prime weapons and make ready.
And accept now, before it is too late,
the gratitude of Areum Keeso
of the Stormlords
for joining me in this venture.

Brace For full stride. We march!
[static hissing]
Full stride, Moderati Lyria.
[Lyria] Your will, my Princeps.
[heavy metallic footsteps]
Arm apocalypse launchers.
Launchers armed, Princeps.
Main mounts. Gatling cannon.
[mechanical whirring]
Cannon, Princeps.
Claw.
Claw armed, Princeps.

Maniple, close in formation!
Detecting target clusters. Hostiles.

[explosion]
DeMartine!
Astrum Venger!
Stay in formation!
[explosion]
Losing motive power, Aurora Ferrum.
They're sundering our armor.
Struggling to stabilize.
Maniple, come about!
We will not abandon Venger!
[Kesso] Negative! Do not drop speed!
We must, senioris!
We need DeMartine's weapons
and he cannot
endure this assault shieldless.
Zaro, flank Venger!
Fortis Protocol!
Overlay your void shields!
Coming about.
[tense music playing]
[Nynex] Clavius Dread
is pulling ahead, my Princeps.
What? Senioris!
[explosion]
Do your duty, Gemnon.
Stay by my side.
We have one chance at this.
[rumbling]
[Keeso] I need ten more seconds!
I have visual on target!
Hold maniple formation!
[rumbling]
[Kesso] I see him!
I see him!
[weapons firing]
[explosion]
[Nynex] Astrum Venger bleeds,
my Princeps.
DeMartine
Critical hit to motivation
We cannot come back from this
[explosion]
[metallic clanging]
[thuds]
Astrum Venger is lost.
Not a glorious death
Get us back into formation
with Clavius Dread.
War Griffons, with me!
Press the attack!
Hold your course, Gryphonicus!
We have him now!
[stomping]
Senioris Keeso
Confirm your target.
He is right there!
Mark twenty! Lupercal!
[explosion]
I see nothing, Keeso.
[Keeso] Your sensoria are faulty, Orla!
You know this! I have clear
My auspex is still functional, senioris.
And I am reading hard returns!
[mechanical flickering]
Metallics! Engines!
Recalibrate your sweep, Gemnon!
Follow me in!
No hard stop!
[muffled explosions]
Maniple! Hard stop!
Reverse stride now!
Repeat, disengage assault
and reverse stride!
[tense music playing]
Keeso! Pull back!
You are deceived!
Negative, Princeps
Negative.
Your readings are wrong.
I have a firing solution.
[explosion]
[thunder rumbling]
[thunder rumbling]
[stomping]
[Keeso] Oh, you treacherous bastards
[faint gunfire]
[explosion]
Shields are holding,
but not for much longer!
[weapons firing]
[explosion]
They're stripping our voids!
Reverse stride!
Maniple, disengage!
Orla!
We can't disengage from this!
It was a ruse, and we are done here!
[weapons firing]
You walked us to our deaths,
but I will not leave you there alone.
Yuri
We are committed.
No more objections!
[tense music playing]
[weapons firing]
Break off, Yuri!
[weapons firing]
Engine kill!
[explosion]
[explosion]
Engine death!
Magnificar Logos has fallen.
War Is Just.
[weapons firing]
Break off, Augustine!
With all due respect, my lady.
We both know how this ends.
[explosion]
[Nynex] Engine kill!
Bellum, advance on my flank.
If we can buy Clavius space
to fall back
[metallic rumbling]
Moderati, target that warlord.
Brace for maximal fire.
[weapons firing]
[explosion]
Engine kill!
[metallic clanging]
[thuds]
[Nynex] They seek to duel us,
my Princeps.
Then they shall die up close.
[metallic clanging]
Brace!
[rumbling]
[siren wailing]
[tense music playing]
[weapons firing]
[Keeso] Always a lie.
The warp trickery you feared, Orla
[explosion]
[Keeso] I have killed you all.
The death of fools, Orla.
It tastes bitter
Senioris! Fall back and disengage!
We can cover you!
They're on you!
They most certainly are.
[explosion]
[Keeso] All power to the reactor!
Gemnon, get clear.
I'm going to take them with me,
into the storm!
[intense music playing]
[explosion]
[metallic hissing]
[explosion]
[stomping]
Status?
Shields extinguished, my Princeps.
Ammunition reserves critical.
Reactor heartbeat low red.
Overall?
We bleed.
Badly.
Naxos Bellum?
[NYNEX] No contact.
Location?
[Nynex] Insufficient data, my Princeps.
Sensoria failure,
no mapping.
All we have is the last recorded plot.
Two-eight leagues from the Lion's Gate.
Nothing can be trusted.
The warp torments us at every step
[muffled explosions]
[Nynex] What is your will, my Princeps?
We work with what we have.
This ends however we end it.
Find me a target.
