Frumenta is an Imperial Agri World, that was once infested by Orks until the Astra Militarum arrived and cleansed the Xenos.[1]
History
However, in the decades since becoming an Agri World, Frumenta would occasionally suffer attacks from Feral Orks, due to the Xenos' fungal spores. The world's militia was enough to deal with the attacks, until in late M41 when a Genestealer Cult uprising began on Frumenta. The militia played a key part in this, as it was infested with the Cult's members and Frumenta would be forced to send out a plea for aid.[1]
It was received by the Imperium and Lord General Zyvan led an Astra Militarum task force to aid the world. Upon their arrival, the task force overwhelmed the Genestealer Cult and its surviving members retreated to the mountainous Cascades region. In peaceful times, it was a popular tourist destination, which was home to a sparse population and rugged terrain the Cult's members hoped to hide in. The Militarum task force pursued the Cult into the Cascades, though, and started hunting down its members, while also combating the Feral Orks that infest the region. Among those who took part in battle was the retired Commissar Ciaphas Cain, who was serving in Lord General Zyvan's general staff.[1]
