You cannot stop me now.” –Illuminor Szeras Searching for Truth is the fourth War Pack in the Death World cycle for Warhammer 40,000: Conquest. On the surface of Nectavus VI, an ancient being has waited and watched for centuries. As blood rains down from tainted skies and the power of the Warp is unleashed above the jungle canopy, this ancient watcher rises at last. He has observed the secret workings of the galaxy and seen things beyond the eyes of mortals. Now, he will lead the Necrons to restore their dynasties and renew their dominion over the entire galaxy. Journey once more into the treacherous jungles of Nectavus VI with Searching for Truth, the fourth War Pack in the Death World cycle for Warhammer 40,000: Conquest!
