Double-headed Eagle: Guilliman and Sanguis visit Mars.
Guilliman signed the Olympia Accords (Revised) with Mars Forging General.
Saint Gilles spent a week discussing religious and other matters with the Mars Forging General.

Doctrine Changes: The Martian Mechanicus revised its doctrines, altering 7896576 bytes of data to align with relevant sections of the Imperial State Church.
It is important to note that, regardless of whether it is the state religion or the changes made by the Martian Mechanicus, the core idea is that the Lord of Mankind is the savior of all mankind, and the offspring of the Lord of Mankind are gods walking on earth. Among them, Saint Gilles, as an archangel, is the representative of the emperor's will on earth.
In the tucked corners of these religious books, one can find scattered information about Hades, but like Hades himself, this part of the content remains hidden in the shadows for most of the empire, unknown to them.
For the Primarchs, apart from Mortalian, all other Primarchs opposed the Hades version for various reasons.
In the Storm Starfield, a religious version of the Hades legend began to spread.

Rog Dorn Disappearance: After most of the Empire’s Dark Side was reclaimed, most of the Imperial Fist, Primarch, and Mountain Array lost contact with the Empire in the Misty Starfield.
After the Star Torch was rekindled, the Star Speakers used by the Imperial Fist for communication were all "self-taught" psionicists provided by their navigator families. As a result, their communication with the Empire was not smooth and signal interruptions were frequent.
After two Terran years of being unable to contact the Imperial Fist, Roger Dorn, along with his Imperial Fist forces and the Mountain Array, were confirmed missing.
The last communications the Empire received before his disappearance were as follows:
+W…O…O…O…W…N…+

The world was forged in victory on Mars, and as the victor, Mars acquired Riza's renowned plasma technology.
As the rest of the world continued to forge its own future, opposition to Mars gradually diminished.

The Holy Time Has Arrived: Under the rule of Primarch Robert Guilliman, Saint Gilles, Anglon, and Vulcan, the Empire, having experienced the Age of Resurgence, has once again reached its zenith.
The Empire reached its zenith during this period, with productivity increasing dramatically, and the people on planets near Terra enjoyed long-term peace and stability.
Meanwhile, under the guidance of the Olympia Protocol (Revised), some new technologies developed by the Martian Mechanicus have gradually entered the field of practical application.
Pope Saint Gilles announced that the empire would next vigorously develop the state religion.
After accumulating wealth and the relentless promotion of the state religion throughout the empire's territory, people's acceptance and recognition of religion reached new heights.
The people of the Empire firmly believed that, under the leadership of the demigods, humanity would enter a new era.
On countless planets, magnificent churches rose from the ground, and believers sang endless praises to the Lord of Mankind and the demigods.
Aside from the far south storm star system, the devout prayers of human believers even created ripples of pale gold within the warp.
Among them, the subspace projection of Holy Terra was almost completely submerged in pale gold.

Chapter 544 Ten Thousand Years (2)
—————*War of the Beasts*—————
004.M32-
Dark Day: Three green-skinned battle moons appeared in the sky above Terra.
Regent Robert Guilliman immediately issued a call to arms, ordering chapters throughout the Empire to return to Terra and rejoin the original Legion to fight the Greenskins.
Due to the energy of the green-skinned WAAAGH and the tidal forces of the three battle moons, Terra's communication with the outside world has been cut off.
At the critical moment, Pope Saint Gilles used the power of faith to spread Guilliman's command to any star system where a state religion existed.
However, the Primarchs of Terra were unable to make contact with the Pale Lord stationed in the Storm Sector.
Because of their rejection of the state religion, the Death Guard and its followers are not near Terra.
Ordinary fleet attacks such as orbital bombardment, torpedoes, and light spears could not break through the air defenses of the battle moons. Without hesitation, Archangel Saint Gilles, Lord of Fire Dragons Vulcan, and Lord of Red Sand Angron immediately led the Primal Legion to forcibly land on the battle moons and engage in battle with the Greenskins above Terra. After paying a certain price, they destroyed two battle moons.
During the battle, it was discovered that these Orks who had abruptly torn open a rift in the warp and jumped to Terra possessed astonishing psionic talent, with their waaagh power far exceeding that of the Orks the Imperium had encountered before.
Saint Gilles personally captured a green-skinned boy. From the green-skinned boy, the Empire learned that the green-skinned remnants they were facing were the remnants of the Ulanno green-skinned party who had been thrown into the dark side of the Empire during the Great Rebellion.
During the Great Rebellion, the Dark Side of the Empire was engulfed by warp turbulence, and countless demons descended from the High Heavens into the real universe, bringing calamity to it.
But for the Greenskins, this means endless war, endless waaagh.
In the star systems where humanity has fallen on the dark side of the Empire, the Orks grow stronger and stronger in the battle against the warp demons, gradually forming a powerful Ork Empire.
Finally, the chief shaman of the Greenskin Empire prophesied that this waaaagh lifestyle was coming to an end. In order to continue this happy daily life forever, Beast, the leader of the Greenskin Empire, made a decisive decision: before the demon boys disappeared, he led all the Greenskins into the Warp to launch a great waaagh conquest.
It's worth noting that the Warp is not only home to the Chaos Four; the countless undead planets within it are also paradises for the Orks.
During the Great Waaagh Conquest, it is rumored that six Warboss personally gained the approval of Gorky and Mao, and they will lead the Greenskins to make the Greenskin Empire great again.
Now, the psionic echoes of human prayers have stirred up waves in the warp, rekindling the attention of the Greenskins. In pursuit of even more waagh enemies and wars, this Greenskin empire has chosen to return.
The Orks used their race-specific technology to teleport their advance force to the sector with the strongest psionic fluctuations—near Terra.
For the empire, this was nothing short of devastating news.
The Primarchs speculate that if the Orskins the Imperium is facing are indeed remnants of the Ulanor who jumped into the Warp during the Great Rebellion, then their power is unimaginable.
On the battlefield of Ulanno back then, it was the Emperor and his former War General who personally led the expedition and defeated its greatest warlord, "The Beast".
Even so, during the Great Crusade, the Empire paid a considerable price to wipe out the Greenskins of Ulanor.
Now, the Greenskins of the Great Crusade have returned, and this is a Greenskin empire that has fought against the Chaos Demons in the Warp for over a thousand years.
If this Greenskin Empire chooses to emerge entirely from the Warp to fight against the Empire, it will inflict damage on the Empire no less severe than the Great Rebellion.
The only good news is that, under the leadership of the demigods, the empire has long since emerged from the shadow of the Great Rebellion, and the human empire has reached its peak of power, enough to rival the Greenskin Empire.
After successfully capturing two battle moons, Pope Saint Gilles, standing atop the corpse of the warboss and raising the ugly green head, delivered an inspiring declaration of war speech.
Every human fighting against the Greenskins heard the speech of the Archangel Saint Gilles.
Meanwhile, after being caught off guard in the early stages, the massive empire, under the leadership of Regent Robert Guilliman, roared with all its might.
Mars dispatched a technical force, which, together with the Imperial Navy, pulled the two battle moons out of Terra's gravitational pull and destroyed the gravity devices inside the battle moons, causing the two massive war planets to collapse under gravity on their own.
Sanguis, Vulcan, and Angron, along with the first wave of Space Marines returning to Terra (mostly the Second Founding Chapters and the Space Wolves Mothers), prepared to launch an attack on the largest, third battle moon.
Before this, countless Ultramarines, Blood Angels, and Imperial Fists had been attacking the largest battle moon, holding back the green-skinned orcs on it, thus preventing this most threatening battle moon from supporting its comrades.
Because of its numerous green patches, this battle moon even appears to shimmer with a pale green fluorescence to the naked eye.
But this battle moon was strangely painted red by the green-skinned people.
After a brief assembly and parade at the Lionsgate in Terra, the massive army began its advance toward Battle Moon.
This arduous battle lasted for three full months on Terra.
