So it appears. All these years, I never imagined this trip would turn out this way. But as the Emperor wills it, I suppose. Stynier, you're an Arbitor and a Schola man. We should be able to figure this out between us. :waves hands at those who have not posted yet: This lot needs to speak up yet and I can't figure out what Twitchy here is going on about. What's all this about Baal?

You, uhhhh, asked me, from whence did I hail.

Forgive me, but isn't that a rather . . . difficult place to live?

Drk_Oblitr8r wrote:Mr... uhhh... Stumps? Can you help give me some pointers to being less of a coward? Mother used to say I'd grow out of it under the right leadership.

Just remember to die for the Emperor. Then you will be a martyr, and you won't have the dark creatures of the warp feast upon your immortal soul until the end of time.

Also, imagine the enemies of man to be wearing only their underwear. It makes them far less intimidating.

I do not think this Obiliterator person is one we need fear. He seems simple, perhaps crazy, but I'd think our assailants would be more subtle than that.

Quite frankly, my Ministorum training leaves me at a loss in this situation. Why would these murders board a ship bound for Holy Terra? It seems a poor strategy. They'll never escape the ship. Without the proper codes, they'll never breach the naval flotila, and only the captain had access to those. ::sigh:: Far be it from me to try to understand the actions of xenos scum.

That being said, I'd like to survive this journey. Though the alien will perish no matter the outcome, we can all agree that it is better that it is our hands that accomplish the Emperor's Will.

Oh, sorry, Stubbs. I'd forgotten your lack of hands.

Happens a lot. At least I got a hook.

I highly doubt many among us believed this trip could turn out in such a way, though like you said the Emperor wills it and his reasoning is far beyond our comprehension. Yes, I believe the two of us may be able to figure this out after all between us we have several years experience with investigations. :turns to those mentioned by Manchu: Yes please speak up, your opinions could prove highly invaluable. Odd that Twitchy as you call him claims not only to be from Baal but that he is incapable of figuring out where the ship is going before he gets on it!

Lord of Ghosts, please tell me you are suffering from some sort of logorrhea. I'd really hate to hang you based on a merely human psychological disorder.

Mental disorders are disabilities.

Disabilities are mutations.

Suffer not the mutant to live!

WAIT!!! Lord of Ghosts story seems too lazy IMO, either he's just lazy, or LoG is trying to make us think so.

VOTE: Lord of Ghosts

Before we... execute him I purpose we continue our investigation into the others, perhaps he simply is ill like Manchu suggests. If that is the case we can always kill him when we are done.

I should probably qualify my prior post: having your arms and legs bitten off doesn't count as a disability.

BrotherStynier wrote:You, Mister Gornall was it? What exactly did you say you do?

I am a farmer from an isolated agriworld. I was blessed by the Emperor to win my planet's 100-year lottery to travel as a pilgrim to Holy Terra and return with tales of His holy providance and the splendor of His seat of power. I hopeto further inspire my people as they strive to feed the Imperium. I will not let two lowly heretics cast a pall over what is my duty and my Emperor's guided destiny. I will do whatever is needed to help root them out and purge them with fire.

EDIT: OOC: Reading fail! I missed this whole last page. Oops!

This blasphemer equated the Emperor with those, those... things!

A ripple of revulsion plays across Valhallan's face.

Some things are not meant to be said. Even if he isn't an xenos, he's likely a heretic. You had best explain yourself, Lord of Ghosts, before you become one.

Laziness is hardly the vice with which we're concerned. What you just started screaming makes hardly any more sense than Lord of the Ghost's gibberish. Explain yourself. Throne, at this rate we'll be sure to have innocent blood on our hands before the day is out.

Either he's lazy, trying to trick us, or trying to trick us about him tricking us.

*Stands dumbstruck at the words coming from both Drk and LoG's mouths*

What madness is this!?!? You two make the servitor look like the fluent preacher Osis Bama. I would not be suprised if either of you were heretical scum! Explain yourselves or face His Judgement!

Then those of us loyal to the God Emperor, may he light our way, will endeavor to make sure you can complete your task.

Innocence proves nothing... :I say shooting Manchu a slightly stern look: You should do well to remember that from your service as an Arbitor.

Orkeosaurus wrote:I should probably qualify my prior post: having your arms and legs bitten off doesn't count as a disability.

You're a veteran of the Emperor's wars, you have nothing to fear.

BrotherStynier wrote:Innocence proves nothing... :I say shooting Manchu a slightly stern look: You should do well to remember that from your service as an Arbitor.

That's exactly the sort of thing I was hoping to get away from. Who could believe this insanity would transpire on the way to Holy Terra? Still, you're right. We can't leave a stone unturned. What would your Schola masters say about a situation like this? Back in the hive, we'd just interrogate everyone after applying the electro-knives for a while.

Hope? Oh the Schola masters would have had fun with you, me on the other hand I can see how hope can be helpful. In the Schola they'd have suggested various degrees of coercion physical, much like how your hive worked, and other wise. In this situation I think other would work better rather than physical torture.

OOC: Blimey, this might get complicated.

Well after Waking up and hearing the news, I am very suspicious about very one right now.

Right, who are you then? Why are you here, all that. Let's have it out now, lad.

Indeed, please enlighten us.

I am a just a regular on the ship, I am here Because my young bother can not look after himself so I must protect him from who ever is the trader among us. Why are you so demanding as to know who I am sir, in this situation everyone should be clam and not assertive as you.

Really, a regular? Where's your uniform? We are demanding because in these situations things need to be known.
