This changed sometime after the creation of the Great Rift, when a group of Ogryn killed a mutant beast that had been roaming the world's jungle. The Ogryn then discovered an undulating sac within the mutant's remains and, after becoming fascinated with the sac, they decided to take it back to their village. Once in the village, the sac eventually opened and a radiant creature emerged from it. To the village's Orgryn, the creature resembled a perfectly formed Human and they wept in the presence of its magnificence. The Ogryn then all fell to their knees in worship of it and their own bodies began to change, to become more like the creature they now adored. Months later, Imperial Guard fleets arrived to collect their tithe of soldiers from Krachordia, but found no trace of the Ogryn tribes. Instead they discovered a world that been completely overrun, with hulking Chaos Spawns.[1]
