      Moments later, a shout, full of bloody fury shook the galaxy, a warp storm engulfed some poor system. Confused, the Grandmaster asks for visuals on the source of the disruption. Techmarine and Librarian alike scramble to hook up an ancient scrying device, that pops on.
      The Supreme Grandmaster is puzzled for a moment, requiring several seconds to process what is happening. The scene is aboard a cursed vessel of the traitor legions. A high ranking one. A Space Marine, clad in fullm crimson terminator armor, is sprinting down the halls and decks, displaying feats of frankly impossible acrobatics, as he flips between major systems, runs along walls, and performs maneuvers that would not seem out of place if performed by a Harlequin. In his mighty clenched fist are two mysterious, long, ebon objects. The Supreme Grandmaster puzzles deeply over these prizes, and relents from identifying them to inspect his pursuer for clues. The Supreme Grandmaster's jaw slackens as he recognizes the face of the ultimate enemy, the thrice damnable grimace of Abbadon the Despoiler.
      The Supreme Grandmaster is about to begin giving orders to move out, when he realizes that the Despoiler's gait is... off. Unbalanced. He looks again, and the shock of what he sees causes warning klaxons in his sanctified armor to blare, alerting the world of the sure doom of the Supreme Grandmaster. Abbadon has been maimed, empty sockets in his vile armor peek out from where his arms should be. The Supreme Grandmaster does not even need to reconfirm the identity of the prize the fleeing terminator must have wrested from their foul attatchments.
