Befonica
Befonica was an Adepta Sororitas Imperial Saint, whose embalmed remains became relics of the Ecclesiarchy.[1]
History
They were later taken to the Cardinal World Argolish and interred within the pleasure gardens of its Cardinal-exemplar. As time passed, however, Befonica's history became forgotten, including which Adepta Sororitas Order she belonged to. Centuries later and Befonica's remains had become another of the many relics on Argolish that had been lost and forgotten about. This was until the Necron invasion of the Argovon System, where the Cardinal World resided.[1]
Indomitus Crusade Task Force XI would later come to the system's aid and the Argovon Campaign began. Argolish would be invaded by the Necrons as well and it was during a battle between Imperial and Necron forces that Befonica's remains were rediscovered. When the Battle Sisters of Argolish's Order of the Iron Rosethorn learned of this, they immediately launched an expedition to recover Befonica's remains. While they were ultimately successful in bringing back the Saint's remains to Imperial-held territory, many of the Iron Rosethorn's Sisters died in battle with the Necrons to do so. For unknown reasons, specific details of the Order's battles with the invading Xenos while recovering the Saint's remains appear to have never been recorded.[1]
