But instead of salvation, a towering Chaos creature stood before them, over two meters tall.
At its feet lay the bodies of the armored xenos and several Chaos creatures.
"You finally opened the door..."
The creature spoke in Eden's voice, its twisted face radiating glee.
The survivors fell into despair.
They had been deceived.
The Chaos creature gripped the doorframe, ready to force its way in.
Nothing could stop it now.
Just as fear reached its peak, the creature was yanked backward.
"You dare impersonate me?"
Eden slammed the creature to the ground, pummeling it with his golden fists until its flesh and blood splattered.
He delivered a final kick, shaking off the blood on his hand, and ordered his guards:
"Finish it."
Ignoring the creature, Eden turned to the survivors, his expression softening into a warm smile.
"Survivors, you're safe now. Welcome home."
Behind him, the guards raised their bolters, unleashing a barrage of gunfire on the Chaos creature.
Its agonized screams ended as it was reduced to a bloody pulp.
We're saved!
Tis's emotions overflowed as she dropped to her knees, tears streaming freely.
"Governor!"
She sobbed uncontrollably, her pent-up emotions finally released.
Following a thorough sweep of the royal district, all Chaos creatures in Starspire Port were eradicated.
Tens of thousands of survivors were rescued from various areas.
With the Chaos creatures dealt with, supplies of energy, food, and more were transported from the surface, along with nearly 300,000 new inhabitants.
The Mechanicus deployed nearly their entire force, taking over the starport to carry out critical tasks in fleet construction.
Soon, the starport resumed full operations.
Starport Command Center
In a luxurious room, Eden stood by the viewport, holding a glass of red wine as he gazed at the stars.
"It's time to salvage the ships from the Warp!"
