-----A Very Secret Meeting----

[Bruce Malcom]

Fabricator General Witmus walked down a hallway within his Forge World. He was the Fabricator General of the Vector Royalists, perhaps the most renegade one could get without being declared heretics and being cast from the Imperium. While his methods aren't exactly the most caring and sound, his mission is understandable and even praiseworthy; he will use his resource, as an incredibly well-oiled Forge World, to face the enemies of man within the Dark Imperium, and save whatever they can.

 

The Fabricator General entered a large room. It was dully lit, and there was Mechanicus symbols plastered all across the walls. There was also a meeting table in the very center of the room.

 

Suddenly, the doors opened and in strolled an Astartes. He was clad in a cloak, but Mark IV armor could be easily seen underneath, as well as a bolt pistol. The armor was painted and marked with the heraldry of the Imperial Fists, however it was so scratched and hasn't had a proper fix in quite a while, to the point where barely any yellow remained.

 

The Fabricator General responded. "Chapter-Master...I could always have my Magi fix up that armor of yours. Al you needed to do was ask."

 

The Chapter Master had a soft chuckle. "Friend, those resources are better spent on someone else. You know I don't fight that much any more, right?"

 

The door opened again, and both leaders turned to see who it was. There were two people this time, one a Sister of Battle with heavy modifications and Mechanicus liverly, and the other a Lord Commander of the Astra Millitarium, with an arm replaced with something more akin to a Skitarii limb.

 

"Lord Commander Venkins and Caroness Bairnes, what a pleasure to see you all again!" The Fabricator General said with as much emotions as he could.

 

The Chapter Master groaned. "Fabricator General, with all due respect, we all know your lackeys have no power in the Mornival you have set up here."

 

The Caroness moved with quick speed, to the point where even the Chapter Master of the Revenant Fists had trouble keeping up.

 

She yelled in his face, with fury only capable of a Sister of Battle. "Do not DISRESPECT the SISTERS SKITARII!" The Fabricator General motioned towards her to take a seat, like they (and The Lord Commander) had. She does so, obviously still fuming.

 

The Lord Commander let out a small cough, trying to shift the focus away from that mishap. "So, who else do we wait for?"

 

The Chapter Master answered smoothly, "Chapter Master Sejanus of the Imperial Shields, and Chapter Master Validor of the Banished Brigade."

 

The Fabricator General shook his head. "Unfortunately Validor and Sejanus will be unable to join us today. They are currently deployed elsewhere. Now, to address the issues I have all called you here for. As our pact here states, each of us gets a vote on the issues at hand."

 

The Chapter Master glared. The Fabricator General's lackeys will obviously agree with whatever he says, so why even bother?

 

The Fabricator General started. "The campaign at Lornage was a success, at the cost of a handful of some of the Shield's Reivers. Do we move our forces up from Lornage to Vonna II, where the Tau are sending their fleets?"

 

The Chapter Master responded quickly. "It is unethical to decide the actions of a Chapter while they are not here, and you know it!"

 

The Fabricator General replied coldly. "It's not our fault that they were unable to attend."

 

The Chapter Master stood. "I refuse to let you decide the actions of another Chapter, without at least a representative here."

 

Finally, the door opened once more and two Astartes entered the room. One was clad in a black and red Mark X Tacticus set of power armor, and the other wore Mark X Phobos in a yellow and silver color scheme.

 

The Fabricator General stood to greet them. "Hello, Captain Validor! It is always a pleasure to see you," he then turned to the Reiver, "and we have a recent war hero with us as well! Welcome, Revier Lieutenant Dobbman!"

 

As the minor issues passed, and decisions were made, the Revenant Fists Chapter Master could not help but feel...betrayed by the Fabricator General. Had he not shown up, the Imperial Shields would've been thrown at the Tau without warning and even his chapter would've been sent into a misson that's more suited towards the Imperial Shields. Validor, ever the voice of reason and heart, expressed his concerns and saved countless Astartes with his votes and side-switching points and arguments. He could be trusted.

 

After the meeting was over and the Chapter-Masters were sent back to their ships, the Revenant Fists Chapter Master sent a Vox communication to Captain Validor.

 

"Captain Validor, thank you for arriving at the meeting. I feel your actions have saved a good portion of my Astartes. While we may not see eye-to-eye on most things, especially the Creed vs Truth debate, I do wish to express concerns of mine, in person. Please meet me at Revival Palace as soon as possible."

Your off to a good start. I find it strange the Sister of Battle describes her force as "Sisters Skitarii" instead of "Skitarii" (note I omitted the reference to gender, which an AdMech member will likely feel is unnecessary beyond the subject of sexual reproduction) or "sisters of the Order of [insert name]" (this time, I included a reference to her Order, which a human would feel proud to be a member of, if its name was so illustrious, she would feel insulted if someone underestimated its members).

That would be true, but they belong to no Order but they have no been completely converted to the AdMech so they struck a compromise; that being Sister Skitarii.

If these Sisters are no longer members of their original Order, they might as well found a new Order for themselves.
