You are a Space Marine of the Ultramarines, a hundred and thirty-three years old, and this is Black Reach, in the year 855.M41. This is the century after the Battle of Macragge, lived from inside the First Company. A conclave in the Temple of Correction, and the dictates of the Codex rewritten for the first time in the Chapter's history. A hive that grows in a forest on Espandor. A world that burns by your Chapter Master's order. The armour of a man who died behind the door you opened, and the Crux Terminatus on its shoulder. Then Black Reach: Cato Sicarius and the Warboss Zanzag in the eye of the storm, Torias Telion's patient shot that kills nobody, a waterfall, the mine tunnels, and a choice between the Warboss you came to kill and the friend who has called you Shepherd for more than a hundred years. Part 3 of THE SPACE MARINE: your life as an Ultramarine, told in pixel art, faithful to the Warhammer 40,000 lore. Part 1 (how a boy becomes an Ultramarine) and Part 2 (the Battle of Macragge) are in the series playlist. The sound is kept soft all the way through: good for a long listen, or for falling asleep to. On Black Reach, would you have stopped for Brennus again, or held your place in the line?
