Sub-sector Aurelia is a sub-sector of the Korianis Sector which lies on the frontier of Imperial space. The inhabited worlds within this sector serve as the primary recruiting ground for the Blood Ravens Space Marine Chapter. In the late 41st Millennium, the entire sub-sector found itself consumed by war as first a splinter fleet of the Tyranid Hive Fleet Leviathan assaulted its inhabited worlds and then the Forces of Chaos sought to lay claim to the sub-sector and transform its former capital planet of Aurelia into a new Daemon World dedicated to the Ruinous Powers.
These threats were countered by the Blood Ravens in the First and Second Aurelian Crusades. Finally, during the campaign known as the Cleansing of Aurelia or the Third Aurelian Crusade, the Blood Ravens were forced to confront the Chaotic corruption that had consumed the leadership of their own Chapter in the person of their Chapter Master and Chief Librarian Azariah Kyras even as the Ordo Hereticus of the Inquisition, led by the Puritan Inquisitor Adrastia and the Imperial Guard forces seconded to her command, sought to unleash an Exterminatus upon the entire sub-sector to end the growing threat it posed to the rest of the Imperium.
