The Engine: The Tech Heresy That Saved a Warship | Warhammer 40K Lore

He was nineteen when he found the mistake in the holy plans. He was told to pray about it. On a forge world of the Imperium, a human copyist helps build the plasma drive of a Lunar class cruiser from sacred plans nobody understands, watches the flaw kill his best friend, and sails with the engine for twenty years, until a battle forces him to do the one thing the Machine Cult forbids.
