Following the destruction of the original Warhammer world by the forces of Chaos, Sigmar floated aimlessly through space, clutching onto the metal core of the previous world of Warhammer. Long Sigma drifted through space until he was rescued by the great celestial dragon Dracothion, who led Sigmar to the "Mortal Realms". Surviving souls were drawn to these realms but the respite was short lived, as once again the forces of Chaos struck.
