NeocoreGames just launched a free short story series called The Caligari Archivum to expand the lore of their upcoming game Warhammer 40,000: Inquisitor-Martyr. For those wondering, the game is planned for Xbox One. Hopefully it’ll be out on the console sometime next year.
According to the developers, The Caligari Archivum is a constantly expanding series of short stories and longer novellas in episodic format, written by various authors, all set in the Caligari sector. Above and Beyond is the first of these stories, a novella in four parts about an Inquisitorial investigation where an unexpected turn of events leads to a terrible discovery and proves that nightmares become real on the worlds which had lost the protection of the God-Emperor.
You can read the first episode of Áron Németh’s Above and Beyond for free at the Black Library.
