wh40k.lexicanum.com/wiki/Knightsblade_(Novel ) (read directly in a browser on 2026-10-03), dramatis personae, The Exiles: 'Captain Shas - Captain of the former navy cruiser Unbroken', 'First Officer Mister Klem'. https://wh40k.lexicanum.com/wiki/Exiles_(Freeblade_Lance): 'The Exiles operated out of the Cruiser Unbroken' (Knightsblade ch. 8). NAME-COLLISION CHECK: Lexicanum 'Unbroken' redirects to Unbroken (Short Story), a 2014 Chris Wraight Space Wolves story set on Armageddon, which is NOT this ship; 'Unbroken_(Cruiser)' does not exist (checked 2026-10-03); no index record uses the id or label.

The Exiles operated out of the Cruiser Unbroken' (Lexicanum Exiles_(Freeblade_Lance), ch. 8). Where she was during the five-year hunt is published nowhere, so no other dock is asserted.
