"inquisitor it seams i must ask for a new plasma pistol after this mision again" as tempestus spoke he slowely limped towards the inquisitor

"I am just glad that you are alive, we can always get new weapons, but getting a Watchman is far harder!" The Inquisitor joked and led the group West-wards, the Chaplain next to him. "Stevanus, I think we need to talk... With the whole squad about the future of this Kill-Team and regards my connections with the Eldar. If you cannot trust me, then I cannot demand you to trust me." Inquisitor Krauz said as he walked through the hallway.

"Save your words for when we leave this place Inquisitor" said Stevanus in calm tone as they were walking towards the thunderhawks...

Krauz nodded and without further disturbance they eventually reached the 2 Thunderhawks, Krauz heading to the guards outside of his Thunderhawk. "Iam going to fly with the Deathwatch back, we will meet on-board of the Hammer of Faith. The Inquisitoral Storm Troopers saluted and agreed, heaidng back into the Thunderhawk, it taking it's leave after Krauz sitting down on one of the benches, placing his hammer on his lap.

Just now he noticed Axion on the bench on the opposite side.

Noctis climbed aboard the Thunderhawk behind the Inquisitor, taking a seat opposite him and dropping his head. He glanced up to to Krauz, then back down to the floor.

Shin Zhu got into the Thunderhawk and sat himself down nearest to the pilots, removing himself somewhat from the others. He then closed his eyes and began to reflect on the fight between him and Ahriman earlier as the team, all now inside, awaited extraction.

Tsu'had leans heavily on the Apothecary as they enter the Thunderhawk, choosing an empty seat and sitting down wearily. He examines the condition of his brothers, noticing that he sustained the most damage, he ponders his future in the Deathwatch.

"Ah I forgot about axion" as tempestus spoke he laughed "wouldnt let me chase ahirman due to my wounds had to knock him out" as he spoke he woke the marine with his psychic power

Phase #5 - Extraction

"I know my words do not soothe your soul, Noctis, but you must not fall into despair. You gave a promise and you held it, you protected the Journals and Ahriman doesn't get his filthy hands on it, as I said there is a good reason it is a whole book." Krauz knew exactly how Noctis felt as he hates breaking and failing in promises. Then he nodded towards Tempestus, the issue being one of the smaller ones he had to address at this point.

The Thunderhawk started slowly to lift off.

"Before everyone gets into treatment and acquires new equipment I want to clear up the cloud of confusion. We are the Ordo Xenos, supposed to not suffer the alien to live, but that does not apply all the time." Krauz took a deep breath, leaning back.

"We are the Ordo Xenos to learn all we can, to turn the chains of events to our good, similar like the Eldar use the Orks to fight their fights for them, so did I ally with some of the Eldar who understand that we, the Imperium of Mankind, seek to survive and fight whatever threatens us. The Eldar goals are different of ours and so as an Acolyte under my Master, also a Lord Inquisitor like Iam today, that you do not have to fight blindly every Xenos. No.... You have to study them, understand their motives, their goals, their targets. The Tyranids are obvious, devouring. The Orks, seeking the biggest fights. But the Eldar?" Krauz laughed to himself.

"It is like with humans, everyone can have own motives, own goals, own visions. And Taldeer, the farseer we fought for today, she fights against what could eliminate life for all time. She fights the Necrons and I learned much from her, also she is aware of the threat of the Tyranids but it seems another farseer is focusing on them, also from Craftworld Ulthwe, I believe her name was Idranel... Anyway, I tell you of this as I need you to trust me and I need to trust you, and we can only trust eachother when we all play with open cards."

The Inquisitor denied any interruption and continued. "My methods may be questionable to individuals new to the Inquisiton, but I do not fear to go into the extremes, just like Kryptman is doing anything to stop the Tyranids, so I do anything I can to stop the Xenos of being a threat to the Imperium. Why fight the Eldar if they are reasonable enough to have a common goal with us? Look towards the Tau who allied with the Kroot for their so-called 'greater good', why shall we be so blind and narrow to destroy anything, instead of finding a way to destroy the greater threats such as the Heretics and Tyranids? So be clear to me, can you serve under me and follow my every command? I do not ask you as Inquisiotr, but as a fellow man of the Imperium."

"I think that that Is the most sense ive heard from an inquisitor and I will fight for you" as tempestus spoke he laughed but regreted it as he then caughed up more blood
