This is not a vote proposal. This is just me inspired by the recent Germanic revelation and wanting to write-fag a bit. I also believe that the Astartes option isn't likely to be picked at this rate, so I thought I'd at least give a chance for them to shine and maybe if what I right is good in the eyes of fellow anons and QM it might be something that happens.

Talos and Vadar walked away from the mess hall, the sun setting on the eve of the Ork War. Both of them paused, seeing large gathering far off. To a mortal, even a skitarii, it would be difficult to make out and so far as to be silent. But to an Astartes and Primarch, they could see clearly the Astartes gathering around a platform on an open field.
“What are they doing?” Talos asked to Vadar.
Even as Vadar made effort to seem without emotion, the Arch Dominus eye was able to see the faintest trace astonishment in the legion master’s bionic optics. “It is... a Jermanic War Ritual.”
“Jeramnic?” inquired the Arch Dominus, “That is tribe my sons hail from Terra?”
The Astartes nodded “Word spreads among my brothers. Where all others, even the Emperor, had shunned our ancient heritage, something to be buried and forgotten, yet you have praised our ancestors.” Talos thought of this. He had known his sons had once been called: ‘Technobarbarians’. The Arch Dominus was certain this was not the name they would have given themselves.
The Legionmaster spoke up “There is reason we hide our passions, why we do not indulge in drink with Wolfen Venrika. It reminds us too much of what we have lost. Now, my brothers believe they may again remember the old ways.” Again, Vadar tried to speak without betraying emotion whatsoever, but beneath the words Talos could not ignore the faintest hint of loss.
This thought was interrupted a soft thudding sound, barely a rhythmic whisper, that grew louder and louder, until the Arch Dominus recognized what it was: the beating of drums.
