===Notable Locations=== *'''Cathedral of The Wurms:''' The Wurms are home to what is almost assuredly the second longest cathedral in the Imperium. Carved out of the peaks of the mountain range, the '''Cathedral of The Wurms''' rears up to 6 kilometres above sea level and is 18 kilometres long, with more than 700 shrines dedicated to the saints of every major world within the Victorum Sector. A relic of each saint is ensconced in a dedicated shrine, each reflecting the unique culture of the planet or region they originate from, and the Sector Synod has declared visiting the stations of the cathedral a pilgrimage in its own right, spiritually equivalent to worshiping on the worlds of the saints themselves. From the cathedral, Arch-Deacon Yeonsgate balances countless ledgers and accounts to ensure that every individual church and planet-bound hierarch receives their cut of the never-ending flow of tithes and donations that flow along the Path of the Wurms. *'''Knightsgrave Command:''' Once known as the Knightsgrave Schola, '''Knightsgrave Command''' became the general headquarters of the Knights of Avalon in the mid-300s.M38. Originally a training center for the Knights, it grew to become their largest precinct command as the difficulties of enforcing the law in Jaranoct's vast sprawl became clearer and more resources were drawn into the maze of hivewarrens beneath the surface of the hive. Eventually, given the near-permanent presence of the highest levels of Knight command, Knightsgrave became the permanent headquarters for the Knights of Avalon and the site of their largest training complex. Lord Commander Sir Davin Leonine spends as little time at Knightsgrave as he can, knowing that any time he spends away from the court of Gildwynn is an opportunity for enemies of the Knights to undercut their resources and influence. *'''Jaraville:''' Perched over a great shaft plunging into the depths of the earth, this cluster of hive blades serves as the heart of Jaranoct. Here, the movers and shakers of Jaranoct gather daily to set quotas, dispute laws, and ensure the demands of the Imperium are met. Merchant lords, guild nobles, and inky bureaucrats decide the life and death of thousands in the shadow of the original minehead from which Jaranoct sprouted, proof that the more things change, the more they stay the same. *'''The House of The Hole:''' A particularly dank and dismal den of the underhive, '''The House of The Hole''' has managed to evade the purging fires of the Imperium for millennia. Here, the person/cabal/entity known as "Daktar" sponsors expeditions into Falxian ruins still lying untouched beneath Jaranoct. The lucky survivors are rewarded with a cut of the profits from secret auctions held in the hives above. The recent '''''Incident of the Exsanguinated Blade''''' can be traced back to an artifact originating from one of these auctions, and, not for the first time, the Inquisition has set its sights on the secrets of The House of the Hole.
