The '''{{PAGENAME}}Three Sisters of Spite''' was a name given by the [[Imperial Fists]] [[Space Marine Legion|Legion]]{{Fn|1b}}, to three [[Frigate]]s, in their fleet: the '''Lachrymae''', '''Ophelia''' and '''Persephone'''. The three ships were originally given as a gift to the [[Primarch]] [[Rogal Dorn]], by his brother [[Roboute Guilliman]] and since that time, the {{PAGENAME}} Three Sisters of Spite always went into battles as a group; where they earned a fearsome reputation. During the later years of the [[Horus Heresy]], the {{PAGENAME}} Three Sisters of Spite served under [[Space Marine Captain|Captain]] [[Sigismund]]'s command, as part of [[Terra]]'s First Sphere of defense; with the Lachrymae serving as the Captain's personal command ship. Though there were larger ships Sigismund could have used, he chose the Lachrymae due to it being the fastest ship under his command{{Fn|1a}}. This speed greatly aided the Lachrymae and her Sisters, when the [[Alpha Legion]] attacked the [[Sol System]] and by fighting together the Frigates were able to take a great toll on the [[Traitor]]s' ships.{{Fn|1c}}
