Codex: Tyranids

"There is a cancer eating at the Imperium. With each decade it advances deeper, leaving drained, dead worlds in its wake. This horror, this abomination, has thought and purpose which functions on an unimaginable, galactic scale and all we can do is try to stop the swarms of bio-engineered monsters it unleashes upon us almost by instinct. WE have given the horror a name to salve our fears; we call it the Tyranid race, but if it is aware of us at all it mus know us only as Prey."Inquisitor Czevak at the Conclave of Har from The Har Transcriptorium
