Koronus Expanse]]. Some raiders will go as far as attacking vessels carrying these weapons simply to steel them. Psyker warriors who possess a Naduesh blade bear the mark of true power in both body and mind, regardless of whether they wield a Naduesh Force Staff, Sword, or Axe.{{Fn|3}}
