History
The 71st company, known as "The Tempered Storm", was one of the few Salamanders companies not present on Istvaan V during the massacre that destroyed much of the legion. At the time of the Massacre, they had been heavily engaged against xenos pirates in the Ultima segmentum and unable to immediately answer their Primarch's recall order.
After completely eradicating the Xenos holdouts, the 71st attempted to return to Nocture at best speed but for reasons unknown the warp had become extremely turbulent and nigh impossible to navigate. Despite the best efforts of their navigators, the fleet was thrown well off course and upon translation back to real space it has found itself in the Cambrius sector.
