Ugh what do. I'm not a ranking officer but I can't just let the ship fall silent, but Alice is Resting, Jackson Emperor knows where, Anna in a comma and Greely is missing too. I need someone with inquisitorial authority to Allow the Captain to answer a Xeno call.
Gary, you're the closest member of the inquisition I have on sight right now. What would you do? Do I tell the captain to establish communications?
>>45007095
ow big is they anyways? them Necrons?

Captain this is Delta, I'm speaking on behalf of interrogator Wellesley... tell them they can proceed.

How to best deal with this. Heresy, but necessary. Emperor, guide me from Your Throne.
>>45007187
> Wada silently hands Gladraw an old Photo with several Ogryns and a Commissar.
>>45007268
Understood. We will arrive at Gospyria within half an hour.
>>45007283
I'm thinking the very same thing myself, padre. Have any ideas?
>>45007283
>Crosses her arms.
Alright that deals with it.
Any word from Jackson or the medical staff on the wounded? Has Anna gone any better? Where the hell is Greely? Why is the room filled with Emperor's Children corpses that have no bullet holes?
Could anyone mind to explain what the warp happenned here?
>>45007309
>Takes the photo and looks it over
Ohh, these your friends? Here take a look at this.
>Reaches into his pocket and passes over a photograph of Gladraw, a woman and a young girl standing side by side.
>>45007350
That would be my work. And... that of a sorceror. She seemed oddly protective of you.
>>45007320
I'm not sure, trooper. We go along with it for now, better than being stranded. But we keep our guard up. Abhor the alien. Don't trust these xenos any further than you have to.
>Jackson is walking down the hallway with several drop troops all with various data slates, papers and maps
>they seem to be talking quickly and quietly about something important
>one reaches for his vox then whispers something to Jackson

If they reported in then their sending over data. Go get it now. Have it analyzed and a report brought to me.
>The drop troops quickly nod and run off down to the medical wing
>>45007375
She?
No shit, she survived Somerius? ALL THOSE CIVILLIANS DIED FOR NOTHING?!
>>45007430
She was very impolite.
>Appears before Amelia.
A little bird has told me about your little... visit to a certain regiment chasing us...
>You get the feeling he's reffering to certain Daemon Trapped in a staff.
>>45007369
> Wada looks at the photograph, before shaking Hands handed it back.
Da Family? Dey gone too?
>>45007458
>MEANWHILE IN THE WARPI do feel it is worth specifying every time, yes
What a naughty bird. I'll roast him on this ornate staff and eat him for dinner.
>>45007450
Fuck me...
>Her back leans against a wall and slowly goes down to the point she's sitting on the floor.
We lost so many people there for nothing...
>>45007430
Well apparently she escaped even before the exterminatus was called. That's what my informants reported anyway. Then she showed up here and helped us. I wouldn't be happy about that if I we're you, she claimed that we are her's to kill and no one else may kill us. It seems she really wants to be our downfall.
>>45007450
If it means anything, she is the nicest Chaos Sorceress I've ever seen.
>>45007467
>takes the photo and puts it in his pocket
Yeah, my wife and daughter. They're gone, but maybe if the Emperor allows we will see our loved ones again eh?

Come on, let's go find someone in command and get our orders

you boys are gonna make me soft
>>45007480
>Despite you hear a disapproval roar coming from the staff, Virmanthras raises his hand to his chest level, signalling a "halt".
No, I have my own birdie in that ship, a simple rune drawn in a daemon incursion before Gospyria. Although I don't doubt Arnathrax would tell me if he had known anything, he just enjoys being an asshole, it's in his nature.
>The Daemon trapped inside the staff roars to this too.
What was the purpose for that, even? We had managed to get them off our backs, now they will chase us again once they know where we're heading...
Alright.......it MIGHT be working now, I'll be willing to give it the benefit of the doubt. If anyone needs Alice(For things not related to surgery and implants) I suppose just go ask the Stormtroopers outside her Quarters.
>>45007543darn, who do I ask then?
>>45007498
Ugh. What next horror has destiny prepared for us all? Genestealers pouring out of the Ventilation? Orks infesting the ship? Pirates boarding us?
>>45007530
Yes, they will. I hope. Isn't it wonderful? I would get a bit lonely otherwise. Though, I am not very sure about why the feel so oddly familiar.
>>45007504
The Ogryn nods and gets ready to follow Gladraw.
>>45007512
> Wada looks insulted.
Me not boy. Me 24.
> The Ogryn grins proudly.
>>45007563I would suggest not asking chap.
>>45007565
Fate isn't that cruel Delta. The Emperor isn't going to constantly screw us over. He's gotta give us some breathing room sometime.
>>45007570
You really have forgotten them? Last I know they were the ones helping the Exorcists get you captive... And the ones that gave an end to my mortal form.
>You, and only you, can hear a small smirk coming out of the staff at that last comment.

Keep your head up, Callidus. We are still alive to complete the path the Emperor has set out for us.
>>45007598
That's the spirit lieutenant. Do we have a new assignment yet?
>>45007612
Trooper. You look like you're doing well today. Have the shakes started again?

Attention, we are preparing to enter orbit over Gospyria.
>>45007598
Not for me. Everytime I reach happiness somehow I get stabbed on my back by destiny.
I find a girlfriend? Omicron dies.
I spend time with her? A planet gets an Exterminatus that same day.
I go to visit her home? A mook steals jewels and wine from there.
>>45007625
No Sir, but I'm only coming off the combat stimms from the attack so give it time. Anything we can do to help sir?

Damn right, father. Guess we'll just bide our time till the situation improves...

You know, now that you mention it, I kinda remember something but... oh, who does care about them? The way you describe them, they were pretty huge assholes. All the more reasons to personally pile their heads, am I wrong?
>Thick boots echo along the metal hallway as he paces through the ship, arms folded neatly behind
>>45007695We have a Commissar again? OH BOY. THINGS JUST GOT INTERESTING.
You a new guy or......Rogan maybe?
>>45007693
Hmph. I won't deny it, you have spirit and hunger for battle, but this reaction came too early, we could have used some privacy to get a bigger advantadge.
We may have to speed the process once we're in Beshk now, forget being nice to the contact we just need a book of his, either if he's willing to give it or not.
>>45007648
>appears from behind a barrel
If it helps, there was a small upside to those events... Rogan made some kind of amulets before he... Left. They are still in his room and they have names on them! Of course, they might be heresy...
>>45007695ah, shit. Now I gotta start hiding stuff better

Well I'll be. He sure came aboard without much fanfare. That's a good sign.

Pray, but that's a constant. I haven't been here long enough to know what's most in need of help.

It is simple... "father". Those inquisition muppets love to put their nose in anyone else business, don't they? And pick up fights with everything and everyone. Now there is a one in three chances that these particular muppets are warp-bent on xeno hunting... and that means they could, theoretically, come up against Eldar. I wanna follow them anyway, just to be sure no one tries anything with my toys, but wouldn't they be bonus points if they actually manage to stumble upon a nest of filthy knife-eared bastards?

Good, we'll play the game of the Vulture, we'll safely let them charge against any possible Eldar encounter from affar before descending to get our hands into the remains of our prey.
I'm proud of you Amelia, you're learning quickly to play the way of the deciever.
