Editing Kleisthenes (section)

==The Heresy==
The Scions of Europa were fortunate enough not to be one of the legions betrayed in the Drop Site massacre, and as such, fought ferociously throughout the rest of the Hektor heresy.  Their struggle culminated at the Siege of Terra, where the Scions fought alongside [[the Crusaders]], [[Sand Keepers]], and many others against the Traitor legions.  Though [[Thomas Gaudin]] and [[Darius Cyaxares]] were superb warriors and their Legions mighty, the unshakeable resolve of Kleisthenes and his sons was the rock on which the Emperor's defence rested.

Towards the end of the Siege, as the Loyalists prepared to sell their lives in the defence of the Imperial Palace, Darius Cyaxares came to visit Kleisthenes.  Solemnly, the Sand Keeper declared, ''"Today you die, noble Kleisthenes."''  The Emperor's Champion did not wither in the face of fate.  Knowing his destiny, Kleisthenes solemnly drew on his mighty armour with the help of his mystic brother.  He then went to face the Warmaster aboard the ''Sun Chariot'', and fell in battle.  Kleisthenes' sacrifice allowed the Emperor to claim at least a pyrrhic victory over Chaos.
