Aurilla is an Imperial Shrine World, that once held the holy relic known as the Aurillian Shroud.[1]
History
It was among the Shrine Worlds that Lord Commander Guilliman asked the Black Templars' High Marshal, Helbrecht, to defend in M42.[2] He agreed to do so and this led to the formation of the Shrine World Crusades.[3] During the course of defending Aurilla, however, the Black Templars recovered the Shroud from the world and the relic now resides with the Chapter.[1]
