You see something a bit larger than you, in full armor. The being has two very large weapons, one some sort of shoulder mounted gun and a large scythe it drags behind. It has gauntlets that look vaguely familiar only instead of chainswords are clearly flamers and some sort of heavy duty wrist pistols. It's armor is stark flat white that is in stark contrast to the black judges, that wear, black armor. Why do the evil ones have such hamfisted names?

Your uncle looks, at least stable, as the being raises the weapon and your instincts kick into overdrive as your body flings you and all the girls down, as a black beam passes over head with a strange noise and it hits your cousins knight slowing it down, and also causing the girls to start screamining loudly, along with all the chain breakers that are without face tattoos. A man whom is smaller stands infront of the being.

"BEHOLD. THE HERALD OF YOUR DOOM. SEE THE OPPOSITIONER AND TREMBLE! THEY WHICH GODS FEAR TO SEE AND DAEMONS FLEE! BEHOLD THE BRINGER OF ENTROPY THE OPPOSITIONER HAS ARRIVED AND JUDGED ALL WANTING!" The being says in a reedy whiny voice, and many of the black judges, actually begin to retreat. You lock eyes with the being screaming and it smiles in a maddened delirum.

The weapon. The machine spirit. Something is very, very wrong here. As you look on the battle field you see a lot of panic and terror, even among your honor guard. Perturabo, is off in the distance fighting some awful thing, and roboute and his unit are coming your way.

>> Go and immediately stand against the Oppositioner, this is clearly an anti army unit- it needs to be taken away from your people fast. Tell your honor guard to protect the wounded.

There was and endless ocean, as far as the eye could see. It was different. The weather was warm, the sun- the sun. The sun was bright and powerful. It was painful to Kurze.

Then it rose up out of the water.

A shark, something he only heard about in strange tales of foreign planets that his mother would tell him about, leapt from the water and over the boat, splashing him.

It provided some relief, but sharks are known predators. Was it something to be wary of? This vision was different.

The endless yet calm ocean. The tormenting sun. Not a cloud in the sky.

Yet.

Kurze, against all greater logic jumped in the water.

There was a shark. And shark eat people right? Even one as powerful as him.

As he swam he looked about, the shark was busy, with- whatever sharks do, which was it looked like hunting.

He swam the water was different than in the city. It was cool and refreshing and unpolluted. Even the richest crime baron or syndicate boss couldn't live like this.

what are you doing? he heard and he turned to look at the shark

swimming in here, the sun isn't as painful he thought

be careful The shark, apparently where the noise was coming from

You do not seek to harm me? Kurze responded

Why would I? The shark responded

You are a shark, is it not in your nature to devour and eat those lesser than you?

Not always. And from the looks of it you aren't lesser than me brother

"What?" Kurze said coming to.


"You did the thing again you do when you have a vision of the future or something." Sasha says offering a hand up.

"What did you witness?" The girl asks

"It's more strange than normal. Very surreal." You say

"Well what was it?"

"I got called brother by a shark in an endless ocean." You tell Sasha and he shrugs

"Could be a side effect of the atomics?"

"Perhaps. We have to begin work again sasha."

"Of course boss. But we should probably get you something for emm." Sasha points at a large piece of shrapnel that was in your side.

"I agree, you are a good friend Sasha." You tell him putting your hand on his shoulder.

"Ladies. Watch over the men." You say and Erihapti the ever dutiful sits beside your Uncle Kai.

"WE ARE OUT NUMBERED 10 TO 1!" Meera shouts in a brusque tone that you have only heard when she accidentally rolls out of the bed on to the steel floor.

"Those are better odds than what happens if I ignore that!" You say and focus on the distance, and you feel the electricity around you, and you inhale deeper than you normally would. Something. Is wrong. Machine spirits are in retreat, the very mana itself is more distorted than from the strange 'Khrave' or the 'Necron'. The powerful Machine spirit that is broadcasting is even off.

Then there is the strange baleful noise and 'roar'. You have heard this before. But you don't know how. There is a strange power, and your whole instinct is thrown off kilter. Your very body doesn't want to fight this. It wants to gather up everyone and hide them. You clench your fist and you make a brave face. You do not feel fear. You wish it was that. You wish you knew what it WAS that you felt other than wrong.

You run as hard, maybe harder than you did when you ran to your uncle. Thunder strikes nearby as you strike precisely to knock the thing away far enough that it will only engage you.

It doesn't seem to make noise. Or communicate. And it's herald isn't talking, just grinning madly. You'll handle the craven man later. You speed towards the being. And it charges at you. It matches your speed. It strikes at you with fury and scorn, but so long as it's attacking you it doesn't fire- whatever the nightmare weapon was. The frightening part-

It's hits connect.

It is strong. Your instinct is screaming at you, your very body trying to counter but something very powerful is throwing it off. You calm your mind

You cannot panic and you expand your gaze.

It's next strike you counter, island form 3.

You parry with a form 2 but it counters with form 4.

It knows how you fight.

And it now knows, that you know.

The noise it lets out is as loud and powerful as a whale but a deeper yet mechanical tone. It's utterly wrong and unsettling. There is a blend of man and machine that isn't right. Your instincts, kick in. You right yourself. You will not flee.

You go on the attack.

And- it - gets very defensive.

Hitting it is near impossible, and when you connect, it no sells you like a father playing with a child. That's if you connect with fist.

You should have brought your adriathic, because the EMP weapon does nothing and you think it may be empowering it.

Your swings from the Axe keep it at bay, and you honestly see why Angron would wield two of these. You are mainly acting to keep it away from the troops. Assure the conquest of your brothers. This thing is too strong for them.

--

The fifth laughed a cruel laugh as the mirror was on the table. The others were stunned at this.

It's hateful spiteful laugh physically hurt the others present. Only empowering it more.

"WHAT'S THE MATTER? YOU DON'T WANT THE OLD PIECES? YOU THOUGHT THIS WOULD BE A SECOND CHANCE? NOT FOR YOU! FOR ME"

--

The being in the white armor began to counter, and swing it's strikes frightening concerning all those nearby.

You switch to the daggers. Your attacks are faster, because yuh daggers.

It, whatever it is, now is not as hot.

Apparently speed works better. Whoda known?

And, your daggers seem to be able to cause problems for the armor.

So, finally, it get's on a more defensive- and it makes the noise again. Loud as all get out. It isn't anger though. It even drowns out nearby thunder and lightning that is striking all around you.

Your instincts, you finally get it.

It's reveling in this.

It is enjoying this combat on a primal level. It's noise that it shouted, was of joy and triumph.

It is having fun. Who could blame it? The storm is lovely, and this is a good fight. It's a shame that it is takin ya to school. You must try harder.

You strike fast, and it's not quite able to match you, but it is using it's strange fist weapons. It will occasionally spew a peale of flame towards you, and the coloration- is concerning. It is similar to the fire from the ClF3 weapons and how parts of the peal explodes in the rain makes it seem more likely. Which means that is a huge weakness for it, however a fiery explosion if you try to exploit, and it would be close. However, it isn't. This thing has skills you do not have. Your mostly running on instinct, and as you perform a lock you discover suddenly it's double jointed (just like you- weird) and it throws you.

Maybe you should have sparred more with roboute and perturabo. Actually maybe angron.

You land on your feet and it is coming at you fiercely, it makes the roar out again.

And you feel it.

The armor, the machine spirit, everything is making it harder for you to sense him. Your bodies instincts are screwy, because some how- it is able to jam your natural talent. It's like this thing is making everything around you, including your sense of mana (and probably other senses go wrong.)

One of them.

You need to use everything you got to keep this thing away from the core of the battlefield.

>> Time to think on your feet, adapt and overcome the changing tide like a true surfer.

>> Pour more of yourself into each strike, you can use the powerful mana around you from the fallen black judges and lightning to empower you, stay the course.

>> Use heavier duty weapons on the Armor, hell have your cousin use her gravity weapon.

>> Place a spark charge on their strange gauntlets and move, fast.

Time to think on your feet. As the being strikes out at you, you realize it is enjoying this fight way to much. You begin in earnest to try to remove it's advantage.

You act fast, parry and counter with your daggers and you act to make this fight as punishing on them as possible.

You move and keep it focused on you, it's weapon, that beam of pure darkness and what it caused didn't effect you but it looked like it did something to everyone else. Something like this would probably be something it would try to protect..

You change the pace of the fight almost instantly, in mid swing you grab the beings cannon and wrest it off. Some strange fluid is coming out from the side and it looks like there are multiple layers of whatever armor is on the being. It's wail is again and you mock it with a false wail of your own. And begin to do something, that you aren't quite so sure is safe, but it will work-


You attack the being with it's own weapon like a club. It changes style differently. It doesn't want you damaging the weapon, and keeps going for it, and whatever machine spirit is involved in this thing- is absolutely furious, and you can tell slightly confused by this turn of events.

You have to make a good show with the attacks- which you do- but you know that something like this should not be broke, it is very powerful and breaking it could mean a very devastating explosion.

It's strength is still incredibly great and it's speed still considerable, but it is not able to fight you like it once was and it is now fighting with an element of fear and worry. As you bring the cannon down, from the being escapes a sound.

"This cannot be the only way." And the voice gives you pause as you pull away after your swing.

It is human and you also hear AI. It's both man and machine. It does a simple strike at you, and you block with the cannon.

You know this could be some kind of trick, and most people you have fight have been very chatty, but this one is not. You don't let the time go to waste, and attack with more vigor as your uncle and father instructed time and time again. It blocks distractedly, as if it's listening to something else, then you hear it.

The machine spirit, you can't understand it, it's language is foreign to you- encrypted. The two beings that are one are having an argument.

You re-establish and fight stronger, then you get a flash of instinct and back off- as the being would have dropped a grenade in your bag.

You then hear the high call of Roboute and you see a small fraction of his company come up beside you. And the being then turns to the both of you.

"Tsk." Is all that escapes it's mouth and it makes a click noise and you feel the metal heating up and you instinctually toss the cannon as it explodes.

"I am here brother." Roboute says as his men encircle the being and create a ring for you as you see perturabo run past the both of you and quickly nod before assisting roboute's men in persecution of the invaders.

"It doesn't feel right." Escapes your lips and Roboute looks at you concerned. The being quickly adjusts a few things that have been attached to it, and creates a very large spear with various flare on it. And it begins it's attack, and it is fierce.

"CONTRA FULCO!" Robute shouts and the men move with you as the being, for whatever reason, stays in the circle, as if it has honor. It uses it's spear in a masterful way, and it's hard to track, with whatever is jamming your senses, as electrical signals keep firing. You'd try to drain the mana, but something seems- tainted.

"You aren't your usual self brother!" Roboute says taking a sword and shield stance as he presses forward and the being quickly reverses him and kicks him before turning to you.

"Something is very wrong with it." You say aloud and your voice is shaking. Your body is still rebelling, it's almost like your body is instinctually hiding something from you in order to defend you as you fight. Roboute isn't so effected. Then you hear it.

A small machine spirit voice.

beware the glass that looks darkly.

"ROBOUTE" You say grabbing his sword before he lands what was a near perfect blow. And he looks at you as the being kicks roboute to the side.

"ya." The voice says and goes at you, in the same way you went at it when distracted. It begins pressing against you yet keeping the circle unbroken. Your instincts can no longer hide it. And you take of it's helmet.

Through a mirror.

Darkly.

"ROBOUTE. CALL THE SHIP NOW. DEFEAT THE REST OF THE JUDGES AND GET THE GIRLS AND THE MEN TO THE SHIP." You scream as loud as you have ever

"Ko-"

"JUST DO IT!" You shout and perturabo acts also, the men begin a counter charge and Roboute looks at you. Good. Just so long as he doesn't try to look towards you.

"hahaha" He giggles and snorts.

The army pushes forward as they do as you asked.

"Ya actin a bit like a rubbish man, for someone who is supposed to be da great man." You look down. He's older, no tattoos and more scars, a bit more tan, and the hair a bit more- disheveled. But it's the eyes and the stubborn as a goat attitude.

"Ya talkin a bita junk for a man who got whupped by a younger version of hiself." You say.

"Ah! So ya not just the great man ya the clever man! Well done! ya found it out sooner than I remembered." He says and you quickly punch him in the throat. It's you. The scarification is different, but at the base the skin an birthmarks are the same as yours with some flourish or intentional additions. Your medical knowledge. It's all there. It's you. Older. But you.

"I did that too. This gunna be ya too." He says. Your instincts are urging you to either silence or kill him.

"Ahhh ya instincts the thing ya brothers most horrified of! Ya deciding if ya should silence or kill me! I am livin longer than when I did this before! I saw my face, thought it was a trick or a trap, slit the throat with my daggas on Calmona. And that time I didn't have tattoos, nor did the one I kill. Ya waaaaaaaaay differn. We speak simila, but ya far off." He says and Erihapti comes up and whines next to you.

"Ah and ya have a pet!" He says. Your instincts are hurting.

"Ya see, I know how to jam my own senses and do things, ya will too. I know I get to die. It's better this way. We consistant. Every time we start out with such promise then we go lookin down in that crypt and actually succeed where all have fail, problem is we get lost in time. We write notes, try to change the future, we then leave notes because we realize we kill our future selves. The when we master time travel, we pick around the same age, though look at you! Already stole a few ships anjya meet a few bruddah! My hard work in doin some stuff musta paid off somewhere." He says. The burning headache. The "Icepick pattern cluster event headache" as the medical text book calls what you have, is no longer just in your head but it's your whole body.

"OH So the headache is startin! Wowza! I musta be the longest lastin olda me there has even been! What they call ya lad? Mine is Malalortius Gunnerson. I have a few other titles, 'The Feared'. 'The Wild.' Still the only one to beat the shit outta Russ. Sanguinius had me dead to rights though. How bad does it hurt eleventh? I aint even jammin ya senses anymore but I know when i was in pain an that be the pain face." He says in a happy tone. You concentrate. Your senses aren't jammed anymore. Pain is just electrical signals, and you are a master of human anatomy and biology- and you can manipulate electricty. You carefully, mentally try to invision surgery in your mind and try to rewire some signals mentally by altering some electricty without killing you.

"What gift this now?"

"Medicine." You barely mutter out.

"Medicine?"

"I am also a doctor. I take it you didn't read too much from the pod our father gave us." You say

"Oh our father was terrible. I used the pod as armor. I didn't do any readin from it. Wait- you can talk through your headache? AIyA! I am more terrified of ya now than before!" He says to you and it's taking you greatest of efforts to speak.

"Ya mustv'e had some really good mentors. I got abused by women of the night and my old man was a drunken rogue trader. Still made my job easier when I took up the legion!" He says.

So is this actually an alternate dimension of us, or is it Malal playing tricks using whatever discarded piece he said he was?
Because the dude did just say his name is MALALortius and I don't know if it's just a funny coincidence or a hint.

Its lore accuratish and intentional on all fronts. In the book when Horus speaks to Malcador on the censure of the 2nd amd eleventh primarch he says

"His name was Mal..al.." before malcador proceeds to choke Horus.

Further the eleventh primarch was rumored to be chosen of malal in lore.

Then there is of course the rest of the mystery fluff.

"Alpha!" You shout loudly and he looks upon you and realizes what you plan and he is by your side.

Then men must be brave. I must put on a bold face

"Come out ya half a man and fight me where I stand! I hope ya fight as good as you are ugly!" You call and the beast fumes. It's speed, would be similar to Kolinaisi. Alpha looks at you confused, yet the tide against the Rangda seems to be turning, and he looks puzzled. The men are fighting fiercely and so are the soldiers, that are all massive as tybro, with him.

The being comes at you like a whirlwind as if he were fighting Kolinaisi.

You fight with more discipline than Kolinaisi, He has instinct and fights like the wild wind. This xeno comes at you like a rage drunk buffoon.

As it dodges your salvo of ranged attacks (which you secretly hoped for) it comes in within melee range.

Like an idiot. You grab it's arm and fling it to the ground and switch the axe to the off hand. Alpha pegs it with a few shots and slaps on a detonator as his spear almost freaking magically appears. All this technology gets so confusing. Fortunately good combat is simple.

"Welcome to the Ludus!" You shout at the being.

"I will be your instructor!" You say taking a simple stance and putting on a buckler.

"I HAVE LIVED LONGER THAN YOUR SPECIES." It roars

"Good! We have a lot of bad habits to break in combat then!" You shout and Alpha quietly snickers getting into a position where he can exploit the situation. It charges at you with intent of sidestepping or some, weird, combat manuever. You take a simple stance as it leaps up into the air with a mighty flap of it's wings, that don't seem to function that well, and it comes down. So you take a half step, block with the buckler and hit it in the neck with the back of your axe knocking it down a few yards away, where Alpha, swings a few times with the spear and kicks him back at you. He is trying to learn to be a better fighter, probably.

It Kips up and it cracks it's neck a few times and takes up a stance of it's own.

"I have fought in an arena before whelp!" It says spitting some black fluid on the ground

"Then you won't be running the hell out of here. Good! Let's see how you fight!" You say, and Alpha begins to handle the Rangda around you, but keeps his eye on you. He is worried.

"Come on Alpha the men can handle that." You say and he looks at you like something is dawning upon him and he moves fast to besides you, and he stands taller.

He strikes with the spear, which is very nice and he is able to stand against the being. He is doing- okay, but he can do better. The being on the other hand is giving alpha a rough time. So you tap him on the back and swap spots with him.

"Watch." You say and he steps back.

"What kind of-" He says and you quick strike him and push him back with your free hand, he attempts at a strike, and it's good, but it hits the buckler. And you senses it.

"You fought my brother! " You bark out.

"That brings you joy?" He asks confused.

"He was considerate enough to spare you so that I may see what he learned and how he has improved. I may be the Invictus, but I care about my brothers progress." And the being looks gobsmacked.

"Is yours the one with the tattoos, or the steel gaze? Nevermind. I don't care. Die." It says charging, revealing that Kolinaisi has found another brother of yours. He also has caused this being to fight like a rabid dog. Must have been a fight. His swings are as if he expects you to punish him for every move if he doesn't connect, so he is trying to move to fast to hit. The problem is he isn't. So you slap him away with the axe and hit him with another adriathic shot and it screams as it's wings fall away. It's eyes go wild as it charges Alpha steps in and, shows marked improvement. He stabs and parries, and uses the techniques you showed. Flawlessly. Then adds some flourish.

It's as clear as the sky and you beam.

You step out and tap him and he steps out. You push the being back and demonstrate the form again, but add more.

Alpha then taps you and acts similar, but he adds some of his own soul to it.

The pair of you fight together.

As brothers should.

He stabs the being, pinning it to the ground, and you put a few shots in it.

You look at him and he smiles and nods.

You hug him right there on the battlefield.

"I never thought I'd meet another brother this fast." You say.

"I didn't know if you'd figure it out, but it felt right." He says and there is a something of mystery about him, and the battlefield is clearly in your favor but you nod. You get it, he can hide himself. He has probably met ever other brother so far.

"You are supposed to be a secret." You say and he nods.

"Promise you won't tell?" He says in a sincere and humble tone, not out of sense of being in trouble but in a sense of trust.

"Not unless you need me to." You respond and he nods.

"So you deal with these rangda before?"

"Twice. They don't normally do this. Your men, are handling them well- which is astounding for non astartes. You put up quite the defense." He says.

"Kolinaisi helped, but this was a lot of us working together." You say and he nods.

"You seek not to conquer, but you want this planet to unify it"

"I want us unified and strong, I don't need to conquer to do that. After this battle, I will make sure our planet functions as a whole for this reason, after I throw of the yoke of slavery when I see it." You say and he gives an appraising look.

"Father will ask you to conquer the stars, be ready for it." He tells you.

"He didn't want me to know that I assume."

"No, but I'd rather you know what you are getting into, and maybe you can prepare the planet faster." He says firing at a nearby Rangda with a very nice looking gun.

We got to a war to finish.

The rubbish man! He may have ya blood but he more a tumor to operate on! Looking at him is hard to bear and it's a psychic assault. Why is he here? What purpose?

Wait- The armor. It is a mighty machine spirit. You can maybe learn a bit from it, if you get him talkin.

"So did ya find the time travelin man an warn our father of the future or did ya just get spun up an lost in ya own fate?" You say and he looks confused and shocked.

"Oh, and I aint so sure about da bein the bad one. Ma on the otherhand threw us inta the warp! What kinda woman loves like that?!" You shout and he looks stunned.
--

The old man fell to his knees.

He looked up at his tasks as he grasped his head.

"YA HAVE TO BE KIDDIN ME!" He screamed.

He could see it. He didn't know how, but he could see it. Kolinaisi and a dark mirror. Almost all like him had a psychic talent, some stranger than others. But the remote viewing was always painful he looked at the device measuring his time left.

The number kept getting lower, but the tasks, were thankfully almost done. It was a race for him to survive at least long enough to get this right.

At the very least Kolinaisi would be able to take upon this mantle.

__


You- you are trying to speak to me. Why? I have done nothing to you? I seek no harm even the machine spirit seems, traumatized lightning cracks around you.

"What maddness? Time traveler? Mother? "

You shout out angrily and kick his boot.

"YOU DIDN'T EVEN LOOK AT YOUR POD! YOU WASTE! YA RUBBISH MAN! YOU DON'T NOT SQUAT! MY SHOAL STOAT'S LUNCH KNOWS MORE THAN YOU BY AN ORDER OF MAGNITUDE!" And what comes out sounds similar to the noise that was being made earlier. And he looks at you horrified.

"You- didn't even read the death journal and you learned that..." And your instincts feel weird. What did you just do?

You- You spoke to it! You- You know it!

"WHY ARE YOU HERE?" You roar. And you see UR slowly rise, and you see a few of the suits sort of- act odd. You don't focus on it though.

" It is what we do! On the eighth birthday! We slay our older self! Every time! We seek the crypt, we get time lost, and we jump around and learn. Then we fight whatever version on the eigth "

"DO YOU EVEN WARN FATHER?! YOU CAN TRAVEL THROUGH TIME! YOU CAN TELL HIM THE FUTURE! TELL ME FUTURE TRASH WHAT DID YOU SELFISHLY LEARN AND NEGLECT TO TELL YA BROTHERS? DID YA EVEN TRY?! DO YOU EVEN COMMUNE WITH THE SPIRIT IN YA SOUL?" It's just coming out and you can barely tell why. You have never been so angry in your life, and it's like the weather around you is echoing your attitude.

>>5360757
No! None of them ever did! None of them listened to the gift they had. You are the first, You listen! You can hear us! You actually listened! HA HA! There is a chance! The machine soul from yer erstwhile future version says

"My what?" He just looks confused.

"Do you think the machine spirits just do what you want for no reason?! That they do not have motive? Do you even understand Mana?"

"Look kid- I can tell you about the future, but you just sound like an idiot." He says.

--


"What- Brother." Perturabo turns to you as you continue the defense in what seems like a hurricane of electricty that is just forming

"What?" You respond and then you hear it. It was just like the noise from earlier. Not human. Not beast. Not machine. All. And your gun has an overcharge again! You and perturabo both fire rounds rapidly.

"It's like it has a mind of it's own!" Perturabo says eliminiating the nearby large walker.

"That's the second time it has done that!" You say.

"It has to be related to that noise." Perturabo deduces, and he is right. It's the only logical conclusion. But why?

--

"Idiot." You say.

"Is it idiotic to have compassion? Is it smarter to follow a tradition that demands you go to your death? Is it idiotic to tell someone who can do something about what you are? Cause ya makin a strong case that ya the chief of da idiot tribe." You say.

oh no. You don't know yet.

"Well, for all ya wisdom ya don't know. Whatever the spirit or thing you say is- it puts us on a clock. Every other primarch- our brothers? Effectively immortal. Especially Vulkan. You? Ha. The flame that burns twice as bright- last half as long! The oldest of us that ever lived only made it to be 3,000 years old, and that aint much considering a few times, ya brother roboute over there lives to be 20,000 years old! But who knows?! Ya a doctor right? Maybe ya can figure out how to fix it!" He says

That isn't the trick. The trick is being able to hear the machine soul. Hear me noble brother. The mirror reflected brightly. Fate isn't fixed. If you can speak to your soul, you can solve the curse. So far it has been, for every iteration, working at half capacity. You are the first working as you should be. It speaks to you

koli would need to be by his side through the whole process of transfer as to keep him from affecting the ship and any machine spirits, maybe once koli knocks him unconscious he could drug him or work with his machine spirit in locking his armor to keep him from moving and/or limiting is influence on those around him

>>5364136
The Quantum Tachyon Communicator. One of the most absurdly important technologies and powerful devices made by man. Instantaneous communication, anywhere in the universe, be it in the warp or not. So long as you had a sub relay and one of the tiny 'com' radios you could call out and someone who is on the same channel would be able to speak to you without delay, even while being over 10,000 light years away. The devices once, used commonly amongst those who strode the stars became rare, when their parts were discovered to be just as useful for not only creating weapons of war (Tachyons are needed for adriathic weapons to even function properly) but that tachyons are incredibly hard to obtain when the calculations required to capture one in a trap (if you can even build the trap to begin with) require at the bare minimum a hyper genius, a dedicated specialist AI, or the most absurd luck. And luck runs out fast.

The device, after other voices had become attached to it, had become a constant fixture on your person much to the surprise of your companions and Malcador.

Then a voice came over.

Gusto.

Oh.

--

"Explain it to me again. In detail." You say slowly turnin on the comm, paging in Epsilon and the Old Man.

"This time with gusto" You say the code word, that ya explained in case of this strange circumstance.

"What's it matta? Ya gonna kill me anywuh"

"There are ways ta bite it. Some of em aint so nice." You say hopin they on mute.

"When i be a sleepin in da cold void afta the light show- just let ya know that people who say that usually aint nice ones with pets." the older 'you' says.

"Whateva that means." Ya say pacing about him.

"About, from this time- 300 years from now, depending of course, on how quickly dear old da finds ya- after much ambitions and much promise that inspires ye brothers- especially roboute. Wew. Did Roboute care about ya. Roboute and Perturabo.

ANyHoW. Ya fight the rangda with the Second Primarch and The First Primarch. Ya then- find rumor of an old bit of technology, called the Ymga Monolith. Ya go out under it's crypt to find an ancient weapon one that could strengthen ya chapter- solve the riddle of ya gene seed. Ya go in, loose anywhere depending on historical averages 30-100 space marines, usually a good friend or two, and ya grab the thing. Ya leave. And at first- things work! The tide turns against the Rangda, and then the second get's possessed by a Slougth that made a specific cerebral slaver unit for a primarch after getting enough dna sample.

>>5364138

Ya father puts him the black vaults on terra. Ya really don wanna go there. Then, because of the weapon ya used the gene seed flaw not only gets worse- but it's worse in ya presence. So ya try to reverse it. And you are! But it also causes you to be lost in time, not really able to stay in any point in history too long, traveling, never able to get home. But eventually, somethin will call ya to a spot. And ya will get strong as possible just to lose to ya younga self. Like now. Not one of us has ever successfully defeated the younga, and none of us figure it out. I got close though! I managed to do more genetic sequencin on the gene seed than any primarch. Gues we both have a nack for dat." He says spitting

"Oh wat else." You say and he smirks

"Not screwin things up. Like Magnus. Ya see, we go forth and back in time. We get to see the cruel war in the webway, Magnus breakin it tryin to contact father and a million other neat things Calstar. The impossible city. Ya go to the future, see the great bugs. Ya see Roboute in charge. Then you go too far forward. Then ya go back too far then when you get my age, the call happens. And ya find ya need to find and fight ya younger version. Ya see- if I kill ya, I figure, I can be made whole- or maybe take over ya body if I am smart enough, and start over again with no mistakes."

And then a flash in your mind.

"If you can make a heap of all your winnings, and lose it all in a game of pitch and toss, and start over without a breath about your loss." You whisper.

_


The old man smiled

"I KNEW I GAVE GREAT OL RAMI THAT DAMN BOOK OF POETRY TO READ TO HIS GRANDSON RAVI FOR A REASON!"

He shouted out in triumph.

_


The custodes were at a loss. The emperor had a look on his face of recognition, of revelation, and of something else.

"My friends. I do not have generals. I have sons." The Emperor spoke.

-

"What?"

"Poetry. Are ya illiterate as ya are reckless?" You say breathing calmly. Remembering what your father taught you. Your da. What would he say to this man eh? He'd not suffer a fool to speak such, but there is more to it.

"Wha- who the hell are ya?" He asks.

"I am Kolinaisi Kaiko Wahtiri. Ruarua of Something Fierce. Son of Ravi and Tia. Primarch of Humanity. Warchief of De'lormosa, Big Man of the Black. Keeper of Erihapti. Friend of the Motive Force and all machine spirits" with each word you speak he grows more concerned

"Brother I have concerns." Perturabo tells you, and that is a mild way of putting it. The storm is swirling around Kolinaisi, and it looks like several machines had drug themselves to be near Kolinaisi and his voice had multiple times sounded like the noise from earlier- not that he would notice!

"I do too." Meera said looking at both you and Perturabo, then calmly started walking towards him.

"COUSIN!" Gella shouted as Deliah and Yana began doing more work, the honor guard showing it's value in any conflict.

"WHAT IS SHE DOING?" Yana yelled.

"WALKING TOWARDS YOUR BROTHER."

"WHY? BROTHER WILL BE FINE." She shouted back.

"ARE YOU DUMB?! SHE LOVES HIM!" Deliah shouts above the din of battle and you look at Perturabo and he nods.

"I NOW KNOW WHERE KOLINASI GET'S HIS WONDERFUL INTUTITION FROM!" Gella jokes

"AT LEAST I CAN SHOOT AN ADRIATHIC BEAMER WITHOUT SECOND GUESSING!"

"OI!" Deliah shouts and before you walk, you realize, he would want you to fight and stand. In an unspoken agreement the two of you begin to fight together and start to handle the rest of the enemy.

-

"I am a builder of knights and machines! I helped to restore my planet with nature! I have done many deeds for someone with as few years of life as I have- but that is not what is important! For all the things I am, and try to be, number one on that list is to be a good man no matter my circumstances. And from how you act- I will be a better father than you were to your sons." You say and you feel Meera's hands clutching on to yours.

It feels, nice. Actually. You calm down from what has come over you. This older you looks truly gobsmacked. You cross your finger and bring out the ship comm.

"Jerah Jero we got a prisoner for pick up. Use most caution ya can." You say.

"You are letting me live?" He asks and Meerah is hugging your side.

"I aint gonna kill ya. Ya gonna answer for what ya did to our father. You lucky. If it was muh da he'd throw ya ass in the black just to be safe." Which causes Meera to snort a little.

His eyes search around curious.

"How ya gonna do that? Ya think I am just gonna sit here?"

"Yeah. You can't communicate with ya own soul. But I can. I talked with your armor, and the great machine spirits of it, I talked to your soul. If ya strong enough to stand, be my guest." You say.

He shouts. He screams. He is unable to stand. His vary armor has fallen about him.

"YA JUST TALKED TO IT AND THEY DOIN THIS?!"

"Ya stupidity makes me wanna cry for everything ya abused. The way ya handled a priceless weapon, your armor and ya own soul- ya think they wouldn't?" You say as you pace around him.

"I CAN JUST MAKE ANOTHER GUN LIKE THAT I GOT ALL THE PLANS FROM EVERYWHERE! I KNOW MORE THAN AN STC!" He says struggling, and you take the notebook from his pocket, that is clearly several weapon plans, designs, stratagems, tactics- it's a treasure trove.

"If ye knew more than an STC ya wouldn't be here." You say as you see something fly down. The armor scatters away from his feet. UR stands up and walks over and holds the older you to the ground and looks at you before nodding.

"Im hitching a ride. I will see you on the ship. Friend." UR says.

A tiny ship with several systems just come down and grab the dirt and ground, and enclose him in a powerful shield before taking off.

"Like the new toy?" Jerah says over the comm

"What the blazes was that?" You ask.

"Something Perturabo showed me. We got ten of them on board. I like ta call em bag ships." And it's appropriate. You look down at Meera and hug her. You pat erihapti. You see the large enemy on the hill approaching your way.

"Epsilon, Mu. Did ya all get that."

"Every word." Epsilon says with a new tone in his voice.

"Ya a right chip off the old block Kappa. Ya'll be fine. Just hurry up over there, I don't have many meds left and I need my doctor. Oh wait you haven't taken ya med exam yet. We need to do that when ya get back too." Mu says

"Ya that'll be right after treatin a certain old man Mu. Epsilon we will be in touch." You say

"I will always be listening Kappa." He says.

You can sense what this large thing is on the horizon as the knights turn to face it. It's their last unit. A desperate last stand.

It's an actual Titan.


--

How do you proceed?


>> Withdraw! Everyone back to the ship, take it out with orbital strikes. No need to waste any lives when you can be pragmatic and solve it here. This is the cleanest victory for Perturabo

>> Infiltrate; Roboute, Perturabo and You advance quickly and capture the Titan. It isn't that hard of a climb. It isn't that far of a run. Also this let's Perturabo have a titan for his planet.

>> Stand. Using weapons that have been strewn around, the armor which is quite considerable, and perturabo's help, create an anti Titan weapon. Take the thing out, letting Perturabo be the hero.

>> Write in: You probably gonna do some sort of hybrid choice of the the three with some neat little thing I didn't think of.

>>5364147
>Everyone off to the ship, go looking for the materials in Olympia that old man will need. We can negotiate with Pert the proper mooka for it later.
>Meanwhile, capture the titan with your brothers. Be sure to negotiate with the machine spirit and mess with the princeps controlling it, while Pert studies it for any weakness and Rob covers both of you.
Gotta go fast.

> Infiltrate; Roboute, Perturabo and You advance quickly and capture the Titan. It isn't that hard of a climb. It isn't that far of a run. Also this let's Perturabo have a titan for his planet.

Once again a tiny bonus. I had to break this up for you guys. Please do not forget to vote for the previous. Furthermore, before I go on vacation there are some posts that will require a bit more participation- this was going to all be in the last chapter (hence why still chapter 13 it's not a mistake) but time got away from me. Things are going to accelerate at a rate of speed even y'all are not quite used to.

If you noticed- certain paths have been locked in.

The probability of one of these things was so fucking astrologically improbable that I just now wrote it because I didn't think it would happen. Well it did. And now I have to look up some extra stupid lore justifcation for this.

"It is real? The dream is possible?!" Constantine Valdor let out among the companions in the room

"He said it? Calastar?! Your vision my liege!" Ra Endymion shouted. The Custodes were in an uproar.

"He said it doesn't end well." One of them spoke

"When we didn't know! Now that we know we stand a chance and can do it differently, forewarned is forearmed." Constantine said controlling his voice and excitement.

The emperor smiled.

"We went early. Fate is not written" The emperor said quietly enough that only a chosen few heard him say.

The Emperor chose his path and words carefully.

"Nos Habere Noctis. We shall help them rebuild." Konrade Kurze said picking up some rubble.

"We acted at night, but we should not act like common thieves. We must act out of justice, but not like maniacs. There is a time for bringing terror. There is a time for horror. There is a time for blood. There is also a time for healing and rebuilding. " He spoke and those around him nodded.

"Your awfully cheerful you old goat." The crone spoke as she stepped on the island.

"Ya awfully bold for someone who learned a few tricks from the man ya callin an old goat" The old man spoke back looking at her as he went over a screen and arranged various things in a machine right next to the entrance of what had become less of a hovel and more of a shed.

"No compassion for your old student?" The crone spoke

"If you mean the time ya just so happen to sleep with me after learning how to do some minor changes of appearance tricks doesn't make ya my student." The Old Man said looking over with a raised eyebrow

"Also ya looked way better at that age without the glamour. Now ya look like some exotic pin up that lonely sailors use" He said

"Your lie is worse. You hide your true appearance to look like an old fool. You can even hide your appearance from Kolinaisi, that is something truly extraordinary, but I have seen your true form. And you hiding it from them is something that is shameful on it's own." She said in a tone of sadness and the old man snorted and turned to her.

"People take me less seriously."

"They do not. You would be glorious"

"I'd be a strumpet that women like you would fight over and men would aim to cut that face. Nah. I choose the face of an elder version of myself. Wizened." The old man spoke

"You choose that because you don't feel yourself that wise. You have doubts." The crone spoke and the old man turned.

"I have lived longer than almost all known life on this planet, which I introduced most of. I have seen the woman you based your beauty off of. I have been gifted with perpetual life, and a perpetual attack on my very life everyday from my own body. Even with how powerful that is, I have learned that I can always learn more- it's never ending. Wisdom isn't a state, it's a long never ending road and I feel like I have faltered. But I shall not again. When the task is done, when Kolinaisi gathers the last material from Olympia, and returns- my curse will be lifted." And he turned. And he dropped the veil.

The Old Man's face and body was renewed. The crone's guise flickered.

"Kailana" The old man, who looked not old but a man in the prime of his life. Statuesque and yet scared. His muscles defined yet not overwhelming, yet not as perfect as the old images in text, and honestly they may have been based of him, had they not had the dark circles from working long hours against sleep. He held her in his large hands that had other imperfections, callouses and scars from working.

>>5364529
"Ya wanna know my worry? The curse. The pain. The constant knowing that any time, I can die due to my own hubris- it has given me perspective that few can understand. I have tried to repent and make amends and I hope that Kolinaisi learns from me and I tried to impart lessons upon ya. I have appeared all across this land, a few heroes at a time, makin sure certain things didn't happen and I was right. I put aside what I did and thought I would be fightan the leviathan to the death. Now things have changed. I have gone my whole life knowing, and now I know that path is gone. I have been given another chance. Am I worthy? Am I worthy of my friends admiration? Am I worthy of how the islanders think of me? Am I good enough to have lain with someone like you in your prime? I have so much doubt- and I must cast it aside. The future I must move forward to requires it. So my dear, why ya here?" The 'old' man said

"I-. I had a vision. One that concerns the islanders. That concerns me and mine."

"What."

"You will have a child named for you. You better get your name right. The child would be hidden from the father, intentionally. Raised and taught here, by you. He would go along to fight along side his family, his large family. He would break the cycle. His Grandfather, once knowing of his existence would search for him. The grandfather would be more powerful than any other man, as he is Ke Akua mana a me ke kanaka ola, the one with many names. Your friend. It was important that the father learned before the grandfather. The great storm comes. The Black turns White. Many die. Yet I see the child something extraordinary. Something that turns the tide. Something that should not happen. You know visions better than any "


"Ya." The old man said in a calm form.

"But did ya see the mother." The old man said with a sigh looking towards the first stars appearing in the sky.

"What?"

"The Mother. The Red Headed sweet, kind, girl that has been with the father every step of the way on this adventure. The girl who as we speak is probably with the father."

"I"

"You didn't. You better not let the father know. I don't want to see him angry. But yeah, the grandfather will be over the fuckin moon. You asked for this. I don't know how- I don't know where you reached. It wasn't one of the dark ones I taught you better than that. It wasn't the hidden one because ya aint stupid."

"One who shined. Brighter than any light. I wanted my line to last. It told me to just send the girls, and keep Meera behind in the village that night they went over. It told me to gift Meera the candali plants fruit, and one vial of a tincture made to very specific ingredients and inform her that it was to put on her lips if she was chapped in space ." The Crone said and the old man let go and sighed and let out a harsh breath.

>>5364531

"Ya fuckin made a love potion."

"No. Honestly it wasn't, it was very strange, it would kill a lot of things, and honestly if anything the Candali fruit does that job by exciting most women who eat it-" and the old man looked upon her.

"It does something else to- and you know the statistics of the children born of it. Especially if the child is with one of the islanders who lived on the black." The old man said and the crone looked worried.

"We have had them before- they live on the island with the others of their kind it's a -"

"Ya. You do. But tell me- how do you think Meera will survive. Tell me. Give me something. Anything. You may have more knowledge in this than me- so tell me. Everything. Give me hope for a chance, that you did not offer up a sacrifice for a chance at a glorious lineage."

"Kolinaisi is a gifted surgeon"

"HA!" The old man barked out and the Crone thought carefully and looked upon the old man.

"I understand now. What about the man who taught him." She spoke and The old man's visage instantly returned to the old. The age on his face and the look on his face severe now.

"You put this on me?"

"Would have anyone else do this?"

"Yeah. Whomever the golden bloke who told you to do this nonsense. He needs to be on the operating table. Whomever cast the sentence should fuckin carry it out." The Old Man Sneered as the Crone hugged his back.

"You the best old goat for the job." The Crone said.

"I'm the only one for it apparently. You know there is a mokka here. There is a price that will come. " The old man spoke.

"Aye. I know. For all of us"

"What?"

"You think there is just me? There are others, I know this." The Crone spoke.

"Great. A conspiracy of fools."

-
The course of fate has been altered!

The Conspiracy of Fools has replaced the Cabal! What does this mean for the galaxy? Not even Eldrad knows!
-

The Mokka was a heavy toll for the Crone. For her meddling and altering the course of fate, along with her life soon coming to a close what else was required?

Also, she is talking about creating her lineage and shit, but her daughter is Morgana, not Meera, and she said she didn't want to marry her off to Koli because she knew that he should be infertile. Was this more a lie or change of plans?
Is she so old that all witches are related to her anyway, so that's why she could have know old man so long ago, or is it more of "I set up it to happen so I'm claiming it as my own" type of thing?

>>5364730
She is old. Almost all witches are related to her, save Yana and a few others.

She lied. She is really good at lying.

They were mentioned, not visited actually. And don't worry. Koli will be going back home eventually.
-

Kolinaisi stepped forward, and Meera followed.

"Prepare for a full withdraw." You say and your brothers look at you confused and you point at the Titan, which the two knights were squaring up with.

"Cuz can you cover us?" You ask.

"If you thinkin of takin that Titan they gonna have to come up with a whole nother typa name" Arona says.

"They have one. Just two people ever got it. Actually- come to think of it-" Jerah pauses

"Ya'd da last one to steal something like that was a great man." Jerah says and your brothers both seem confused

"You plan to steal it? How will you fit it on the ship?" Roboute asks.

"I don't . I steal it and give it as mokka for perturabo. His planet could use the defensive weapon." You say and Perturabo seems a little bit surprised.

"BOYS YA STILL HAVE TO CAPTURE IT." Arona shouts.

"There's three of us, and two knights. I think if we are careful we have it." You say and Roboute looks impressed and Perturabo seems to be looking like he is doing calculations as he grabs Deliahs' range finder, then looks back to you, then to the range finder.

"It's do-able. We will need the knights to create a distraction, or the ships to help cover. Though that is risky. The thing is over 40m tall. That's quite a climb, even for us." Perturabo says and Roboute also seems to be going over something.

"The amount of work that went into that- their home planet, the resources they must have to leverage." Roboute says.

"We still got to get in first." You say.

"We haven't really trained for this." Roboute says.


"I have." Lancer says.

"Normally this is where you orbitally bombard the hell out of of that thing. We only got one of Arona, and she has the only thing here meant for hunting smaller titans. This is going to be really deadly real fast." Lancer says.

A ship comes down with Rongo on it throwing down ropes as some of the ramshackle 'rescue' team comes down. Honestly, you need to make a unit of this, and not just people who have a steady hand. Another ship comes down.

"Legionares to the ship, I will join you soon!" Roboute says and the men look at him, then the titan. You see a very marvelous salute.

"They think he is going to die." Perturabo says and you have to nudge him. Your honor guard forms on you.

"Girls." You say and they look at you firmly.

"I can't ask you to come, this is so dangerous that I can't spare you"

---

Rare choice-

Did the Honor Guard come anyway, despite Kolinaisi's warnings?

>> Yes they went anyway to provide psyker support

>> No they went to the ship to provide strategic back up, or rather get in fighters to even the odds.

Kolinaisi nodded.

"So brother how do we do this?" Roboute asks

>> Infiltrate- Run up on it fast, they aint expecting people to show up. Climb in and work your way from the inside.

>> Have Perturabo and Roboute flank, entering the side of the Titan. Recite the Hakka. Stand and face the titan and try to master it's machine spirit from a distance.

>> As you approach, attempt to siphon off the power from a distance, use some of the black judge technology to do this.

So I have been doing some research about one of the daemons lieutenants that we are probably going to have to deal with, like the first liar we sebt into the sun, and found something in the canon about the first murder.
Seems to be called Drach'nyen, Echo of the First Murder, End of Empires, which a custodes got the name from an aetheric shrieking in the Master of Mankind, b7t it's most likely it's reputation name, not the true name. Otherwise the Emperor could have just banished it when they fought, instead of getting his ass kicked.
So I still think it has something to do with Cain's myth. If it isn't his name, than maybe envy, since it was the emotion that caused it?

Seven Humans raced towards the Titan and into the history books they did go

Bravely an Eagerly Seven against the Titan without Woe

A mountain of metal and machine set free

four witches and the the primarchs three

Howling storm, iron fort and commander strong

Charging forth no action wrong

The spirit of man on full display

Never once the seven did dismay

The Giant Titan standing high

Not knowing the outcome nigh

Seven Humans raced towards the coming tower

Never doubting humanity's own power

Rising up more than to test there own meddle

Finally solving steel's ancient riddle

Did He know?

His own legions ancient foe?

Did he know the story of the legion eleven

as he stood as one of those seven

How his own sons stood brave

In the same situation grave

Choosing not to flee the titan and time bide

But answer the own tigers song and choose to ride

Standing not in the trenches but to die

But taking the path instead to sky

The path bound by both the seven and eleven in stride

Instead of fear turn to to the strength inside


untitled

A poem by Horus Lupercal

-


"It may see us as insects- but we shall triumph. No room for doubt. No room to hesitate. Brothers, girls, enter it on the flank. I will recite the Haka and take on it's machine spirit." You say. They look at you nod. Meera grabs your arm.

"No. I stand here with you." She says and you nod.

You breath in the air around you. You hadn't noticed it, you had been too busy. The air is thick with mana. It is echoed in the storm and you can feel it all about you. You can also feel the weight and power of the Titan.

It's like carrying the ocean and you can feel it's very approach.

Yet you can sense something else. A cruel and vindictive intelligence, far more than most machine spirits.

Realizing what you have just learned how to do, you figure that you may have to do some very strange actions.

"Meera, try to get lightning to strike at me." You say and she looks at you only slightly confused

"Why?"

"I will use the lightning to empower what I do next. Please be careful." And she nods. The mana almost swells in anticipation.

So you speak the Hakka so the machine god fully understands

Hear me now Titan

Hear the warcry song I sing

Behold the storm song


The power rises around you, and you can sense it- the Titan has noticed it as you shout. Granted, your voice is practically a combination of a roar, thunder, and some sort of machine song- so everyone can hear you especially machines.


I Can Move Mountains

The Sky Heralds My presence

I Will Not Hold Back

You stomp your feet once and clap and lightning and thunder erupts around you as what feels like a gigantic construct of electricity seems to building itself about you. You can't make out a shape it feels more like a shadow to be honest. The titan, now seems entirely focused on you and doesn't seem to notice the five people running at it as you stand at your Haka, however - it recognizes the challenge, and stands. It doesn't freeze. It stands.


This is life and death!

The whirlwind comes for you now

Know what awaits you!


You can sense it! The machine is .. doing actual appropriate hakka response. It is standing still showing that it will not flinch. Yet, there is something more intelligent stirring inside as the storm starts to take a form around you- it seems like-


--

"I KNOW WHAT I BOODY WELL SEE IT'S A FOOKIN SHARK MADE OUT OF LIGHTNING!" The highly modified being in the unconventional armor suit shouted back to the vox.

"NO IT FREAKING STOPPED OF IT'S OWN ACCORD!" He shouted louder

"HOW THE FOOK SHOULD I KNOW IT'S A FREAKIN TITAN IT HASN'T DONE THIS BEFORE! MY WHOLE CREW IS TRYING TO PUSH IT FORWARD BUT THE MACHINE SPIRIT IS JUST FOOKIN STANDIN STILL!"

"I DON'T KNOW I DON'T FOOKIN SPEAK BINARY I AINT A LEAGUER! YA PAID US TO HELP YA CONQUER THIS FOOKIN MUDBALL AND TAKE PRISONERS NOT THIS FOOKIN NONSENSE. IF IT GOES IT GOES IF IT DOESN'T IT DOESN'T! WHAT THEY GONNA DO? WHAT CAN ONE MAN DO AGAINST A FOOKIN TITAN?!"


-

The titan is listening. So you shout louder and bring out more electricity, you can hear Meera saying she has you. You can hear her words of encouragement, and something more. Their is very strong emotions. Powerful ones tied to this, and you can feel it. This is taking a lot out of her. But she is doing it for you.

And you know why.

And now you have to protect her.


I will not back down!

Hear the song of the mana!

See who you approach!

The shape is more prevelant now. The tats are glowing and you can hear the world around you reverberate your words. The titan stands and yet- there is something else. It's as if it's waiting for you to tell it something.


I Kolinasi !

Chosen by the Motive Force!

I fear no titan!

You sing out and you can actually feel the anticipation of the Machine spirit. If the Titan could speak to you- it would, or it's being polite to wait.

I seek not to end you

Nor do I seek to enslave

I want your chains broke

You shout and you release the storm in one powerful burst towards the sky as you bring your hands together one last time taking one step forward.

And a single horn blows in response.

Then come and try. If you can break the chains, then do it. If you can find a better princep- then do so, oh motive force chosen It says in a tone, daring you to charge on it.

It's a solid Hakka back. Laconic, witty, and poignant.

Thanks dude!

As you fight with your brother, you are aware of something.

Something that, you find interesting.

Angron and his people fight exactly like Father.

Not similar.

But exact.

Angron's army, is calm, confident and collected, yet it can shift to a controlled anger. There is no fear among those around him. This would be normal among astartes, but humans, that is something you have only seen him do. Unless he was trying to inspire fear. Here, the army is emotionally grounded.

"Come brother, battle is still to be won." Angron says in a demeanor that is slightly different from what you are used to.

"Concur" You say in a confident tone.

-0-

"Concur." Alpha is a good fighter, and he joining you in battle is a good thing, but you keep an eye on him. His aim is something to notice.

The help from Alpha's men, which are all only bested in height by Tybro You and Alpha, is significant. Apparently this is a smaller incursion- which is good, at least that's what you hear from the radio chatter.

However that means this world is something they are looking out for.

Tybro, seems to have taken to his role of, whatever person in giant walker who runs around doing havoc on the battlefield.

The tide of the battle seems to have turned quickly.

Then you get the call.


"Angron! We dug'er tunnel! It's a bit mad but we took cara ya busines down here and we hafa selfs a weee bit of sitchyation" The leader of the kin unit tells you,

"And what is that?"

"Well we have cleared out this tunnelt but it looks like they have dug abo a dozen or so more! It looks like they were plantan explosives, fortunately fer us it seems we are in the main control tunnel and have started disconnectin them! Bad news is it seems they have a, oh bloody hell!" The comm turns to screaming and cursing like a drunken brawl, but you can make out the jist.

Apparently while they did defuse the explosives, it seems they have to start sealing off the tunnels as it seems they are attached to what may be teleportion devices.

"Yuh. It means I have to back up my talk. I am probably gonna use a whole lot of lightning and power, so be ready." You declare.

You gather up energy from all the machine spirits around you and direct through the weapon, as you have before, letting the storm brew around you, trying summon up as much actual Mana as possible.

You quietly hum the Mana Song, and Meera, actually hums it a little too.

As you feel the mana flow through your body, you actually feel connected to Meera, slightly.

It's very, haunting.

It's like when ya first connected to Morgiana.
Please don't fail, you mean too much to me.

You hear from her.

You feel her strength, and it is waning, This is taking a lot out of her, so you more actively pull the mana to you.

You can feel what hair you have rise from static and emotion, you must be a sight to see now with your tattoos glowin.

What friends are here, help empower me. I shall recover you and take you to my ship after this. You utter quietly and you feel the Mana swell like a tide and come down from up above.

"WHAT IN FOOKIN OMNISAH FOOKIN MARSY SHITE IS THIS?"

-

"Get inside. Get inside now" Perturabo says less 'frantically' and more as a matter of fact. The lightning that has been brewing around Kolinaisi has gotten thicker, and started to change multiple colors. And it seems to be coming from all around. You go in last as the girls go in before you.

The foot entry on this vehicle is a tactical flaw.

It is when Perturabo enters, at least as you see at least three bodies on the ground.

Perturabo motions for you to follow him up to a small little area that has multiple people inside, and they are cowering.

This should be a bit easier than you thought.

-


I am not sure if I am rated to fire such a shot, if you help carry some of the load for me I will be able to do it The machine spirit of the weapon your brother says. It is young, but it is strong.

I shall You say, and you realize you may need to tone down the power, as you are not sure if the titan, will go down in one hit. Per tradition- he would get a shot if you cannot fall him. That- would be a problem. A bigger problem. So you pull in all the storm and channel the mana.

"Meera look at the ground and cover your eyes." You say and she acts immediately.

The smell and the sound. The bright light. Your vision is still messed up it's similar to the shot you fired at the daemon.

The titans whole paint scheme is burnt. Part of it is still molten. Your shot probably ate the shields and most of the titans energy. It looks barely able to stand.

"Systems overcharge" An ancient cogitator says as one man dives for a button and perturabo grabs them.

"Shields depleted. Only available system Energy cannon."

"FIRE THE RUDDY THING."

the horn blows


Oh ho. You almost had me. You expect to fell me in one shot? Bold! Valiant! Die that way And you can sense that the only weapon it has is it's energy beam. If it doesn't kill you, this will probably give Roboute and Perturabo with help from the girls time to take the ship.

>> Full Shield. Use the remaining electricity to up a shield that will last just enough to absorb the beam. It may cause a bit of issues, and you better hope it lasts.

Post soon. Sorry.

As you feel the oncoming blast you realize the reality that:

1. This will hurt.

2. It is more likely you will die than live, and Meera is probably the only thing that is saving you besides the fact you damaged the titan.

You guide the blast using subtle mana manipulation through the black judges circuits.

This kills their machine spirits.

Its a painful scream, but at least they are free. The energy is redirected with help from Meera towards the weapon Perturabo made.

Bright light flashes. You see the titan slumping on fire as the world goes sideways. Pain. The world is pain. There is blood.

Meera falls next to you.

You see some life and light still in her eyes.

You see Erihapti bound over and guard and wail.

Meeras tiny hand grabs yours.

She's bleeding from her eyes. And probably you too.

Your not sure if the comm even works anymore.

You hear no machine spirits.

Then you hear the titan

"WHAT WAS THAT?" Robute screams loudly. There isnt really any call for it, you hear him fine. Save maybe the fact that whatever just hit the titan, with 90% probabilty, just killed its weapons systems and mobility.

You dynamically enter the room, Deliah has decided to act as your reae guard. Which is good. She is an attractive young woman and she has been acting very kind to you. Probably because you have the face of her late husband, initially. Her fondness for you may be more now. You blast at what are clearly somenkind of servitor units and some extremely unsavory looking individials powering a system as a horn goes off.

It sounds different then the last horn.

You take note and walk up the stairs.

Tie. Situational post

You decide that now is not the time to approach the titan, and its more important to fix Meera and may need to do a bit more. You grab Meera. She lets out some breaths and gives you the shaka.

"Kkoli- I cant hear anything. And i cant see much."

The diagnosis is instant. She has a concussion, a broke rib, eye and hearing damage (maybe permanent) she has burns amd cuts on most of her lower body. Blood loss is almost critical. You work with whay little you have to help her. It should stave off the worse.

Time to test the comm "Rho Phi. Can you hear me" you shout.
