About:
Psykers are sensitive to the warp, which grants them powerful abilities but also makes them extremely vulnerable, as they can succumb to the powers of chaos at any moment. They are either hunted down and killed or, if they are deemed useful enough, turned into tools of the Imperium. This is what happened to Saro: when his powers manifested themselves at a young age, he underwent a rigorous and harrowing sanctioning process and now wields his pyromantic flames in service of the Tyrentine Cabal of the Inquisition.
