Disciples of the Flames

The Disciples of the Flames were one of the rare Shattered Legions-warbands drawn from the Salamanders Legion that would illustrate itself in the dark years of the Horus Heresy. The epic tale of the Disciples of the Flames sole vessel, the Ebon Drake, illustrate the courage and tenacity with which these scattered survivors of Legions believed defeated would still hinder the Traitors' carefully laid out plans. Although their decisive actions in the Third Siege of Mezoa are undeniable and are still remembered today, since the Great Scouring, a thick and impenetrable veil of secrecy and mystery surrounds the Disciples of the Flames, all data regarding them having been cleansed from the records of their parent Legion. What information can be gathered about them mostly comes from the data-vaults of noble Mezoa itself, the Forge World the Disciples of the Flames helped to save during the Heresy as well as their own scripture, the Prophecies of the Flames, which is nowadays considered a proscribed reading.
