>>5178911I will always wonder how, when he arrives to Mars, TalOS will theologically justify his clear refusal to eradicate himself of the "weaknesses" of the flesh to others, more than simply saying "Because I'm a genetor".
We keep our emotions, we eat food, we smile, perhaps from time to time we take a nap.
And most damning of all, one day, we might have relations of the flesh with someone Quite the exact opposite of what you'd imagine the pinnacle of techpriesthood to be. Now, all of these things aren't completely unheard of, lest we forget Felicia Tayber was initially kept an enginseer and only after her exemplary performance with the good Commissar did she become a Techpriest.

Just look at Orikan, he had the concentration to maintain atomically delicate runes and spells for centuries! >>5178915>Other?Op you can't just have two equally desirable things we could reasonably do during the timeframe it takes to construct a fortress without expecting us to want both!
>Do a check up on the Pariah what was picked upThis will actually, ironically, likely tire us more as the presence of a null is something of a drain on the soul (though as a Primarch the effect is negligible) but we should visit our lad.

Go visit UZ1 on what she is doing>Start Talos on the path to genuinely becoming not merely teacher, but friend. Time affects her body much quicker than it does us, surely even in the face of growing our empire we can spare the time to spend with her before it is too late? yes this is a blatant request to try and have Talos slowly earn UZ1's ticking mechanical heart in the future, small steps of course. Fulgrim had multiple wives, we only want one
