Not as good as Repentia, but follows on from it where sister repentia is still looking to die. Over all it's mostly a fight, but with enough character to shine through. For me at least, but my standards in this series is LOW.

"Adamanthea could feel their conviction, their huddled bodies seeming to close in on her, to cling to her like children. She felt a surge of revulsion, her mouth dry as she spoke.
'I am the mother of calamity, an exhausted madwoman unfit to lead you. I shall spend no more lives in pursuit of ending my own.' "

Adamanthea is one mean SoB but against the Tau can you blame her? 😏

Just like the title says.
Guilt and rage fueled Sororitas leads her unit into a carnage filled suicide run against the Tau. Pretty nasty and brutal.
