Was against a chaos cult on the feudal World of Kortega. The world was lon terrorized by a warband from the Night Lords Traitor Legion. Eventually some weak willed would start praising their actions in a attempt to avoid getting kidnapped and tortured.

Even starting to worship them. After a few centuries of easy plunder there were a few who even got abducted to become Night Lords. Eventually calling upon their cults to usurp the world. Unfortunately for them the newly formed Embers Of Istvaan were assigned to this sub sector and touring through the system.

Chapter Culture and Beliefs

As a result of this any human auxiliaries working for xenos are viewed as little better than said xenos, capturing and re-educating said species traitors. Whilst civilians living under xenos oppression are transported back to the chapter homeworld Liberty Prime for re education and freedom.

“The drunkari they always act so “superior” because they think themselves the eldest and best. Such is their folly any organism that thinks itself worthy of the stars without the might to hold them is pure drunken delusion!” -Chapter master of the Embers Of Istvaan “Those smug Slannesh spike sucking endorsers of a species dare raid our vessels!!? Take OUR BRETHREN as slaves ? I WILL PERSONALLY JAM THE FIRST SLAVER I SEE INTO A SUN! I swear this to the king of liberty to mankind. Then I will go to their spiked city retrieve our battle brothers and aspirants, take back any and all human slaves giving the sweetest mercy of death to the xenos abominations”

About:
"Aha! As we expected those mon'keigh brutes have called for reinforcements to save their cowardly hides! Remember my overly-bloodthirsty compatriots, those crude bio-weapons of war may share the dexterity of a wych and the durability of a haemonculus' dreadfully artistic creations, but those are mere compensations for their horrifically high naivety. They come to our little party and attempt to cull us, but likewise we shall use this primitive vessel against them. There shall be bonus payments if we take more of them alive, MAIM THEM!!!
