Vir moved quickly from dimly lit panel to unlit one, reading labels and readouts and muttering to himself. This could be safely cut out of the start up loop, that would need to be watched. Slowly, a plan was forming, as he considered each aspect of the problem, his limited resources, and the crew he...

"As you command. I will contact the pilot of the Lighter that transefered us to the bridge, and use his vessels vox to communicate with the Illumination of Glory. I'll direct the supplies to the same bay we arrived in, and proceed to there once I am done." Matching actions to pronouncements, Vir did...

Brow furrowed, the tech-priest tapped the door twice in contemplation. "This could hold us up. I can understand how important this is, but I feel I must inform you that opening this without damaging its mechanisms will take some time. Perhaps longer than the tasks the others have been set to." Once ...

"Understood. I will join you as soon as I can." Getting the servitor off the bridge had been his first priority, and he had borrowed a few armsmen to carry it, although he lent a proverbial hand himself. He had selected a small maintenance shrine, probably for cognitors or damage control, to stash t...

"I'm afraid we will have quite a bit of work to accomplish our objectives Lord Captain." Vir removed his hands from the servitor and retracted his mechadendrite fully. "It would seem that there is no central servicing or control facility for these servitors. I believe this was to prevent mutineers o...

Nodding to Ravion, Vir immediately approached the inactive servitor. He did so with due caution, but was fairly confident that it had been inactive for long enough as to be no real threat. Certainly, one of the troops had checked it without suffering any harm. However, he was going to be doing somet...

"As you command." Vir knew a number of ways to transfer the data-in a pinch he could translate much of it into techno-lingua or other auditory codes and transmit over a vox link. It would take time, but so long as they were still in contact with the crew in the lighter bay, it shouldn't be too hard....

Vir checked the throne system again and then pulled away from it. "Nothing in these archives. We need to more fully restore power before we can conduct a full investigation of the ship's records, too many systems to power them individually with these cells and I only have so many adepts on board. In...

Having downloaded the map, Vir consulted it for a short while and then handed his dataslate to Ravion. "This particular accommodation looks to be the most likely." His tone lightened considerably as he continued. "However, I would suggest airing them out and replacing the bedclothes before you retir...

Well, that had certainly sucked all the fun out into space. Along with a goodly number of the crew probably. Vir spared a moment to calculate the odds of some of them being embedded in nearby asteroids, then aborted his calculations. He opened a vox channel to the command staff in general. This had ...

Undetered by the unresponsiveness of the associated systems, Vir began looking for any sort of logs, reports or other information on the captain's personal station. That was what he had really been looking for. Even orders logged by the system itself would be interesting and potentially useful. With...

Vir shrugged at the question on what he knew thus far as he brought the throne online and inspected its interface. Given its sophistication he would not be surprised to see it have a full MIU link like those of Titans. "I wanted to be certain of my findings. It is a very complex system, likely capab...

"Yes, a very strange thing. What makes it all the more puzzling is how unlikely it should be on a ship like this. Wards this strong aren't breached by just any foul spirit." Vir drummed his fingers absently on the side of the command throne, the absence of any real sound from it a minor novelty he h...

"Praise the Omnisiah and bless my circuits." Few systems were likely to be as heavily defended as this one, but then again, under normal operation most of its security would come from the crew themselves. Cracking it open should provide some answers. If he was a betting man, and Vir was, he would wa...

"Never a convenient backup when you need one after hundreds of years of inactivity. Typical." Vir signaled for one of the dwindling power cells they had brought on the mission to be carried forward to his position. As he waited, he considered the lifeless monitors, cognitors and other systems. That ...

The Explorator stood up, shaking his head slowly. "Incredible. I've seen tech-priests willingly implant much cruder systems than this into themselves. Whoever commissioned these must have had quite the purse." Sighing, he continued. "Unfortunately Captain, I was unable to discern more than that. Muc...

"Possible, but I would suspect that it might have been part of the ships compliment. I've seen similar designs aboard ships before for use in boarding and counter-boarding. It seems more and more likely that warp influence alone cannot account for all the damage the crew inflicted on one another." V...

Vir hummed and then spoke slightly too loudly for it to be considered speaking to himself. "It is possible that the source may have been internal or from a boarding party's melta bombs. However, one must not forget alternatives such as bombs or macrocannon shells which might have penetrated the armo...
