The High Lords Send Murder - Warhammer 40K fanfic - ongoing

Looking to share some episodic fan fiction stories set in the Warhammer 40K setting,with a specific focus on a mysterious chapter of Space Marines and a recurring cast of characters.

Each 'chapter' is approx. 5-10K words and is itself a self-contained story/episode with the intent to make them fun enough to read in one sitting.

The key themes are:

- Feudal grimdark setting, intrigue, military action and eldritch horror.

- The power and terror of post-human space marines.

- Slice-of-life, episodic and self-contained stories.

As the 42nd millennium dawns, the Imperium of Man is beset on all sides. The galaxy is torn in two by the great rift and the mad forces of chaos spill forth to wreak havoc. Extra-galactic horrors descend like a plague, intent on consuming all life. Alien hordes reave and plunder across the emperor's realm with abandon. Even within, the Imperium is riven by seditionists, cultists and endless civil strife. Worlds burn and legions die on the wire, fighting wars beyond counting.

It is a time of doom and creeping despair.

For the post-human warriors ofmurdercompany, it is the best of times.

Roaming the red stars, they take the fight to the emperor's enemies and enforce the will of the High Lords. Merciless killers and warriors beyond compare, they teach the horrors of the cosmos that mankind is not prey.
