The Imperial Guardsmen’s palace defenses are shattered by relentless fire, and the loyal forces press deeper until they confront stragglers desperate to protect the traitor. A final attempt to stop Azrael and his Terminators is revealed as a line of suicide bombers, but the lone attacker is stopped when weapons fail and a comrade delivers the decisive shot. The campaign culminates at the throne room, where an unexpected black-armoured Space Marine is found instead of the governor.",{"@graph":14,"@context":73},[15,34,56],{"@type":16,"itemListElement":17},"BreadcrumbList",[18,23,27,31],{"item":19,"name":20,"@type":21,"position":22},"https://docshare.wps.com","Home","ListItem",1,{"item":24,"name":25,"@type":21,"position":26},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/","Document",2,{"item":28,"name":29,"@type":21,"position":30},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/story-novel/","Story & Novel",3,{"item":32,"name":10,"@type":21,"position":33},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/azrael-protector-of-secrets/517560/",4,{"url":32,"name":10,"@type":35,"image":36,"author":41,"headline":10,"publisher":44,"fileFormat":47,"inLanguage":8,"description":12,"dateModified":48,"datePublished":49,"encodingFormat":47,"isAccessibleForFree":50,"interactionStatistic":51},"DigitalDocument",{"url":37,"@type":38,"width":39,"height":40},"https://docshare.wps.com/thumbnails/azrael-protector-of-secrets/517560.png","ImageObject",300,407,{"name":42,"@type":43},"Ben ","Person",{"url":19,"name":45,"@type":46},"DocShare","Organization","application/pdf","2026-10-27","2026-10-07",true,{"@type":52,"interactionType":53,"userInteractionCount":55},"InteractionCounter",{"@type":54},"ViewAction",6,{"@type":57,"mainEntity":58},"FAQPage",[59,65,69],{"name":60,"@type":61,"acceptedAnswer":62},"What happens to the palace during the Imperial assault?","Question",{"text":63,"@type":64},"The palace doors are blown off with extreme force, killing many traitorous Imperial Guardsmen instantly.

Of those that survived, many wished they had been among the initial fatalities as, through the clearing smoke, wave after wave of Godesian Imperial Guard swept into the palace, flanked by the unmistakable ivory-clad terminators ofthe Dark Angels First Company, the Deathwing.  \nThose that did not turn and flee immediately were cut down by a wall of lasrifle and storm bolter fire; those that did remained breathing for only a few seconds longer. As soon as those guns had dealt with the treacherous brave, they were turned upon the traitorous cowards.  \nIn their wake, as both Godesian and Dark Angel alike picked off the last of the enemy, Supreme Grand Master Azrael strode into the grand entrance hall, its splendour now diminished by the nicks and crevices blown out of the ornate walls and the layer of blood bathing the floor. At his side marched MajorGeneral Thaddeus Absalom, Lord Commander of the Ninth Godesian Battlegroup and overall commander of the hundred thousand Imperial Guardsmen who had come to Exemeter VII to quell its governor ’s sedition. Behind him, battle banner held proudly aloft, came the major-general’s youngest son, the deep ochre of the standard matching his and his father ’s uniforms. The winged skull icon embroidered onto the banner was also present on the sleeves and lapels ofthe immaculate uniform, but the insignia emblazoned below that, the winged sword of the Dark Angels, awarded for the Godesians’ valour during the year-long campaign, was not to be found on the Imperial Guardsmen’s tunics.  \nThe sound of gunfire and the screams and pleas of the dying began to abate  \nand Azrael turned to Absalom.  \n‘Come, lord commander. Your men and my Deathwing will secure the palace. We have a traitor to slay.’  \nIn the face of the Imperial assault, one spearheaded by Space Marines no less, the traitor Guardsmen had fled the palace in droves. As Absalom and Azrael, escorted by a ten-man squad of bodyguards and two Deathwing respectively, progressed through the palace they encountered only those most loyal to the man who had turned an entire world.  \nAbsalom and Azrael quickly found out just how desperate these stragglers were to protect that traitor.  \nEmerging from around a corner, dozens of enemy foot soldiers charged down the resplendent hallway, shouting defiant oaths and opening up with their lasrifles. The response from the Godesian elite and the three Dark Angels was emphatic, their coordinated fusillade mowing down the front ranks with ease. Strangely, some of the traitors exploded when hit, their deaths appearing to becaused by grenades rather than bolt shells or las-fire.  \n‘They’re wearing bomb vests,’ said Azrael. ‘Suicide bombers.’  \nWithout needing to issue the order, the Terminators and Godesians aimed for the heads ofthe remaining traitors. All fell save one. Azrael charged to meet him while his two battle-brothers’ storm bolters reloaded and the Godesians inserted fresh power packs into their lasrifles. Raising Lion s’ Wrath, the Supreme Grand Master pulled the trigger of the ancient combi-weapon’s bolter.  \nNothing happened.  \nThe lone traitor continued onwards, almost in range to detonate the high explosives strapped to his chest. Azrael engaged the plasma gun portion of the combi-weapon, but met with the same response. Muttering a silent curse to the Techmarine who had supposedly blessed the archaic gun before the battle, Azrael reached for the hilt of the Sword of Secrets, hoping that it would be clear of its scabbard before the suicide bomber could detonate his payload.  \nThe lord of the Dark Angels need not have worried.  \nA single shot rang out and the traitor collapsed to the floor","cbCaikb7NRKgMCgm","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaikb7NRKgMCgm","pdf",463440,12,"English","# Azrael: Protector of Secrets\n## Assault on the Palace\n## The Suicide Bomber Threat\n## The Throne Room Revelation","[{\"question\":\"What happens to the palace during the Imperial assault?\",\"answer\":\"The palace doors are blown off with extreme force, killing many traitorous Imperial Guardsmen instantly.
