The Cult of Strife has become the most powerful [[Wych Cult]] of all, largely due to the sublime talents of Her Excellence, [[Lelith Hesperax]]. Not through martial coups or treacherous politicking has the Cult of Strife risen to the apex of power, but through the creed of speed over strength, and the elevation of bloodsport to a high art. Though the Cult of Strife boasts dozens of the best warrior-athletes in the galaxy, Lelith herself is the diamond at the centre of the crown. Her deadly allure draws in hundreds of thousands of spectators every night — each of whom is prepared to pay a high price to the Cult's paymasters for the privilege.{{Fn|1}}
