[The Omnissiah has walked amongs us once more!]
Such message has been spread across solar system.
From inner most vaults on Terra to the outmost relay stations on the system fringes, member of mechaninum revel in jubelations.
Any doubts were crushed as soon as plenty of pic-vids evidence was uploaded from adepts on mars.
Forges shaked of their rust and performs at unthinkable performance, machine spirits hummed in joy and become tame and docile.
Such a miracle could only be done by the Omnissiah himself.
While the member of adeptus mechanicus was in jubilation, the reverse happened to the people of imperium.
The arrival of machinist on Mars and then the revelation of Omnissiah comes at the same time. It doesn't have to be a primarch to understand on what had happened.
Adepts, guardsmen, and astartes watched their mechanicus counterpart for even a sign of rebellion.
Guilliman himself frowns as the implication of Mars submitting to Machinist and the effect it might bring to Terra and the Imperium.
Should the Mechanicum secceded from Terra, Imperium will ground to a halt. It wont be long before the empire of man will pick apart by chaos and xenos.
'I will not let the imperium my father left to me break apart and fall.' Clenching his fist, Guilliman vows in his internally.
With a subtle gesture, two honour guards primaris stood several steps behind the two shinobis liason. The rest watch over the adeptus mechanicus members.
Should they rebel, they will be dealt swiftly.
But for now, they have yet shown such sign. Preemptive strike might make the situation worsen.
The imperium could only watch for now.
He watchs on the holomap, a machinist sigil thunderhawk is approaching the imperial palace.
"Recall the Indomitus Fleet, put them on standby." Guilliman ordered a vox officer.
"Understood, lord Primarch."
Indomitus fleet, a fleet Guilliman intended for a crusade combined from various space marine chapters, guardsmen, navy, and the primaris unnumbered sons.
If the situation arises, the Primarch will need their service faster than anticipated.
With the aid of imperial fist phalanx and its chapter fleet and even battlefleet solar on the solar system, the imperium will triumph.
Suddenly, the chamber was opened. The suddenes almost make some trigger fingers guardsmen attack the mechanicus.
A host of custodes lead by the captain general appears.
"Lord Primarch, the Emperor has summoned you." Trajann Valoris said.
"Understood, custodes." Guilliman noddes believing his father also notice the dire situation the imperium is facing and forcing himself to summon the primarch.
"Make sure all of you are ready to receive our guest." Guilliman turns to his second in command, putting empashis on the word receive.
"As you wish my liege." The ultramarine bows, understanding his Primarch meaning. He immediately coordinates the defenses.
As the custodes lead Guilliman, adepts parted to make way for the Emperor's guardian and his son. They look at the departing figures with reverence and awe.
However, Guilliman notice something important.
"Where are we going?" Guilliman asks, he noticed the path they are taking is not leading to the throne room.
"We are going to receive lord Machinist, then we will go to the the throne room." Trajann answer in a flat tone.
"What??why? don't you realize the imperium is at stake right now?" Guilliman frowns. His mind unable to comprehend the situation.
"At stake?" Trajan turns to the primach, his eyebrow raised. The procession momentarily stops.
"Did the custodes not heard? Mars just declare their omnissiah has return. Considering the time stamps, that must be the machinist. What would happen if he asks the mechanicum to secedded from imperium and join his side." Guilliman ask what has worried him.
"Ahh, regarding that, you don't have to worry lord Guilliman. We have consulted to our entombed brethern. The oldest amongs them said they recognize the machinist sigil and the machinist himself. He walks with us, not against us." Trajann answer looking straight at Guilliman.
"How come you are so sure?" Guilliman pushes for anwer.
"Because, the machinist is The Emperor's own oath-brother." Trajann replied as he turns and continue leading the host.
Guilliman eyes widen at such information, for a moment he stood in his place.
Guilliman felt his throat tighten. The information by the Adeptus Custodes carried the weight of the Master of Mankind Himself. If they accepted the Machinist… there would be no lawful grounds to oppose him.
There is no need to.
"An oath-brother?!" Guilliman's stride lengthened, catching up to the procession.
"Yes, originally, the emperor wishes for the machinist to guide mankind besides him. Two who bore the burden of Mankind's ascension. The Aquila bears two heads for a reason." Trajann explain to the primarch of ultramarines.
"However, for reason only the emperor knows, the machinist decided to do a self exile. Perhaps with his presence the imperium might be in a far better condition." Trajann Continues.
"Perhaps." That was the only answer Guilliman could muster.
"We are here." Trajann said as they arrive on landing platform.
A thunderhawk has landed. With a hiss, the ram opened.
Nusa, followed by Ctezibius Gamna appears from the void craft.
"Welcome home, lord machinist." the custodes put their hand on their chest and bow in salute.
