“Cadia Broke Before The Guard Did” | 40k Metalcore

Описание: “Cadia Broke Before the Guard Did” is the defiant epitaph of a world that stood as the Imperium’s final bulwark against the Eye of Terror.

For ten thousand years, Cadia was more fortress than planet—its soil drilled, its skies weaponized, its people born into war. When Abaddon the Despoiler launched his 13th Black Crusade, Cadia became the anvil upon which Chaos sought to shatter the Imperium.

Even as the Blackstone Fortress Will of Eternity was hurled into the planet, cracking its crust and tearing reality itself, the Cadian Shock Troops did not break ranks. The world failed. The soldiers did not.

The phrase endures because it captures the core mythos of the Imperial Guard at its most brutal and noble: unyielding duty in the face of inevitable annihilation.

Cadia’s destruction was not a defeat of spirit, but proof of it—its regiments fought on amid a dying planet, buying time with their lives so the Imperium could endure. In death, Cadia became more than a strategic loss; it became a legend and a warning. Worlds may fall. Armies may be erased.

But the Guard—disciplined, obedient, and relentless—will stand until the last order is given, and then stand some more.
