Rocking slightly in his seat, Barbosa Callidon ceases his mutteringlong enough to answer: “As a light will invariably create a shadow, sotoo does the happiness of these people cause suffering to otherselsewhere. Such a life, while enjoyable, is not the stuff of theImperium. All must give as they are able, and take as they require.These people take everything they want and need from others, and givelittle in return.”

“Don’t make no diferece to me either way Lord” As Stygga diggs in her ear.”I’m at home any where you send me”
“Gime my ‘Vera’ (Auto gun) and some shells. Point me at the Gits. Yousays who gets it. I make em lay down, for ever”
“Sounds like a good lot to me lord”

Preacher Mirsad’s face twists into disgusted scowl at Barbosa’s typically’psyker’ answer.”Always speaking in riddles…” he thinks to himself. He tightens his grip onhis war hammer and replies in a voice that fills the cabin…”It is not given to men that they should take as they desire. Only the ImmortalEmperor, blessed be his name, has the right to take. All others must do as he willsthem. His will is that men must be made strong through war, hunger, and trials. There are nocivilians in the battle for survival. All those who will not fight become the enemies of Him OnEarth.”Mirsad pulls out his Aquila necklace and touches each bead in turn as he mumblesthe Emperor’s Divine Works softly to himself.

Busy thoroughly servicing his lasgun, Kaltos glances up to reply. “AllI need is my trusty lasgun a couple charge packs and something to shootat…….but if you ask me these people live a life of blindignorance. There’s always going to be a conflict whether its a greatbeast or a Tyranid hive fleet.”“But I must be here for a reason or you wouldent have asked for myservices.”
