Getting Warhammered - [ 176 ]
The Inquisitor thought long and hard, her expression all but warped into a picture of narrow-eyed suspicion and focus as she undoubtedly tried to figure out what question she could ask would grant her the most information about me, my goals and the threat I posed. I also didn’t doubt that she was ...

Infuriatingly, no one dared to ask the question I could almost taste hanging over them all. The bunch of cowards. I considered puppeteering one of them to ask it, even without my telepathy, I could do that much just by manually controlling a human body with a swarm of invading strings of my eldritch...

High rolling hills covered in verdant green forests spread as far as the eye could see, some sowed lingering sins of having sported vibrant flowers just a week ago, but most have long shed their spring looks. I stood up on a mountaintop, one of the smaller ones near where the two groups were converg...

Before jumping at the rail gun, a thought popped into my head that had my curiosity in thrall: what would that pulse rifle do to a human?Thankfully, that was a rather easy thing to test, and the answer was quite predictable honestly. Humans had even less natural defences than a humble ripper, so the...

“If it works, it works,” I said, staring at my newest creation. “I guess?”They only had a few hours, a day and some change to be a touch more specific, to be put together. For anyone else, expecting even just a half-working prototype in a little over a day for a new research or experiment wo...

Something was wrong with this planet, something deeply unsettling that sat thick in the air and sent shivers down Ciaphas Cain’s spine. Ever since that assault on the cafe and his near-miraculous survival of it, he had been wrestling with a deep sense of foreboding.The people of the towns they had...

‘We may have a problem.’ Selene’s voice buzzed in my ears and I sat up straighter, ignoring the soldiers rushing about to pack their stuff for a moment.‘Yes?’ I said. ‘What’s up?’‘Well,’ Selene drew the word out, sounding hesitant. ‘It seems we might want to reconsider the init...

Ciaphas Cain was old. Rejuvenation treatment after rejuvenation treatment had seen to that he lived so long he could barely even recall his home planet.The dark tunnels of the far-off hive world, and the tunnel-rats senses they had gifted him were the only mementos he had.Centuries had gone by since...

UPLOAD SCHEDULE CHANGE! (Sorry in advance)Well, all things come to an end, and so did my initial burst of inspiration for this story. For the first few months, I'd been writing five or six chapters a week, but now I can barely manage one or two. I'm not burnt out, per se, but I just can'...

I knew exactly where the jammer was; I felt each living being around me for hundreds of metres with pinpoint accuracy even with my aura loose and unfocused. Still, I acted like I didn’t. It was more fun that way.Never in my life would I have thought there would come a day when my concept of ‘fun...

People screaming in terror and the scent of burning flesh greeted me as I swapped places with my drone. With the other places now under control, I could handle over-watch even while playing around with Cain.I pulled the memories my drone kept into my mind and quickly ran through them, processing the...

I stood with my arms crossed, not quite tapping my feet, but having to suppress the urge to as I stared down at my conversation partner.“Are you … apologising?” Valenith looked at me dubiously, a hint of disbelief hanging off his every word.Am I? I thought, scrunching up my nose at him for a m...

Commissar Caiphas Cain was a lauded Hero of the Imperium. One of, if not the most famous and influential one currently alive. Imperial propaganda had spread word of his deeds far and wide, and for good reason. For a man who had only his chainsword, laspistol and charisma to rely on, he had survived ...

“Understand the world around you, the people under your command and your enemies. If you do, you will have the fundamental information needed to form viable plans as a leader.”It sounded simple, reasonable and made perfect sense. Which was why I couldn’t even refute it. Selene was right, and I...

“A. Few. Hundred?” I asked slowly, trying not to sound like I was ready to smack Val into the nearest sun if I didn’t like his next few words.I felt a hint of hypocrisy in getting mad over him, calling the death of a few hundred civilians as a ‘tiny’ collateral damage. I had destroyed void...
