Deadhenge

This article is about the galactic region; for the short story by Justin D. Hill, see Deathwatch: Deadhenge (Short Story). |
The Deadhenge is a region of the galaxy.[1]
In 750.M41, a strange spatial phenomenon was noted in passing by Imperial authorities in the Argos System. The swirling mass responsible was regarded as relatively unremarkable until no fewer than six Eldar Craftworlds suddenly appeared in the system. Before the Imperium could muster a fleet to respond to this, both the Craftworlds and the mass had vanished and every single sun within 60 light years had been extinguished.[1]
In the wake of this disaster, the fleet initiated the largest exodus in known Imperial history. Despite the best efforts of the Imperial fleet, however, billions of Imperial citizens died with their planets and suns. The region surrounding the Argos System, now full of Dead Worlds orbiting dead stars, became known as the Deadhenge.[1]
