	Eventually though, the Brazen Drakes ~~would be~~ defeated ~~and with~~ no other choice, fled through the Nachmund Gauntlet towards the Cadian Gate. Once there, they conquered the Fortress ~~world~~ of Dessah (despite only having a few Marines left and literally zero ability to hold territory...). Initially, they joined the [[Black Legion]] and renamed themselves as the Shriven. Still being pursued by the Torchbearers, they came across [[Fabius Bile]], who was similarly on the run from the [[Death Guard]] under the command of [[Typhus]]. Seeing this as an opportunity, the two forces made an uneasy alliance, and the Shriven (still being new to the whole Chaos thing and unaware of how things tended to end for those that get chummy with the Sick Fuck), ~~opened~~ themselves up to Bile's "services." Bile gave Corian elixirs and augments, making him far stronger, but at the cost of making him dependent on Bile. A few of the Shriven were selectively chosen to become grotesque experiments known as Terata.		Eventually though, the Brazen Drakes were defeated.

Bile gave Corian elixirs and augments, making him far stronger, but at the cost of making him dependent on Bile. A few of the Shriven were selectively chosen to become grotesque experiments known as Terata.

	The first test of these new augments was a planned ambush on the planet of Limaxis. The plan ~~works~~ well enough and ~~stall~~ the Death Guard for some time. Seeing the ferocity of the Terata, many of the Shriven ~~volunteer~~ to become test subjects for Bile. Corian ~~realizes~~ that his grip on authority is fading, but ~~fears~~ that he ~~can~~'t remove Bile from his warband, especially since he's chemically dependent on Bile's formulas. All he could do is remind his followers of who their true master is. The Torchbearers ~~enter~~ the Belis Corona System, and the Shriven and Bile's forces ~~engage~~ them on the planet of Bairsten Prime. The Shriven ~~retreat~~ when Corian is shot in the head by an Exitus sniper rifle. Bile ~~decides~~ to take the lifeless body to his laboratory, where the Enlightener is corrupted into a golem of insidious runes, wiring, muscle, and pipes, with psychic power circling around it. Bile ~~uses~~ the now mindless Enlightener to kill all those loyal to Corian with psychic beams of fire, leaving those that ~~survive~~ utterly loyal to the Primogenitor and also volunteering to become lab rats.

	In the end, Bile spun a web on Dessah to ensnare and tie up all the loose ends. Typhus and the Death Guard arrived first. Tyvar and his Torchbearers soon followed. Bile made his escape as the Enlightener blasted poxwalker hordes with psychic blasts. In the midst of the battle, the Execution Force finally made their move and battled the Enlightener and the Terata. In the end, only the Culexus and Callidus Assassins survived the battle. The Shriven fared little better. Without leadership and with few of its remaining members of sound mind, the warband was effectively dissolved, ~~remaining as~~ little more than another tally on the list of sick fuckery committed.

	The Custodes were clear and simple in their orders. Lay down arms or die as traitors. Now Astartes aren't stupid~~, they~~ KNOW the Custodes are essentially the voice of the Emperor. They KNOW they are above them in status in regards to Imperial hierarchy. Would it have been hard to just put down their guns and prove their loyalty through words instead of aggression? Not at all. While the ~~custodes~~ were brutal in their response, it was justified by a direct aggressive response by the Primaris and their refusal to lay down arms. The stupid comes in when one considers that not one of the Primaris decided to surrender, and the Shield Captain was an asshole by not trying to speak them down and immediately taking them away from the system before jumping in and killing the traitors.

The Imperium saw this as enough of a threat for an [[Officio Assassinorum\|Assassinorum Execution Force]] to be sent after Argento Corian, who has renamed himself as The Enlightener. A great war over the idiot ball, craved by all.		By the time the Indomitus Crusade was in full swing and a Torchbearer fleet arrived at the Brazen Drakes homeworld of Khassedur, bringing two full companies of [[Primaris Space Marines\|Primaris Marine]] [[Unnumbered Sons\|Greyshield]] reinforcements, the planet was ravaged by war and half the chapter had gone full chaos. The [[Adeptus Custodes\|Custodes]] immediately pasted judgement on the Primaris Brazen Drakes as tainted (even though them being tainted was outright ''impossible'' as they were born ten thousand fucking years ago and their only relation to the Chapter was parent legion and the fresh paint on their armor), and when the Primaris disregarded a direct order to disarm by the Custodes and a Primaris marine aggressed towards the Shield-Captain, the Custodes (being the Emperors authority incarnate) made to end the Primaris threat by force. The Primaris fought back and tried to seize the fleet (which was stupid as the Custodes not attacking them immediately implies the Primaris would have just been examined and then released when deemed untainted), and before long the whole fleet was being torn apart. The ensuing war would engulf three entire Imperial systems. The Imperium saw this as enough of a threat for an [[Officio Assassinorum\|Assassinorum Execution Force]] to be sent after Argento Corian, who has renamed himself as The Enlightener. A great war over the idiot ball, craved by all.

	In the end, Bile spun a web on Dessah to ensnare and tie up all the loose ends. Typhus and the Death Guard arrived first. Tyvar and his Torchbearers soon followed. Bile made his escape as the Enlightener blasted poxwalker hordes with psychic blasts. In the midst of the battle, the Execution Force finally made their move and battled the Enlightener and the Terata. In the end, only the Culexus and Callidus Assassins survived the battle. The Shriven fared little better. Without leadership and with few of its remaining members of sound mind, the warband was effectively dissolved, remaining as little more than another tally on the list of sick fuckery committed.
