Prospero will burn.
Prospero will burn at the hands of the Sixth Legion – the Space Wolves – for the crimes of Magnus The Red, Primarch of the Thousand Sons and The Crimson King of Prospero. The people of Prospero will die out, ceasing to be, Magnus The Red will sell his soul and the loyalty of the Thousand Sons to the malign influence of the Ruinous Powers, and the Space Wolves will be known as butchers forevermore.
But one Space Wolf will not stand for the butchery of the people of Prospero or his fellow Wolves' blind obedience to the orders of the Emperor. He will rebel against the chafing restrictions of the Imperium and his place in it, and open his eyes to the cruelty of his calling.
His name is Katlan, for now. He will choose to desert and leave the Sixth Legion with whatever forces he can, and perhaps, he will finally do something about the insatiable emptiness which has been gnawing at him for over a century and a half.
(This is Warhammer 40k/30k fanfiction; this time though, it has been read by two separate proofreaders who knew absolutely nothing about Warhammer 40k or 30k, who have both told me that it was still understandable and enjoyable despite their lack of knowledge of the lore. And for Warhammer nerds: it should be obvious, but this story takes place during and after the Burning of Prospero. and just like my other Warhammer 30k fanfiction, you can call me out for my lore crimes, but you cannot stop me from committing them.)
