The Story:
Flight Commander Lucille von Shard is a name known across the Imperium—a symbol of courage, piety, and aerial dominance. But fame can be a fragile thing.
Kile Simlex, the man who built her legend through propaganda reels and sanctioned histories, now finds himself summoned by Shard herself, dragged from obscurity to face a new war.
Arriving on Deighton—a world engulfed in rebellion—Simlex discovers that the icon he helped forge is a haunted, weary shadow of her former self. With her confidence shattered and a deadly xenos mercenary threatening to finish what war has begun, Shard must rediscover what made her a legend… or fall into obscurity forever.
For Simlex, the mission is clear: rekindle a hero, or watch her myth collapse.
