Illias is a planet of the Corvus Sub-sector.
History
A labyrinth-like world, its surface is littered with maze-like ruins of cathedrals, abandoned hives, and temples. The planet was heavily industrialised early in its colonisation and soon became a Hive World. However, the coming of the Crow's Eye saw the planet descend into anarchy and destruction, and most of its hives have since been abandoned. The planet remains in a state of perpetual civil war as rival gangs and factions battle over remaining industry.[1]
During the Crusade of Fire, Illias saw heavy fighting between the World Eaters and Imperial forces, including the Howling Griffons and Flesh Tearers Chapters.[1]
