The Order is stationed on the temperate garden world of Lycia. The local populace are well-educated folk who place a high priority on philosophy, art, and politics. They are also horrible at fighting and their planet has an issue with corruption, hence why the order was established. The sisters don't really interact with the local government, as in their view, the Sisters Militant are called to the holy arts of war, not politics. The only function of politicians is to ensure they have enough fuel and ammunition to shield the Emperor's people and spread the Emperor's word.

Culturally, the sisters are similar to Spartans (hence the no retreat, no surrender mentality). When they aren't actively fighting, they're training or engaging in contests to test their physical and mental fitness against one another. Peculiarly, the sisters also regularly engage in a form of ritual scarification meant to help focus their faith. It is whispered that whatever corruption has taken hold on the planet has also affected the sisters in some way. Although no heretics have ever been officially found amongst their number, they seem to be even more wary than usual of sin within their ranks, and have an unusually high rate of lethal training accidents (which also doesn't help their endangered status).
