Dusken V is a cursed Imperium world of scorched earth and poisonous air. It only contains a single subterranean Hive, known as the Deep, which is built in the sides of a chasm and spirals down toward the world's dying molten core.[1]
History
When the Deep went days without vox contact, Astropaths used their abilities to make contact and detected a war disturbance at the Hive's heart. In response to this the Cadian 1313th Regiment and the House Taranis Knight Vagoran were dispatched to find out what had happened to the Deep. When they entered it, however, they could see the marks of Heresy and as they descended deeper into the Hive they were attacked by a Slaanesh Cult. The Cadians and Vagoran fought their way through to the Deep's ninth level where they were confronted by Daemonettes and a Keeper of Secrets, which was responsible for corrupting the Hive's population. In the battle that followed, Vagoran clashed with the Keeper and managed to destroy the Greater Daemon's body, sending both it and the Daemonettes back into the Warp.[1]
