TalOS watched as that piece of paper was not just a simple piece of paper but a package. Unlike many packages that TalOS had received this day this one was wrapped in what appeared to be a burlap cloth and a rough string holding the cloth on whatever was contained within.
There was confusion within TalOS’s mind as he took the container. A simple knot is what kept the container together so TalOS lifted one of the strands to relieve it of its bindings. Cloth went to the side as TalOS peered in to see a small black box.
This box had no features or connections to it. While there are signs of it being made through industrial means one could easily have called it a useless piece of metal. That is, unless one was an initiate of the Mechanicum.
Within seconds TalOS had torn into the device and scanned it through his aegis. Safety affirmed, he started to read over the data that was being presented to him.
“By the Machine God…” TalOS was at a lose for words as he looked into the device’s reaches, “This… This is an identification script!”
“An ID belonging to one of the original Terra Federation Councilors.” Malcador stated as he gave a calm but sincere smile, “I have held onto this piece of code for if I ever had to use it. Though as you’ve ascended to the rank of Fabricator General of the realm which inherits the title of Federation, it will be better in your hands.”
“Uncle.” TalOS could not help but laugh as he studied it more and more, “I cannot express how much this will help me! But, what of the genecode and other failsafes. It will be hard for many Machine Spirits to believe that I am the true owner of this script.”
The old man simply gave a smile as he heard those questions, “You do not need to worry. You share many similarities with the original owner of the Identification.”
As a Primarch TalOS knew in an instant what Malcador was referring to, “Send my Creator my regards.”
“Do so yourself when you see him again.” Malcador told the Primarch as he pointed to the device, “<span class="mu-i">My gift</span> is something I found while examining Mechanicum records. It seems another exploratory fleet had traveled in this direction. They seemed interesting so I would suggest that you travel in their direction when you have the time.”
“Thank you, Malcador.” TalOS exclaimed with a moment of thankfulness.
