'''Vior'la''' is a [[Tau]] [[Sept]] which orbits a binary star and is known for its extreme temperatures and difficult living conditions. The planet passes through a gap of two stars each year, causing plasma storms to ravage the planet in a time called the "Trial by Fire".{{Fn|3}} The word Vior'la literally translates as "hot blooded".{{Fn|1}}
==History==
It is known that the Sept broke many of the [[Ork]] invasions and the most respected Fire caste academies reside there.{{Fn|4a}}
In [[M40|600.M40]], Vior'la was invaded by a massive Ork fleet under [[Warboss]] [[Garskrak]] around the time of the Trial by Fire.{{Fn|3}} The inhabitants of the planet survived by closing around their cities the protective domes, and the brave [[Pathfinders]]{{Fn|4c}} lured the Ork hordes to the deadly plasma storms where they were destroyed by the raging radiation.{{Fn|3}}{{Fn|4c}}
At an unknown date, Vior'la was again invaded, this time from the [[World Eaters]] [[Chaos Space Marines]]. The World Eaters horde is primarily made up of crazed [[Khorne Berzerkers]] and [[Chaos Spawn]]s. However, the Tau's firepower and discipline seems the Chaos forces held at arms length until the rage of Khorne begins to break out amongst the Tau ranks. The Tau abandon long-distance tactics and engage the enemy in melee combat, which does not bode well for them. Millions die before a council of six [[Ethereal]]s are scrambled to the site to lend their calming influence to the [[Fire Warrior]]s. This restores order and allow the Tau to withdraw into orbit before the World Eaters can complete the slaughter.{{Fn|5}}
