My Lord Tothor, the blessings of the ever-vigilant God-Emperor upon you, may his Holy Light shine eternally throughout the dark reaches of the galaxy. This communiqué is of some importance, concerning events that began little more than three days ago, around 301.415.

I had been tracking the movements of a daemon-host called Karkiss and his associations with a cult of Nurgle on the planet Bizmoe, when this evening things got a little hairier than I expected. It turns out the cult here on Bizmoe is rooted far more deeply than I have the resources to combat and so I am contacting you to send a large detachment of Imperial Guard to assist. My research tells me that Battlefleet Loki is the closest gathering of Imperial Guard to Bizmoe. I would seek the help of the Arbites or the PDF, but it is clear that the planet is overrun, near to the point of requiring exterminatus.

But, like any man of sound judgment I am loathe to resort to such measures. There is perhaps a functioning hive left in Bizmoe, though it will take quite some cleansing to find it. Bizmoe will be a battlefield for many years, my gracious Lord, but the Emperor's Light will shine on it again.

Thank you, Lord Tothor, may the Divine Will of the Holy Emperor always light your path.

Respectfully yours,

Alfaron Timmett

Sagittarius Extremis Sector, Sagittarius Major

With all due greetings aside, my Lord Inquisitor Tothor, the hiveworld of Bizmoe is under great peril. While tracking a cult called the Wounds of the Empire, I have come to find that this world is infested with a sickness not seen in this Segmentum. In fact, the only recorded outbreaks of such a plague as the Wounds of the Empire have beset upon this world have only been seen in Segmentum Obscurus on the complete other side of the galaxy!

I thought perhaps of finding out about contacting someone from the Obscurus Inquisition for knowledge of just how to combat this matter effectively, but decided that such a task more befitted a man of your rank. I am just a field worker, and, not holding any illusions to how I am viewed within my own Ordo, do not wish to put a bad face to the Inquisition of the Sagittarius Extremis Sector.

All knowledge about the subject aside, it would be best to call in some kind of heavily-armed support, as no one Inquisitor will be able to handle a task of this size. Perhaps calling in the Navy or the Imperial Guard would be sufficient. You may have already inferred that the local PDF has been far less than useful in stopping the threat that this cult poses.

Thrones, Lord Tothor.

Your servant,

Nethin Quind, Inquisitor

Master of the Ordo Malleus Sagittarius Extremis,

Inquisition High Council Officio, Sagittarius Extremis Sector

My faithful servant,

What in the Holy Light of the Golden Throne could be such the matter that I need contact the Imperial Navy to root out a dug-in cult on Bizmoe? If it has reached a point where the Inquisition can no longer serve its purpose in and of itself, even to the point where it would overwhelm the Inquisitional Guard to take action, then a proper report must be filed.

It does not support any of your requests to be so vague. As your leader I try very hard not to hold your methods against you (unless of course they interfere with the laws set forth by the Administratum and our own Inquisition) but you cannot expect me to be able to send any kind of substantial armed force to Bizmoe without due cause.

If the situation is truly urgent, then it must be made clear exactly why military forces need to be deployed.

Inquisitor Timmett is also working on Bizmoe. Contact him and see what you can work out together, from his communiqués it sounds like you are working different ends of the same case.

The Emperor Protects.

Lord Inquisitor D.H. Tothor,

Master of the Ordo Malleus Sagittarius Extremis
