I haven't read the novels, but she's now effectively the governor of the entire world. even though she's facing a full-blown rebellion, is the situation so dire that she has to go to the most dangerous part of Necromunda to find something?

Normally, if the situation was that dire, she shouldn't have gone to such a horrible area that could make anyone disappear at any time, not to mention filled with the worst creatures in all of Necromunda.


I wonder if she'll be bitten by a ugly malstrain genestealer and mutated into a twisted, horrible monster just like her alway been, then legitimately disqualified from being Governor and quickly executed -- and then anyone suddenly discover that the previous Governor (while he's still technically alive) had a love child with a inquisitor.

Spoiler warning for the entire Aranthian Succession series

She was also only the heir apparent, as Helmawr isn’t quite dead, but in stasis, and in the hands of one Kal Jerico.

She didn't go into Secundus to find anything. She went there to hide. House Aranthus has the full backing of almost every noble house, merchant guild, and clan house, plus has already been given the Imperium's official stamp of approval as new Planetary Governor. They're looking to tie up loose ends and have systematically killed or cowed all but a tiny handful of Helmawr's children (partly due to Haera killing off a huge chunk of them herself a few weeks earlier). Haera managed to met up with one of her siblings in Secundus but is still being chased by all sorts.
