With those words spoken TalOS decided it was time for him to revert back to the common era. Back before brother killed brother, to a time where they were all in a begrudging cooperation against one another for the stars.
The main issue with being in this form was that time still moved forward. While he sustained himself here whatever soulstuff kept his connection to his body kept TalOS bound to a time stream. If TalOS was to push back time, to set his concious to before these events happened, then he would simply die as the Galaxy had already set forth what was to happen.
“We can only move forward and fight against the tides that threaten the Universe.” Orikan wisely said as he floated next to TalOS, “I have done my part though, for I have seen my future and it is not so deeply involved with these trials of mankind. I, however, know that you will succeed in what you set out to do.”
There was a subtle confusion that came across TalOS as he glanced towards Orikan, “How do you know? We cannot see past the Heresy.”
Orikan, even as a spirit who was immensely smaller than TalOS, gave what TalOS realized was a tempered smile, “When I was still flesh, back before the C’Tan transformed me into my immortal shell, I had told the Necrontyr of their betrayal. This was before I was able to see the future with my own eyes, before I was able to glimpse the waves and tides that flowed. I had known this because it was my intuition. That is the reason I say those words now.”
“I…” It was hard to really comprehend how TalOS felt of those words. Maybe it was because he had spent now a very large part of his life learning under the Necron, or maybe it was as Ancient as the Stars themselves. What mattered was, “I am honored.”
“It is time for us to return. You only have two more decades to prepare for your war to come.” Orikan said as the two of them began drifting back to reality, “Make the most of them.”
Upon those words TalOS fell in a sort of sense back to his body. The journey was long and during it TalOS was still studying the numerous workings of the Universe that he would only remember a shard of.
Ultimately TalOS realized that his time will be short. Only two decades of preparation, to which TalOS will make the most of.
