The chamber they walked into was massive. So massive was it that TalOS knew it could reach the highest point in this entire palace. In the middle of it all was a giant ziggurat that Malcador soon began ascending. TalOS quickly did the same as well as UZ1.
As one would expect of such a large structure there were small and large steps. At each of the large steps stood a Custodian or a Space Marine, TalOS quickly identified who exactly these Space Marines were.
They wore the blackened armor of their Legion, but instead of the distinct red stripe that those who went on Crusade gained they instead sported purple. On their chests they bore an Eye, the Eye of Terra which was also borne upon the staff of Malcador.
His sons did not pay him heed and neither did the Custodians. That was for the best TalOS would admit.
With every step they made the Tech Priest realized the true meaning of what he stepped upon. His eyes glanced on the blocks that had thousands of intricate carvings that he knew was a language previously held by man. Each and everyone of them holds some kind of significance over the eras that man dominated the globe and stars.
They were symbols. Symbols inscribed upon a Ziggurat.
After minutes of travel they came upon the crest of the building, several units within the sky of this chamber and the highest point a man could possibly step upon the planet of Terra safely. In front of TalOS was a throne made of Gold, the Primarch quickly realizing how intricate and powerful this piece of technology was.
But any who called just the chair itself the tool were fools. The Ziggurat, the Symbols, the Chair at the Highest Point; they were all symbols. TalOS could feel the warp coursing through his soul was not the same that traveled through the universe. It was changed, some might describe it as purified, but ultimately this entire structure was changing it.
Whoever sat upon that chair would no longer be a mere mortal to the Warp. With the symbols and honors that were given to it by those of this planet and soon the entire galaxy, they could easily be seen as a God. If enough faith was placed into this structure, they could even become one.
>Accuse them of trying to reach godhood.
>Ask why they would need the power of a God.
>This is not the way, Malcador.
