Silver Pilgrimage

From Warhammer 40k - Lexicanum
Jump to: navigation, search

The Silver Pilgrimage is a form of penitence that Iron Hands who have failed their Chapter, willingly undertake in the Land of Shadows, in order to seek redemption.[1]

Those who agree to undergo the Pilgrimage are stripped of their rank, weapons and armour, before being sent to the Land of Shadows on Medusa. Once there, they most reclaim a single scale shed in the battle between their Primarch, Ferrus Manus, and the Great Wyrm Asirnoth, before they can return to their Chapter and be forgiven for their failures. Few of the Iron Hands however, have ever successfully completed the Silver Pilgrimage.[1]
