History

The Glimmerveil Solars (formerly the 194th Solar Expeditionary Force) were assigned in perpetuity, by order of the Emperor of Mankind, (and it is whispered at the direct request of Malcador the Sigilite) to the Pollari – Lyris trade cartel. This gift-assignation was made some 65 standard years prior to the outbreak of the heresy, and marked the moment wherein the Pollari-Lyris cluster (also known as the Glimmerveil) came to be recognized as an independent commonwealth of the Empire of Man.


The Contact of the Glimmerveil
The worlds of the Glimmerveil cluster lie to the galactic north of Terra in the region of the Halo stars. Comprised of 4 major systems and a few outlying stars, it lies slightly above the galactic plain. The worlds of the Glimmerveil survived the age of darkness in relative safety, maintaining inter-system ties, trade and governance long after they had lost communication with the rest of the galaxy. They suffered some incursions from both Orks and the Mitu Confederacy over the long night, but managed to defend themselves through a series of bloody conflicts (in the case of the Orks) and shrewd diplomacy (in the case of the Mitu Conglomerate).
The worlds of the Glimmerveil were first contacted by forces of the 2nd legion, and quickly re-joined the Imperium of Man. The Glimmerveil was a primary marshalling ground for the 1st legions prosecution of war against the Mitu Conglomerate, and it was through this series of campaigns that the Pollari-Lyris trade cartel rose in the estimation of the commanders of the Imperial crusade, and more significantly, the Praetors of the Dark Angels. The cartel made full use of its significant interstellar fleet, as well as its materiel and provisions to support the Imperial effort. Its not-insignificant regiments freighter-household guard (mostly accustomed to insertion style combat from high orbital drops) saw combat alongside the forces of the 1st legion, as well as the 194th Solar Auxilia.
It was following the successful prosecution of the Mitu campaign that the Emperor granted the 194th Solars to the Pollari-Lyris cartel in perpetuity, to form both a regional fighting force, as well as to bring the cartels tactical capabilities into line with the Imperial military organization. At the same time, the Pollari-Lyris cartel was granted the charter of Rogue Trader Militant, and gained a place within the hierarchy of the empire.
