Description Fire scorched the hallowed Ring of Cambria, where the gates had been thrown open and the Pale Blue Light escaped. An entire fleet and vast guardian armies succumbed to the arcane evil when it first broke forth and enveloped them. The fires ignited on this day would burn for twenty years, a raging storm of incandescent flames, eating the world away down to the Scrith.

And yet, neither radiant particles nor exotic energy could deter the efforts of the Adeptus Mechanicus to unveil the secrets buried at the ringworld’s heart. For all the catastrophe it had brought, the opening of the gates promised the priests access to the vault where unknown secrets of old humanity lay.

Thus, they sent expeditions, ones of such magnitude they might have overshadowed entire planetary crusades. Spearheaded by titans of the explorator-clade of the Alexandrian Heron Virintribia, the mission to go beyond the threshold of the Cambrian Gates pushed through the walls of living fire and forced a breach right into the heart of the storm.

In the fifteenth year of the raging fires, contact to the explorators was lost by the greater cult of the Omnissiah. And for five years more there would be no news of this mission, until the fires upon the Ringworld finally died.

This makes me wonder if a Titan's void shields could really hang on for years on end against unrelenting firestorms like that.

Mart, I had a terrible, wonderful idea. So ya know how each titan legion has a nickname? Well I came up with one for Cambria's Legio Theomechia. At first I was thinking The Ringlords, but nah too basic. So how about, the Ringwraiths. Huh huh

Up to you honestly. Idea just came about because I remembered other Legio's such as Legio Ignatum or Legio Mortis have nicknames, in this case the Fire Wasps and Deaths Heads respectively.

Fair point. Plus void shields ARE made to withstand serious firepower before failure I mean, you see it in 40k all the time. It takes a titan to kill another titan. So something like this might be less of a strain or challenge for them to overcome.

The story was great as always, really got me excited but... the titans here... their crimson red color scheme and red optics with them being shrouded in unholy flames... they look like avatars send straight from hell to punish the sinners of the Omnissiah. That is some amazing skill being able to make already fearsome god-like machines of war even scarier than a dozen bloodthirsters.

That really describes the titans well honestly. There exist many much deadlier weapons in the Imperium, but nothing as big in a humanoid shape as a Titan who are the perfect avatars of the machine god.
