The Lord of Bones.

To my Dear Lady Karli,

Further to our discussion I have been to see our friend Marcus Dekantos in the Sanitorium on Evelyn's Vox.  He seemed well, but I had to burn out three psy adepts pulling the correct information from his broken mind.  As well assumed, his experience in the Malo expedition to the dead planet (XXXXXXX) known also as X-3312 has left him well and truly insane.  How he survived the wakening Necrons is a marvel in itself, though I have my theories.

Before the expedition was slaughtered he apparently was with Adept Ptolomia when she decyphered the Necrontyr ruins.  Apparently the sarcophagi had been emptied since some time in the aftermath of the Horus Heresy.  Circa M32?  However it was clear that whatever had resided within was unliked even amongst their own kind.  What we know to be true about the Necrontyr could be written on a hair follicle.  Still, Ptolomia had been an expert in her field.

 It seems this particular site had been a prison of sorts for something with more names than the elements had left us with.  Two which sat out to me was "God Maker" and the "Lord of Bones."
The God Maker part I felt you would be interested in.  It may prove fruitful to the group.  Especially if what we understand about "shards" of the gods in reference to the Eldar and the mysterious Ctan entities.  Indeed it seems this Lord of Bones was a bit of an expert in this field.  It flies in the face of what we have previously assumed about the relationship between the Ctan and the Necrontyr.  It certainly puts weight on Inquisitor Cravens theories.


Apparently the next few minutes become a blur as trauma then and now distorts the image.  We can assume the expedition was attacked by Necron defences, which quickly overwhelmed them.  Allegedly Malo survived by hiding within the sites' latrine.  Such cover must have overwhelemed any search method, though I'm sure in the past Necron defence automata have been thorough.

What troubles me most is what he said before he died however.

He said they were killed by Scorpions.

I have sent you the imprint as requested.
Your move Inquisitor.

Faro.
