With that single strike against the Orkish the fighting once again began. In their realization the Orks began charging their ships towards the Blackstone Fortress in view of a better fight. This was likely their worst mistake as the ships got closer and closer; they began to lose the acceleration of their engines and some simply stopped functioning. With another strike the Nova Cannon wrecked a mighty cut through the lines of ships that were approaching it.
With the Orks distracted the fleet that was previously under attack began firing once again at the Orks that were now torn between two targets. It quickly turned from a losing fight into a pincer as the Blackstone Fortress came close enough to begin shooting what were hundreds of smaller guns against the Orkish forces.
TalOS witnessed all of this and felt the craving for more. The Machine Spirit, getting its first taste of blood made it a nearly savage force that only the immense will of TalOS could keep down. It only begged for the blood of the Orks however and did not once desire the destruction of the Mechanicum ships.
Such a move quickly started to cause trouble through the numerous ranks of the Orks that were within the system. With a simple pincer and whatever psychic presence keeping them in the system severed they all quickly began to retreat away from the system. The Tartarus ships, injured and battle worn, could barely give the Orks a bite back as those hundreds of ships began to comprehend the awesome terror that was the Blackstone Fortress.
At the moment of activation the Ork’s ferocity and bloodlust was expelled from them and within fifteen minutes they were forcibly routed. By the half hour the orks had mostly left the system with their tails between their legs and running off into the cosmos likely to plan their revenge against the ravaged Forge World.
After that half hour the Blackstone Fortress orbited towards where the Mitu Collective and the Luna Wolves had fought one another. The Wolves’ ships, which numbered roughly a hundred cruisers, were mostly unscathed as they tried their damndest to claw at the now fleeing Mitu Collective Ships.
It was a glorious day, and while they cannot exact retribution against either forces right now the Treaty of Olympus was something that TalOS was now distributing across all who were within the system.
If the details of this was true they will soon be able to get revenge upon those who attacked them so directly.
