The Scramble for the Gin

"Come on now Girls!" Seamus shouted loudly over his shoulder, "The Prize is just up ahead!  Whole barrels of Soul Gin my lovelies, now doesn't that sound like a party?"
"A Party! A Party!" squealed his diminutive copycat as it dragged it's flintlock along two handed, the barrel leaving a groove in the dust of the dry trail into the Gremlin village.
The Belles however said nothing, not even a groan as they shambled along in Seamus' wake.

Malechta's Treatise upon the Line of Saro.

Fifty Third Volume, Chapter Twenty Four

In the previous chapter I wrote of the end of the battle of Pilgrims and the return of the Seleucaemi Treasurer to realspace. However there were still further trials to fall upon the shoulders of Talis Saro.

No sooner had the ship returned to real space it was rocked by a huge impact, as the ship was struck bodily by another object. The damage already wrought on the ship was as nothing compared to the damage which now occurred, the engines of the treasurer were smashed to flinders by the impact, and many other sections were destroyed.

Malechta's Treatise upon the Line of Saro.

Fifty Third Volume, Chapter Twenty Three

In the previous chapter I wrote of the beginning of the conflict that in later annals became known as the battle of the Pilgrims. The end of the battle however bears closer examination.

There were still a number of the Daemonic Foes in combat around the Pilgrims however under the watchful eye of Talis Saro, Macharius the First Officer, and the Master at arms Ichigo placed their fire-power against them. Two of the Warp entities were slain in a hail of holy bolter shells, one dying as it's head was destroyed and another having the muscles of it's chest blown from it's body and expiring from the leaking of it's vital fluids. Such was the skill of the people under Talis Saro's command, chosen with great care by his own hand. Talis himself fired upon another one, striking it with the Plasma pistol that was to have so great a place in his mythology, and catching the warp tainted flesh of the beast afire with cleansing fire, and causing the beast to shriek in pain. Not for long however as his Enginseer prime put the creature down, a burst of bolter shells tearing it's leg off as calculated by her enhanced mind.

The Hammer-blow

Epistolary Raven stood in the Teleportarium of the Strike Cruiser "Vengeance from on High" and relaxed his mind. Around him were gathered the members of the squad of Terminators that Commander Helios' battle-plan called for, their Lightening claws and Thunder Hammers destined to strike at the strongest part of the battle line in a tactic Helios had called the Hammer-blow

Malechta's Treatise upon the Line of Saro. Part 1

Fifty Third Volume, Chapter Twenty Two.

In the previous chapter we discussed the genetic malfeasance that was prevalent in the Line Saro's greatest rivals the O'Verlan Clan. The animosity between the two lines was by this time exceedingly warm, with almost constant combat between the lines themselves and their proxies. With the Line of Saro's discovery of the of the unholy taint in the O'Verlan genetic and the seizing of the evidence of this taint the response from their Ancestral enemies was both vigorous and overwhelming.
