Acheron IV is an Imperial Hive World, that has nearly been conquered by the Orks of Waaagh! Uggrot.[1]
It is also the site of a Shrine dedicated to Saint Helena and in response to the Ork invasion, Canoness Verena Armenii of the Argent Shroud led a battlehost to save the Saint's relics. When they arrived, the Shrine had been destroyed, though Verena hoped to find the relics amongst its ruins. While the battlehost succeeded in their goal, they paid a high price to do so, as the Canoness and a large number of their Sisters were killed by the Orks.[1]
