  3. 03[22:59] * Rejoined channel #HouseJagenzollern
  4. [23:00] <@Adalwulf> ++WE HAVE A PROBLEM! SiSTER SERVERUS, I NEED YOUR ASSISTANCE!++
  5. 02[23:02] * @GoldenThrones (~Auberon@1328406c.141bd0a1.CSUChico.EDU) Quit (Ping timeout: 360 seconds)
  6. 01[23:03] <GoldenThrone> ++SEVERUS EN ROUTE, WHAT IS IT, PSYKER?++
  7. [23:03] <@Adalwulf> ++I just saw the Lord Sigismund that we were speaking to turn into what appeared to be a daemonic creature and disappear.++
  8. 06[23:05] * @Adalwulf moves to open the door.
  9. 01[23:05] <GoldenThrone> ++...this is no charge to make lightly. I am sending Sarge along with me.++
  10. [23:05] <@Adalwulf> ++Ave Imperitor.++
  11. 01[23:06] <GoldenThrone> As Adalwulf opens the door, he hears a horrible CRACKING sound, and the sound of laughter.
  12. 01[23:06] <GoldenThrone> A thud. Sigismund lies on his knees where he once stood.
  13. 06[23:07] * @Adalwulf turns towards the sound, then looks at the man as he backs out. Better to watch, wait, and let the Sister deal with this.
  14. 06[23:07] * @Jagenzollern immediately covers his eyes with his hands and falls over onto his side "You-! You-! You unholy WITCH!"
  15. [23:08] <@Adalwulf> "Save your breath, warp-spawn!"
  16. 01[23:08] <GoldenThrone> The door explodes open behind Adalwulf, and a hastily armed Sister Severus and Sarge, along with his retinue, file a half-circle around Gandr and his apparent Captain.
  17. 01[23:09] <GoldenThrone> "NO ONE MOVE!"
  18. 01[23:09] <GoldenThrone> The CPG agents behind the door look confused for a moment, then level their guns at the Sister and Sarge.
  19. [23:09] <@Adalwulf> "Stand down!"
  20. [23:10] <@Jagenzollern> "No! Take the witch prisoner!"
  21. [23:10] <@Adalwulf> "Wretched warp-spawn!"
  22. 01[23:10] <GoldenThrone> The CPG hold their weapons level. "We are duty-sworn to our Leader, Sir. Our apologies."
  23. [23:11] <@Jagenzollern> "I will submit to any crucible that Sister Severus can provide! I'm no warp-spawn! The witch struck me and cast some sort of spell!"
  24. 01[23:12] <GoldenThrone> The one on the right of the door motions to his vox unit, and is stopped by Sarge. "One move and we shoot, soldier."
  25. [23:13] <@Adalwulf> "I did nothing of the sort, you foul daemon! I moved and slapped who I thought was Lord Sigismund as he had begun ranting to snap him out of it. You then began changing before disappearing while spewing purple smoke."
  26. 01[23:13] <GoldenThrone> The CPG stops, and does not call for reinforcements.
  27. 01[23:13] <GoldenThrone> He slowly drawls out, "Milord. Orders?"
  28. 06[23:14] * @Jagenzollern takes to his feet "Burn the witch! I've had my fill of traitors!"
  29. 01[23:14] <GoldenThrone> "ENOUGH!"
  30. 01[23:15] <GoldenThrone> Sarge reaches into his vest and grabs something.
  31. 01[23:15] <GoldenThrone> He pulls out a familiar device.
  32. 01[23:17] <GoldenThrone> "By order of the Emperor's Holy Inquisition, I, Interrogator Daniel Sargent of the Ordo Hereticus, place Sigismund Jägenzollern and Adalwulf Gandr under arrest!"

  48. Session Ident: #HouseJagenzollern
  49. 03[18:33] * Now talking in #HouseJagenzollern
  50. 03[18:33] * Adalwulf (~chatzilla@354f3b3c.831ef56.22d996b6.cc59707X) has joined #HouseJagenzollern
  51. 03[18:33] * Freddy (~chatzilla@1c2d962f.10acf436.hstntx.sbcglobal.net) has joined #HouseJagenzollern
  52. 03[18:34] * Jagenzollern (~chatzilla@38050f2d.763458a.136d6c6e.37148937X) has joined #HouseJagenzollern
  53. 03[18:34] * Viktoria_ (~Calmswamp@e8a4d95.1c3ff672.dyn.suddenlink.net) has joined #HouseJagenzollern
  54. 01[18:42] <@GoldenThrones> The air is tense. The two men flanking the door's entryway, wearing the uniform and livery of the Jägenzollern Celestial Praetorian Guard, continue to point their weapons at Sarge, his four presumed former Guardsmen, Sister Superior Hilda Severus, and Adalwulf Gandr. Their guns flick occasionally between targets, but they stand mostly still.
  55. 01[18:43] <@GoldenThrones> Part of that may be thanks to a shocking declaration by "Sarge," now better known as Interrogator Daniel Sargent of the Inquisition.
  56. 03[18:43] * GoldenThrones sets mode: +o Adalwulf
  57. 03[18:43] * Adalwulf sets mode: +o Freddy
  58. 03[18:43] * Adalwulf sets mode: +o Jagenzollern
  59. 03[18:43] * Adalwulf sets mode: +o Viktoria_
  60. 01[18:44] <@GoldenThrones> The Guards have a resolved look on their faces, but the sweat on their brows and their occasional glance at their voxes betray uncertainty.
  61. 01[18:47] <@GoldenThrones> Sargent straightens up, and stuffs his rosette back under his flak vest, putting his hand on his lasgun. "Now then, you two lads are going to come in here, since you're witnesses. Got it?"
  62. 01[18:47] <@GoldenThrones> The Guards gulp nervously. "And if you're just doing this to execute the Leader and us?"
  63. 01[18:48] <@GoldenThrones> "There's more Jägenzollerns aboard the ship than just Sigismund. We'd be hunted down and killed in hours."
  64. 01[18:49] <@GoldenThrones> The Guards look at Adalwulf. "Sir? This has gotten complicated, but what are your orders? Sorry about before."
  65. [18:50] <@Adalwulf> "We will abide by the Interrogator's will. We serve the Emperor and shall not fear his judgement."
  66. 01[18:52] <@GoldenThrones> The CPG men glance at Sigismund. "My Leader, is it in your best interest to do as Master Gandr says?"
  67. 06[18:53] * @Jagenzollern rubs his head, still bowled over by the sudden injection of the Inquisition into the scenario. Everyone is keeping secrets from him. "For the time being. I'm no warp-spawn and the Interrogator can help refute this slander.
  68. 01[18:58] <@GoldenThrones> The men keep their guns level, and swivel around to behind Sigismund. The one man of Sarge's does the same. Sarge breathes out some. "Good. Good. Now, I don't know if you've heard, lads, but Master Gandr has charged the Leader with being a Warp-spawned replacement. This is not a mutiny. We're just acting out of care for the sensitive position of the situation. Understand?" The CPG men nod.
  69. 01[18:59] <@GoldenThrones> "Adalwulf? Who knows about this besides us and Sister Hilda here?"
  70. [18:59] <@Adalwulf> "I only called for her."
  71. 01[19:00] <@GoldenThrones> "Good. Good. Okay, who can help us determine whether the Leader is a Warp-thing or not? The Sister is here. Who else?"
  72. [19:00] <@Jagenzollern> "And Raphaela, who may or may not be on her way as we speak."
  73. [19:01] <@Jagenzollern> "I'd prefer she not have to witness this, naturally."
  74. 01[19:01] <@GoldenThrones> Sarge blinks. "You let his SISTER know, Gandr?"
  75. [19:01] <@Jagenzollern> "No. He just called her this way."
  76. [19:04] <@Adalwulf> "I asked a guard to bring her before this happened so I could get something else out of the way."
  77. 01[19:05] <@GoldenThrones> Sarge glares into Sigismund's eyes, then turns to Adalwulf. "We need to relocate this little party. I don't want to drag his sister into this dungheap. Where's the nearest armory?"
  78. [19:06] <@Adalwulf> "I shall lead the way, Lord Interrogator."
  79. [19:06] <@Adalwulf> "The ship's unique design causes directions to be difficult to give and follow."
  80. 01[19:07] <@GoldenThrones> He shakes his head. "No, you need to do this alone. Get a face-covering helmet and something to mask his voice. We need to control who knows all of this."
  81. [19:08] <@Adalwulf> "Ah, easy enough."
  82. 01[19:09] <@GoldenThrones> One of Sarge's men coughs. "Uh, Sarge? What if he's lying about all of this and trying to get the Leader killed and us framed and-"
  83. 01[19:09] <@GoldenThrones> "Shut up. You have a point though."
  84. [19:10] <@Adalwulf> "Would you rather someone else that has been on ship long enough to know it's layout take care of this?"
  85. 01[19:10] <@GoldenThrones> Sarge taps his chin in thought. "Okay, new plan. Adalwulf, call Father Occadia and anyone else you think is trustworthy and have them come here."
  86. [19:12] <@Adalwulf> "Of course." He bows lightly and taps on his microbead to the officer channel. ++Father Occadia and Master Rasena, please return to Lord Jagenzollern's office.++
  87. 01[19:14] <@GoldenThrones> ++...right, I shall comply.++
  88. [19:15] <@Freddy> ++This better be good. I was close to getting some company tonight!++
  89. 01[19:16] <@GoldenThrones> Sister Vigil chuckles, and waves Freddy off as he heads toward the office.
  90. 01[19:18] <@GoldenThrones> A few minutes later, Freddy arrives at the door to Sigismund's office, and sees the Father standing in front of it. He smirks, "Age before youth, I suppose. Let's see what trouble our psyker friend has gotten himself into."
  91. 06[19:18] * @Freddy fixes his hair "With the way he acts, this is probably nothing BUT trouble."
  92. 01[19:19] <@GoldenThrones> Occadia laughs, then frowns. "Odd, wouldn't there be Praetorians in front of his door? Are they changing shifts?"
  93. 06[19:20] * @Freddy looks around "Are they hiding or something? Probably heard we were coming and went off to shine some boots or something."
  94. 01[19:21] <@GoldenThrones> He shrugs, then presses the 'open' rune on the door. Inside is something of a standoff between Sarge's men and the CPG.
  95. 01[19:21] <@GoldenThrones> "What in the Emperor's divine name?"
  96. 06[19:21] * @Freddy pushes Father aside and draws his own bolt pistol "Hey! What is all this?!"
  97. 01[19:21] <@GoldenThrones> Occadia reels back in horror. "What is the meaning of this?"
  98. 01[19:22] <@GoldenThrones> Sarge smiles at Freddy. "Easy, champ, we're just trying to figure something out. Adalwulf? Care to explain?"
  99. 06[19:23] * @Freddy keeps his gun pointed at Sarge "Hey hey. Is Sigs alright?"
  100. 06[19:23] * @Jagenzollern digs a bottle of bourbon out of his fallen desk and starts looking for intact shot glasses. "Evening, Freddy. Father. I'm alright for the time being."
  101. [19:24] <@Freddy> "You say the word and we leave here right now, man. Just say the word..."
  102. 01[19:24] <@GoldenThrones> Sarge mumbles, "No one aim at Freddy. Don't spook him."
  103. [19:25] <@Adalwulf> "Of course. I was speaking with what I had presumed to be a very distraught Lord Jagenzollern. He began ranting and all about what we were speaking of. I slapped him to attempt to calm him down. He then became a horrible warp spawn, disappeared from existence for a bit and I called for Sister Severus to come to help me deal with this."
  104. 01[19:25] <@GoldenThrones> The neck of the bottle is a bit cracked, but there is one shot glass yet intact. A shake of glass dust from it and it's right as rain."
  105. 01[19:28] <@GoldenThrones> Father Occadia reels back. "This is... Gandr, you had something to do with this, didn't you? You miserable psyker, the Leader never should have trusted you with his armed forces! What did you do?"
  106. 06[19:29] * @Freddy keeps looking around the room "I think i'd notice if Sigs wasn't himself."
  107. [19:29] <@Adalwulf> "I did nothing. My power is over fire only and I seek only to serve the Emperor!"
  108. 06[19:29] * @Jagenzollern points at Father Occadia and Freddy "There you are! Two reasonable men making the conclusion that the man with reality-warping power was in fact the one who warped reality."
  109. 01[19:31] <@GoldenThrones> "Really. Throwing knives about, knocking his desk over, making sweeping changes to the status-quo, and, if Gandr's testimony is to be trusted, ranting, transforming, and vanishing into nothingness is 'normal' to you?"
  110. [19:32] <@Freddy> "...Ok so you are saying that this isn't Sigs?"
  111. [19:32] <@Adalwulf> "If he is, Master Frederick, then he has been possessed by the dark beings that inhabit the warp."
  112. 01[19:34] <@GoldenThrones> Father Occadia walks meekly into the room. "We've only transitioned just now. Such a short window of time... it's unheard of if the Gellar Field functions as normal."
  113. [19:34] <@Jagenzollern> "It's not normal behavior, but the circumstances aren't normal. There is a cult or perhaps two aboard my ship and my Enginseer Prime has been keeping vital information from it!" Sigismund protests.
  114. [19:34] <@Jagenzollern> *from me
  115. 06[19:34] * @Freddy keeps his bolt pistol out and moves to Sigismund's side "Look, I agree with you. You sure you are...well you?"
  116. 01[19:35] <@GoldenThrones> Sarge frowns. "Maybe two hours since..."
  117. [19:35] <@Jagenzollern> "One hundred percent" Sigismund nods, taking a shot of bourbon.
  118. [19:36] <@Freddy> "...Alright just answer me something. I want to make sure."
  119. 01[19:36] <@GoldenThrones> One of Sarge's uglier, shorter men smirks. "See, th' Leader thinks there's two cults on th' ship, why does no one pay me any mind?"
  120. 01[19:38] <@GoldenThrones> One of the other ones hisses, "Not the time, Stumps."
  121. [19:38] <@Freddy> "How did I win the last race where you met me? If you can answer that I know it is you because I only ever told you."
  122. 06[19:40] * @Jagenzollern pours a shot for Freddy "You won the race, but your flyer didn't come out of it intact. In the end you never got money that you wagered."
  123. [19:41] <@Freddy> "That's good enough for me."
  124. 01[19:42] <@GoldenThrones> Sarge looks at Adalwulf askance. "Gandr, I want you to be one-hundred percent clear. Tell me EXACTLY what you saw. What did you see?"
  125. 01[19:43] <@GoldenThrones> The CPG tighten their grips on their guns, expecting things to go coreward in moments.
  126. 06[19:44] * @Freddy takes the shot and drinks it down
  127. [19:46] <@Adalwulf> "As said, during his ranting, I slapped him to help him gather himself. He recoiled and looked at me. Then his pupils disappeared and his eyes turned purple. His nails and mouth began changing and emitting purple smoke."
  128. [19:47] <@Adalwulf> "And then he disappeared til he returned on his knees in a loud crack and horrible laughter."
  129. 01[19:48] <@GoldenThrones> Sarge looks at Sigismund. "Your rebuttal?"
  130. [19:52] <@Jagenzollern> "He seems to speak truly- I saw my nails change and the smoke myself" He pauses. "The smoke was more indigo, but he's not an artist like me so I'm not surprised he made the distinction" Sigismund half-boasts.
  131. [19:52] <@Jagenzollern> "While it did happen, I'm simply not a daemon. HE was the one who prompted this transformation and I said as such the very moment it happened. A fact he conveniently left out."
  132. [19:56] <@Adalwulf> "The foul creature even confirms his inhuman change!"
  133. 01[19:57] <@GoldenThrones> Sarge stares Sigismund in the eyes for a moment, then turns to look at Adalwulf. The psyker. "Yes, but he brings up a good point. You are a psyker. How do we know this isn't just some poor-minded attempt to fool us?"
  134. [19:58] <@Adalwulf> "Lord Interrogator, my power is over fire. I cannot even bring about the illusion of such a change."
  135. 01[19:58] <@GoldenThrones> Occadia howls out "A likely story!"
  136. [20:00] <@Adalwulf> "Of course, my words fall on deaf ears if I am to defend myself from those who see just a psyker and go 'kill all the psykers, they are evil heretics'."
  137. [20:02] <@Adalwulf> "And I cannot defend myself using my power to sense warp presence."
  138. 01[20:03] <@GoldenThrones> Sarge looks between Sigismund and Adalwulf, and looks at his rifle. "...dammit, I just... wait, what do your warp senses tell you? You said nothing of that yet."
  139. [20:04] <@Adalwulf> "I have said nothing because I am the accuser. As such my word is liable to suspect in such a case. But if you wish to know." He closes his eyes and focuses.
  140. 01[20:05] <@GoldenThrones> Sister Severus spends her time making slight clicking noises with her tongue, herself hastily armed with a lasgun.
  141. 01[20:11] <@GoldenThrones> The moments pass painfully slow.
  142. [20:14] <@Adalwulf> "I... that... unexpected." He slumps a bit, rubbing his head. "Mein Lord, I apologize. You know what I saw and I reacted as many would in such a situation. But there is still bad news. What happened was not my doing, but perhaps your own. You are at least a latent psyker."
  143. 01[20:15] <@GoldenThrones> Occadia gasps.
  144. [20:15] <@Freddy> "I"m...i'm gonna need another shot."
  145. 06[20:16] * @Jagenzollern glances at Occadia and Freddy "What, so suddenly his word is gold? Because the sense that only he has says one of the handful of things that don't result in him being shot?"
  146. [20:18] <@Adalwulf> "I can say only what I have learned since I was told to do so, Mein Lord."
  147. [20:18] <@Freddy> "Tch. Look the big guy is trying to save his own skin but I mean he cares about you almost as much as myself."
  148. [20:18] <@Freddy> "Worst...what if it is true?"
  149. 01[20:18] <@GoldenThrones> Sarge levels his weapon toward Sigismund. "Is he telling the truth? Are you a psyker?"
  150. [20:20] <@Jagenzollern> "Absolutely not. The notion is laughable."
  151. 06[20:20] * @Freddy points his back at Sarge "Hey I said what if! We still only got his word to go on."
  152. 01[20:20] <@GoldenThrones> Occadia looks back and forth between Sigismund and Adalwulf. "F-forgive me, Lord Jägenzollern, I was just shocked by his charge. Are... he does lie, does he not?"
  153. 01[20:29] <@GoldenThrones> Sigismund's voice is unwavering and certain. All it takes is a confident look from Sigismund and Occcadia calms back down. "Of course he lies. The psyker lies, to save his own skin! He shares the stigma freely, so that others might be as disgraced as he! I should have known right away... you coward. You damnable mutant VERMIN!"
  154. 01[20:31] <@GoldenThrones> Sister Severus turns her lasgun to Adalwulf now. She seems convinced. "Well well, Can't say I saw this coming. Calling on me, only to have me bring your execution squad."
  155. 01[20:33] <@GoldenThrones> The CPG men, with looks of pity, turn to face their guns at Adalwulf. "We... no. Sorry, sir."
  156. [20:34] <@Freddy> "Man this shit is just all messed up. I can't believe that you'd do it big guy..."
  157. 06[20:35] * @Jagenzollern takes another shot.
  158. [20:35] <@Adalwulf> "Master Frederick, I have spoken only what I have seen. I cannot defend myself in this matter since it's an ability that only myself and Lord Jagenzollern could use>"
  159. [20:36] <@Adalwulf> "And his power is hidden deep in his soul."
  160. [20:36] <@Freddy> "...nah nah this just aint right. I just can't believe this man."
  161. 01[20:36] <@GoldenThrones> Sarge bodily turns to face Adalwulf. "Save your breath. Lord Jägenzollern, while I have my misgivings about this, you are the Imperial law aboard this ship. What shall we do with him?"
  162. [20:37] <@Freddy> "He can't be a psyker but I also just don't see you fucking with Sigs."
  163. [20:37] <@Adalwulf> "The only other known psykers are the Astropathic Choir."
  164. [20:38] <@Jagenzollern> "Take him captive, place him in maximum security in the brig under heavy guard."
  165. [20:39] <@Freddy> "Guess you are in charge of security for now Sigs..."
  166. 01[20:40] <@GoldenThrones> Sarge nods. He then turns partway to face Sigismund. "By the way, you, and he, are two of the only people who know about the Inquisition aboard this vessel. We'll do our part to keep it quiet, alright /sir/?"
  167. [20:43] <@Jagenzollern> "Knowledge is power; guard it well" Sigismund says blankly.
  168. [20:43] <@Adalwulf> "Master Frederick, would you please do me the favor of keeping my weapons in good condition and making sure they are not just tossed somewhere? And that the men do not drop their training schedule. It is rather difficult to keep them in line at times. Apologize to the Lady Karolina, but she will have to deal with you training her." He clasps his hands behind his back.
  169. 06[20:44] * @Jagenzollern glances at Freddy "...Train Karolina?"
  170. 01[20:46] <@GoldenThrones> Sarge thinks for a moment, then smirks. "By the way, Leader, someone will need to take over command of the CPG and the organization of the armed forces. If I may be so bold, I'd like to nominate myself for that particular duty. I have experience leading ground forces into combat, after all, and my men have done the most work on the cult situation thus far."
  171. [20:46] <@Adalwulf> "She did request to learn how to shoot and was scheduled to learn with the guardsmen."
  172. 06[20:46] * @Freddy quickly puts his hands up "Literally just shooting practice! Honest!"
  173. 06[20:47] * @Freddy nods to Adalwulf "And yeah don't worry about it...Man I want to believe you but at the same time I don't, ya dig?"
  174. [20:47] <@Adalwulf> "Emperor will see things done as he wills it."
  175. [20:53] <@Jagenzollern> "Sarge..." Sigismund groans "I'm happy that you've helped us resolve this situation, truly! But you are one of three of my officers that turned out to have been lying to me today. I'm not saying you're untrustworthy, but this is a lot to take in all at once."
  176. [20:54] <@Jagenzollern> "I need to sleep. I'm having trust issues. Freddy is charge in the meantime."
  177. [20:54] <@Freddy> "You got it."
  178. 01[20:56] <@GoldenThrones> Sarge smirks yet, but he nods. "You've got it, sir. Just trying to remind you who your friends are."
  179. [20:56] <@Freddy> "Hey he's got plenty of friends."
  180. 06[20:57] * @Adalwulf coughs. "Master Frederick, as head of security, you should disarm me of my weapons now."
  181. 01[20:57] <@GoldenThrones> Sarge then motions for the two CPG men to come with. They look at Freddy, then decide to leave Sigismund's protection to Freddy and the next shift.
  182. 06[20:57] * @Freddy looks at the guards "The fuck are you waiting for? Hop to it and get the prisoner stripped of all arms and put 'em in the brig."
  183. 01[20:58] <@GoldenThrones> ""Yessir.""
  184. [20:59] <@Freddy> "Also get me all the vox codes and the commander's names. Need to know who i'm talking to ya know?"
  185. 01[21:02] <@GoldenThrones> The CPG men follow Adalwulf, trailed by Sarge and his men. Severus stays behind, hungrily looking at Adalwulf's Inferno Pistol.
  186. 06[21:03] * @Freddy sweeps up all the equipment "Not a chance, Sister. I'm a man of my word, ya dig?"
  187. 01[21:16] <@GoldenThrones> The trip to the brig is spent mostly in silence. The wardens let Sarge go in without a word to the dark hallway lined with heavy steel doors. The atmosphere is heavy.
  188. 01[21:17] <@GoldenThrones> Eventually, they reach the end of the hallway. The door is open.
  189. 06[21:17] * @Adalwulf just follows the Sergeant in, hands still behind his back.
  190. 01[21:18] <@GoldenThrones> "This is your new home for the time being, Adalwulf. I have to say, it's a damn shame. I didn't really see this coming."
  191. [21:19] <@Adalwulf> "Of course not. I did not figure he'd be a latent psyker either."
  192. 01[21:19] <@GoldenThrones> Sarge chuckles. "Right, that. You can drop the act now. Show's over, you've lost."
  193. [21:20] <@Adalwulf> "Sergeant, let me ask you something." He straightens slightly. "Tell me, why is it that as the accuser, my word is 'not valid as proof' but his word as defender of 'he's lying' is an infallible defense?"
  194. 01[21:24] <@GoldenThrones> Sarge thinks for a moment. "...logically, what you're saying is valid. But you were put on the ropes there, and... hmm. Well, I guess it was because he managed to convince me that the whole thing was too ridiculous for words. That it couldn't possibly be true."
  195. 01[21:26] <@GoldenThrones> "...shit, that makes me sound kind of weak willed. Look, just go into your cell. This isn't done, not by a long shot. Things like this can't just end on the spot, and there's a bunch of witnesses. We'll keep our ears open for anything, and I mean ANYTHING that happens to any of them."
  196. 01[21:27] <@GoldenThrones> He motions at the cell. "But in the meantime, your home awaits. Nine hots and a cot."
  197. [21:27] <@Adalwulf> "I did mention that my own testimony through the use of my powers would be seen as invalid." He steps into the cell. "And I was proven right. Ah well, I have done what I can for the Imperium and the Dynasty. It has been an honor, Lord Interrogator, to speak with you. I am not certain how much time is left that I can speak with you again. It is likely that someone will come to see me...
  198. [21:27] <@Adalwulf> ...'removed', even if it is just due to my unfortunate status."
  199. 01[21:28] <@GoldenThrones> Stumpy says, "'ey boss, you got th' saying wrong. 't's 'three hots an' a cot.'"
  200. 01[21:29] <@GoldenThrones> Sarge smiles. "Nah, I got it right. I didn't tell anyone the other part of the plan. Lads?"
  201. 01[21:30] <@GoldenThrones> Sarge raises his gun at the CPG men, and the rest of his squad follows suit. The CPG freeze, shocked at this turn of events, but don't raise their guns.
  202. 01[21:30] <@GoldenThrones> "Drop them."
  203. 06[21:31] * @Adalwulf just raises a brow. "I don't suppose you're going to inform us what you're planning here? Because I don't particularly take kindly to you threatening these men."
  204. 01[21:32] <@GoldenThrones> A few seconds later, the CPG are relieved of their weapons and voxes. "Well, I've decided to give you some cellmates, Adalwulf." His smile drops some. "I want you to convince these men, who'll be bunking with you, that you're telling the truth. I have some sway down here, so food won't be a problem. You're their former boss. If you can convince them that you weren't just lying back their, I'll take you a little more seriously."
  205. 01[21:33] <@GoldenThrones> *back there
  206. [21:35] <@Adalwulf> "I find your manners horrific. As much as I know my words for truth, I do not wish to impose false imprisonment on others to make you believe them. Order them to charge greenskin lines for the glory of the Imperium, yes, but never false imprisonment."
  207. 01[21:36] <@GoldenThrones> Sarge chuckles. "They raised their weapons against their own superior officer and an agent of the Golden Throne. I'd hardly call this 'false imprisonment.' I'm just borrowing the Leader's cell block."
  208. [21:37] <@Adalwulf> "They did so reasonably with the information they had to work with at the time." He glares down at the man. "I commend them for their discipline."
  209. 01[21:39] <@GoldenThrones> "And continued to do so after having been told the truth of the matter. Just get in the cell, Gandr. I'm doing you a favor here. Assuming they don't try to kick your ass or something."
  210. 06[21:39] * @Adalwulf is already in the cell, but moves further away from the door.
  211. 01[21:40] <@GoldenThrones> The two men look at each other and sigh. "Sir... no, Ada-... sir, it's fine. At least they're not executing us."
  212. 01[21:41] <@GoldenThrones> They move slowly into the cell at gunpoint, then the doors buzz and close.
  213. [21:42] <@Adalwulf> "I am no longer an officer on this ship, as such I do not expect you to treat me as such."
  214. 01[21:42] <@GoldenThrones> Sarge looks in through the barred viewport. "And by the by, it would behoove you two not to kill Adalwulf. Or leave the cell until I give the okay. Or go saying unneccesary things to people who don't know them."
  215. 01[21:43] <@GoldenThrones> The two just nod at Sarge then ignore him. "Old habits die hard, sir."
  216. 06[21:43] * @Adalwulf just looks around the cell, taking stock of what is in it besides perhaps a bed and a bedpan.
  217. [21:44] <@Adalwulf> "It is your choice."
  218. 01[21:45] <@GoldenThrones> There's a sink, rune-activated, a bed of raised rockrete and a simple blanket and pillow. The toilet is also rune-activated.
  219. 01[21:45] <@GoldenThrones> This is home, for now.
  220. 06[21:47] * @Adalwulf just moves and takes a seat against the wall by the door. "If you have any questions, I'll answer them, but I do not know how I would 'convince' you that I spoke only truth if I have not yet."
  221. 01[21:48] <@GoldenThrones> The hallway to Sigismund's room is rather tastefully decorated; many a maiden (or former maiden) pass through these halls to come to the doors just a few dozen meters away. Father Occadia huffs slightly as he plays catch-up with Sigismund and Freddy on their way to his room.
  222. 01[21:52] <@GoldenThrones> The way there is quiet, but eventually it's interrupted by loud running footsteps.
  223. 06[21:52] * @Freddy puts a hand on his weapon and turns to the footsteps
  224. 06[21:53] * @Jagenzollern wearily turns to acknowledge whoever it is that's coming toward them.
  225. 01[21:53] <@GoldenThrones> That CPG from before has come running back. "Sir! My Leader, oh, finally found you. Our men weren't able to find Raphaela in a timely manner, and with all of the viewports closed, we're not sure where to look."
  226. 06[21:58] * @Jagenzollern groans "I'm glad you didn't get her to my office, but she can't be wandering about with traitors and cults stalking our gangways. Tell me you checked her room and radioed for her at least?"
  227. [21:59] <@Jagenzollern> *voxed
  228. 01[22:00] <@GoldenThrones> "Of course sir... do you still want us to summon her to you?"
  229. 06[22:00] * @Jagenzollern looks over his shoulder, just in case.
  230. [22:00] <@Jagenzollern> "Ah...yes! Yes, absolutely!"
  231. 01[22:01] <@GoldenThrones> There's naught there but more hallway.
  232. 01[22:02] <@GoldenThrones> The group finally reaches Sigismund's door. The CPG salutes and runs off to execute his order.
  233. 01[22:03] <@GoldenThrones> Father Occadia raises his hand hesitantly, then coughs. "Er, my Leader, just on the side of safety, would you like a blessing of the Emperor? Things have been... stressful, to say the least."
  234. 06[22:04] * @Jagenzollern grabs hold of the handle and begins to pull the door opening, stopping as Occadia speaks.
  235. [22:04] <@Jagenzollern> "Yes, Father, it could only help."
  236. 06[22:05] * @Jagenzollern eyes the vent momentarily.
  237. 01[22:08] <@GoldenThrones> Father Occadia puts his hands up and walks to Sigismund, and gently places his hands on Sigismund's brow. He slowly chants in High Gothic. "[In the divine name of the God-Emperor of Man, may all praise and glory be to him and His servants, let all influence of the Ruinous Powers and the Warp flee this humble servant of His will. May he continue to do the Emperor's will in word and deed. May he be protected from the grasp of the Great Enemy. Hail, God-Emperor.]"
  238. 01[22:08] <@GoldenThrones> CLANK. Clank. Clank. Clankclankclank.
  239. 01[22:09] <@GoldenThrones> The vent makes the horrid clanking noise, which seems all the louder in this tender moement of reprieve and under the frayed nerves of those present.
  240. 06[22:10] * @Jagenzollern smiles, willing to cling to whatever reassurance he can get at the moment. "Thank you, Father." He winces as the clanking gets louder "Though the peanut gallery disapproves."
  241. [22:11] <@Jagenzollern> "...Though I just realized that this gives us the opportunity for an interesting theological experiment."
  242. 06[22:11] * @Jagenzollern leans toward the vent "Praise the *Omnissiah*."
  243. 01[22:12] <@GoldenThrones> ...
  244. [22:13] <@Jagenzollern> "Hmph. Well draw whatever conclusion you will from that."
  245. [22:14] <@Freddy> "Fucking bias ass cultists, am I right?"
  246. 06[22:16] * @Jagenzollern finally wrenches open the door to his chamber "Goodnight gentlemen. Thank you for your support tonight, I won't soon forget it."
  247. 01[22:16] <@GoldenThrones> Occadia snorts. "Cult of the Machine, no doubt. You can't tell who to trust anymore."
  248. [22:16] <@Freddy> "You know how to get a hold of me."
  249. [22:16] <@Freddy> "Come on Father. Poor guy needs his rest."
  250. 01[22:17] <@GoldenThrones> Occadia deflates. "Yes, of course. If you'd be so kind, Maste rRasenna? I am feeling rather exhausted too."
  251. [22:17] <@Freddy> "Yeah I got you."
  252. 06[22:18] * @Freddy gets on the vox ++Hey I need the patrols that run through the Lord Captain's area to be doubled until further notice.++
  253. 01[22:19] <@GoldenThrones> ++Yes Master... wait, why are you ordering us? CPG dispatches can only be altered by Master Gandr.++
  254. [22:21] <@Freddy> ++Yeah well also until further notice, Everyone reports Master Rasenna now. I've been given command by the Lord Captain himself so I don't want any lip. Just hop to it.++
  255. 01[22:22] <@GoldenThrones> ++...yessir.++
  256. 01[22:27] <@GoldenThrones> A few hours later, Sigismund is significantly better rested, people are panicking and/or patently offended, the ship is still in one piece and also in the Warp, and...
  257. 01[22:28] <@GoldenThrones> "What do you mean, 'you can't find' the Leader's younger sister? Where is she?"
  258. 01[22:30] <@GoldenThrones> A group of Abwehr agents and CPG are grumbling amonst themselves, arguing the finer points of inter-office cooperation in earshot of one Viktoria Winter.
  259. 01[22:31] <@GoldenThrones> One comes up to her and asks, point-blank. "We understand you spend most of your time in Enginseering, ma'am, but have you seen Raphaela Jägenzollern?"
  260. [22:32] <@Viktoria_> "No? Did the Captain request her presence?"
  261. 01[22:34] <@GoldenThrones> "Yes ma'am, but that was originally on the CPG, and they just can'[t find her, and now WE'RE looking for her, and WE can't find her. And WE do not want to have to tell our boss that her daughter is missing, so if you have any clue, it would be greatly appreciated."
  262. [22:36] <@Viktoria_> "The sister to the captain does not just go missing in a ship." Victoria sighs.
  263. [22:36] <@Viktoria_> "Omnissiah save us, are you sure you cannot find her? Where was she last reported seen?"
  264. 01[22:38] <@GoldenThrones> "Last we checked, she was in her room, maybe five hours ago. She must have slipped away."
  265. 01[22:39] <@GoldenThrones> "She might have went to someplace with void glass so she could see out of the ship. Beyond that, we have no clue. Lots of placed with void glass."
  266. [22:40] <@Viktoria_> "Then search there, crewman." Viktoria states, irritation clear in her tone. "Now if you'll excuse me, I have much more pressing business to attend to."
