During the invasion Inquisitor Lord Kluctmier of the Ordo Xenos, had begun research into a genetic virus which would kill the Tyranids invading Granica IV. He was nearly finished creating the virus, when a large force of Tyranids attacked his laboratory. A platoon of the Imperial Guard, a squadron of Stormtroopers and a Deathwatch Kill-Team, led by the Librarian Zapherion, defended the laboratory as Kluctmier began creating a sample of the virus.[1a]
Kluctmier soon finished and as the battle was fiercely waged around him, the Inquisitor Lord, carrying a canister full of the virus, and his retinue quickly made their way to his shuttle, which would evacuate him to safety. It was not to be however, as a horde of Genestealers ambushed Kluctmier and tore the Inquisitor Lord and his retinue apart. His defenders fared little better and soon only the Deathwatch Kill-Team was left standing, to face they Tyranid hordes. Though Kluctmier was dead, Zapherion could see that the canister he carried was undamaged, but was surrounded by Tyranids. Knowing that his Kill-Team would not be able to reach the canister and be able to escape, he gave the order to be teleported back to his Strike Cruiser, the Excrutio, vowing to return to reclaim the canister.[1b]
