1. Get out of the way.
Copy !req
2. No.
Copy !req
3. Lower your weapon.
Copy !req
4. They're faithless.
Copy !req
5. Their minds will rot, like the others.
Copy !req
6. Better to grant them
the Emperor's Mercy now.
Copy !req
7. Lower your weapon, sister.
Copy !req
8. Now.
Copy !req
9. Mercy? From one of the Astartes?
Copy !req
10. Vile things.
Copy !req
11. Are you encountering difficulties, assassin?
Copy !req
12. I expected efficiency.
Copy !req
13. I expected absolute purgation.
Copy !req
14. This one is still
Copy !req
15. within the operation's
estimated temporal parameters.
Copy !req
16. It would displease me
Copy !req
17. to be forced into awakening
more of your kind.
Copy !req
18. Ah. The detritus
of my recent experiments.
Copy !req
19. They are irrelevant. You may nullify them.
Copy !req
20. This one
is attempting to do so.
Copy !req
21. I see.
Copy !req
22. This...
Bearer of the Deathmark...
Copy !req
23. is experiencing...
Copy !req
24. vexation...
Copy !req
25. We're clear.
Copy !req
26. But stay close.
Copy !req
27. What do we do now?
Copy !req
28. Back to the crypts or...
Copy !req
29. We go west.
Copy !req
30. There's an evacuation locus
at the city's core.
Copy !req
31. Imperial forces may still hold
the Cardinal District.
Copy !req
32. We can get off-world?
Copy !req
33. I believe so.
Copy !req
34. I've never been off-world.
Copy !req
35. Be strong, Atia.
Copy !req
36. Courage will see you through
these days of horror.
Copy !req
37. Give me a moment.
Copy !req
38. We are not far from the city's core.
Copy !req
39. The Cardinal District
is only a few hours' west from here.
Copy !req
40. This is true.
Copy !req
41. But I have looked west
many times these last days.
Copy !req
42. I saw no evacuation vessels
rising into the sky.
Copy !req
43. Nor have I heard reports
from our forces there.
Copy !req
44. Is this a tactical briefing, sister,
Copy !req
45. or a disapproving lecture?
Copy !req
46. First you shield the faithless.
Copy !req
47. Now you lie to them.
Copy !req
48. Shuttle or not,
Copy !req
49. this is the best way to link up
with any remaining Imperial forces.
Copy !req
50. And if there's a way to get them aboard
an evacuation vessel, then I will find it.
Copy !req
51. If.
Copy !req
52. It's their only hope.
Copy !req
53. I won't steal that from them.
Copy !req
54. What kind of Angel of Death are you?
Copy !req
55. The kind that cannot tell children
Copy !req
56. they will die tonight
in their fallen city.
Copy !req
57. The kind that will fight that fate
to the last of his breath.
Copy !req
58. All you do is lead them
from one death to another.
Copy !req
59. I have no more time for your hate.
Copy !req
60. Hatred is the Emperor's greatest gift
to humanity.
Copy !req
61. He's right, Danica.
Copy !req
62. There might be a chance for these people.
Copy !req
63. When the people forget their duty,
Copy !req
64. they are no longer human
and become something less than beasts.
Copy !req
65. They have no place
in the bosom of humanity,
Copy !req
66. nor in the heart of the Emperor.
Copy !req
67. Let them die and be forgotten.
Copy !req
68. I know the Prime Edicts.
Copy !req
69. That's an ugly piece of scripture, sister.
Copy !req
70. That does not make it any less true.
I will not become a slave to false hope.
Copy !req
71. No? What about having
a little faith?
Copy !req
72. What...
Copy !req
73. what did you say?
Copy !req
74. If you cannot muster any hope,
Copy !req
75. I'll settle for another bolter.
Copy !req
76. Very well.
Copy !req
77. Cold... Hollow.
Copy !req
78. I don't...
Copy !req
79. Blind? I can't...
Copy !req
80. Don't look.
Copy !req
81. Move.
Copy !req
82. Are we close to the evacuation site, sister?
Copy !req
83. Yes. Just keep moving.
Copy !req
84. We are blessed, are we not?
Copy !req
85. Guided by one of the God-Emperor's
own angels.
Copy !req
86. Our world is ash,
its soil and soul defiled.
Copy !req
87. You speak to me of blessings, preacher?
Copy !req
88. Throne of Gold,
are you blind as well as foolish?
Copy !req
89. We have suffered much.
Copy !req
90. And yet, hope prevails.
Copy !req
91. All is not yet lost.
Copy !req
92. Just keep walking.
Copy !req
93. Defeat has embittered you, sister.
Copy !req
94. I sense a soul with shaken faith.
Copy !req
95. You sense nothing.
Copy !req
96. You know nothing.
Copy !req
97. I know that the God-Emperor forgives you,
Sister Danica.
Copy !req
98. For what sin do you imagine
I need absolution?
Copy !req
99. For this, of course.
Copy !req
100. For your defeat
at the hands of the alien filth.
Copy !req
101. For your failure to save our world.
Copy !req
102. You, who cowered in the darkness
instead of defending our world,
Copy !req
103. dare speak to me of failure?
Copy !req
104. I meant only to comfort you...
Copy !req
105. My sisters' blood waters
the holy ground you speak of.
Copy !req
106. The sacred land you didn't
even try to defend.
Copy !req
107. I am no soldier.
Copy !req
108. I did all I could...
Copy !req
109. You saved those four wretches,
dragging them into the shadows
Copy !req
110. and granting them life
for another handful of hours.
Copy !req
111. But how many others did you
abandon to die, preacher?
Copy !req
112. You do not speak for the God-Emperor.
Copy !req
113. You are a faithless wretch.
Copy !req
114. A man whose holy robes are soiled by fear.
Copy !req
115. You have no right to speak to me of faith,
nor of failure.
Copy !req
116. Least of all, forgiveness.
Copy !req
117. The Emperor is not a forgiving god.
Copy !req
118. Cutting a little close
to the bone, isn't he?
Copy !req
119. Be silent.
Copy !req
120. Why do you hate him?
Copy !req
121. Because he speaks
your own fears to your face?
Copy !req
122. Be silent!
Copy !req
123. Because you fear he's right?
Copy !req
124. Shut up!
Copy !req
125. He's what his faith made him.
Copy !req
126. Just like you, sister.
Copy !req
127. Just like you.
Copy !req
128. Hold!
Copy !req
129. Give no ground!
Copy !req
130. Sister!
The Seventh Concourse is overrun.
Copy !req
131. We can still fall back!
Copy !req
132. Should the road be easy,
the destination is worthless.
Copy !req
133. Stand, soldier, and fight.
Copy !req
134. The Astartes' assault is failing!
Copy !req
135. We can regroup with
the Seventy-Second Armoured
Copy !req
136. and push forward in the west!
Copy !req
137. Hold this holy ground!
Copy !req
138. Fight in the God-Emperor's light!
Copy !req
139. Life matters, sister.
Copy !req
140. Why do you plague me?
Copy !req
141. Without the faithful, you have no faith.
Copy !req
142. No...
Copy !req
143. You died in the battle.
Copy !req
144. Days ago.
Copy !req
145. I saw you die.
Copy !req
146. You're a zealot, Danica.
Copy !req
147. And like all zealots,
Copy !req
148. when your faith is challenged
you blame others for their weakness.
Copy !req
149. This world didn't fall
because its people were faithless.
Copy !req
150. It fell...
Copy !req
151. because you lost the war.
Copy !req
152. Angel? What's wrong?
Copy !req
153. We are here.
Copy !req
154. But where are the ships?
Copy !req
155. Where is... anything?
Copy !req
156. This wasn't the only evacuation locus.
Copy !req
157. There are others.
Copy !req
158. Have no fear.
Copy !req
159. We'll head west
and make for the city's edge.
Copy !req
160. - Once we're there...
Copy !req
161. Danica!
Copy !req
162. Take cover. Stay low.
Copy !req
163. Whatever happens,
keep heading west.
Copy !req
164. Sa'kan...
Copy !req
165. West. No matter what.
Get out of the city.
Copy !req
166. Into the fires of battle.
Copy !req
167. Unto the anvil of war.
Copy !req
168. Sister...
Copy !req
169. What now, sister?
Copy !req
170. Get up.
Copy !req
171. Forgive me.
Copy !req
172. Iron of will.
Copy !req
173. Steel of muscle.
Copy !req
174. Forged in the furnace of war.
Copy !req
175. This galaxy...
Copy !req
176. is ours.
Copy !req
177. - Your empire had its chance.
Copy !req
178. We head west.
Copy !req
179. But what about Sa'kan?
Copy !req
180. We have to get you to safety.
Copy !req
181. Irrelevant.
Copy !req
182. Unworthy.
Copy !req
183. An unusual degree of defiance.
Copy !req
184. Yet futile.
Copy !req
185. I...
Copy !req
186. hear...
Copy !req
187. an Angel...
Copy !req
188. Sa'kan! You're alive!
Copy !req
189. As are you, I see.
Copy !req
190. Do you recall what I said?
Copy !req
191. To go west.
Copy !req
192. Always west.
Copy !req
193. And may the Emperor be with you.
Copy !req
194. Come with us.
Copy !req
195. Please.
Copy !req
196. Not this time.
Copy !req
197. The Emperor still has need of me.
Copy !req
198. I must hunt that creature down,
Copy !req
199. before it hunts me.
Copy !req
200. But you're injured...
Copy !req
201. Your hand...
Copy !req
202. I hunted dragons in my youth, boy.
Copy !req
203. A few scratches won't slow me down now.
Copy !req
204. Go.
Copy !req
205. Stay in hiding where you can.
Copy !req
206. Make for the city's edge.
Copy !req
207. Tell them Sa'kan of the Salamanders
sent you.
Copy !req
208. My thanks, sister.
Copy !req
209. Speak.
Copy !req
210. This one... is hunted...
Copy !req
211. Elaborate.
Copy !req
212. This one requests...
Copy !req
213. regeneration...
Copy !req
214. rejuvenation...
Copy !req
215. Ah. You are reporting failure.
Copy !req
216. I will not waste my canopteks' energy
reviving a deficient instrument.
Copy !req
217. How interesting.
Copy !req
218. Greetings, alien filth.
Copy !req
219. Your continued existence
is a source of aggravation.
Copy !req
220. Nevertheless, with this opportunity,
a question occurs.
Copy !req
221. I owe you no answers, creature.
Copy !req
222. And yet,
the question will be asked.
Copy !req
223. Your presence on this world.
Copy !req
224. What drives your futile defiance?
Copy !req
225. The war is already lost.
Copy !req
226. The people of this world called for aid.
Copy !req
227. We answered.
Copy !req
228. We are the Salamanders.
Copy !req
229. We shield the helpless.
Copy !req
230. My turn, alien.
Copy !req
231. The queries of lesser species
Copy !req
232. are of neither use nor interest.
Copy !req
233. What hubris drives you,
Copy !req
234. that you believe you can hide
from the rage of my brothers?
Copy !req
235. From the fire they'll bring?
Copy !req
236. Such intriguing delusion.
Copy !req
237. So be it, bioengineered anomaly.
Copy !req
238. This exchange ends now.
Copy !req
239. Platoon Six-One-Seven. Report in.
Copy !req
240. Far ridge secure.
Copy !req
241. No xenos threat.
Copy !req
242. Acknowledged.
Copy !req
243. Platoon Seven-Five-Five. Report in.
Copy !req
244. Still in the western woods, ma'am.
Copy !req
245. Xenos presence?
Copy !req
246. Negative. No xenos.
Copy !req
247. Only the mind-dead.
Copy !req
248. They keep shambling out of the city.
Copy !req
249. Acknowledged.
Copy !req
250. Execution orders stand.
Copy !req
251. Understood. Seven-Five-Five, out.
Copy !req
252. I hate this.
Copy !req
253. Killing our own.
Copy !req
254. They're not our own.
Copy !req
255. Not anymore.
Copy !req
256. Do you think Command is working on a cure?
Copy !req
257. Cut the chatter.
Copy !req
258. Another one, here.
Copy !req
259. My family...
Copy !req
260. I...
Copy !req
261. Engaging it now.
Copy !req
262. Sa'kan...
Copy !req
263. Sa'kan sent me...
Copy !req
264. Throne, this one's just a child.
Copy !req
265. Am I... am I safe now?
Copy !req
266. Do it.
Copy !req
