Cyria Tyro
Cyria Tyro was an adjutant of General Kurov during the Third War for Armageddon.[1a]
She was posted to Hive Helsreach to act as a liaison between the native Armageddon-based defence forces (primarily the 101st Steel Legion under Colonel Sarren) and the off-world defenders that were assigned to Helsreach, most notably the Black Templars of the Helsreach Crusade under Reclusiarch Grimaldus.[1b] In this capacity she worked closely with Major Ryken of the 101st.[1a]
By the end of the siege of Helsreach, Tyro and Ryken were part of a division of the 101st that were cut off from Colonel Sarren and the bulk of the regiment. Instead of trying to link back up with Sarren, the division made their way to one of the final rally points left in the hive, the Temple of the Emperor Ascendant.[1c]
