TalOS allowed the drink to run its way through his digestive tracks a few more times as he processed all that was in the vintage. TalOS could easily see why his brother in blood enjoyed drink like this so much for each and every drink was like an adventure. If he was not a Priest of the Mechanicum might have ended up being a collector of these fine drinks.
“I might have underestimate such a drink.” TalOS finally admitted as he watched the deep crimson drink swirl, “It would be a simple idea but think of it, Horus, an entire room dedicated to wines from all over the universe. Using all of that information we could detail most of human experience in a single chamber of understanding.”
“Interesting, I have never thought of drinks that way.” Horus admitted as TalOS noticed a shifting of the eyes, “You see TalOS, before I met our Father I held sway over the territories of the Kilkir Gang. When I cut the head off their old leader I quickly rallied those oppressed by his rule and took over territories of both the Kilkir and of the Lupercal gangs. It was the first feast I, with the stocks of the Kilkir leader, that I had my first taste of wine.”
“So you set forth and conquered?” TalOS confirmed as he thought through the words, “How far had you gotten?”
“I had the entire moon under my sway by the fifth year there. You see brother I realized that all this barbarism and war would continue until I personally saw to its end. By both my own and the blade of the Lupercal Gang, we severed so many heads that many began begging for mercy.” Horus finalized with a small laugh, “I realized when a Ganger known as Jaqubo Lorence stood before his palace and begged me for mercy.”
An odd glimmer went over the eyes of Horus as he continued, “I only realized then that I was so full of fury that I neglected to even talk to many who I had slain and the devastation that I had wrecked. I was the terror, an unrelenting force that could not be reasoned with. So, I extended my hand and helped Jaqubo up from the ground and accepted his vassalage.”
“Reason escapes many.” TalOS answered Horus with a small chuckle, “I hypothesis that battle came sparingly after that?”
“That is true. All knew that I would not stop my conquest and many fell in line as if they were always under my rule. Those few who resisted did not survive.” Horus claimed as his eyes began to narrow in remembrance, “It was then that I felt it. Upon the crux of the sixth year I was preparing my conquest of the planet below when I felt our Father’s presence.”
“Felt? Was it a Psychic phenomenon or something else?” TalOS hypothesis with a sense of foreboding.
“It was not dirty like that of psykers but that of blood.” Answered Horus as he gave a large genuine smile, “We had realized quickly that the Warp Storms faded and interstellar travel was
