The Order of the Golden Spyre are a lesser Order of the Adepta Sororitas.[1]

History

Their monastery is located in Hive Novgorhod, which is located in the Silurian System Hive World, Siluria IV. The Hive is home to the Ecclesiarchy Cardinal of the Silurian worlds, who resides in a palace within the upper levels of the Hive known as the Spyres. Because of the Cardinal's presence, Novgorhod has a heavy Ecclesiarchy presence and the Order of the Golden Spyre are among the Adepta Sororitas' forces that defend it. Their heavily guarded monasteries are respected by the Hive's population, but it is not unknown for the GoldenSpyre and other Orders to be unleashed upon rabble-rousers. These displays of might not only put down Recidivists, but also reinforce the faith of Novgorhod's population in the Ecclesiarchy. The Hive's Sororitas are often called upon by the Inquisition to conduct various secretive needs, as well as for off-world battles. This includes the recent counterattack against the Ork invasion on Siluria III.[1]
