Yes… yes he understood now. He understood so much. He couldn’t believe how blind, how shackled he had been. With this orb, this great and powerful artifact of a dead civilization, he could remake the Imperium of Man into something greater. It would involve a lot of sacrifice and probably turn so many of his brothers against him, but it must be done. He could not let anything stop him. The orb… it was too precious. He could not let it be harmed.
Would his kill-team understand? No, they were blunt brutes with no appreciation for the subtleties of war or knowledge. He would have to kill them all. It was regrettable, but necessary. The orb was too precious and too valuable.
Yes… he would kill them all. Soon. He admired the orb one last time with a wide grin, pondering the great future it would bring him.
