At the height of her powers she counted at her side many of the time's most brilliant strategists including [[Kiodrus|Lord Kiodrus]], the great field commander who one day was himself beatified, as well as the strategist Faltornus, and many other notables. Her host included warriors of the [[Astartes]] including the [[Brazen Skulls]] and the [[White Scars]], as well as a command of [[Sisters Militant]], colonial regiments, and pilgrim retinues.
Some theorise a connection between the Saint and the [[Order of Our Martyred Lady]], but this is doubtful and is most likely simple legend as she lived seven hundred years before the Adepta Sororitas were instated. The [[Ayatani]] priests of her private order trace out those parts of her crusade that are still accessible to this day, from Hagia to [[Harkalon]] and back.
The Saint's crusade endured for 105 years, until her martyrdom on Harkalon, where she suffered the [[Nine Holy Wounds]]. Her body was retrieved by the [[White Scars]] and interred on Hagia. The sector that would go on to bear her name was already considered fully functioning Imperial territory at the time of her death.
