Quoted By:
+Would he not be seen as a lesser to the Magos of Mars.+ Pointed out the Arch Magos of the Navy, +While becoming a Magos after serving in the Enginseers is admirable it is nothing compared to the Techarchilogist and Magi Orders.+
+Do you hold an alternative?+ Asked the Arch Magos of the Legio Titanica.
+Magos F0ST has proven himself capable and willing. He has assisted in the decryption of STCs here on Lucius and has served on the war footing as well.+
TalOS could not help but give a little laugh as he heard those names. It seems no matter what he did he was going to lose one of his direct subordinates when the Crusade continued. Though the Primarch was not oblivious that each of these names spoken did indeed have some form of favor here at home. TalOS was simply seeing their favor coming to the forefront.
He thought to himself for a moment and shook his head. He truly did not have any names he would wish to part with and send to Mars. D3X, one of the Priest he most trusted, never had charisma during their first few years studying the art of the Domini. Today, well, it was a known fact that adding extra bionics and limbs to one person does not correct a lack of humors.
The only other person that TalOS could imagine placing forward was Dux Dominus H3VST. The issue there was TalOS felt he would be a better layson to the Imperium than Mars as he was ultimately a commander. If Mars is as they say, then he is more likely to start building an army on the red planet than make allies with the natives.
If things were true, TalOS was sure he would do that exact thing too. There were too many things that could go wrong.
Ultimately TalOS remembered back to his times with them all and wondered. L4M was a realist who placed forward ideas that were useful and did not tie directly to dogma. He still listened to the hard laws set by the Mechanicum and for that TalOS placed him in charge of research into the Xenos Crystal. He was a good man who was tied down in all the right places and had a good ethic.
For F0ST, TalOS saw him as a more extreme fellow. The complete opposite of the conservative known as Dux Dominus H3VST the Magos would have definitely dug into anything if given the chance. His enthusiasm could lead to trouble, but it's that same drive that can help him make connections with the Martians.
>Place support for F0ST.
>Help L4M get into the position
>Do not give any word.
>Fuck it, Dux Dominus H3VST is going forward.
