He smiles, and pats the sword at his belt, the blade bare in it's simple loop like sheath.

'You are missing your will Lad... Those are the trappings to make a rune-weapon of Fenris, true. Though that battered old book contains the ways and secrets taught to me by my former master, one I'm sure you know well. He was a wise and brilliant man, and I learned much from him. Probably the most fearfully powerful psyker to be allowed to be free in the Imperium. The piece you are missing is within yourself.

'Only the Emperor can show you it. Take these trappings, study them. The Servitor will take you to the quarters I have prepared from you. We will have many days before I can search out eyes and ears, and contacts the Inquisition had on this planet. In that time... I wish for you to forge that weapon in your power and style. I also have a fair amount of material on my ship. My master only just sent that book, and two copies besides. I will be taking this blade and consecrating it as well for this mission. When we emerge... It will be to see if your gift has truly come.'

He smiles, draining the amasec and sets the glass on the shelf above the fireplace, stepping back and lifting his hand.

'Every psyker has basic abilities, and then a primary power they develop. My is kinetic, energy related. I can sense the signatures and energies of things, and use them almost like a second sight. But, given the unique abilities of a psyker, I can manipulate them too.. Though it causes great strain, it is useful at times..'

As he was speaking, the glass had begun to vibrate. Suddenly, it splintered, cracked, and explode in a shower of fine sand, each grain still a razor sharp piece of glass.

'Meditate. Seek your power. And when it is done, forge it into the weapon. It will in time become not just a weapon, but a part of you. The true crafting of a force weapon never ends. For, as your grow in power, it will. and you will learn new wards, charms, blessings, and consecrations. Rather like a living thing itself, it will change as you do. Go, and do your duty to the Emperor, and ask him for guidance.'

OOC: I wanted to do a bit of charcter development here. Give a chance to get personal histories and pasts up, and deepen the interactions and meanings behind everyone. Hence this side trip, and others. Julius will be in the main room, working upon his weapon. After the retinue has talked to the Space Marines and done their jobs, feel free to approach. At this poitn, he is just beginning the consecrations, Celestial... Contact me via PM.. I had an idea...
