Backdated to September


He stuck out like a sore thumb.

The guy was absolutely massive; tall, heavily built, and rippling with impossible musculature. Aurelia was used to being around wolves much larger than herself, given her father's imposing stature and her sister who had inherited it - but this fellow was absurd. She almost felt apprehensive approaching him, wondering if he'd even hear her from so much closer to the ground.

You're new, she said by way of greeting, her tone neutral. Aurelia approached him with her usual perfect stride with each step measured and carefully placed, seeming almost military in her composure; it was how she had always been, and likely would always be. I assume someone led you here?

She tipped her head back to look up at the wolf.

My name is Aurelia, current Wisdom of Dawnbreak. What skills might you have to offer?

Azrael has promised, perhaps not in word but in spirit, to not belittle the leader of this place. She is a small one, but he knows better than to doubt the small. It was the blood of Guardsmen (and Guardswomen) that won battles most of the time. Each sacrifice to be honored and all that.

But he's not there now, is he? And the gap between them is narrower than the gap between them had they been Imperium.

The look on his face is impassive, difficult to read. The looks on hers is equally nothing, and he finds that immediately soothing. Something he doesn't have to figure out. Something that isn't strange. "Azrael Pahadron," he states. "Of the Adeptus Astartes, the Black Templars." It likely means nothing to her-- it had meant nothing to Solulfur. "Solulfur has led me here, and told me much about your culture. I've come to see for myself."

Perfect neutrality stared back into the face of perfect neutrality.

Aurelia hadn't met anyone like him before - someone like her. He wasn't eager to please, he did not boast or carry himself with an expectant air, he did not snivel or grovel. How fascinating. He simply was.

But what was a Black Templar?

We are a people that believes in freedom of choice, she said, Leaders are elected by the collective, and voted out if they are no longer suitable. We believe in unity, duty, and sacrifice for the good of the pack.

She wondered what he valued. Whatever a Templar was, it sounded quite impressive.

What does a Templar do?

"So Solulfur has told me. I feel it a fair way to choose leadership. I have no desire to kneel to mortals-- but I can respect the will of a collective, and I can respect a leader that does not speak down to their followers." He pauses. "I am mortal now, too, I suppose. We are equal in that regard. Your leadership is meant more for organization than self-aggrandizing. Am I right to expect that?"

It doesn't occur to him that people would find his past insane. When he speaks, it is with utmost sincerity. "It is decreed that the universe would belong to the God-Emperor of Mankind. As Astartes, I was gifted a portion of his power. Chosen for it, even. The Black Templars journey the galaxy to cut down the aliens that would live upon the God-Emperor's lands." The gravitas in his voice speaks volumes of the sacred nature of his task.

(But in the back of his mind, he remembers the taste of iced tea on a hot summer day. The whispers of a demon.)

"Would I join you, I would protect your lands similarly. As Solulfur says we are on Holy Terra, we are safe within the God-Emperor's lands; a crusade would not be required, I do not think. Wolves are not man, but they are Of Terra. However, should alien filth show its face in the holy land, I would be required by law to kill it. Even now, in this body." He pauses. "I believe I have been called into retirement, in a new life. Even still. I do not know if you would ask me to die for your cause, but should you earn such loyalty, I would do so willingly."

(But by the God-Emperor or by Slaanesh?)

Kneel? Mortals?

Aurelia felt her eyes narrow as she studied him more closely, wondering if there was some godly aura she had missed about him. He seemed quite normal, save for his impressive build; while she would be hard-pressed to believe any claims of having once possessed whatever hands were (courtesy of that strange prince from before), she was even less likely to put faith in any stranger with delusions of godhood and immortality.

Still.

At least he seemed to understand and - dare she say - even hold respect for democracy.

You are right, Aurelia replied. We are only figureheads meant to safeguard the ideals of equality and hard work we were founded upon, and exist on a rotational basis.

Further context was provided as to the wolf's peculiar references to mortals before, and a colorful parade of words she had never encountered before fell from his lips as easily as one might speak of the weather. Mankind, galaxies, aliens, God-Emperors... it was all very unusual, and she wondered if he had hit his head very hard in the recent past.

He wrapped it up well enough. Whatever... role he thought he played in his past, it seemed very important, and a galaxy sounded quite a great deal larger than a plot of land like the Vale. However untrue his story may be, he believed in it just as he certainly believed in himself and alien filth.

Respect and trust are to be earned and upheld, she affirmed, It goes both ways. I hope the wolves of Dawnbreak to be worthy of your loyalty, and I...

She struggled with this next statement, but it seemed important to him.

... Support your right to... kill this... alien filth... should it appear.

Aurelia would have to inquire further on what such a being entailed.

"Let us hope the xeno does not set foot 'pon Holy Terra." Their disgusting kind could not truly appreciate the beauty of this land. Every creature he's seen thus far has been immaculate. Even Aurelia before him is a fine example of her personhood, no sign of mutation upon her in the slightest. And it would seem there are no sorcerers in this place, either. Good. The Black Ships need not come.

...Not that a non-human could be a psyker, he's fairly sure.

"Regardless. I will join you in your cause. I will protect your lands and feed your people." And with that, he's made his oath. It's one he would take very, very seriously.
