Lady Haera Helmawr, the 13th trueborn daughter of Lord Gerontius Helmawr, has ascended to the throne of Necromunda while her father lays at death's door in stasis. In Book 1 of the Aranthian Succession – Cinderak Burning – we learned that she got there by inviting her siblings to a lovely tea party… and then systematically slaughtering them over the hors d'ouevres. The latest Apocrypha Necromunda tells the story of exactly how Lady Haera butchered six of her rivals. Owen from the Necromunda team is here to explain more about this epic showdown of esoteric tech and frenetic fratricide. Owen: Blood in the Spire places us in the heights of Hive Primus, in the aftermath of the assassination attempt on Lord Gerontius Helmawr. Lady Haera, in her infinite cunning, has invited her surviving siblings (her most deadly rivals) to a meeting of the trueborn heirs of Gerontius Helmawr.
