Interdictum Armis
To/From: Legate Samarkis, Praetor Aggasi
Praetor, the Inquisitors have presented me with an urgent appeal. They believe the Gatekeepers are too formidible a foe to address unaided. Our losses are high. They beseech the use of interdictum armis. H.I. Hasta Tria specifically believes we have the tools within the Praetorium to turn the tide of battle, if only we are permitted to employ them.
We anticipated losses. Sapentia dictat that we hold in reserve these artefacts, which by their very existence threaten our world. There is precedent for their use in extremis, but not due to the overweaned ambitions of Inquisitors. They have an agenda of their own, as you are well aware.
Pareo. I personally request, then, that you dispatch a turma of Interfectors to assist us.
I must decline, Legate. This is the same request by a different name. The Interfectors are a last resort, and we do not stand at that precipice. Their sisterhood would raze this facility to the earth with us inside as punishment for our failings. The mere mention indicates to me you are slipping in the execution of your duties. I trust this is not the case.
