*'''Granit Crown''' - perhaps the most terrible of all the cults. Its symbol is a blinded eye. It is believed that the leaders of this cult have a considerable power that even mutants pay tribute to them. Therefore, the history of the Granit Crown passed from the serf to serf, having become more and more terrible at time.{{Fn|3b}}
*'''Brotherhood of Malice'''. At some time on the planet broke out a rebellion – the unknown Chaos Cult promise the miners freeing from the labour and the Emperor’s Tithe. The [[Inquisition]] uncovered and eradicated this cult but some of unholy texts (in the form of the copies) survived. Miners were astonished at what they have read and some of them create the cult that believes that the planet simply don’t deserved the forgiveness and had to be destroyed or exterminatied by Imperium. They called themselves as the Brotherhood of Malice and embarked on their insane mission, trying to cause enough trouble that the forces of the Imperium would come and purge this planet. But Sepherus Secundus holds a great importance to the Calixis Sector. So the authorities decided to eliminated the Brotherhood instead. After the cultist have destroyed some important object, the [[Imperial Guard]]{{Fn|1c}} [[97th Battalion]]{{Fn|1d}} arrived and after the two days of pitched fighting cleaned out all of the cult members. Few of the survivors run for the deep of the Shatters though and the Imperial Guard follow them there. But the brave soldiers found there not only the remained cultists but a mutants and daemons also. For there was strange and dangerous '''Antithesis Stone''' that turned people to the grotesque mutants. Of the all Guardsman who descent to Shatters only a handful return, babbling about blood, mutants and death. Commissar{{Fn|1c}} [[Nihilius]]{{Fn|1e}} decided to seal the Shatters at all and call for Inquisition. Instead of the real Inquisitors their [[Acolyte]]s arrived though and with some luck and sheer ignorance seasoned with bravery, they were able to destroy the Stone and complete the mission. It remains unknown though whether the connection between the ill-fated Brotherhood of Malice, who were just heretics, with some of the greatest Chaos cults of the planet.{{Fn|1c}}
