War Without End

The War Without End is the ongoing, eternal crusade currently being undertaken by the deadly and unforgiving Void Ravens Space Marine Chapter against the foes of Mankind. The Chapter's eternal quest to bring the swift sword of retribution to the enemies of the Emperor, has been ongoing since the dark days of the Horus Heresy, with no end in sight.

History
The War Without End is the name given by the Void Ravens to what they consider their longest engagement. In fact, its start pre-date the creation of the Chapter. There is discussions about the precise beginning of this conflict, some claiming it was the Great Scouring, others seeing it at the onset of Istvaan III, or Istvaan V. What is unanimously accepted by the Ravens, however, is that this war has not ended and won't do so in the foreseeable future. Not as long as the Traitors remain.

While the rest of the Imperium treat Chaos Space Marines and cultists invasions and outbreaks as separated engagements against the Lost and the Damned, the Void Ravens see them as mere battles in the greater War without End. Even the mighty Black Crusades are but massive battles in a larger conflict, stretching time and space. For the Ravens, this unending war will finally meet its end only when the last Traitor breath his last breath, when the last cultist lay dead and that the whole Imperium is freed from the taint of Chaos. It is a daunting task, probably unachievable, but from Nuran Kale to Yafrir Valqash, it is a task which has driven the Chapter.
