The Reclamation of Safiniyus was a battle fought by the Raven Guard.[1]

Safiniyus — a mining world rich in promethium — fell into the hands of renegades and Night Lords, but before the foe could act, the Raven Guard were upon them at full Chapter strength. Reiver Squads deployed via grav-chutes to seize power plants while Inceptor Squads secured rig-spires, duelling enemy assault troops atop the miles-high platforms above the promethium seas. Chapter Master Kayvaan Shrike led so many Thunderhawk drop assaults that it appeared to foes that he was in many places simultaneously. In shock at the suddenness of the attacks, the Night Lords fled, leaving their renegade and cultist allies behind. Within weeks the planet became the first of many worlds across Segmentum Tempestus to be so liberated by the Space Marines.[1]
