"And you know how that we are not going to move it much? We could wander for full four days and nights until we find a suitable spot. Also I do not trust you to carry it and operate it because you could malfunction and if you malfunction then who is there to fix you up? Exactly! Nobody at all." Jens said, crossing his arms.
Eljor watched the debate move onward with genuine interest. A Tech-Priest malfunctioning, he muttered and raised his finger, I doubt that is even possible all things considered. He was just about to open his mouth and correct the Guardsman's statement, but decided against it in the end and lowered his finger. Let's see where this is going, he decided.
Smiles softly as she steps forward "I propose that our Sargent carries this beacon, after all while I can find little to despite in the resolve and quality of the guardsmen here such a device should be held by our leader, as he is responsible for it anyway" she grained as if he was to refuse, he would bring to doubt his resolve and quality, leaving his only choice to carry it or designate someone to do so.
The soldier in ceremonial uniform nodded in agree to the Commissar, being glad the Cadian supports him.
The general nodded at the Commissar, "Your sergeant is getting a lot of votes today, I see. He might very well have to carry it, at this pace."
"It is settled then, I believe!" The general laughed, "Your Sergeant will carry it, but one word of warning; that thing is ridiculously fragile, so if you think it has gone haywire.. Immediately give it to the Enginseer. You don't want to keep that thing broken." "Have you brought your own equipment?" Eljor asked, tilting his head slightly, "Or do you wish to use one of the ship's several armouries?"
"I brought my own weapons!" Lucius said, running has hand along the massive knife he carried with him
"I have brought all I require from Ruvorn, the most trustworthy equipment I could have with me." Jens said and bowed his head slightly.
"Good lads," The general praised, "We need more men like you, men who show initiative. You are already making me proud!"
