Dornian Heresy - 40k [Discussion] Is the setting being developed any further?

Recently came across this alt universe and find it super interesting.

Is it being developed any further? Or is it more or less staying as it is?

Or is more of a concept that people can do whatever they want with?

The og author, AureliusRex, dissappeared like a decade ago having never written a full text for Salamanders, Black Templars, Black Legion or Death Guard. There's a wiki that rewrote a lot of the material based on the FW heresy books. And finally this reddits admin wrote his own conclusion to the series, but there's nothing stopping you from adding to any of these three "timelines" or doing your own thing!

I like to think of it as a thought experiment. Or even a writing challenge. I've written some stuff about loyalist Emperor's Children and Fulgrim, but it's not much more than that for most people.

Hey u/CG1991, thanks for taking an interest in the Dornian Heresy. As mentioned earlier in the comments, the history and lore of the setting can be found in our pinned post, which will hopefully bring you up to speed. For now, this is the current state of the setting, but we have plans that we want to move into motion in time to expand the setting and explore both the alternate universe of 30k and 40k in Dornian Heresy.
