Legacy of Iron, The 108th Grand Company The Darksteel Legion’s Origins
Prologue
At the close of the 40th millennia The 108th Grand Company was still Demon Princes Garthons, Conquerors. His fleet was still large and I was nothing more than a simple Aspiring Champion in a squad of Marines, and having just recieved my Servo-Arm on my way to lieutenant and then next of course Warsmith. I was stationed aboard our fleets flag ship, The Pride of Olympia, with my squad and of course our Warsmith Garthon, was a powerful Demon Prince and brilliant tactician.
Above the planet Darksteel,(although at the time it was just another unmarked world in the Eye of Terror) Garthon would make his last command as commander of the 108th. Upon routine travel through the warp back to Olympia, A huge psychic pulse blasted 20 ships form our fleet out of the warp including The Pride of Olympia, to this day no one knows what happened to the others but none made it to Olympia.
Seconds after exiting the warp into real space we were confronted by a Ulthwe Strike Force of unparalleled size, it must have outnumbered our fleet by 3 to 1 in just ships alone, after a brief exchange of fire almost all of our ships were destroyed and only 3 were left, The Pride of Olympia, Garthon’s Sword, and Demon Destroyer, all of which were criticaly crippled and drifting towards the near by planet. Only a few Eldar ships fallowed in persuit, why the whole fleet didn’t destroy us was a mystery to us, right before we entered the planets atmosphere, Demon Destroyer took a fatal lance shot in the hull and detonated causing multiple hull breaches in The Pride of Olympia, including the bridge, once we entered the atmosphere the few fallowing Eldar ships broke off, at the time I still had no idea what was happening, I was in the Cargo hold with my men waiting it out.
During entry the bridge reached a temperature or 8,000 degreesC. Everyone aboard it was vaporised after being exposed to that for 30 minutes during entry, except Garthon who was “welded” unto his command chair. We landed in the mountainous regions of the southern continent, where Sword landed or even if it did is unknown, but after landing the first thing I did was run to the bridge to see what was going on. When I pried through the doors with my servo-arm and a powerfist I “found” around a dead marine, I was shocked at what I saw, the sheer and total destruction of the bridge of The Pride was unbelievable, even for someone who saw Garthon “convince” the people of Marglu V to become his slave laborers, the first thing I did was run over to Garthon’s chair to see if he survived(although at the time the chances were almost zero I still thought he was alive and well). When I found him over 60% of his body has fused with the Throne and he was dying slowly due to lack of body functions, he barley was able to register my presence sence having his eyes burned out of his sockets, he could only listen to me but as soon as I appeared in front if him he muttered my name, “Dameon, is that you?”, “Yes” I replied, relieved to see my Warsmith, alive for now. The next thing he said would change me forever and guide my future to greatness if I should live long enough, he said, “Dameon, I have fallen, *cough* you are now The Warsmith of the 108th, they are no *cough* the Garthon Conquerors.” he pauses to catch his breath and hock up a suprising amount of blood, “they are yours now Warsmith Dameon, make us proud to be Iron Warriors,” with those last words Garthon, Demon Prince, Warsmith of the 108th Grand Company, our leader died. “Well enough about the past,” I said to my self as I lay in my bed. Its been three days sence the crash and my promotion, “well I better get to work we need a way to at least look for food and suplies.”
Well there is the Prologue! I dont think i can wright that well so give my your impute, constructive or otherwise, i'll appreciate it!/(:cry myself to sleep. JK)
Also if you want more just tell me ill post up the other chapters
