She purses her lips, considering how to explain the Eye. They're far beyond any sort of secrecy at this point, official policy be damned, but she's not certain how you convey the horrors of the Warp to someone who, she's pretty sure, predates the Age of Strife.]
It's a tear in the fabric of reality. Beyond it lies the Warp...the realm of Chaos. Time and space cease to have any real meaning, and any horror you can imagine makes its home there.
[Quite literally, given that the Warp reflects the contents of living beings' minds, not that Mira really understands that part.]
After the Emperor and His [yeah you can hear the capital letter] loyal sons broke the back of the rebel Legions at Terra, the surviving traitors fled through the Eye, where their Dark Gods could protect them from the Emperor's justice.
[Emperor good, Chaos bad, apparently.]
A hundred centuries later, they're still there. They're constantly launching nuisance raids [what a Cadian considers a "nuisance raid" would be considered more of a "crime against humanity" in a sane society], and perhaps once a millennium or so, they manage to get past their squabbling to attack en masse and be defeated like they were before.
