As Tarcain finished his story, Shin carried a wounded Krauz over his shoulder, some Imperial Stormtroopers made a sporadic bed with some metal plates and laid Krauz carefully down. He was only slighted wounded, nothing serious, but unconscious. The medic of the Inquisitoral Stormtroopers gave a quick diagnosis of concussion and well the piece of metal that penetrated his right leg, but without the proper tools it would be too dangerous to remove it, alas it was at least disinfected to stop the wound from spreading and getting worse.

Eventually all survivors were gathering around Stevanus, including the Mechanicus Armory Supervisor and his servant, but also six more other Mechanicus Servants emerged from further in the south, coming from the Armory which had prevailed also. Though it was sad as Tarcain, Thain and Shin before saw that the Armory had been filled with at least thirty of them, and only a fifth managed to survive the crash.

Apparently as everyone gathered three cases with Imperial Aquilla appeared out of nowhere, near where Stevanus and the others appeared. In one would be The Emperor's Light be found, in another the equipment of Macha and in another some mixed equipment of Bolters, Chainswords, ammo, grenades and Pistols.

"It seems we were brought here... Teleport? Webway?" Macha asked, but out loud rather than telepathic as her head hurted and put a hand on Noctis shoulder to support herself, though she had listened to the Blood Raven's tale... And the death of her former sister, before she switched craftworlds. A single tear rolled down her cheek as she remembered the face, hair, and entire character of Taldeer, hoping her soulstone is at least safe.

"Well Sir, what's the plan?" The Major and highest ranking officer of the Stormtroopers asked Stevanus after saluting. "My name is Konrad Liberius, highest ranking officer still alive from the Hammer of Faith."

EDIT: Everything from here is after Noctis reaction.

Macha saw the reaction of Noctis and embraced him tight, not saying a word for she felt the same way. Shin acknowledged the reaction and understood well, his heart was heavy too, for he remembered well the events on-board the Eldar ship, the first mission of his with this Deathwatch. The battle against Ahriman and the Black Templar imitators.

To learn that all that was for nothing.... It was too much for Noctis who had a stronger bond than any of these with the Eldar.

Noctis wrapped an arm around Macha desiring her comfort. "Was it all... for nothing Macha... Was it all for nothing?" He asked, the pain in his eyes hidden behind his helm.

"No Orkan Wolf, it never is. You have averted a greater danger, to have saved the book so Ahriman could not get it, to wear the rune around your very neck which is still an essence of her, to have allowed her to live further to allow her to do whatever she had to do... It was her decision, she protected others always more than herself... But I am sure it was not all for nothing, the tides of destiny are hard, complicated and complex.... You must live on, for it was her desire."

She kept the embrace tight, trying to comfort him the best, but who was she to do so when she felt the very same way, since Taldeer has gone from Biel-Tan, everything had changed.

Seeing the anger the space wolve showed only proved jaccx of his thoughts of them, he wouldnt say anything he didnt care....he still had a particular hate for the eldar...,but to show such fury for the death of a mere xeno made the marine remember what it feels to loose some one close to you, a sad reality every one most embrace in this existence, death comes for all....sooner or later.

¨Hmmm pity....to let such power in the hands of a heretic.....¨

Tarcain looked at his severed cybernetic arm and his armor. There was dents and scars in them he needed it repaired but he needed cbernetic arm first or agleast something that could help him grab and move things. He looked on at the death watch members a question was raised in his mind did they know her personally had she aided them? He made a mental note to ask the chaplin. maybe she saved a live of some of there team mates or maybe she aided them like the biel tan farseer macha did with gabriel. As his thoughts ended his eyes then went to the mechicus servants as he began his walk over to them and ask them if they could repair his armor and left arm.

¨Still if we are here then you won the challenges....yes i remember that atlest.....but who or what were behind them....was simple erease out of our minds...i aint the only one who forgot right? that or i hitted my head way to hard...¨

jaccx paused for a brief moment, he felt as the air was missing inside his lungs.

¨Ahhh...hows the inquisitor doing?....we havent found any more survivers.....or pieces we can recognise....and i aint no expert but this bird aint flying any time soon...¨

As the marine sat on one of the ammo crates.

¨Hmmmp......a corrupted chapter master....a chapter in civil war.....my condolences raven....but i wouldnt be surprise if the inquisition decides to....take some actions...¨

He smiled at every one around without a worry of anything.
¨But as far as i know we completed our mission....that means we are tecnically waiting for new orders...we could go there and help perhaps but who am i to say something? the inquisitor has the final verdict in all of his!¨

Jaccx then holded his hands toguether while stretching his legs a bit.

¨Hahaha what do you all think?....¨

feasting and drinking, that's all Aldrim can remember, drinking so much that it would have caused others to pass out long ago but it had very little effect on the wolf. Waking up with what seemed to be a hangover, he opened his eyes to see their ship, only it wasn't but in his mind he knew it was The Hammer of Faith.

Aldrim stood and stared at the crumbling vessel, large chunks of the ship missing... all the wolf could do was laugh at how inconvenient the situation was "first we riding primitive beasts into battle and now our ship is destroyed" for some reason he found this very amusing.

looking around and seeing his brothers in their conversation the wolf made his way into the vessel in search of some weapon seeing as his were decimated in the moon's self destruction along with what remained of his real arms, seeing the body of Shin carrying the Inquisitor out of the wreckage, Aldrim gave up his search knowing it was useless. Looking over at his wolf brother embracing the xeno, Aldrim simply laughed harder, finding this entire situation hilarious...

As the weapon crates appeared the humor drained instantly, looking at them and bragging a bolt pistol and chainsword and placing them on his belt he grabbed a bolter.

OOC thank you for the insight into that world Urian, that is a very touching story and I will remember your friend as without his actions and creating a world that brought you into the RP realm none of us would be having this adventure online right now with each other. so in some small way your friend has touched our lives as well, creating an opportunity for new friendships to be made from all over the world, no matter the time differences

"I am sorry about casius" as veritas spoke he was behind the raven stil scaning for minds then he turned to the ship "il be back ive got something I need to retrieve" as he spoke he tried to make his way to his quarters to retreive his book and his last barel of ale

Thain suddenly went silient, as he saw the situation infront of him, seing a wolf hug that xeno witch and another just loughfing at it, was this normal? wasent the deathwatch supposed to end these things. A great anger started stirring withing him. he stopped listening to their stories. He dident care for that now, this situation was plain wrong.
He wantet to ask what was going on hear, but the only thing that left his mouth was a deep growl, as he startet to tense his muscles for a fight and for some reason his armor felt tighter than usual, this could not go on, normally he dident care for rules but this was plain wrong.

Mission #6 - Briefing

The cold wind started to blow across the wasteland, bringing the sand up in the air, creating a storm of red over the horizon. It hit against the Chaplain's black power armor, Carnifex's bones whistling from his shoulder while heads of Lord Governor, Chaos Sorcerer and genestealer named Kyle dangled from his belt. Chaplain's Skull mask, with a single red tear below his right eye, gave no expressions while Tarcain spoke his story.

He heard reactions of his brothers. They were to be expected because he felt something similar inside of him. When Blood Raven finished his story, Chaplain spoke up. "There are many sins in this world, but nothing so grave as turning away from the Emperor's light. A Chapter of His Chosen warriors fallen from grace. You couldn't bring more dire news to my ears."

"If they think they will get away with this, THEY ARE WRONG!" He slammed his axe into the broken piece of metal next to him, Ill Omen cutting through it with ease. "Cassius was a good brother. He was brave and fought with great courage. His death was a hero's death! His soul is now resting at the Emperor's side, forever illuminated by His holy radiance."

"But his death will not be in vain. Nor will be any of the men who died at the hands of traitors," he pointed at the wreck of "Hammer of Faith". "Kyras thinks he won, but we shall show him the error of his ways! He underestimated heights of our ZEAL! Kill-team Lightbringer is still not defeated, and while even one of us draws breath, there will be no rest for the wicked, no peace among the stars." Chaplain brought up his axe, at first pointing it at Tarcain, then turning it to face each and every one of them. "We are sworn now, by the Emperor, bellowed by us all, to avenge the fallen. Every Blood Raven who died at the hands of traitors shall not be forgotten! Every man loyal to the Emperor who died at the hands of traitors SHALL NOT BE FORGOTTEN!"

Stevanus raised his axe high, red sand unable to get a grip on weapon's black metal. "SONS OF THE EMPEROR! All odds are against us, but we shall not falter. Pray to Him for deliverance and you shall have it! For I have walked through the valleys of sin and oceans of night. I have looked xenos and daemons in the eyes. I have heard whispers of dark things that wanted my soul. And I have never once encountered anything that struck the fear into me that a Traitor would feel if he ever truly understood the resolve of Emperor's Chosen Sons!"

"So I say now, we shall bring news of this to the Imperium even if only one of us survives. That is the vow I bestow upon you. Have faith in the Emperor and He shall reward you with hate. Pray to Him and He shall reward you with fury. Use His gifts and bring ruin to your enemies!"

Chaplain looked around, "But first, we need to get away from this rock. See if the medic can help Tarcain and Thain with their wounds." He turned to his Librarian friend, "Umbra, see if you can sense anything on this planet that might give us a hint just where are we. In the meantime, set up the perimeter. Krauz isn't going anywhere, and this place needs to be fortified. When that's done, we will split in teams and try to scout the surroundings."

OOC will wait for either Urian's or Watchman's input, and after that we go and check the planet
