A vox recording follows, a bit garbled and in poorly pronounced High Gothic, but still possible to understand. Archon Akirvas: "Is there no limit to the debauchery and foolishness of the mon-kegh?" Despite the language barrier and the bad recording; his voice seem filled by a mixture of awe and shock. Then there is silence. --- Haxtes reaches the bridge - the corpse of the xeno-form is still lying on the floor, next to the corpse of Navigator Erasmus' minder. The Navigator himself seems to have retired. After a short conversation with his brother Jax the Maiden comes about and stars scanning for survivors. The logic is simple - if the eldar is still out there there is nothing you can possibly do to prevent him from pouncing. By searching the wreckage of the Brazen Sky you can at least get something worthwhile out of this mess. Jeb is taken to the medicae-bay. Haxtes too - he starts spasming after one too many stimms and has to be sedated and rushed to the medicae. --- Darkness engulfs the both of you...

Jax: "No live prisoners thus far, but we've got us a strange xenos craft lodged in the launch bay..."

Jax: "The bridge is a mess after the attack, but its mostly superficial - save my dead bridge crew. No other critical areas lost or critically damaged - one lance is down, but we have void shields up again. The Maiden is scanning all interior spaces, but it looks like we got all the attackers - but we'll have to check everything manually later." Crackling pause. "Now the odd part; the eldar ship seems to have broken off the engagement. They recovered from our strike rather quickly, sans their cloaking fields, came about on a pursuit course, then suddenly we got a rather cryptic transmission from her. Then she just vanished. No warp footprint. So she might just be hiding. But I don't think so..."

" Every thing is fine here, check the rest of the ship and get a status from all positions, What is the eldar ship doing ?" Haxtes keeps moving too the bridge

Haxtes finds his power-blade sticking out of a wall and the bolt pistol is buried in the side of the former captain's wooded desk - along with a strange gilded device that looks a bit like a clock, but with too many arms and strange symbols along the edge. There is no reply from the Maiden or the bridge - the vox is dead, destroyed. Once you exist the null-room you pick up the archaic hand-set in the captain's quarters and dial the bridge. Jax on a bad hard-line: "We're still alive and in one piece - mostly. The xenos have not only been stopped, they have been annihilated. Touch and go for a while on the bridge, but Erasmus (the Navigator) killed the thing that got in her using his third eye. What about your position?"

Jeb's heroic stand has prevented the dark eldar from escaping and allowed Parsifal and his team to fall them in the back and destroy them. Jeb is dead - but only for a short while - suddenly his heart starts beating again and he sits upright. Clutching his leg and producing a long stream of curses. (Minus one Fate Point) One of the armsmen nearly blows his head of, but luckily he recognizes friend from foe...
