OOC: I bet that scared him The thing that the lictor bumped into is a Tau, and is now pointing his weapon at him. The Phantom of Lorias stares into the Tau's eyes (or helmet?) and speaks with his mind, "You are another ally, yes?"
(helmet, all tau wear helmets except Etherreals ; at least what I know from the fire caste ; pathfinders can mark targets and are usually snipers just FYI ; also regards your objective: http://wh40k.lexicanum.com/wiki/Gauntlets_of_Ultramar#.Uqu_vNKpSKg )
He soon notices the Lictor communicating through telepathy and quickly responds "Yes, I am Vlas'Dra of the Fal'Shia Sept. I require direction to the artifact known as the Gauntlets of Ultramarr, I assume you're heading that way as well?"
"Correct." The lictor points north with a mantis claw. "I am following a scent from a lychguard that has already headed that way." He looks to the path-finder again."I was previously traveling while invisible in order to avoid the feral beasts, but if I'm to lead the way, it would probably be best to stay seen by you. Don't you agree?"
"Mon-keigh, you should come while they don't bring reinforcements" - I call to the human Then, using my enhanced agility I continue to the armory with both weapons prepared for an ambush.
"You have provided much assistance and I am grateful for that. Now, let us venture forth before the beasts of this vessel catch up to us."
*For Grigdusher's sake I just assume his Whiteshield / Guard Conscriptor follows your lead* As you proceed, the 2 Tyranid Warriors from earlier jump now from their hideout, assaulting you in a full speed rush, slashing their claws after you
The Phantom nods his head and begins walking down a corridor, hunched over so he can follow the scent trail better.
Soon you and the Tau catch up to the Chaos Terminator, Imperial Seargent and Lychguard. *You notice a wall of dead meat (Hormagaunts) blocking the way to further proceed*
I use my mantis claws to break the wall down View: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oO43pDxCulo&feature=player_detailpage
