→The Horus Heresy and the Schism of Mars
the Void Dragon came to earth sometime in the 12th Century in an extremely weakened form where
it lured women from a vast city in Libya to it's lair where it would consume them. The last women
to be consumed was the princess of a large city and as the procession was bringing her to the Dragon's lair, a great Knight in resplendant plate armour appeared and rode on toward the cave where he fought the weakened Void Dragon. A weak spot is exposed beneath it's wing and the warrior thrusts, subdueing it. In the battle, the warrior's helm torn off by the Dragon revealing his identity as the the [[Emperor of Mankind]]. The first machines were created from within the Dragon's mind and the Emperor was able to chain it beneath the surface of [[Mars]]. The Emperor forsaw that he his Imperium would wither and die, unless a sect of tech adepts were able to supply munitions and technology to the expanding faction. From the chaining of the Dragon and his creation of machinery and the myth of the Onmessiah, the Emperor was setting the scene for his arrivla arrival on Mars before the Great Crusade. The Knight and the Dragon can also explain explain the long standing myth of good vs evil.
