I’ve been looking for a lore blurb or something and it’s driving me insane
Not sure if it was lore or fan fiction. Might have been from one of the RPGs. Written as a log from an assistant of someone influential or powerful, they arrive at a planet, one of them is sick. Shit starts to hit the fan, some apocalyptic event corrupts the planet, people turn to crow monsters or something. Feels like a fever dream trying to explain it.
Thanks
From the Dark Heresy RPG supplement Disciples of the Dark Gods (2008) page 14:
By the machine god thank you, it was driving me insane, I couldn’t find a single mention, I even resorted to chatgpt with vague descriptions and it stopped working
Driving you insane, just as the Tyrant Star should. Go with the Emperor's peace, my child.
This is the only unique part of the story :)
I did a search and found the "Crow Legion" but that is on the Warhammer 40,000 Fanon wiki. What I read there didn't match what you were looking for.
Its maddening, I spent 4 hours between Reddit, both wikis and google. Couldn’t find anything

It sounds like one 😅
Idk I don't recall ever even hearing of a similar story in 40k. Are you certain it's not from some other sci fi universe?
All I remember is that it might have had something to do with the Tyrant Star from the RPG books. But that’s all my neurons can conjure up

If you haven't read Dracula yet give it a try.
