How far must loyalty go? 

To Maxillio Luminor Martel, life seemed perfectly flawless. He has earned a position as a Petroknight, one of the emperor's elite guards. It is a position millions have pursued, yet few ever achieved, and it comes with the strongest vow of loyalty to the emperor that anyone could give. 
That changes when the emperor sent him on a mission to suppress a rebellion. What started as an ordinary mission would come to test the very vow he had given. The choices he makes will send shockwaves throughout his nation and change the lives of millions forever.

Aquila by Ulthwe
29 parts Complete
Commander Caius Atelinas is many things: angel, demon, soldier, saint, and above all, an Ultramarine. A distinguished veteran of uncounted battles, his squad is often sent on some of the most dangerous missions to defend the Imperium of Man from the enemies of Mankind no matter where they show their faces. When he is sent on a mission to retrieve a stranded Tech-Priest on an isolated world at the edge of Imperium Space, he finds himself confronted with something much more dangerous than a downed space craft. Soon confronted by agents of Chaos, an Orkish invasion, and a squad of Aeldari all seeking the Tech-Priest or the ruination of the planet, Caius and his squad find themselves at the forefront of a fight that will put their skills to the test and sets Caius on the collision course with an unexpected ally - Farseer Naudan Bahad of Craftworld Ulthwé, his long-time rival and one-time ally, who has come to the planet seeking out a familiar foe and a mystery that they both believe had faded into the shadows. --- STORIES IN THE SERIES: 0.

Alchemy has always been a key to understanding the universe, yet it has often been dismissed as mere superstition. The truth seared through my veins like scorching heat, igniting every cell of my being with a searing, uncompromising judgment. I sacrificed everything-my strength and sense of identity-chasing after an overwhelming purpose. Duty and conviction waged a war against a primal yearning for freedom, unleashing a maelstrom of emotions that threatened to tear me apart. This internal hell fueled an insatiable, maddening lust for vengeance, obliterating my moral compass and propelling me toward utter destruction. Only when I made a final decision did the fundamental principles of morality seem to slip through my fingers like grains of sand. Each savage blow against the oppressive system left me questioning: am I a righteous crusader, or a monster consumed by hatred? The poisonous doubt gnawed at my mind, suffocating my thoughts with insidious whispers. Yet, I found the strength to silence them. With fierce determination burning in my veins, I vowed to break free from the chains of oppression or die trying. Fear would not hold me captive any longer. As I teetered on the edge of life and death, I couldn't help but wonder: would I emerge victorious or succumb to the relentless wheels of fate? The answer lies shrouded in the mists of an uncertain future, but one thing is irrefutable: win or lose, every decision will ignite an inferno of change. This cataclysmic revolution will raze the old world and herald the birth of a new era. In this cosmic roulette, even the most steadfast warriors can turn to dust in the blink of an eye. Therefore, are you willing to participate? Given that there always was, is, and will be war. Hope stands stronger than fear, yet anything is possible when darkness lingers. It is the deflection of accountability and guilt. Yet when all seems lost, trust that the butterfly knows where the water flows.
