The mission to capture the Eternals was completed smoothly. All ten Eternal warriors led by Ajak had been captured and imprisoned in a prison on Phobos.
It was a very small moon, roughly twenty-seven kilometers in diameter. Lox had specifically built a prison there tailored for the Eternals.
At Phobos's core rested a singularity bomb. Should the Eternals attempt to escape, it would immediately detonate and draw every prisoner of war on the moon into the singularity, erasing them completely.
Lox had not brought much Blackstone material from the Warhammer universe, so he could not build another anti-psyker prison fortress made entirely of Blackstone like the one on Macragge.
Lox was suddenly reminded of Samus, the enslaved Greater Daemon of Chaos. He wondered how many Warp daemons that demonic traitor had conned afterward.
But aside from Blackstone's anti-psyker field, Lox possessed other means of suppressing psychic power. The chains binding these Eternals were among them.
Many of those shackles were artifacts personally forged by Vulkan, the Lord of Drakes.
When he had left Terra, that generous Primarch had given him many little things he had made himself as gifts.
Corswain had left behind a squad of Primaris Dark Angels as guards. The sons of Lion El'Jonson excelled at missions requiring secrecy and concealment.
Entrusting the prisoners to them undoubtedly guaranteed the greatest possible security.
With this experience behind him, Pollux had new ideas for constructing the Solar System's defenses.
They now knew that while Eternal warships were unimpressive in other respects, their stealth technology was exceptionally advanced.
The Imperial Fists therefore decided to construct large numbers of early-warning outposts throughout the Solar System, with particular emphasis on strengthening scanning arrays and improving the precision of detecting psychic targets.
Lox granted him the highest level of authority, allowing him to mobilize
