The ship was a Void Runner, a long range scout vessel crewed by Rangers and piloted by a single Steersman. From deep concenttion and numerous holo-screens Tullaneth the Steersman observed his vessel. The ship reacted to his thought, turned at his will and he could feel the heart beat of the ships small infinity circuit greater than any of the Rangers with him. Five of those Rangers were Pathfinders, lost as an Exarch was but not on the path of war but the path of the outcast. They occupied various holds throughout the ship, tending their Long Rifles, sharpening blades. Through the sound resceptive crystals he could hear the song of one ranger, Finathren, several others listened to him in quiet contemplation while they listened to his verse and Tullaneth pushed his consiousness away from the rangers and to the outer hull instead. Rangers were dangerous. They did not know the discipline of the Path and there instincts and desires ruled them. They supped of a sweet fruit that may contain a venemous snake. Their freedom played havok with Tullaneth, hence why his distanced himself from them. He focused on flying the vessel, eyes darting from one crystal projected holo-screen to another. The deep blue robes he wore did not have sleeves as to leave movement of the arms free and a headband he wore was fixed with a glorious saphire which kept the his short black hair in the position he desired. The sun of the this solar system was a beauty to behold, both visually and physcically. Tullaneth allowed himself to fully immerse himself in the ebb and flow of the sun, devoted entirely to the warmth it provided.
During his distraction, his time away from the ship, scythed talons and rending claws knickered through the darkness, contained within grotesque Mycetic Spore, balls of biological goop that contained nightmarish creatures. Tyranid Warrior beasts, Hormagaunts with scythed talons and hoofed feet, Termagaunts with hunched forms and living weaponary, and 2 Tyranid Warriors for the lesser beasts could not operate out of the influence of the Hive Mind. With the warriors was a deadly creation, a biological nightmare, near perfect in its design. Curled up within the Mycetic Spore a Tyranid Prime waited for the impact.
