The '''Cain Archive ''' is a series of files and documents written by [[Commissar]] [[Ciaphas Cain]] during his retirement.  == History ==The Cain Archive (so termed by [[Ordo Xenos]] [[Inquisitor]] [[Amberley Vail]]) is not to be confused with Cain's official memoirsautobiography, "To Serve the Emperor: A Commissar's Life". The archive was compiled while he was a tutor at the [[Schola Progenium]] , beginning around the year 993.M41. As stated by [[Ordo Xenos]] [[Inquisitor]] [[Amberley Vail]], who spent some years editing and annotating the archive, there seems to be no order or chronology to the written accounts that were stuffed onto a single data slate.<sup>1</sup>
Sadly, due to the sensitive nature of many of the accounts within, Amberly was forced to place the archive under Inquisitional when it came to her attention sometime during 005.M42. The primary reason for sequestering the archive was to hide the fact that Cain himself admits to be self serving and quite the scoundrel, contrary his image as a hero of the [[Imperium]]. The other reason is due to various interactions with [[xenos]] creatures and agents of [[Chaos]].<sup>1</sup>
