The Dream Reapers (Somniorum Messores) originated from a noble detachment of Ultramarines, which accompanied an Imperial Guard division. They, in turn, were protecting settlers and miners terraforming Laurentix, long before the Eye of Terror era.
Throughout the millennia, many ‘changes’ occurred on the desolate, geologically-tumultuous mining planet, which was Laurentix. The Dream Reapers secured a sub-Laurentixien monastery. The Imperial Guard developed into the Laurentix Planetary Defence Force (LPDF), housed, predominantly, in grav-assisted habdomes, overlying massive sub-Laurentixian complexes.
The rest is history ...
"The inevitable sense of doom pervaded the worlds of the Belis Corona system, despite the Commissars’ and military commanders’ best attempts at maintaining the people’s sagging morale. Laurentix was seized by riots in virtually all of its scattered mining settlements, and soon contact was lost with the world."
"Faced with both the pustulant forces of the Death Guard, and the voracious hordes of Tyranids who were, unlike the human defenders, immune to the Plague God's blessings, the forces of the Imperium were hard pressed to defend the vital worlds of the sector. It was first the intervention of Eldar of the Ulthwe Craftworld and then the orbital bombardment of Laurentix that allowed the forces of the Imperium to fight back, despite the disastrous ambush of forward elements of Battlefleet Solar at the Bairsten Prime jump point."
Thus was the origin of the Laurentixian inhabitants ... and was their sorry fate.
