Order of the Winter Sun
From Warhammer - The Old World - Lexicanum
The Order of the Winter Sun is a Knightly Order of Kislev which follows the war goddess Myrmidia. [1a]
History
The order was founded some years after the Crusades when Knights of Order of the Blazing Sun travelled northwards, pausing in Kislev before riding to their doom in Troll Country. [1a]
They now protect the temple to Myrmidia in the city of Kislev and a frieze of solid ice in the heart of the same temple commemorates this noble sacrifice. It has become customary for warriors heading north to take a chip of ice from this frieze for luck, thankfully, the ice grows back moments later. [1a]
