>>5620543>Write-In: Speak in Defense of the Psykers but support Yesugei and the Stormseers on regulation and disciplineYesugai, speaking on Khan's behalf, spoke of how the White Scars Stormseers avoided "sorcery", refusing to listen to spirits or any strange tomes and scrolls, and preferring the simple uses of the warp like Pyromancy, Telekenesis, Electromancy rather than Divination or Spiritualism. This is opposed to Magnus open desire to just have raw unrestricted and free investigation of the warp and the use of spirits.
Furthermore unlike the Thousand Sons who eschew the Adminstratums psykers and the warnings of the navigators and astropaths, we embrace them and treat them as advisor and equal. Our Lanterns of Charon are under the direct or indirect command of Malcador and the Psykana, and we heed their advice well.
If Leman Russ is aware that both we and the Khan (who he is on good terms with) advocate for control and safety, it might sway him to our side, which would be an enormous help to overcome Mortarion. In fact such discipline is also echo'd in a way amongst the Space Wolves too. Magnus can't even call us a hypocrite because we use both psykers and nulls and in both cases they are under the strict supervision and regulation of Malcador. Yes, it might slow them down some, but it would not cripple them unlike banning pyskers outright would and in the long run it would assure his other brothers that the best psykers in the Galaxy, Malcador and the Emperor, are watching over them.
