Following the original immigration to Canticle, the first Threnodites to die became shades that would later be known as the Chorus.{{book ref|tsm|22}} From there, portions of the Chorus were taken to new settlements in specialized jars.{{book ref|tsm|22}} Each Chorus holds the history of those who fled to the planet, and fabricate ships and other objects for those still alive.{{book ref|tsm|15}} Occasionally, one can observe the mist of a new shade drifting from someone who died to the Reliquary,{{book ref|tsm|22}} given that they were not converted into a [[sunheart]].

===Remembering===
Despite being Threnodite [[Cognitive Shadow]]s in origin, The Chorus claim that they are not shades, citing their ability to remember as a significant difference.{{book ref|tsm|22}} This may be a result of the unique Connection properties between groups of Canticlites.
