It was hard fought for he might have been the only truly lucky Knight. With every Squig killed he counted another Knight for its trouble. Even the ranged focus Knights had to charge forward lest they allow the Xenos to gain any foothold against their Skitarii fellows.
The last of the Gargantuan Squiggoths roared as it stood upon two Knights. Their warriors were torn from their saddles and ripped asunder by the powerful jaws of the beast. So as the Gods of both the Mechanicus and the Orks fought, Fredric charged at the remaining Squigs with a fury unlike any other.
The creature that he was charging looked at him with a fury in its eyes and began to charge as well. But ultimately flesh was failing it as it began to stumble on the way. Such stumbles gave the Prince enough of a chance to rout about the creature and run across it a massive scar across its back.
Even with such a strike it did not back down and flung its tail around to strike at the Prince. Maybe if his Knight was not injured the Prince would have tried to dodge it but instead ne pointed his Gatling Cannon down and parried the attack at the cost of his remaining weapon to commit ranged attacks with.
It was well worth the cost as he quickly brought over and drove into the creature’s back a devastating strike. Memories of his forefather’s approval went into his mind as Fredic destroyed not only the Squig but all the others that were riding it with a single strike.
It was then that he raised his eyes, seeing the massacre of what were a dozen of Knights. Gone was his cohort of twenty instead the Prince had to his name only seven of his strongest warriors with him. None were unscathed as they all participated with the slaughter of the Gargantuan Squiggoths.
It was then that light covered the sky and they all bore witness to a massive explosion coming from behind the lines of the Skitarii. The Knights diverted his eyes as even their ocular systems would have been fried lest they bore witness to what had happened. When they finally did, they bore witness to the remains of what was the Titan that was assisting them.
It was then that the earth shook and they were engulfed by the shadow of the foul idol. Indeed it had lost one of its cannons but the massive construct still stood defiant over the army of Skitarii that were about to be overrun by the Orks that it brought with it.
It was suicide, but if they did not fight it now this Gargant would be let loose upon the world.
