Presumably, they were ultimately forced to flee into the [[Eye of Terror]] during the [[Great Scouring]], where they founded Xana II. It's also possible that the [[Heretek]]s of the original Forge of Xana II in Xana's system somehow moved it to the Eye.{{Fn|2}} Operated by the [[Dark Mechanicum]], Xana is infamous for its production of advanced wargear and [[Daemon Engine]]s for the forces of [[Chaos]]. The hellish world of Xana II is believed to be a planet wholly given to daemon-machines and infernal industries, where mills grind flesh and countless millions are enslaved to work in its world-spanning factories. The masters of Xana II, often half-daemon machines themselves, have long since given up their humanity and answer to none. They sell their creations to the highest bidder, be they [[Chaos Space Marines]], [[Daemon Prince]]s, [[Sorcerer]]s, or warlords and accept only human currency to feed their worlds endless requirements for slaves and souls. Xana II in particular is known for its aircraft, such as the [[Hell Blade]] and [[Hell Talon]], which are widely used by the forces of Chaos. The [[Imperium]] remains largely ignorant of technology and weapons of the Xana II lineage.{{Fn|1}} Xana II is or was home to the [[Legio Vulturum]].{{Fn|3}} During the Heresy, Xana II focussed on creating war engines infused with the animus of [[daemon]]s. They also excelled in the production of aerial war machines.{{Fn|4}} ==See also==*[[Planets (List)]] ==Sources==*{{Endn|1}}: [[Imperial Armour Volume Six - The Siege of Vraks - Part Two]], pg. 163*{{Endn|2}}: [[The Horus Heresy Book Six - Retribution]], pg. 30*{{Endn|3}}: [[Adeptus Titanicus: Traitor Legios]], pgs. 128-133*{{Endn|4}}: [https://web.archive.org/web/20260316133053/https://www.warhammer-community.com/en-gb/articles/pahkjjsi/heraldry-of-the-dark-mechanicum-part-two/ Warhammer-Community: Heraldry of the Dark Mechanicum – Part Two] ''(archived 16/3/26)'' [[Category:Daemon Worlds]][[Category:Dark Mechanicum]][[Category:Eye of Terror]][[Category:Forge Worlds]]
