Shrine World on the fringes of the 6th Circle of the Finial sector, approximately 150 ly from Diamantina (Kazim). Famous for the devotion of its citizens and several holy sites guarded by the Sisters of Battle. Rugged terrain. Population 470 million, mostly settled along fertile strips of coastline or in conjunction with holy sites.
First visited by Castor en route to Calixis. Tricked the Canoness-Superior into providing him with 2 squads of Sisters, giving the fledgeling Daughters of the Word access to much-needed equipment (and some potential recruits).
Currently the site of a major invasions of the 10th.

Stage 3+4: Landing and consolidation. 10th Host has secured landing sites and critical assets with minimal losses despite heavy level of enemy fortification. Subsequent operations have secured all major objectives save the primary hive-fortress of the Sororitas. Marine losses during stage 4 have been low. Support troops have suffered moderate losses.
