The Orders of the Sisterhood are one faith in many banners, and where two hold adjacent worlds they may muster as a single Convent. When two or more Sororitas Houses control neighbouring territories, their commanders may declare a combined Convent for a campaign phase: a shared non-aggression across the map, and a shared objective turned against a third faction. In such a muster the Argent Shroud is the silent fast wing — the strike that cannot be answered, ranging ahead of the siblings' anchor to open the ground their gunline and their penitents will hold. The pact binds only at the map level; on the field each Order fights as itself.

Whothe sibling Orders of the Adepta Sororitas (any two mustering as one Convent)
Termsmap-level muster: when two or more Sororitas Houses hold adjacent worlds, they may declare a combined Convent — shared non-aggression and a shared objective against a third faction; the Argent Shroud brings the silent fast wing, the strike that cannot be answered, around the siblings' anchor
Whothe chamber militant of the Ordo Hereticus (requisitions the fast-strike element from this House by reference)
Termssingle-source-of-truth requisition: the Ordo Hereticus may requisition Seraphim and Zephyrim from this House for a phase-gated Inquisitorial strike; the requisition flag and master accord live on the anchor Order (the Martyred Lady) — this House is the home the fast-strike bodies are drawn from, cross-referenced not duplicated; in exchange the Ordo marks a target for the Order to strike, a standing campaign feud with heresy rather than a fixed rival House
The Adepta Sororitas are the chamber militant of the Ordo Hereticus, and this House is the home of the fast-strike element the Inquisition draws upon. For a phase-gated Inquisitorial strike, the Ordo Hereticus may requisition Seraphim and Zephyrim from the Argent Shroud — the bodies are drawn from here by reference, never duplicated, and the standing accord itself is kept by the Convent's anchor Order. In exchange the Ordo marks a target for the Silent Order to strike: a warrant against heresy rather than a feud with any rival House. The Order's enemy in this pact is not a gang across the sector but the witch and the traitor the Inquisition names.
