'''Wrath of the Mosquito (Tales of Janssen, Sword of Corvus, Chap. 1)'''

I stood before Captain Bakker of the 8th Company of the Swords of Corvus chapter. "We were deployed in response to the appearance of the Kabal of the Broken Sigil, the group responsible for the attack on Revidious, one of our recruitment worlds. You followed our Chief Librarian into battle, is that correct, Brother Janssen?"

"That is correct, Captain Bakker. I witnessed everything that happened, including his last words." I replied.

"Then do tell, what occurred during that battle?"


"Listen up, my Brothers," Chief Librarian Addicks spoke to us, "Those shiv-eared shitheads are going to throw everything they have at us, so we need to do the same."

"Sir, yes sir!" my Brothers and I yelled in unison.

Crackles of thunder accompanied the dancing tempests of electricity summoned by the Chief Librarian and me, as the nervous systems of the wayward Eldar were fried to a point beyond the continuance of life. Bolts destroyed their bodies, a squalor of gore raining down upon those damnable Xenos that survived. Soon, however, we were separated by an ambush. I watched as Addicks killed eleven of the things with his Force Sword, helping those Brothers with me using my own warpfire blade.

"You are the one called Addicks, are you not?" the last Xeno facing him asked. "My name is Zalvera, and I've heard much about you. We'll have a great time destroying you back in Commoragh." She laughed sadistically.
 
"I'm guessing you're some sort of champion of the enemy? If you genuinely believe that a Sword of Corvus, a son of Caledon II, would ever fall to a filthy Xeno, you must truly be insane!" Addicks' prediction was right. He would not fall to the filthy Xeno. Both warriors charged towards each other, Zalvera intending a faint attack. She believed that the Swords of Corvus would fall to her people's foul tricks, not understanding that we are no fools. When she went in for a second strike, he disarmed her with telekinesis and burnt her disgusting flesh with warpfire. He and I managed to force the other attacking Xenos away, seemingly ending the battle.
He turned away to lead us to the next area, and something changed.

Suddenly, I felt nauseous. I tried to warn Addicks, but I lost my speech to the desire to vomit. Next thing I knew, a beam of energy struck Addicks, forcing him to the ground.

I rushed over to him. His armor had been painted to act as camouflage for the icy feral world, with the exception of one of his pauldrons, as required by the Codex Astartes. Two black wings, spiraling around a green eye, all cut by a sword coming from below. The emblem appeared upon a field of dark blue, the blue of night. "Chief Librarian! Can you hear me?"

His last words were brief and quiet. "Brother... The Pariah... The Culexus... The Assassins... Are heretics..."


My Captain spoke to me once more after I had finished explaining the situation to him. "I shall take this information to the Chapter Master. The Officio Assassinorum are heretics, and must be purged! You are dismissed."

I put my arms to my sides and bowed. "May a murder of Crows slay the Sword's foes." He bowed to me likewise before I returned to upright position and left the room.
