>XXI viewpoint circa 795
Phi was surprised. She aimed at him, did she?
Lilith shot hit something behind the Primarch, the snivelling hatchlayer was dead.
They stared at each other for a moment, the Primarch with the power axe lowered, she with a powerful autoch bolter, both of them standing at opposite ends. Neither willing speak first. She was stubborn and had sworn to find the beast before him, too bad for her. The Robot Butler Adam was already approaching his fast-healing master to ensure his vitals were adequate.
- “Your late Phi. Thadic want to see you.” she added bluntly. “About your machine blueprint for Primaris Astartes production.”
He nodded without saying anything. He wanted to see her, talk with her.
She took out a small piece of paper from inside her pocket and handed it to him.
- “You're going to need this. I’ve heard. From the Military Guild” she disclosed with a crooked smile.
XXI eyes went wide open, he looked at the paper. It was a sketch of a new kind of tank, a hybrid between a BattleMech and a Warhound. A giant warbeast of rares metal, steel, titanium and chrome alloy. It was called the Warlord (not definitive name). It had finally been approved after 8 months of deliberation.
The Primarch smiled. It was perfect. Perfect!
It was a prototype. A beginning.
Her words echoed in his ears. He remembered everything.
Everything that happened since the beginning. He felt a sudden sense of calmness wash over him. All those terrible events that made him feel lost and alone in space, all the pain, all the suffering, all the agony... it all meant something. Something important. Family.
Phi, still covered in blood turned toward Adam, ordering him to send the signal for a kin team to retrieve the Crystal Dragon body he intended to offer to the Bio-Alchemist Guild of the Hold, for political reason. Favor call for favor. Friendship begin with a first step.
Adam immediately contacted Karak Ankor-Zul after receiving orders from the Primarch. An ironkin team was arriving.
Lilith walked beside Phi, a grim smirk on her face.
-"You look tired on the inside" she said.
- "Yes. I am."
-"Why? Too cold for you, need some help to return to the warm cozy forge?" she taunted.
- "Because my mind is constantly racing, trying to figure out how to get back what was taken from me. We'll build a new army, and together, we will rule the stars. Together, we will conquer the universe. And then, when our enemies come calling once more, they will fear us. And they will tremble before us. We will become legends among the stars.Legends. Yes. That's exactly what we shall be". Phi preached without great success.
- "Cogface,Thadic will be there to greet you, with an iron stick and i 'll help him. Alone with only a Power axe. Like rough challenge? swim in a caldera." she sneered.
- "will you hold my towel? " he teased.
During their return to the Karak on the flying bike, they flighted over another Kindred. Time to meet new people suggested Phi.
