As Krauss rested in his room, there was a knock at his door. Standing outside was one of the crewman, a data-slate in hand. The man waited patiently outside the room, waiting for the storm trooper to answer.

[Armoured Priest]

Krauss looked up from the table, where his shotgun and hell pistol were laid out dismantled and in the process of the usual daily maintaince. He gets up from his seat and walks to the door, opening up to see who was there and why.

[Prosperan Son]

"Apologies for disturbing you Trooper Krauss." The Crewman apologized in advance, bowing in his amends. He took a quick moment to scan his data-slate once more, making sure he had a positive I.D. " It would appear the Inquisitor has made a summons for you. Something regarding guest arrival."

[Armoured Priest]

Krauss gives the man a curt nod in confirmation to the man at his door before turning around and back to the table. He swiftly reassembled the hellpistol with ease and slid it into the holster at his side as well as making sure his trench knife was still in it's sheath in his combat boot. He grabbed his trench coat and puts it on as he goes to find out what man meant by 'guests'.

As soon as he steps out, he immediately stumbles upon Nessa. The now fully armored Soriatas is standing outside of his room, leaning against the wall.
"And here I was hoping, to get you myself." She shrugged, walking alongside him as they moved towards the hangar bay.

[Armoured Priest]

"Well there is always next time." he shrugged back with a smirk underneath the gasmask. He was glad having the chance to walk with her for a little bit before the serious business kicked off. "So do you know what the inquisitor meant by 'guests'? I have not heard nothing till now I think." he asked her, seeing if she knew anything about the news.

[Prosperan Son]

She brought her hand to her chin, rubbing it with her iron fingers as she thought how to respond."Hmmm, I suspect, that our Astartes have finally arrived." She guessed, thinking that was the best scenario.

[Armoured Priest]

"Hm" Krauss simply grunted, surprised to hear such a possiblity. Especially after what happened years ago with the Black Templar chapter. In fact, he still was not sure if that was cleared up yet. "Do you know what chapter?" he asked her, thinking she might be right.

[Prosperan Son]

"I had Spoken with the dear Inquisitor earlier about the subject, and in the last few days. The Templars are still hesitant to lend us anymore battle-brothers. The Inquisitor was not bothered though as he said something about the Templars being unable to provide what he needed." She answered, making a turn towards the hangar bay hallway." From the Inquisitions past use of Astartes, I think we may see something along the lines of the Red Hunters."

Kraussus head sort of tilted as he thought about the part of 'templars being unable to provide what he needed.' They were astartes, what more could the inquisitor need? "Red Hunters? That is a chapter I have not heard of before." He said as they continued down the corridors to meet with the inquisitor.

[Prosperan Son]

"That's shocking, they're one of the few Astartes chapters that actually don't glare at you when you mention the word "Inquisition"Nessa informed him as they walked on, bringing her augmetic hand to her chin, cupping it. "From what I know, they're history is shrouded, but what is known as that they've had close ties with the Inquisition since their founding. It's not uncommon for an Inquisitor to have a retinue consisting of Red Hunters."

[Armoured Priest]

"I guess it is a gut thing if they do not dislike us the moment they see us. At least it would be a change of pace." He shrugged, shifting the satchel he carried a little. "But, nothing is really known about them? At all?" he asked Nessa again. He knows most chapters are pretty secretive about their inner workings, but there is always a few rumours floating about.

[Prosperan Son]

"Only the highest of Inquisitors have any real information regarding them. Everything else is just left to speculation." Nessa did her best to answer." There is some that say, the Inquisition personally requested the founding of their Chapter. They are a mysterious chapter, although not as shrouded as the Exorcist."
