[@BCTheEntity] Some things of note;

1.) They're in the armory. It's got tanks in it, and there are guns hanging from the ceiling. It's very obvious. The space marines and Vespin are on a catwalk, about the height of a normal room above the floor below, where Oskar is.

2.) The only people besides Vespin and Oskar in the room with the space marines are all ratlings who very clearly take orders from Vespin. The ratlings all have weapons, and are on the floor of the armory below the catwalk, ready to shoot Oskar.

3.) Lucian has yet to see or hear about anything that happened in the prison, save that everyone who escaped is now lying outside dead, dying, or wounded to the point of needing medical help. They were made that way by the aforementioned ratlings.

4.) Vespin, the ratling whom Lucian seems to think so poorly of, currently has an anti-tank weapon trained on him. Xeph's techmarine armor wouldn't save him from a well-placed round from that gun. Lucian would literally have his chest turned into paste by the first shot.

5.) It is not wise to try and assert your authority over someone who just gave the order to have his direct, and much higher ranking superior murdered right in front of you, only to then offer you a part in his bid to mutiny.

If there are any changes you would like to make to your post before I offer a reply, I'd be happy to wait.
