When one called out for the Sigillite and the Emperor it was normally met with administration. Such formations were standard action as the Sigillite’s time was precious. That being said, the Sigillite was also a prolific fellow who indulged a great many people who simply had the gaul to request such an appointment.
When it was a Primarch the situation would be easier. They could easily bring the Sigillite out of his office if they really desired it. Such a desire was rarely had though for so few of them had any good idea of how integral the Sigillite was to the operations of the Imperium.
A Primarch, when they called out to their Father, would get a visit within a few months of such a declaration when the Emperor of Mankind found it able. They all saw this fact was reasonable for even those like Angron had unwittingly respected their Father for the time that he gives them. It was precious for it was indeed in short supply.
That was doubly so in these days when the Emperor was locked within the Imperial Palace.
This was however not circumstances like that. It was not an administrator seeking to gain the wisdom of Malcador or some artist seeking to become a remembrancer. It was not a Primarch who simply wanted their Father’s council because they were soothed by his sheer presence alone.
How one summoned both Malcador and the Emperor of Mankind, to get an appointment within only a day’s notice, was when you spoke with both the ties of loyal blood in addition to being the greatest ally the Imperium has.
The sudden meeting between the Mechanicum and the Imperium was to happen within the Imperial Palace itself. The place, with such a sudden announcement made, was quickly flooded with nobles, bureaucrats, and Priests who came in support of their side’s needs. This was standard for the Mechanicum wished to make their interest well known to those of the Imperium. Subterfuge would be used if one was to do something unseenly, dirty, and in many ways immoral to the people around them.
That was now the aim of Kelbor Hal and TalOS DAV1S. What they wished to gain was the legitimacy that was owed to them for several years of service. In doing so it would solidify the relationship between the Imperium and the Mechanicum by far more than a simple treaty that was signed at the greatest of holy days.
It would become the idea that there was no Imperium without the Mechanicum, and that there is no Mechanicum without the Imperium. Many on both sides would scrutinize the event, in both the current day and in the next era, for it would set precedents that echo through time.
