After this she was sent to the world of Parnis for an investigation into the lost convent of the [[Orders Pronatus]]. There, the lost convent had been shaped into the Screaming Cage by the once-imprisoned demon they studied, their bodies and minds linked so that their suffering would be shared, but inadvertently their faith was shared as well. When Ephrael Stern fell in battle while free of the taint of chaos, the 700 souls saw their chance and used their combined might to heal her, strengthen her and make her faster, and pour their knowledge into her. Only Sister Stern returned, the sole survivor of the forces sent there, with her sanity stretched to the limit.

Sister '''Ephrael Stern''', also known as the Thrice-Born, was promised before birth to the [[Sisters of Battle]], and raised at the [[Saint Sabbat]] [[Schola Progenium]] on the planet Antigone's Harbour. She was submitted for consideration by the Arch Drill-abbot of the school and was accepted by Sister Patricia from the [[Order of the Holy Seal]].
Sister Stern excelled as a novice, and took her Oaths of Adherence together with five hundred other novices at the [[Ecclesiarchal Palace]] on [[Terra]]. She was chosen to join the [[Order of Our Martyred Lady]]. After this she was stationed on [[Ophelia VII]] where an exemplary service record led to her being elevated to the rank of [[Seraphim]] in record time. Three years later she was ordained as a [[Sister Superior]].
For four years she was held in a cell in the Convent Prioris on Ophelia VII so that her nature could be determined, until she was attacked by a Sister controlled by a chaos demon to silence Stern before that could happened, who Ephrael attacked and killed with her bare hands, setting events in motion once more.
