Goviian is an Imperial Mining World, whose orange desert wastelands hold reserves of Promethium beneath their surfaces. These are drawn up by Pilgrim Extractors, which have left numerous sinkholes across Goviian's surface, due to the over-extraction of the fuel. The world is also home to the Burning Wyrm Genestealer Cult, which has now caused an uprising that the 88th Tallarn Regiment has been sent to end. However their efforts were highly hindered by one of the Cult's Alphus, who wreaked havoc on the 88th's command structure. Her reign of terror was finally ended, though, when the Alphus was killed by the Vindicare Assassin Absolom Raithe.[1]
