For a moment, Celestian Superior Andromedai Morgenstern stood alone in hanger Four-Two-Seven-Three-Three along side her ship. The lack of any conversation or there of was filled by the Empherian's soft ambient hum, one that she had found strangely comforting after spending many years aboard such starships. Even though Andromedai was currently alone, she was not idol. The Celestian looked over the data-pad that was built into the left forearm of her armor, enabling to her to draw information from almost anything around her at a whim. While the HUD built into her helmet could do the same, doing so at this moment was unnecessary. Currently, the data-pad displayed information about the changes made upon the Typhon, and other crucial details. There would be no second chances, and no returning to the Empherian for an unknown amount of time, and thus all systems and equipment being brought along was double or even triple checked. Celestian Superior Andromedai was still looking over the information of her ship and its equipment when the first member of the retinue arrived rather promptly. [color=00aeef]"Alexei Stukov, prompt and professional as usual."[/color] said Celestian Andromedai with a slight nod of her head. [color=00aeef]"I expect the others to arrive shortly, once they do, we will head out immediately."[/color]The next to arrive was their sanctioned Psyker, Adrianne. The rather tall woman would receive the same greeting that Stukov had, [color=00aeef]"Welcome Adrianne, I was just informing Stukov that once the other members of the retinue arrive, we will board the Typhon and depart for Erathell."[/color] Celestian Andromedai turned to face the Typhon as she queued a command for the ships airlock to open for them. The arrival of Tech-Priestess could be easily heard before she was even seen, [color=00aeef]"Tech-Priestess Medaira, you are the final member of the retinue to arrive."[/color] said Celestian Andromedai with a nod of her head in acknowledgement to the woman. [color=00aeef]"I do believe that all members of the retinue are currently present, let us...[/color] before Celestian Andromedai could finish her sentence, another arrival entered the hanger, one that Celestian Andromedai had not been expecting. This new arrival appeared to be a Scribe, yet Andromedai had not requested one. Once the man had introduced himself, Celestian Andromedai would approach him and merely observe the new addition silently before speaking. [color=00aeef]Scribe Titus, I did not request one of your kind to accompany me on this mission."[/color] The Celestian looked over her information for the mission and saw that there had been a last minute change, the addition of this Scribe. [color=00aeef]Apparently, you [i]have[/i] been assigned to my retinue, though for what reason is beyond my current understanding. Follow the rest of the retinue Titus.[/color] Celestian Andromedai would turn her back to the unexpected arrival before walking up the ramp and into the Typhons airlock. The Typhon was a custom ship designed and produced specifically for Celestian Andromedai. Unlike other starships, this craft was sleek and luxurious, both on the exterior and interior, a far cry from other ships in the Imperium of man. Along side the obvious cockpit, the interior of the Typhon had an armory, a living quarters installed with a kitchen, personal and enclosed bunks, two shower and bathroom stalls, a medical bay, engineering bay, a command room, and other essential areas. Once Andromedai had entered the cockpit, she would take the pilots seat and secure herself into it before speaking. [color=00aeef]"Psyker Adrianne, take the co-pilot seat with me, controls are free to use if you sense any disturbances."[/color] There would be no time wasted, once everyone had sat down and secured themselves in their seats, Andromedai would quickly but skillfully enable the starships systems before gracefully maneuvering it out of hangar Four-Two-Seven-Three-Three and towards the now rapidly approaching Erathell. [color=00aeef]"I have already briefed all of you, expect Scribe Titus, on the situation at hand."[/color] began Celestian Andromedai. [color=00aeef]"Though for the sake of the mission and all of your lives, I will repeat it. Two weeks ago, the head planetary Governor for Erathell sent an encrypted message to the Inquisition, this message informed us that he suspects that Chaos forces have infiltrated the Hyperion system. After providing us with sufficient evidence, it has been decided that these chaos infiltrators are most likely part of Slaanesh or Tzeentch, though I suspect both of them are playing their hand here. I was also informed that it is possible that these agents of Chaos have also replaced high ranking, important figures. The planetary Governor, who we refer to as Nickoli, has requested our discrete presence upon Erathell and others within Hyperion to root out the chaos infiltrators before they can cause irreparable harm. A short and simple explanation, I know, though nothing more needs to be added at this time. I am, however, allowing any questions that the retinue may have to be asked."[/color] In the distance, Erathell could now be seen, a small ball of blue light that was growing in shape and size as they neared their first destination.
