Hesp was a Jungle World that became the site of a battle between the Death Guard's 4th and 7th Plague Companies and the tyranids of Hive Fleet Lotan in the aftermath of the Great Rift's creation.[1]
The battle between the two forces became so apocalyptic that Hesp was inflicted with poisons, plagues, Daemonic diseases and virus bombs, which turned the world into a sea of toxic slime that claimed the lives of its invaders. When the last body fell dead, a tyranid bio-ship attempted to feed off Hesp, but the world proved to be so poisonous that its proboscis melted and this caused the remainder of Hive Fleet Lotan to destroy the Bio-ship.[1]
