'''{{PAGENAME}}''' was a member of the [[Departmento Munitorum]] during the [[Great Crusade]] and [[Horus Heresy]].{{Fn|1}}
Born on [[Terra]] with a photographic memory, Ilya proved adept at all things logistical and was assigned as a Munitorum attaché to [[Jaghatai Khan]], [[Primarch]] of the [[White Scars]]. Ilya and Jaghatai grew somewhat close, often drinking wine and playing [[Wikipedia:Go (game)|Go]] together. Ilya served alongside Jaghatai during the [[Chondax Campaign]] and helped see him through the crisis that erupted in the White Scars during the Heresy. Ilya proved instrumental in stopping the attempted coup by [[Horus]] loyalists led by [[Hasik Noyan-Khan]], opening the docking bay of the [[Swordstorm]] for [[Shiban Khan]]'s loyalist forces and then activating the teleportarion beacon that allowed Jaghatai to return to his fleet.{{Fn|1}}
After the Siege, Ilya chose to retire from service. She met Jaghatai Khan, now conscious and slowly recovering, and Shiban for the final time before leaving for her old home with Sojuk. Along the way the two managed to kill a horrifically mutated surviving [[Chaos Space Marine]]. Restoring her devastated house and garden Ilya found a quiet and somber peace during her last days before dying in her sleep.{{Fn|6}}
