Valos is a barren, Dead World on the Eastern Fringe of the Ultima Segmentum, to the galactic southeast of Ultramar.[Needs Citation]


History

During the Horus Heresy, Valos became a battleground between Loyalist and Traitor forces, suffering an atomic bombardment that boiled away the planet's oceans. Even after this catastrophe, Titans of the Legio Astorum and Legio Fureans continued to fight with each other.[1]

In late M41, Valos was in the direct line of Hive Fleet Behemoth's attack. It was the first world to be overrun and absorbed by the Hive Fleet before it proceeded to overrun Tyran, from which the Tyranids got their name.[Needs Citation]
