“Hope it’s good though,” Echidna said as they watched the Astartes grapple down into the ravine before them. “The cost of making it was obscene.”

2024-04-17 16:00:11 +0000 UTC View PostThe following couple of days turned out to be surprisingly calm. OR boring, depending on who you asked.
I spent the large majority of it attempting to beat Valenith black and blue while limiting my power output to the same level he was at. Emphasis on the attempting.

I easily hid ourselves from most prying eyes, to be honest, only Mephiston would have been able to notice me, or maybe if Guilliman’s ultra-instincts somehow activated and alerted him of my presence.
None of the above mentioned happened. There was no sign of Mephiston and Guill...

2024-03-27 17:00:12 +0000 UTC View PostI’ve plundered minds one after the other, jumping from ship to ship without being noticed, at least as far as I knew.
