Greatest
of all man’s artifice are the God-Machines of the Legio-Titanicus. Photo-bright the
discharge of their weapons, shattering the fragile vault of the sky and smiting your
enemies to dust. Oh metal god! Hear me, oh Omnissiah! Behold! The glorious engine of
the Legio Praesagius, Perpetua-Voluntas. Its keel laid down on the Gantz Forge World
in the outset of the Great Crusade, Perpetua-Voluntas walked alongside the XIII Legion
in many missions of compliance. The True Messengers were the tip of the spear for the
Eastern Fringe, and the Perpetua-Voluntas was no exception; earning more than seven
titan class kills against Gargants in the campaign against the Orks of the Mordant Zone.
However, it was on Calth that the Perpetua-Voluntas, the Unbroken Will, was to gaze
into abyss of treachery and prevail. Cut off from its brother titans in the outskirts of
Ithraca, Perpetua-Voluntas fought off no more than three hunting packs; Traitor
warhound engines, of the Legio Suturvota Fire Masters. Battlegroup Argentus called
upon all allied engines to rally on the crashed transport Aratan. There, trapped amidst
the downed transport, was the majority of the True Messengers strength, including the
Warmonger class Immortalis-Domitar. Perpetua-Voluntas was able to reach the
parklands, killing several Fellblade super-heavy tanks assaulting the transport. The
rescue of the Warmonger turned a desperate defense into an unmitigated triumph.
Traitor Titans and their Word Bearer allies were turned back and routed. Perpetua-
Voluntas scored four engine kills in the rout, including a warlord, Omnis-Pulvis, that
collapsed like a punch-drunk pit fighter onto a retreating column of Word Bearers and
suffered a catastrophic reactor breach.
In the bloody struggle of the Shadow Crusade, Perpetua-Voluntas was forced to stand
by and undergo refitting following the damage sustained at Calth; solar radiation and the
Fire Masters damaged many critical systems. Thereafter, the scars were regarded as
battle honors greater even than the kill markings on their banners. The engine will walk
oh Ohmnissiah, from Ultramar to Terra and to the endings of the galaxy, never faltering,
never failing to be a perfect cog in the great works of the Imperium.
