Cover Description
Witness the origin of a legend... When the Tau colony on Arkunasha is attacked by Warboss Gitbiter, a brutal war of attrition ensues. The Tau's only hope of survival is Shas'o Vior'la Kais Mont'yr. Originally dispatched to Arkunasha to train its Fire Warriors, the Shas'o must now teach them the true meaning of battle. Such is his prowess and ability during the conflict that he comes to be known by another name, shovah, meaning 'farsight'. Little do the Orks realise who they are truly up against.
