To those words the Astartes gave a nod, “So you are saying my desire for war is programmed?”
“I have found such aggression and the release of such fundamental to an Astartes’ Life Experience.” TalOS spoke as they returned to his knowledge, “It is easy to guess that your status of being a Psyker also comes from it, am I not correct?”

The Arch Dominus could only give a small shrug, “Because I could and it was something that was on my mind.”
“Are you planning something?” Asked the Astartes with what TalOS could feel was curiosity and horror.

“May I assist you? It will not be much but I have lived a few months among these archives.” The Astarte asked with what TalOS could analyze as a sense of kinship written on the Psyker’s face.
