The '''{{PAGENAME}}''' was a battle fought by the [[Imperial Fists]].{{Fn|1}}

Upon the opening of the [[Great Rift]], the [[Knight World]] of [[Talixetaca]] was isolated for what seemed to it to be many decades. Eventually, the [[House Ordigia]] King of the world formed his own petty empire and seceded from the Imperium. A reconquest force led by [[Imperial Fists]] [[Lieutenant (Space Marines)|Lieutenant]] [[Darsio]] was gathered and included not only the [[Space Marine]]s of the [[2nd Company (Imperial Fists)|2nd]], [[7th Company (Imperial Fists)|7th]], and [[10th Company (Imperial Fists)|10th]] [[Space Marine Company|Companies]] but also elements from the [[Red Templars]] and [[Black Consuls]].{{Fn|1}}

As the Space Marines began their planetary invasion, it was revealed that the [[Librarian]] [[Cadmus (Librarian)|Cadmus]] had led a infiltration of Talixetaca and gathered pro-Imperial elements. The subsequent assault lasted twelve hours and saw the Imperials decisively crush the rebels as the walls of his fortress was captured. In the aftermath of the battle, the name of the False King was stricken from all records and his cashes cast into furnaces. All those that had followed him but pledged anew were given mercy. Imperial Fists remained on the world to oversee recompliance for a third of the year.{{Fn|1}}
