Hondas Blog: The Unity of Totality

11/14/2016

Picture
The room stank of desperation and decay.
 
Located near the river in an abandoned warehouse, the multitude enclosed by the decrepit walls, were down on their knees, bowing towards a figure at the head of the room. A smaller group of figures, standing back in the shadows behind their leader, stood guard in a loose semi-circle around the focus of the gathering's attention.
 
The whispered chanting of vague, unrecognizable syllables could be heard hissing from their foul breathed mouths.
 
The object of the crowd's attention, a lone figure standing with arms upraised, faced the gathering, as if drawing something intangible from their efforts. Eyes rolled back into his sockets, head tilted back, the figure opened his mouth as if to deeply inhale.
 
As the chanting increased in tempo and volume, soft wisps of light began to slowly flow from the mouths of the worshipping crowd and drift towards the figure, circling his mouth like moths to a flame, only to eventually disappear into his mouth. As more of the wisps entered his gullet, a faint flickering light began to emanate from his chest.
 
Just as the chanting began to turn into a ragged chorus of shouts and wails, the doors at the back of the warehouse exploded inward, the remains of the entryway open to the dark night as two figures stood in a corona of smoke.
 
The first figure, bearing a helm that covered most of his face and a staff of writhing metal stared out at the gathered throng and nodded as if to indicate "inside". Then the second figure, standing slightly behind him, armless and wearing a helm with a glowing orb for a face, began shuffling towards the front of large room.
 
Almost immediately, the worshipping throng turned and stood to face the lone advancing figure, faces crazed from the act of worship. Much like a school of fish, acting as if of one mind, the crowd flowed towards the solitary intruder.
 
In an instant, a flash of lightning issued from the helm of the second figure, striking several of the closest members of the cult, causing them to ignite in great bursts of flame accompanied by the horrendous sound of their screams. Yet even this display of might could not sway their passions as the crowd continued to close. It would be their second mistake that night, only superseded by the poor choice of being at the wrong place and at the wrong time.
 
The armless figure continued to advance into the crowd, lightning flashing out, clearing a path to the front of the room. Sensing the futility of continuing their attack, the mob parted before him like water before a prophet of olden times. Even the most battle crazed, faced with the burning remains of multiple members, parted to let the figure through scrambling towards the long walls on either side in an attempt to flee his flaming wrath. As the lightning bearer moved closer to the front, another group emerged.
 
The body guard, smaller in number, but heavily armed, let loose with a multitude of shots as they sought to prevent the armless intruder from its inferred target. All through this next phase of the fight, the cult leader stood still with his arms upraised. Despite a heavy outpouring of projectiles, the armless figure continued its advance untouched. The bullets seemed to turn into sparks, whose flashing light only added to the unnerving image of the shambling figure's implacable advance. In the end, the body guards did not fare any better than the worshipping throng. Flashes of lightning issued from its face and turned the body guard into a ring of burning fire circling their leader.
 
It was at this point that the cult leader appeared to become aware of the threat to his person. He tilted his head forward, eyes looking out, and from his mouth vomited a fiery blast of translucent flame that completely enveloped the armless assassin. For several seconds the flames engulfed the figure as it stood motionless before the onslaught.
 
Satisfied, that the intruder had been dealt with, the cult leader slowly closed his mouth and the stream of flames ceased. It was then in horror that he realized that the assassin remained untouched. This would be the last thought that he would carry with him to his death, for the response to his flaming attack was another flash of lightning which caused his spontaneous ignition.
 
When the cult leader's screams had ended, the assassin turned to face the helmed figure still standing in the entrance of the warehouse. The survivors also turned their attention to the figure, unsure what was to happen next.
 
Looking out at the silent throng, the helmed figure spoke with a dry, ageless voice.
 
"Unity has come. The Dragon has need of you."
 
Confused, the cult members looked between themselves, unsure of what to do next.
 
It was then that the chittering horde of scarabs rained down from the ceiling, each hungrily seeking a host.
 
Totality and Morpheus drifted back into the darkness to a backdrop of wounded screams.

"Okay Jervis, let's get this over with, there's a lot going on right now."
 
"Very good sir, but I would like to point out that there is a lot going on out there and busy or not, you need to hear what I have to say. As you are able to see from the attachments, the territory firmly under control by the Dragon cult continues to grow, despite intense counter-efforts on our part."

The table was cold.
 
Just like every medicae office he'd ever been in, especially in the Guard.
 
Beeson wasn't sure why they separated everyone into individual cells, maybe it was to keep them from talking to each other, maybe it was to see if any of them would crack.
 
The door to his cell opened up. Outside were two large, oddly shaped figures and a smaller, frailer looking figure standing between them. For reasons he was unable to determine, Beeson was more disturbed by the smaller of the three. 
 
"So why are you here Mr. Smythe?" whispered the smaller man.
 
"Uh, I don't know who Smythe is, my name is Beeson. Jared Beeson."
 
"Is that so, I must be confused. So you are here Mr. Sm-Beeson, to join the Dragon, is that correct?"
 
'Y-yes sir. I want to be part of the change. I was told that you, uh, or the 'dragon' were going to change things. That we wouldn't have to live like we do, in the slums, worked to death...unappreciated. I was told that the 'Dragon' was going to change everything. I want to be a part of that."
 
"I see. So you want to...fight against your rulers, Mr. Beeson? You came here to give the Dragon something?"
 
Beeson replied, "Yes sir."

​"It is as you feared."
 
"The Gue'ron'sha have returned. Curiously, we note that there appear to be two different sects or organizations operating on the surface, one of which we have encountered before during the Mu'gulath Expansion. Also of interest is the fact that they do not seem to be working in coordination with each other. We are surmising that each may be here for different reasons."
 
The Por'O pondered this information briefly, before replying, "Is this type of behavior common?"
 
The holographic image looked down off the screen as if reading.
 
"No, this is unlike our previous exposures to their efforts. In other Gue'la campaigns, such as Tar'O they have operated independently of others sects, whereas the continuing expansion across the Third Sphere Gulf, we have faced multiple sects working in loose conjunction with each other. In this case, we have to assume that they are not aware of each other's actions."
 
Irritated, the Por'O shot back, "That makes no sense! How are they to synergize the results of their efforts...how are we to know what their intentions are if they won't work together?"

"Very well, let's get going Jervis." said the Lord Commandant.
 
"Yes, sir. If you will reference the map on the wall. First off, you'll note the green area in the upper right, which has been labeled 'Dragon town'. This descriptor has been feeding into us from some of our  informants who are still active in that area.
 
The intel that we are getting is that once someone goes in, they are never heard from again. We've had safe houses and listening posts in that general area as well, all neutralized by means unknown. When we can get an agent or servitor into the area, they disappear as well, usually within 48 hours standard. What is most disconcerting is the fact that the area in just a few short weeks has grown from the dashed area to the current size."
 
Glumly, "We don't know why that is or what is driving the expansion."
 
"Also troubling...the green dots you see to the Southwest are snatch and grab operations, which although successful, have yet to produce a living target to interrogate. They are occurring in areas where we've not seen targets before, so it's almost as if there is some sort of migration, generally in a Southwest direction. Again, to what purpose we do not know."
 
"The um, targets, are we losing them for the same reasons as before?", queried the Commandant.

The hologram figure popped up from the Por'O's data tablet.
 
"We are tracking an extremely elevated level of "soft" surveillance and cordon screening amongst the inter-system traffic. All communication bands are experiencing increased traffic both on the surface and between various Imperial Naval assets and task forces. This activity has begun in the last rotaa."
 
Continuing, the Kor'la communications analyst stated, "For reasons we are unable to determine, some set of circumstances have driven the humans into a flurry of activity."
 
The Por'O queried, "Are you telling me that you are unable to decipher these communications?"
 
The Kor'la analyst stated, "No, I am not saying that. We are able to intercept, decrypt, and read all of their communications, except for one signal, as clearly as we as speaking now. That isn't the problem."
 
"Then what is the problem?"

​"Okay Jervis, proceed with your update."
 
"Yes, Lord Commandant. Not surprisingly, the results of the raid were inconclusive. Although the target was apprehended, his subsequent escape..."
 
<interrupts> "Lord Commandant, I strenuously object! The prisoner did not "escape". We've all seen the vid cam footage, the interviews extracted from the guards on duty, various sensor tools in operation, as well as resulting data analytics, I repeat, the prisoner did not escape!"
 
Jervis smiled, "So then...Commander...how would you explain the circumstances of his disappearance?"
 
"The prisoner left of his own volition by means that are still under investigation."
 
Jervis replied, "And when do you think you'll conclude your...investigation Commander?"
 
The Lord Commandant stepped, "That's enough you two. The circumstances around the prisoner's disappearance are bothersome in that it seems to indicate capabilities we are currently unfamiliar with. As a result, I have requested additional support from the Ordo Xenos to assist us with this troubling matter. Now continue Jervis."

​What can I say, the post needed something to grab your attention.
Picture
​Alright, here's where we are. If you read last week's post, then you'll know that we are preparing for some storytelling via a linked narrative series of games. If you didn't then, now you do.
 
The set up will be using some old scenarios that I've modified from White Dwarf to place certain forces in specific positions so that the story can advance.
 
In short, an Ordo Hereticus Inquisitor is attempting to infiltrate forces into dangerous Crime Guild territory to acquire a person of interest known as "Mad Jack". The operation has been ordered so that someone with perceived connections to the still nascent cult "Children of the Dragon". The inquisitor does not have a lot of intel at this point and therefore is collecting facts, observations, and in some cases, individuals to flesh out his picture of what is going on.
 
So we have good guys (played by Jefe), a person of interest (Mad Jack) and all we were needing were some bad guys to shoot up.

​MISSION BRIEF:
 
TO: LORD INQUISITOR xxxx
SECURITY LEVEL: VERMILLION
XREF:  345FE4-23F3-UARW409
Picture
​A picture is emerging, albeit still fuzzy, of an emerging cult that appears to be coalescing around multiple underworld personalities. Imperial informants, those that have not disappeared in recent times, bring mentions or hints of a personality known as "The Emissary", while in the same general thread of scuttlebutt, also use words and local phrases in conjunction with the words "Dragon sent", "Dragon blessed", and "Child of the Dragon".
 
After intense cogitation analytics efforts, our data pulls have not been able to tie this movement with any known previous cult or association.
 
We have been able to infer by association that this cult has infiltrated not only several Labor Unions, but we have also observed infrequent associations with several of the more disreputable crime guilds.
 
Although the more tangible evidence of nefarious scheming has yet to surface, the extreme secrecy with which this cult conducts their operations, leaves me gravely concerned. For some reason I am reminded of a local poisonous weed that seeks to establish an extensive root network before reaching out for sources of water to tap into and consequently contaminate with dire effects to those dependent upon the water.
 
I am greatly concerned about innocuous nature of this threat.
 
Sincerely,
 
Commandant Ronaldus Gaius Falke
Arbites Sector X02-934

​Krikey was having a crappy day.

As a Captain of the Arbites, Precinct 2115, one of the scummiest districts in the capitol, he couldn't believe the reports that lay in front of him.

As a Captain of the Arbites, Precinct 2115, one of the scummiest districts in the capitol, he couldn't believe the reports that lay in front of him.
 
For several months now, the surrounding populace had not engaged in any riots, all of the "joy" dealers were missing and their street corners left standing vacant, and psyker sightings were at an all time low. If it weren't for the fact that attendance at Imperial worship services, as reported by the Ecclesiarchy, continued to decline at an alarming rate, Krikey could have been a happy man.
 
But something was seriously wrong in the big city.

Keegan gave the tourniquet another twist.

He was having a lot of trouble getting the stump to stop bleeding. Looking around and not seeing anyone left from his squad, seemed to be a sign that he wouldn't have to worry about bionics. Not that he'd mind a new leg, but the way things were going, he doubted the Hospitallers were going to get a chance to save his sorry butt.

To be frank, Keegan was a little surprised that he had made it this far.

Honda's Blog: Surly Tax Evaders Stage Protest

+++ VOX INTERCEPT: 0DJ:AA-L051
+++ VOX NODE: 284.655.71.982
+++ VOX PROTOCOL: JADE
Despite warnings to cease and desist, multiple chapters of the radical tithe evasion cult H.U.R.O.N. gathered together with teams of Non-Administratum authorized news affiliates along with minor delegations from the Simulations Acting Guild (SAG) representing juvenat impaired "B" list actors flown in from the HollyVox sector to stage a protest and demand restitution for alleged, "Crimes against the Imperium".

Notable individuals from SAG included Afflex the Grim, Leonidus de Kharnio, and the artist formerly known as "L".

The subversive elements portrayed by actors, claiming tribal affiliations with the tithe adverse H.U.R.O.N-ites, have declared the previously loyal Badab sector as a tithe free zone, no longer under obligation to the Administratum and have encouraged the inhabitants to "take their hard earned Imperial credits and their treasured first born  and spend them as they see fit so they can live the lives they truly deserve."

Administratum officials who were not authorized to comment directly on events occurring in the Badab sector surprisingly, refused to comment.

Unnamed Inquisitional sources were quoted as saying, "This isn't some ridiculous vox screen parody for unemployed poseurs. The Inquisition does not negotiate. Our beginning position is fire and complete desolation."

Pathos IV: Battle Ensues
[Last week we saw the Imperial forces fully arrayed against the Eldar menace. Unfortunately, the Eldar kin did not deploy initially, causing confusion in the ranks of the Imperial war machine. When the Eldar kin did deploy, the Imperial commanders discovered that they had been lured into a trap. Not only had the Eldar kin hidden behind the blind barrage laid out by the Imperial supporting units, but were taken aback to find that a host of the gigantic Dreamwalkers had completed their encirclement and arrived behind the Imperial's strongest flank. Soon volleys of wraith weapons began to rend the cornerstone of the Imperials left flank, a gigantic Baneblade constructed of golden armor.  Yet the Imperials had their own tricks to reveal]
