After our tour of the realms, we are ready to get stuck back in to the Realmgate Wars, this time with the third book in the series, Godbeasts. While the Realm of Life is now back in contention as Alarielle grows into her war aspect, Archaon has recently gained a massive victory against the Stormcasts in the Realm of Metal and he is now ready to unleash the next phase of his plans – the subjugation of the titanic Godbeasts and the power they command.
The Story So Far
Since the Stormcasts first arrived in Aqshy and created a beachhead within the Brimstone Peninsula, defeating the forces of Lord Khul in the process, war has spread throughout the Realm of Fire.
Moving from the Brimstone Peninsula and the Scarred Isle, the Stormcasts launched an attack on the land of Asphyxia, hammering the forces of Chaos in general, and Khorne in particular, wherever they were encountered. The Bloodbound reacted to this with bloodthirsty joy, welcoming battle as the war gathered momentum. Drawn to this immense bloodshed was none other than the Consort of Khorne herself, Valkia the Bloody.
The fight for Asphyxia ground on for weeks, and corpses began to pile high, drawing yet more of the Bloodbound to action. High above, daemons on the Orb of Infernia watched, biding their time and waiting for a chance to plunge into the war.
The Daemon Prince Lord Skinskein reached out to Lord Khul, letting him know his old nemeses, the Stormcasts, were on Asphyxia. He proposed that Lord Khul should attack on one flank of Sigmar's forces while he assaulted the other, cutting off any retreat. Thus Lord Khul's vengeance would be complete.
When Lord Khul finally sighted the Stormcasts, his rage was boundless. He paid no heed to the deaths among his own forces as many succumbed to a strange malady, only thinking them too weak to fight along his side. Joined by Valkia the Bloody, Lord Khul unleashed the full fury of his Bloodbound upon the Stormcast Eternals.
