Background
In 416.M37 the Sons of the Raven joined the strike force of the Inquisitor Lord Antonius Coil, for its mission to destroy the Dark Mechanicum Forge World Sarum. However, when Antonius' strike force neared Sarum it was ambushed by the Warbands of the Warp Ghosts and Black Wings, as well as the Daemon Engines of their Dark Mechanicum allies on Sarum. In the seventeen hour void war that followed, the Sons of the Ravens were unable to escape and were completely destroyed. Once word of their destruction reached Terra, the Sons of the Raven were declared martyers and the Bell of Lost Souls tolled to mourn their passing.[1]
