Re: In Conclusion
Haxtes has been working on the truck, absolutely concentrated on repairing the truck, hammering and welding (and whatnot) on the vehicle. He does not say much but mumbles binary prayers from time to time.

Re: In Conclusion
Acolyte Damien smiles at the awkward Brother, glad that his abilities came to some good. The Daemon infestation was made possible through Psyker powers, yet Psyker powers were necessary to save the life of Lamark. Perhaps there is some symmetry in this dark universe, some hope. The Imperium has lost a Seer, but gained a veteran group of Acolytes, and started the beginnings of peace on a world. Some hope, indeed.
All he does is leave his blessing upon the Churchman, a small ceremony of protection from the Dark Powers. It is the most he can do, and he leaves without regrets.

Re: In Conclusion
Lamark takes Solaria's hand and shakes it. "I will remember that, and I will remember you all." He then reaches up and unslings his lasrifle, "I wanted to present this to you all, a gift, a token of my thanks. It isn't much, but it is a good weapon and its served me in countless battles. I would be honoured if it coudl carry on the fight in your hands. I have no use for it now, my battles will be of a very different kind now." He holds the weapon out for anyone to take.

Re: In Conclusion
Solaria looks at the others. She knows she can learn it without any trouble, it would just take a day or two fiddling with it. It has been a couple of years since weapon school at the Arbite Acedemy. But she gives the first dibs to the others, like Haxtes, that she knows can use it now...

"It's a fine weapon," Jericus replies. "Thank you, Lamark."

Re: In Conclusion
Rego pulls a stub pistol from his waist and looks Lamark in the eyes. "We will carry yours with honor, but please take this in exchange. I would not wish a brother of the Imperium to be unable to defend himself should the need arise". The priest almost insisting in his tone...

Re: In Conclusion
Xanthia is amazed at Lamark's generous offer. She eyes it, almost wishing for it, but knowing she is not the best to receive the wonderful weapon. She offers Lamark a smile. "You'll do very well in your new position."

Re: In Conclusion
Haxtes calm face cannot fully hide his yearning for the weapon. He pulls himself together and says, calmly: "I have been trained in this kind of weapon. If no one else claims it, I would indeed find good use for it." He looks at the others to see what they say.
He knows the only kind of ranged weapon training he has is using all kinds of las weapons, but will concede if anyone else wants it.

Re: In Conclusion
Solaria looks over to Haxtes, "Take it Magos. Such a generous offer and you can use it better than any of us." Turning back to Lamark and following Rego's lead, the Arbite pulls out her riot baton and hands it to the man. "Broken up a few fights with this and I know you'll need to thump a few drunks before life get's back to normal. Better than shooting them..." The baton Solaria hands him is a good, serviceable weapon. When Lamark turns it over in his hands, he can see that it's Arbite issue too, the stylized "I" is las etched into it, a fist with scales at it's middle. She smiles and nods, "Brother."

Re: In Conclusion
Lamark hands his weapon to Haxtes then, as the Techpriest accepts the high quality lasrifle with grace. Lamark holds up his hands and refuses either weapon from Rego or Solaria. "No my friends. My predecessor sought power and was brought low with it. I will arm myself with Faith and it shall be my sword and my shield. Keep your weapons, you will need them more than I." He doesn't take the weapon, no matter how much you insist, but he is obviously honored by the offers and means no insults. "I believe we have come to the point of you departure. Thank you all again, and I hope one day we might meet again, under better circumstances."
The group says their final good byes and loads the Cargo 8 with supplies for the return trip to Port Suffering.
