The Fall of Graggen Keep was a battle between the forces of Chaos and the Imperium.[1]

The war began on the death world of Friggenswald, when Traitor Guard laid siege to the towering fortress known as Graggen Keep. Though defended by only a handful of soldiers, the sludgy acidic river surrounding the fortress instantly dissolved those renegades who attempted to launch an assault. Furthermore, from its position inside the walls, the Freeblade Knight Unflinching Steel fired into the ranks of the encroaching army. Yet the initial victories of the defenders only delayed the inevitable. The Chaos Knights of House Lucaris arrived on Friggenswald and marched upon Graggen Keep. Having served their purpose of holding Unflinching Steel in place, the renegades withdrew out of firing range while the Lucaris Knights waded through the acid flows surrounding the fortress. A trio of Knights Rampager made short work of the fortress walls, allowing the remaining war engines to pour through the breach and annihilate the defenders. Unflinching Steel was brought down and dismembered by the members of its former household, but was not destroyed. Instead, its battered and mutilated chassis was taken back to Morda Prime to face judgement.[1]
