	Reri’s hand batted at the Vox Alarm Clock as the warble of some poor soul being flayed alive broke the silence of her bedroom. It was early, too damn early, but that was simply part of the price one paid when one was the daughter of a Succubus. A typical day for Reri never seemed to truly start until her mother had inflicted some fresh wound upon her, physically or otherwise, and the longer she took getting ready, the more vicious her mother would be.		Reri’s hand batted at the Vox Alarm Clock as the warble of some poor soul being flayed alive broke the silence of her bedroom. It was early, too damn early, but that was simply part of the price one paid when one was the daughter of a Succubus. A typical day for Reri never seemed to truly start until her mother had inflicted some fresh wound upon her, physically or otherwise, and the longer she took getting ready, the more vicious her mother would be.

	Yawning, the Dark Eldar slid from her bed and strode past the wall-sized windows that afforded her a view of High Commorragh’s splendor. Having lived among the tops of the blackened spires for close to a quarter of a century, the baroque beauty of it all barely even fazed Reri these days. She quickly ~~stole~~ into her bathroom for a quick shower before donning her usual outfit, ignoring the impressive blood fountains produced by the Scourge’s morning feast all the while. An assemblage of gold-trimmed, segmented plates fused with a tight bodysuit, her Wychsuit was but one of the many tools that would keep her alive to see another day. The form-fitting attire was lightweight and allowed her a full range of motion, though it sacrificed several degrees of protection to accommodate such. Still, it was the mantra of wyches to avoid projectiles and blows, doubly so for the Trueborn child of the head of the Cult of Strife.

	Hesperax: the family name of the deadliest gladiator ever to grace the arenas with her presence. The popularly-known “Queen of Commorragh” had always been the subject of much speculation and rumors due to her incredible skill, especially given that she never relied upon drugs in combat. Many believed Lelith to be the product of some Haemonculus or Daemonic experiment, and her child, Reri, doubly so. Though it was true that Lelith rarely graced others with her presence, save for the occasional realspace raid, the Succubus had somehow managed to conceal her pregnancy for the several years of gestation commonplace among Dark Eldar. It was as if, in one moment, a part of Lelith had budded off and gained sentience. A terrifying thought to many, but one that furthered the Queen’s legend nonetheless.

	Flowing from shadow to shadow, Reri left the relative safety of her room and crept down the corridor towards the kitchen. Lelith had taken to hiding small traps throughout the household as of late, though there had always been an unspoken rule that hallways, bedrooms, and bathrooms were “safe.” Designed to keep her daughter’s awareness at its peak, they were a practical means to ensure Reri would never find herself ambushed and slain by would-be assassins.		Flowing from shadow to shadow, Reri left the relative safety of her room and crept down the corridor towards the kitchen. Lelith had taken to hiding small traps throughout the household as of late, though there had always been an unspoken rule that hallways, bedrooms, and bathrooms were “safe.” Designed to keep her daughter’s awareness at its peak, they were a practical means to ensure Reri would never find herself ambushed and slain by would-be assassins.

	''Nothing so far… and the archway looks clear,'' Reri thought to herself, ~~eying~~ the kitchen’s entrance with an appraising eye. She had the overwhelming sense of being watched, and she knew full well that she was walking into an ambush. True, she could easily steal out of a side passageway and have a meal elsewhere, but that would invite some form of reprisal from her mother later. No, it was best to get it over with.

	The second she stepped through the arch, the telltale whistle of a dagger met her sensitive ears. Already in motion, she flowed out of the weapon’s path along her abdomen with a careful sidestep. Another dagger, this time aimed at her head. Dropping low, two more flung at her knees. All said and done, six deadly knives embedded themselves in the walls about Reri as she ended her graceful ballet with a flourish.

	With that Vect was alone. It was not long before he reached his private study and sealed inside. Only two rooms in Commorragh could rival the amount of artifacts and other such trophies contained within, and the gap would only be increased by the cube’s contents. Walking over to a rather impressive diorama of the Siege of Commorragh, Vect tapped the sides of the cube causing it to spring open. Almost immediately, a mechanical recording began playing.
