Location of the New Kingdom.

New Kingdom is the personal pet project of Magnymagick and is what the domain of the new Prospero/Sortiarius System is called. Together with the Stygius Occupation acting as an exclave of New Kingdom, the Thousand Sons are preparing to reap the rewards of a sudden explosion of Psykers in the Imperium.

Overview

Stygius Sector, the New Kingdom exclave.

New Kingdom is perhaps, the most ambitious project for Magnus the Red and by extension, the Thousand Sons. With the Great Rift, came a great surge in psyker awakenings and the fracturing of the Imperium. Since the areas around Prospero haven't had any Black Ships to pick up these accumulating psykers, the population began resorting to good old witch hunts. Magnus saw this and began spreading rumors of a sanctuary to all these persecuted fledgeling psykers, hiding behind the moniker of the Crimson King. His legion spread out with cults and ferries in order to bring these scared children to a place where they could cultivate their talents and be respected as the next step of human evolution...as well as have them act as accessories to some very elaborate rituals.

New Kingdom as such, is advertised as a home for these psykers, where they are safe from the Imperium's deadly persecution. In this promised land, a new path for humanity will be forged, free from Imperial dogma, which will allow humanity to flourish in new ways under Magnus' leadership. Sortiarius, the recently transported Planet of Sorcerers, is greatly aiding in creating the New Kingdom, as its mere presence has begun changing the Realspace within the Prospero System. Astral light has begun coalescing around it and Sortiarius now gives off a psychic call, that is drawing in millions of humans who can hear it. So in a sense, Magnus is using his own version of the Astronomicon to gain new recruits, turning one of the Imperium's most crucial assets against them.

Once they arrive, they then try to gain entrance to Tizca, the City of Light, which serves as the capital of the New Kingdom. If they are successful they prove themselves worthy to be at Magnus' side and can use its libraries to master their abilities like Grimdark Hogwarts. The ruins of Prospero also play a significant part in the New Kingdom, as Magnus and the Thousand Sons have begun building upon its surface. Not to return the world to its former glory, lost in the Horus Heresy, but as an anvil, designed to hammer out the tools of war.

As such, in contrast to the Scourge Stars, the New Kingdom is much better run since Magnus don't have to contend with the other three Chaos Gods duking out in his own turf. Goes to show how bad Mortarion is in normal governing.

Second Battle of Prospero

Seeing as how badly the Space Wolves got their teeth kicked in, Logan Grimnar decided to get even with Magnus. The battle began when Logan Grimnar dispatched Njal Stormcaller, Arjac Rockfist, and a force of Space Wolves under to the ruins of Prospero, which since the teleportation of the Planet of the Sorcerers to its proximity had become a hub of Warp activity. The Stormcaller had been scanning the Warp in search of Leman Russ, but had instead sensed something of great importance taking place on Prospero. On the surface of Prospero, Njal and the Wolves encountered Cultists of the Thousand Sons and eventually discovered that remnants of the Heresy-era 13th Great Company of the Space Wolves under Bulveye were trapped on the world in a network of portals. Shortly after Magnus the Red and the Thousand Sons arrived on the world, Njal discovered that the Daemon Primarch planned to secure the portals to summon an army of Daemons to the Materium.

Njal ultimately managed to rescue 200 members of the 13th Great Company, complete with Heresy-era armour, weaponry, and vehicles. However, they were then assailed by Magnus and his Thousand Sons, who were mustering at the Pyramid of Photep on Tizca for the ritual to unleash the Daemons. The Wolves were only able to escape thanks to Lukas the Trickster, who delayed Magnus by offering him his spell of unlocking needed to unlock the portal network for his Daemonic army. However, the spell was just a useless piece of paper, and as Magnus promptly has an epic Nerd Rage at Lukas; the final escapees under Arjack Rockfist managed to leave in a portal. Meanwhile back in orbit, Njal Stormcaller ordered that the Space Wolves fleet bombard Prospero again to prevent Magnus' ritual from coming to fruition.
