With a smile upon his face TalOS reached over and retrieved a box from a Servitor. In doing so he placed it upon the table and slid it towards his brother. As it did so, TalOS flicked his hand in such a way that the container opened up to reveal its contents to his brother.
After all, Perturabo would not have opened it if TalOS had done that. Not with something that would have felt dangerous.
“As for myself, I have had so many wars against those imbued with the Warp that I have had to take drastic measures.” TalOS said with an allusion to what he was, “Before I became a Pariah I was similar to you. It is for that reason I embraced the use of Blackstone to nullify all psychic effects upon my person.”
The Iron Warrior looked skeptically upon the small chunk of metal that TalOS presented. His eyes peering upon it in a deep study. He then began moving the box around from the outside, seeing that it was indeed not trapped in any way.
“What kind of psychic attacks have you defended against?” The Primarch asked looking towards TalOS once again.
“The Mitu were able to tell the future of any who could be seen by the Warp. Some of them might have even had the ability to scry upon me. For that reason I used the Blackstone to deny them this foresight.” TalOS answered as he nodded, “Another is Teleportation. Currently only psykers can move infantry around with their mind. This Blackstone will allow you to prevent this by making a zone of normality they cannot enter within.”
With caution Perturabo closed the box that was before him and gave a cautious nod, “I will see if I can use it in any reasonable capacity.”
“No need to rush it, brother.” TalOS said as he gave a small laugh, “But try to keep it close as much as you can when the time comes. You never know when those from the outside will try their hand.”
At those words Perturabo’s neck snapped towards TalOS. Before Perturabo might have wondered if TalOS was telling the truth when he talked about paranoia, but by giving those words TalOS proved that he was nod joking.
Just like his brother, to a large extent TalOS was right.
