===Pasiphae=== Their planet is known as Pasiphae and it gives them their name, having been discovered by a ship that had lost sight of the Astronomican spotting a light through the warp that drew them in. On this planet they found both xenos worshiping a Tzeentch Daemon as a Sun God but also a strange relic of older times, maybe a prototype of the Astronomican, though with barely the power to illuminate outside its own system, more or less useless. It is being studied by the Divine Light of Sollex, and part of the reason for their good relations. Pasiphae is a shining jewel of emerald forests and cities that shine like silver and gold, a prized world of exemplary faith and servitude to the Imperium. The planet remains ever lit and has no true night, thanks to the system's main star having captured (or possibly they've always been there) three small white dwarf stars near the end of their life that orbit in a manner so that Pasiphae's dark side always has one of them shining on it. Because of this, the night is not dark, only composed of a soft twilight in comparison to the glorious radiance of its day. To add to this, ancient technological relics can be found in orbit that are composed of vast arrays of mirrors that can allow for sunlight to be beamed as desired. The world is composed of several small continents with seas that seem more like colossal rivers than proper oceans stretching between them. Almost the entire surface of Pasiphae is covered with verdant green forests that are composed of towering trees to create several layers of canopies that can sometimes reach over thousands of meters (particularly around the equator). Urban settlements have built themselves in around these truly behemoth networks trees to provide an almost surreal landscape that sets it apart from other civilized worlds. [[File:KirinGuidingLight.jpg|300px|right|thumb|One of the Kirin used by the Guiding Light]] Despite all this, the true value of Pasiphae lies in the Temple of Divine Radiance, a technological relic that can be likened to a miniature Astronomican, of no use of its own but a source of hope to the Mechanicus and the Sisters alike built upon the world's northern pole like a crown of light. This great relic, and those found in orbit above, are cared for by the Divine Light of Sollex of the Adeptus Mechanicus and guarded under the watchful eyes of the Adeptus Sororitas Order of the Guiding Light. Pasiphae was not always such a blessed place, as the technological relics and the world itself once was tainted by xeno hands that had stolen it from its original human colonists shortly after the 31st Millennium. The world and its enslaved human populace toiled under the hands of their xeno masters until by the will of the God-Emperor the combined forces of the Divine Light of Sollex and the Order of the Guiding Light reclaimed it.
