TalOS shook his head and began cleaning up as his experiment came out to be another success. It was a simple piece of research that TalOS picked up but it was one that he was now driven to discover. It was a simple hunch he had when TalOS was walking through the hall of the Blackstone Fortress and noticed the ever moving Psi-Sensors that he kept upon his person and throughout the facility.
While he hated seeing it, the Primarch could not help but notice the difference between Psi-Candles that were occupied and those that were not. How that subtle difference was a constant that he began to notice at all levels of the Fortress.
As TalOS daydreamed he heard a subtle knocking from the door. TalOS gave a small command through the Noosphere to the Steel Warden who was standing by to answer the door as he began placing the blessed soul he had contained into a suspension field.
+It is Astartes Sargest Kranz of the Twenty Second Company, Squad Eight.+ The Acillian announced as TalOS flipped a switch.
+Allow him in but do not leave yet.+ TalOS responded to his colleague as he confirmed that the workstation was secured.
Upon those words TalOS watched as an Astartes in blackened armor with a prominent red stripe upon the helm walked into the room. The Primarch quickly scanned the Astartes with both his personal systems as well as the Astartes’s own Power Armor. He found no discrepancies between the two as well as confirming that the Machine Spirit was not subverted.
TalOS then referenced the list and confirmed his station as well as capabilities before speaking in Binaric, +Welcome to my study, Kranz of House Mahler. Come and take a seat I will have a Servitor serve us B3-3R.+
+Thank you Father.+ He answered with a sternness within his voice before removing the helm from his face to reveal a chiseled Jermanite.
Just as he said, TalOS got out a nearby chair for both himself and another for his son. Both were placed next to a table as a Servitor from a backroom began approaching with a kag of TalOS’s optimal batch of product.
TalOS allowed himself a moment of relaxation as he filled a pair of artisan made mugs between the two of them. TalOS took a sip as well as his son, the two taking the moment to let the drink settle in before they got to business.
