[indent][indent]"Reentering real space sir!" In accordance with their agreement, Karthis had agreed to assist Gregori in his newest conquest to secure his holdings. From what he had gathered, a large chaos incursion was happening on a Forge World called "Amatheus"; it didn't take a genius to realize what the forces of the fallen could do with the industrial might of such a planet, even if it was but a humble "forge moon".

"All weapon crews are ready on standby!"
"Garrisons have been deployed, ships now in lockdown against boarding actions!"
“Reserves are awaiting tasking!”
"Fighters are warming up, ready for deployment!"
"Automated defense servitors are online!"
“All churches have begun prayer service!”
“Architeks are on stand by for repair and resupply!”
“House Albnorn awaits your command sir!”
“Engines and generates at optimal capacity, power levels stable!”
“Purity seals and wards have been reapplied!”
“Fleet ships report they have entered real space and are at the ready!”
“All systems await your command milord, our will is at your command.”

Karthis smiled, it was showtime, “This is the Lord Regent speaking!” His voice boomed across the Ark, “Ready yourselves, combat is upon us! Imperium Aeturnum!”

With an eldritch blast, the Ark Imperialis burst out of the Warp, perhaps a little too close to the enemy fleet but ready none the less. A sole strike cruiser, foolish enough to be near the space hulk when exited the war found itself torn asunder and shattered upon impact, dwarfed by the might of what was now surely the largest ship in the Imperium Reborn’s fleet.

Taking initiative, Karthis was already sending his ships forward into the fray. It might not have been Gregori’s original plan, but Karthis wasn’t about to let him take all the glory. Besides, the sudden chaos of a space hulk appearing with a supporting fleet had clearly thrown the heretic fleet into disarray, understandably not expecting something of such size attacking them. With any luck, Gregori would have his ships take advantage of this very successful shock attack.

Broadcasting across all open vox channels, Karthis delivered an ultimatum to the Chaos Fleet: 

[quote][i]“Attention, slaves of Chaos, you end is nigh! You shall be crushed under the foot of the Ark Imperialis and the holy armada of Emperor Gregori! Breath your last breath, traitors, for your void-bound graves shall give you none! In the name of the Emperor, let none of you survive! In the name of all of mankind, you heretics SHALL be PURGED!”[/i][/quote]
