The marine bited his lips under his helmet before speaking. ¨With all due respect brother librarian, i have my own reasons for not....being to fond of her kind, its respect enough that i dont try anything...because some of you seem to aquainted with her and i dont wish to cause any trouble, im not doubting any of you i just ask that you do not seek something i cannot give.¨ ¨I am not unreasonable so i hope you all understand, now if you pardon me.....i need to meditate.¨ Maybe the comment wasent aimed at making the marine mad but he couldnt help it, he had to much grief inside of him and soo he walked away from the group, finding a nice spot being covered under the misterious light of the hall. ¨I do not care what she calls me......yes we are all in this, but being together and being in cooperation because we just got drag into this are very diferent things.¨ Not even looking back as jaccx kept moving. ¨Again i am sorry for loosing the challenge but if anything happens again....i will make sure to amend it...¨ As he walked away, adressing the tribe leader ¨Great one....mind if i take a sit over there?...¨ OOC: danm it you posted to fast i almost missed it sorry.
"Thanks for the offer but I'm going to decline for now." Noctis replied to Tempestus. He then turned to Macha. "Any idea what is eating at him?" He said nodding in Jaccx's direction.
"I would guess a battle that took his brothers and he survived?" Macha shrugged. "Though I do not take it personally as I do not know him. And there is no interest to do so. You might be better off asking even which Craftworld they encountered, he is your brother, I have no right to ask." She stated while the Orichalci started to reply to Stevanus. "At this point I would like to express that even if you win already four challenges, you still have to complete the other ones. That said.... Face your next group challenge. Follow me, Challengers." He stood up and walked down the stairs, each being absorbed by the floor, making not even a sound as he walks. Orichalcos walked down a hallway to the right as a platform emerges as he walks. Macha stood next to Noctis, waiting till he would move to walk at his side.
tempestus satys at the back and makes sure to have his brothers in sight at all times while he then opens a private vox to stevanus "i think i left my helmet up there" as he spoke he took anouther swig and put his flask away
Noctis looked to Macha then gave her a slight pat on the back before proceeding to follow the 'Orichalcos'.
~~ Kronus ~~ Thain, Krauz and Shin Zhu descended with a Thunderhawk between North Vandea and Tyrea. The Thunderhawk landed and embarked the three men. They were met by Gabriel Angelos and a squad of his. Including Tarcain. Krauz bowed infront of the Captain. "Captain Angelos. This is Deathwatch Keeper Shin Zhu and Deathwatch Kill-Marine Thain Greywold." The Blood Raven nodded in acknowledgment. "I have come for two reasons. Number One: I must bring you the news that the young Cassius has deceased in service of the Deathwatch. He had a honorable death and we have recovered his body, we have sent it already to the Omnis Arcanum for gene-seed extraction and proper process of a fallen Blood Raven. Number Two: I heard you fought and captured Farseer Taldeer, I need to talk to her as I suspect her activity in disappearance of my Kill-Team." Angelos nodded and informed his squad, in particular Tarcain, as they knew about Cassius. Then turning back to the Inquisitor. "Taldeer of Ulthwe has been already extracted and sent off to the Omnis Arcanum for personal interrogation by Chapter Master Azariah Kyras." Krauz simply nodded and sighed. "Anything she said or anything that could be of use?" The Inquisitor asked curios. "She was quiet all the time, not revealing any of her witch secrets. Though we made her realize the weakness of the Xenos. We conquered Tyrea with minimal casualties and disposed of their Ork marionettes too. The Imperial Guard keeps the Necrons and Chaos Forces at bay. So if you excuse me I have a campaign to end, Inquisitor. Regards Cassius... Any dead Raven is a loss for the whole chapter due to recent events. He fought well on Aurelia so I hoped he fought also well with you." Krauz nodded. "Cassius certainly did. The Inquisition will be off now."
Macha created a telepathic link between Stevanus, Tempestus and Noctis. "As I told Noctis during our challenge. I will do my best to stay passive and not create any tension within the group. I do not ask for protection, just know that I won't grudge if I need to be sacrificed if the rest of the team needs to move on or if it is required for you to succeed."
Jaccx watched as the rest took the challenge, not feeling up to the task he stayed back sitting under one the halls lights, he then proceeded with his meditation, putting his stalker at his side and removing his helmet, closing his eyes and taking his blade upon his hands Taking a deep breath and then exhaling...reciting some words he learned ago in low tone, the marine was lost inside his mind, it was almost like being in hibernation he stood still with out moving an inch, some minutes had pass althou the marine looked in complete harmony there was something inside that made him unease. ¨(I....i cant concentrate.....something is wrong here....this place, it dosent feel real at all now...,what gives?...i didnt felt like this before.....ahhhh....aahhhh.....)¨ His breathing increasing by the minute. ¨¨(It dosent make sense...i hear those 4 armed xenos breathing..., the air coming around in waves at me.....this light wich has a warm feeling.......feeling....yes and yet it dosent feel real nor natural..., what is this?...im starting to feel more disturbed than calm....what.....what ever..... i hope we get out of here as soonest we can....this place is too perfect to be true...)¨ And soo the marine stayed there still meditating....
Chaplain saw the Dark Angel staying behind and he sighed. Guess he needs time, he mused as he followed Orichalci. He heard his brother Librarian talking to him and he answered back on private vox. "Tempestus, I don't like this place at all. You talked about simulations and how they perfectly simulate surroundings, so I'm guessing, this all can be some sort of illusion as well. Can you sense anything new with your powers?" Instantly, he heard another voice inside of his head. It was of the Eldar. After he listened to her words, Stevanus simply answered We shall see, as he continued down the stairs. "So what's this new challenge about?" he asked the Leader of aliens.
"The planet of V'lynn. It resides in another dimension and you are brought there. You must either destroy all but your kingdom. Forge an alliance with another kingdom and destroy anyone who opposes that alliance. Or find a way so that all can co-exist with eachother. The Kingdoms are: The Kingdom of Ora of the Humans and the Freedom. Every species is welcome as long as they play by the rules. The Kingdom of the Dracons, half humans, half dragons. The Kingdom of the Vampires, living in a city in eternal darkness, sucking blood of their living victims and turn them, upon choice, in their own kin. The Kingdom of the Lauxens, innovators and living on their flying island. The Kingdom of the Elves, the wisest, oldest and the ones who truly mastered magic and their source: Mana. The Kingdom of the Undead, similar to the Elves being an ancient race, using Mana excessively, mainly following their own personal ambitions." Orichalcos explained as they reached a hall with a uncanny orb in the center placed on an Altar. "Stevanus, it is up to you to choose which Kingdom you and your companions will take. Furthermore, each needs to take a position. Your body will remain the same, but you cannot take your armor or weapons as you have to work with what they have on their world. So that you can join any kingdom without raising question, your translator membranes will also work as a perception filter. The other ones will think of you as their own while truly you are still yourself. Even if you call eachother by your names from here, the others will think you use your new names you will gain by taking a place in that world." "Any questions?" He asked with a smile.
