Ten thousand years , since the Emperor was the sovereign ruler of mankind. The demons of Warp and the xenos races that tried to defeat Him fell to the power of the innumerable armies of mankind, he allowed some races to live and develop, but only as part of the Imperium . The only exceptions were the Eldar, they had their own state in the place of the former Eye of Terror, although those worlds belonged to them rightfully. For such a long time, managing millions of worlds has become a routine, from which He is tired, but could not leave. Because He will leave and the horrors of the Long Night may return.
But one day something happened that He could not have foreseen. The Emperor felt a splash of some dark energy AI that came from another galaxy. The energy was so dark, chaotic, that caused him serious concerns.

A month later, after finishing his military campaigns with the Primarchs , the Emperor's genetic sons began arriving on Terra at the head of their Space Marines orders.
When all eighteen gathered in the Throne Room, He appeared before them.

Alpharius , Omegon, collect those all your orders, they will go first and , you will have to find out the location of the worlds inhabited by intelligent life , and what forces are dominant in that galaxy, collect all the possible information and return by building back the gates on the other side. For this purpose , a fleet of technical priests of Mars will go with you .
" Father, your will will be done!" Said Alpharius , primarch of the 20th Legion , with enthusiasm .
After the meeting ended, Angron primarch of the 12th legion approached Alpharius .

⁃ Thank you all . - about Twet Omegon
Thanking the brothers , Alpharius and Omegon turned around to prepare for an expedition into the unknown.

"Sir, on my orders, probes were sent through the gates." According to their data, in that system there is only one inhabited world, which is a desert. The population does not exceed 200,000 living things. Also, in that galaxy, the Gate should also be built to establish a permanent connection with the Imperium .
" I understand you Archmagos ." This world and this system will become our springboard, and no one will stop us. In the name of the Emperor and humanity!
The huge Alpha Legion battle fleet, which consisted of a dozen battleships and battle Barges and hundreds of cruisers at the head of the «Alpha» Legion 's flagship , moved through the portal. It is not known what awaited the participants of this expedition , but they were ready for anything, for such were created by the Emperor ten thousand years ago.
