“What then is this Project Arminius? Most here know of it’s existance now after the incident on Saris Secundus. This is a problem we simply cannot ignore even if its scale seems minor.
We have the cruiser “Fires of Terra” shutting its own engines down to allow his escape despite the heroic and fatal efforts of its crew, Inquisitors follwing edicts seemingly ordered by ghosts within the machine – some commands stating directly that this heretic was not to be touched and of course we have Inquisitor Andrakus, my young protegé, captured and released unharmed as if her presence shocked him into inactivity.
Who or what is this creature? A chaos marauder allowing civilians to survive his attacks? Boarding and crippling the fallen frigate “Scent of Decay” as it hung above Archellos? More important then this however -and I cannot overstate this- is the fact we are faced with a plot to ensure his survival that seemingly leads to very foundation of this conclave and perhaps the Imperium itself.”
Lord Inquisitor Calph Mirall
