When his eyes finally opened, [[Jarus]] was staring at a fuzzy silhouette of something giant. The giant spoke. “Welcome home,” it rumbled. Jarus blinked rapidly. The room began to come into focus, shining like a temple. The giant spoke again. | |||

“My child, there is nothing to fear. I have rescued you. Welcome to my empire.” The feeling returned to Jarus' limbs. He was restrained. And this creature now towered over him. He was staring into the face of death. “Fear not, my warrior-to-be.” | |||
Jarus blinked slowly. What about the other pilots? His battalion? Did they escape? | Jarus blinked slowly. What about the other pilots? His battalion? Did they escape? | ||

With a flourish, Emperor Calus lifted a hand. “My Star, a gift for you.” The theater had begun. | |||

The hangar door opened slowly, and behind it a row of purple banners dropped, one after another. As each banner snapped into place, a Psion fell to hands and knees, head bowed low. | The hangar door opened slowly, and behind it a row of purple banners dropped, one after another.

Jarus's chest fluttered. The ship was beautiful. A drum sounded. A Cabal emerged, delicately carrying armor, holding it as if it would break. Piece by piece it was placed on the floor in front of Jarus. | Jarus's chest fluttered. The ship was beautiful. A drum sounded.

Shayotet's ship lay smashed and burning on the ground. A few meters away, Shayotet himself crawled from a pod. Jarus jumped lightly from his own ship, sent it rocketing back into low orbit with a tap to his nav-gauntlet. God's Will had done its part. Now Jarus must finish him. | Shayotet's ship lay smashed and burning on the ground. A few meters away, Shayotet himself crawled from a pod.

“Jarus, you simply are wrong.”<br> | |||
“We will agree to disagree, my lord.”<br> | |||
“Your palate simply lacks the sophistication to detect the notes in your world's drink!”<br> | |||
“I am Sindû. It was crafted for my palate, my lord.”<br> | |||
“But you simply do not taste all of this. It's impossible.”<br> | |||
“I do not currently taste anything, my lord.”<br> | |||
“Well, we must fix that.” | |||
In the silence of space, a nearby explosion rocked God's Will. Jarus narrowed his eyes. “My lord, I have an issue to tend to.” | |||
“I shall save your drink for you.” The cockpit monitor flickered from Calus's face to a radar. Small red triangles blinked onscreen as an alarm took up its shrill cry. Jarus pulled a visor down in front of him and fired the ship's thrusters. | |||

Jarus left God's Will behind for his final mission. He needed a ship big enough to carry his fellow Shadows to Ghaul, and with enough internal shielding and anti-impact padding to ensure the plan they had developed would succeed. | Jarus left God's Will behind for his final mission.

Under Jarus's control, the ship dodged, weaved, and carved a path through the Red Legion. His fingers flipped switches, rapidly changing the displays on the monitors surrounding the cockpit. In the hold, the Shadows waited. Jarus aligned the ship's trajectory toward the Dominus' ship. The plan was simple. | Under Jarus's control, the ship dodged, weaved, and carved a path through the Red Legion.

“My dear Jarus,” the emperor had said. “We must deliver the Shadows to the Dominus at any cost.” Jarus knew what this meant. For him, the trip was one-way. But that was all right, so long as Ghaul's was, too. | |||
