====Kamnets Primaris==== {{Infobox 40k Planet |name= Kamnets |bgcolor=black |fgcolor=white |image= |class= Fortress World |orbdist= .14 AU |gravity= .7G |temp= 120C (Sunside), -60C (Darkside) |pop= 50,000,000 |governor= General Ibramev Tokrez |system= Kamnets |sector= Frombov |subsector= Kamnets |segmentum= TO BE DETERMINED BY ALEXANDRI }} Kamnets Primaris orbits a small red dwarf star, all but scraping its photosphere as it does. It has an atmosphere, though a tenuous one, and receives an intolerable amount of ultraviolet and thermal radiation at all times. The planet is tidally locked around its star, and liquid water is present only in a thin ring of twilight between fire and frost. Were it not for the colossal ''White Rift'' stretching across half the sky, it is unlikely the Imperium would take any notice of the battered little rock ball. The ''Rift'' covers much of the Subsector and flares up in rhythm with Kamnets' parent star. Red dwarves are well known for producing titanic solar flares out of all proportion to their size, and Kamnets Alpha is no exception. When the red dwarf erupts, the ''White Rift'' casts hideously pale light into the void, and from these hateful rays are born creatures that defy Imperial categorization even to this day. Though similar in appearance to any other Warp Storm found in Imperial records, the ''White Rift'' does not appear to lead into that plane of chaos and hatred. Like living lightning bolts, angular serpents of unidentifiable energy slither from a space between worlds to feast on anything in their way, and it falls to the Imperial Navy to fend them off with lance and plasma macrobattery at the ready. Any soldier unlucky enough to be consumed by the "serpents" simply vanishes. Entire voidships have been swallowed up and disintegrated, or perhaps spirited away to realms unimaginable and deadly. Some believe the ''White Rift'' to be a manifestation of Order itself, passing judgement on the Materium's imperfect creations. Others believe it to be the fell imprint of an unknown fifth Chaos entity beyond the four Ruinous Powers. A few Imperial scholars maintain the ''White Rift'' to be lingering energies from a conflict between Dark Age Mankind and Pre-Fall Eldar, whose powers are now beyond human comprehension. The most frightening whispers, only uttered within a small circle of Inquisitors, declare the ''White Rift'' to be a godling yet to be born. In their eyes, the lethal forces traversing the ''Rift'' can only be the embryonic hungers of Ynnead, the Eldar god of Death, practicing its killing arts. Whatever the ''Rift's'' true nature, the Imperium stands ever vigilant to meet it, until judgement day arrives.
