==History==
The world was originally part of the [[Necrontyr]] race and became a [[Tomb World]] for the [[Ammunos Dynasty]]. According to legend it became the resting place of their last [[Phaeron]], [[Nephreth]]. Nephreth left a star map to his tomb via an artifact known as the [[Astrarium Mysterios]]. The tomb itself could only open every few centuries or millennia when certain astrological formations aligned.{{Fn|1}} A notable feature of Serenade was the "Song" of the planet, in fact a reflection of a numeric sequence emitting from Nephreth's tomb. The sequence, "3211-1545-4131-5322", repeated for eternity and would subconsciously influence the lifeforms and cultures of the planet. It could be seen in almost every facet of life on Serenade over the millennia. To Necrons, heavy exposure and investigation into the song could result in succumbing to madness.{{Fn|1b}} It was eventually revealed that the song's numeric sequence, when applied to sections of the historical dramas of the Necrontyr, translated to ''"do not be [[The Deceiver|deceived]]"''.{{Fn|1e}}
In [[M31]] [[Trazyn the Infinite]] and [[Orikan the Diviner]] began to compete with one another over who would gain access to Nephreth's tomb and the wonders within. Trazyn struck first, fighting through hordes of [[Eldar]] [[Exodite]]s who had settled on the [[Maiden World]] then known as Cepharil to try and get to the tomb.
