Inspirational Friday 2017: Alpha Legion (until 8/25)

[Kierdale]

Inspirational Friday: The Alpha Legion

For those who do not know it, Inspiration Friday is a (generally) fortnightly weekly event within its home in the Chaos Space Marines forum, in which a topic is set for members to write short (or long if the muse takes you) fluff/fan-fic pieces about their war bands, characters and models.

And today begins our fifteenth challenge of Inspirational Friday 2017:

Alpha Legion

The 20th legion, a riddle wrapped in a mystery, inside an enigma.

Experts in infiltration, covert operations and manipulation, often the enemies of the serpent do not realise who their true foe is, and indeed the pawns of the legion may work unaware of the identity of their masters.

“Sinners in a shroud of lies” they were labelled by the Night Haunter and it is suspected that even during the Horus Heresy the legion infiltrated both their treacherous allies and the ranks of the loyalist legions.

Who truly knows where the loyalties of the Alpha Legion lie? Do they serve the Primordial Annihilator or are they still true to the Emperor’s ideals?

Tell us this time a tale of the Hydra (30k or 40k).

Inspirational Friday: Alpha Legion runs until the 25th of August.

Let us be inspired.

To whomever wins IF: Alpha Legion goes the Hydra Amulet...

BEHOLD!
