A storm of asteroids slowly approaches the planet, pale blue sunlight glinting now and then where it strikes armor plating. This world is [B]Majeskus 16[/B], one of a great many moons that survived the aftermath of the destruction of their world at the hands of a joint Adeptus Astartes and Inquisitional task force 43 years before. The star system is littered with junk and floating bits of [B]Majeskus Primal[/B]. Miners and settlers came to the system almost 36 years ago to mine the rich veins of ore floating in space for those with both the will to take it and the courage to brave the unstable orbits of the remaining moons and the dense asteroid field. The [B]Arctic Dawn[/B] arrived in-system 16 hours before, her powerful void shields have spared her the impacts of the smaller asteroids and her gun batteries and lance arrays have cut away or pushed away the larger ones. “[COLOR=Silver]You will make your way to the moon below and see if you can find any trace of the Pride of December.
