 Wolf's Dark Legacy

It was not only the sorcerous brethren of the Thousand Sons who were changed by the effects of the etheric tempest, but also the warriors of the Space Wolves. Almost all records of this phenomenon were suppressed in the aftermath of the Battle fbr Prospero, but some are still preserved in the vast stacks of the Imperial Archives on Terra for those few scholars who are granted access. The few surviving records describe a number of the Space Wolves undergoing a transformation when caught within the tendrils of the tempest; their armour splitting as limbs contorted and coarse hair sprouting across their bodies, becoming as the namesake of their Legion. Unlike the Thousand Sons, whose Flesh Change took on myriad forms, few with any cohesive or lasting theme, the Space Wolves who fell to the same affliction all suffered a seemingly identical curse. Whether this speaks of a different cause for the change that befell the Space Wolves, or some genetic flaw in the make-up of the Fenrisian warriors themselves, is unknown, and is a subject that the Space Wolves will not speak of. 

（马格努斯释放的）以太风暴的效果不仅影响到了千子军团使用巫术的战斗兄弟，也影响到了太空野狼的战士们。在普罗斯佩罗之战结束后，几乎所有关于这一现象的记录都遭到了封禁，但仍有某些档案被保存进了泰拉上帝国档案馆浩如烟海的馆藏中以供被给予权限的学者查阅。极少数幸存档案描述称许多太空野狼被卷入风暴的卷须时发生了形变，他们的肢体扭曲变形，全身冒出粗糙的毛发，撑破了动力甲，身体真的变成了军团的名字——野狼。不同于血肉变异呈现出各种形式、变异情况几乎没有一致性的千子，受困于相同折磨的太空野狼们似乎全都遭受了相同的诅咒。至于这种现象是说明了降临到太空野狼身上的变异有不同的原因，还是说明芬里斯裔战士自身的基因组成中有某些缺陷，我们不得而知，而且太空野狼也不会对此进行说明。

Some accounts indicate that Leman Russ and others of the Space Wolves commanders exerted some measure of control over their changed brethren even as the change took them—another marked difference from the Thousand Sons abominations who heeded orders from none. Other records disagree and paint these so called 'Wulfen' as just as indiscriminate and uncontrolled as those born of the Thousand Sons  hubris, killing without reason in a blood-fuelled rampage. Whichever is true, the very existence of the Wulfen would seem to question the assumption that it was purely the fault of the Thousand Sons.If the Flesh Change was not the result of the Thousand Sons' misuse of their powers, the crime for which they were to be destroyed, then the true cause must lie elsewhere and in the wake of their destruction and the tragedy to befall them later, it is likely it will remain a mystery.

某些证据表明：当太空野狼们发生变异之后，黎曼 鲁斯和其他太空野狼指挥官仍然以某些方式控制着他们——这是与千子们的另一个显著区别，发生可憎变异的千子战士不会听从其他人的命令。但其他记录驳斥了这种说法，并且描述这些所谓的“狼人”就和那些诞生于千子的傲慢的变异体一样不分青红皂白和不可控，在血腥的狂暴中毫无理智地屠杀。无论真相如何，狼人的存在似乎质疑了血肉变异纯粹是千子军团的过错这一假设。倘若血肉变异并非是千子们对于（灵能）力量的滥用导致的，那么导致他们被毁灭的罪行和一切的真实原因变是另有真相。不过在千子军团惨遭毁灭、悲剧已然发生之后，这份真相可能仍是一个迷。
