rearguard force spilled forth
from the cover of the crude
wooden dwellings.

Lexus moved towards the Amber
Cube, pressed his hand against
its smooth surface, and began
to unseal it. |

helped ensure that few with
designs on disturbing its master
would survive a run across the
village square. |

his faithful Retinue across
the square towards the ominous
Cube despite the threat of Plague
Marines taking up positions
on his flank. |

finished yelling at, Junior
Officer Hernot fell prey to
the whispers of the beast within
the Cube and halted his advance. |

enemy in the distance, the Stormtroopers
and remaining Lascannon advanced
on the far side of the village. |
