There is no way out. It is the end and the death.
The walls have fallen, the gates are breached, and the heroic defenders are slain. After seven brutal years of apocalyptic civil war, the arch-traitor Horus Lupercal stands on the absolute verge of total victory. The once-beloved son has come to murder his father. The Emperor—a shining beacon of hope to many, an unscrupulous tyrant to others—must die.
Uncountable trillions have been extinguished, and legendary Primarchs, once thought immortal, have been laid low. The Emperor's dream of a unified humanity lies in tatters, but amidst the ash and ruin of the Imperial Palace, a single sliver of hope remains.
At the final hour of the final day, the Emperor rises from the Golden Throne. With him come his Angel, his Praetorian, and his Captain, all determined to enact a terrible, final vengeance. Yet the gamble is desperate, for the Warmaster sees all, knows all, and the ultimate victory of Chaos is at hand.
