TalOS was the first to speak as he arrived, “UZ1, Uncle, I have arrived before the event from my understanding.”
To his recent Title Malcador gave the smile of one who bore the title of Uncle, “You have. Ferrus Manus is preparing to advance upon the summit with a cohort of Custodians. When he arrives he shall ascend the Astartes Tower to make his first Oath of Moment before the Tenth Legion.”
“It's so exciting!” UZ1 spoke out of turn due to her excitement, “Today we will witness a Ritual that will occur only nineteen times, and we will be the only members of the Mechanicum to witness it!”
TalOS could not help but turn to the Sigillite as he heard that, “None of the cult have witnessed this before? Even Horus’s?”
Malcador gave a solemn nod as he spoke, “Ultimately this event is a Private affair between Primarch and Legion. I stand here as proxy for the Emperor and you as my invited cohort. The Custodians have attended each of these, being those who educate the participants in their role during the proceedings. Those who stand at my left and right are Remembrancers who have documented each of the Primarch’s Ascension into their proper rule.”
The man and woman both gave silent nods but did not dare to speak. Such a thing was understandable as they had to bear masks upon their mouths, but it was also because the pair did not dare speak out of turn.
“Then as UZ1 is, I too am honored to witness this event as members of the Cult Mechanicus.”
To those words Malcador's eyes narrowed to study TalOS a moment more, “Not as a brother?”
>Well, indeed, as a Brother would be a better reason.
>It is of the Cult, for ultimately I am a Priest of it. I cannot leave it for a moment.
>>Some of you are gonna say, ‘Why not both?’, well that's because this makes it more interesting.
