Editing The Markian Corps (section)

====Aftermath====
In the wake of the Mortekaiser Campaign Imperial scholars unmasked the truth behind the Intax religion. Based on their machine worship, macabre face-paintings, myths, and proximity to a necron tomb world, the Intax probably worshiped the necrons of Dread as gods, revering them as purifiers who slumbered until the time came to purge the galaxy of the heathens. As for the morkai, their presence on Dread was baffling because morkai had no way of reaching the galactic core in a timely manner, let alone the Mortekaiser Sector; nor is it known why they landed on Dread beyond that it was related to the necrons. Though it was not all questions and confusion; promotions were in order after the campaign. Verdun was promoted to Marshal and commended for his actions on Ulysses. Ranc, who had defied orders in going to Dread, was nearly court-martialed. However, while the Markians were fighting on Shazakh, the Imperium erupted into civil war. Markia would need every man where he belongs, so Ranc was promoted to Grand Marshal in preparation for a new, more massive campaign.
