Synopsis

Returning the Spear of Telesto to Baal after the conclusion of the Blood Angels civil war, newly-promoted Sergeant Rafen finds himself the subject of Astorath the Grim's attentions. The mysterious high chaplain suspects that Rafen has fallen foul of the Chapter's curse, the Black Rage, and will go to any lengths to prove it, even if that leads to Rafen's death. Read it because Astorath the Grim is the final judge of who lives and dies in the Blood Angels. His word is law, and he’s not too keen on Brother Rafen… That doesn’t seem like it’s going to end well.
