As he watched his brother leave TalOS wondered if his words had a single effect. It would be troublesome if he only comprehended those words after whatever trial he shall face, but it was not the place of TalOS to realize that. All he could do is support the Iron Warrior until that time came.
Perturabo’s tantrum had brought them around the entire Imperial Palace without any care of where they ended up. His purpose, TalOS assumed, was to try and lose the Tech Priest within the labyrinthine chambers that were before him. Though Perturabo failed in losing TalOS it meant that they were at some of the mostly disused corner of the Palace.
TalOS began to walk his way back to UZ1. Through the Noosphere the two of them agreed to meet at the room of Malcador to talk to the old man and do some catch up. TalOS was especially interested on the status of the Null Nobilite as he noticed a number of their rank throughout the palace during his adventure.
It was after several hallways and chambers that TalOS noticed something was off. At the crest of his senses TalOS could feel a powerful soul but it was not one that he had yet tasted. It was one which held itself so tightly that it would not be felt by those within the local area. This translated to one being able to make themselves almost unnoticed to those of conventional senses.
TalOS knew exactly who it was when he bounded the corner and was face to face with someone wearing the armor of his long-removed sons, the Lanterns of Charon.
“Its been a while, brother.” TalOS said as he grew a smile.
Alpharius looked at TalOS with the helm still on, then his eyes glancing at either side of the room to find that no one else was approaching them. With a motion of his hands Alpharius removed the helm.
Just as times before, Alpharius was bald without a single hair upon his head. His eyes were narrow in a way comparable to a snakes. He grew a small smile as he looked upon TalOS with an air of surprise and welcome, “It has, to think that you would find me so easily.”
“The tricks you have used to hide yourself from myself and others in the past no longer work.” TalOS told his brother with a small laugh, “I have changed where you have not.”
“I see…” Alpharius placed his back upon the wall knowing he was going to be talking for atleast a little bit of time.
