Inquisitor Huron's confidence that Eris ad been cleansed of Tyranid activity proved woefully premature, as on 0812.017M42 a massive assault by Xenos of varying genomes crashed into Huron's defensive lines. The Novgorod Guard gave a good account of themselves, but the Nemesis strain of tyranids had targetted them, forcing them back and allowing a horde of what appeared to be Hive Fleet Leviathan - as far as Huron could tell - to assault the Inquisitor's investigation base.
unable to defend indefinitely against this new horde, Huron called for aid. Two days later the Angels Repentant made an orbital drop, although tension between the astartes and the Guard leadership was clear, since they were on opposing sides in the Vandrax theatre. However, humanity came before Xenos, and the astartes lent their aid as best they could. Unfortunately, the Tyranids were too many, and too aggressive, and proved more than the small company of Angels could deal with.
Huron had no choice but to evacuate his front line, call for more forces and attempt to reestablish a new front. His investigations would have to be at an end, as now the tyranids were approaching the last remaining inhabited areas on the world - Eris Prime and the seat of government.
