====Migration Five====
The Fifth Glasian Migration was a turbulent mess of conflict and confusion.  The Emperor’s Tarot had been singularly unhelpful in predicting which worlds would be hit by the Glasians in the invasion, and so the Daggers had been forced to spread out their attention unevenly over many planets.  The Chapter, now approaching their full numbers of strength, was still not quite able to divert enough of their Marines to grant proper protection to each world that fearfully requested it.  However, when the Cylinders came, the reason for the confusion came clear in a flash of realization.  The psychic Inquisitors that had been performing the Tarot readings had been assuming that more worlds would be hit in the Fifth Migration than the preceeding ones; when the Glasians arrived, they only hit three systems.  Septiim, as always, then Hapster and Mendic.

Hapster’s archaeotech defenses and mighty Bronze Legions were able to see off their attackers beneath the size of the Cylinder itself.  A single flight of twelve First Company Terminators was more than enough to destroy the Cylinder, which had left itself all but defenseless after disgorging nearly everybody aboard to attack the surface.  The planet Letrione withstood the Glasians much worse, and suffered nine million casualties before the Daggers and their Skitarii allies were finally able to sink its own Cylinder.
