Background
The Harakiens' first encounter with the Imperium was on the Feral World of Destino. Winged Victory had just departed the newly-pacified world, leaving behind a garrison of Imperial Army troops. Much of the garrison was second- or third-line regiments, but among their number was the 38th Regiment of the Auron Infantries. The Eldar swiftly put their enemies to flight, taking large numbers of captives.
However, many of the Aurrie troops escaped capture and fled into the thick jungles of Destino. Within that forbidding growth, bands of the 38th regrouped and prepared guerilla raids on their enemies. Although they suffered great deprivation and heavy casualties, the courageous Aurries held up the Harakiens until the arrival of Lieutenant Uli Dreier's Squadron of Winged Victory Space Marines and several Demi-brigades of Ciban Chasseurs. Out-numbered and out-gunned by the Imperial reinforcements, the Eldar withdrew from Destino.
Dreier linked up with the surviving men of the 38th. His report back to the Fifth Legion was answered promptly with the dispatch of further reinforcements, including sappers recruited from the Markian Pact. These specialists were under instructions to fortify Destino, in the meantime, Dreier and his expanded command should probe the surrounding systems to assess the Xeno threat.
