Session 20 - 1,250 xp

Kill-team: Ezekiel, Raziel, Quintus, Guthorm.

The surviving Astartes descend into the cavern, and realise that the tyranid horde is just an echo of the past, incapable of affecting them. The man with the metal mask is also insubstantial, but has the power to affect their minds, and tries to put them against each other.

In the cavern is also an ancient sarcophagus, but when the Kill-team tries to open it, they suffer powerful jolts of corrupting energy, accompanied by terrifying visions of an army of dread cyborgs invading a barren world. The Marines decide to focus on the metal mask, and after several tries, they manage to destroy the artefact by using the relic shields they received from the Omega Vault.

When they return to base camp, they report on their discovery, and the HQ organises an expedition to retrieve the sarcophagus for further study. Eventually, it is discovered that the artefacts are connected with a legendary xeno race known as Necrons.

The Kill-team is sent to join the Dead Cabal, a team of Deathwatch Marines led by an Inquisitor, who has knowledge of this ancient menace. When they reach their Watch Station, they meet with the members of the cabal, and settle in, awaiting orders.
