Contents
Overview
The Fortress of Hera sits in the Valley of Laponis alongside the Hera's Fall, overlooking the Macragge's capital of Magna Civitas.[3] The fortress is a wonder of engineering constructed by Chapter's Primarch Roboute Guilliman during the days of the Great Crusade. It's structure contains graceful balconies, golden geodesic domes and slender glass walkways supported by silver-steel buttresses. The domed structures of the fortress are citadels in their own right.[1]
Within its great halls is the Temple of Correction in which the Shrine of the Primarch preserved the body of Roboute Guilliman in a stasis field until his Resurrection.
