The guild merchant spat as the man in the high spire walked laboriously alongside the delegation. With an outstretched finger he pointed to the Orlocks advancing down the tunnel, a glint of neon light reflecting off of what looked to be a imperial surplus Autocannon. “They look like they fully intend to interfere and the ordinance they carry is something I believe to be a throne cursed complication”. Checking his Vox unit the gangs Nacht Ghuls had reported in a… Read more.
