Overview
As a Hive World, Lethe Eleven was densely populated before it was captured by Orks. It's main industries were metalwork and shield technologies. During the Imperial month of Umbris the planet's largest moon, Kux, lines up exactly with the system's star, plunging Lethe Eleven into a two week eclipse known as the Darknight. This period was a seasonal holiday when the planet was held by the Imperium.[1a]
History
During the Darknight of 338.M41 Inquisitor Gregor Eisenhorn tracked the notorious xenophile Beldame Sadia to Lethe Eleven. The Beldame was killed by Witchfinder Tantalid in catacombs beneath the derelict church of Saint Kiodrus. Tantalid then threatened to execute Eisenhorn for heresy, but was driven off by the Inquisitor's gun-cutter piloted by Medea Betancore.[1a][1b]
In 999.M41 the Green Kroosade ravaged the Scarus Sector. Lethe Eleven was one of the planets captured by the Orks.[2]
