>>5179747Kolinaisi put up the Comm.
"Our broadcast is done!" Titus said in a cheerful voice and it breaks your chain of thought. He called you son. This man whom has never truly met you, felt so moved by your acts that he called you that.
But you miss your father who raised you. You miss your mother, who taught you. You miss the old man. You miss your home. Yet you know, their is still so much more to do.
"Titus." You say in the cheery voice you need now, and your honor guard seems to have gathered attention.
"There are still probably nasties on the other side of that. You get goin, get on the fierce, I am gonna call in perturabo to get to work. Ladies, we need to go find Robute." You say and you feel Yana against you. Then Meera. Then Gella. Then Erihapti licking your leg. And you smile as you put your arms around them.
"We will always support you." Yana says and Gella nods. Meera smiles.
"Lets go." You say.
Something he said, this Emperor has lit a fire in you, and you know that- something, your not sure what, is wrong here. Robute needs your help. You don't know why, you don't know how.
But you need to get down there, now. No time for caution. No time for the comms.
"Perturabo, you are up. We'll meet you in the hangar when you are done." You say.
"Something the matter?"
"I can't put my finger on it."
"That sounds irksome."
"Aye." When Titus steps on the ship, the field breaks up, and you carry them, mounting some on Erihapti, who looks proud of what she is doing.
"We have to talk when we are done." You say
"I agree." Perturabo says.
When you get into the hallway, there is something moving. You cannot truly detect it. It <span class="mu-s">IS</span> there, yet it isn't. The girls, being psykers, are on edge because they sense it.
Something is just <span class="mu-s">wrong</span>. It isn't a blank. It isn't a null. Something just, doesn't feel right. And you are chasing it. You can barely sense it through the ships helping with the wifi and your own skill of sensing the mana. It's Mana.
That's it.
It's Mana- it's wrong. It's like living Mana. Sentient Mana. And it moves about, not in this reality, but it traverses through the warp or some other realm.
You can sense it. It's trying to lead you somewhere. Like a trap. Like a trick.
