The procession of Hardradegard Bloodborn marched the hovering, void-shielded gurney down the black iron, red lit hallway. Outwardly, they were the personification of Divided's military elite. Inwardly, each was more terrified than he had been in the death camps where he had been trained, or in the warzones he had traveled to in the eternal war against the blind Imperium. There are few persons in the galaxy who would not have been. This was, after all, Woe , the lair of the master of the Divided's Dark Mechanicum. Razor, the Viral Princess. A place that has gained a reputation of myth and legend amongst ranks of the Divided's regime and a place of terror and sorrow even to those who worship the Ruinious Powers. In the dim red lights of the hallway, eerie shadows danced, making the men feel uneasy. A servitor or two passed by and a group of hushed-toned Dark Mechanicus watched them as they paraded past in silence. They reached a huge ceramite door at the end of a grand hallway and one of the Bloodborn punched a key into a pad on the wall. The men readied gasmasks before they entered. With a loud hiss and creak the door opened to allow passage; a noxious gas pooled along the ground, flowing outward into the hallway. The leather of their jackboots sizzled.
Many of them hesitated to enter the bleak, dark chamber, the commanding officer had to hurry them along into the darkness; it never bodes well to dawdle on Woe. The room itself is huge, stretching far down to an enormous insignia of Nurgle's symbol that leaked greenish gas. Along the columned walls - a mockery to Adeptus Mechanicus structures on forge worlds across the Imperium - hung large banners with interchanging symbols of Chaos and Nurgle. Along the sides, breathing heavily in the low hanging mist, were large machines, broken dreadnaughts with huge cables coming from them. The beleaguered machines moaned, their internal tortures only to be guessed at. The soldiers hear the horrifying cries of people being experimented on, probed, the sounds of spinning drills and saws filled their uneasy ears. Dark Mechanicus and servitors of all kinds scurried across the room, doing their devious work. The procession took notice of two Astartes suspended in tanks of greenish water, naked. Samples were being taken from them by a swarm of needle-appendages. One particular servitor wheeled by pushing a cart filled with tubes - both large and small - of various nasty looking liquids. The Bloodborn reached the end of the hallway and on a throne-like iron seat sat a tall woman with very long bleached white hair. If she was standing up would be to her waist, but sitting, naked as she was, it pooled on her shoulders and lap.
Her slender body was covered in scars and mechidendrite ports, leaking black liquid and inflamed. Her thin skin was a pale, sickly green and almost seemed to shift and move underneath. They could tell some of her tendons and muscles were artificial through the almost translucent skin. She is wearing a half gasmask, only her eyes show and they were closed. Dark circles suggested lack of sleep or death. Connected to her back were hundreds of tubes and cables of all sizes snaking up the columns behind her and into the wall. In front of the woman was a panel that her hands danced across, typing in codes. One of her arms was mechanical up to the elbow, each digit sharply clawed at the tip like a bird of prey. Suddenly, before the commander could speak a very large Astartes drifted in front of them in full armor, a tech marine by the equipment on his person. He had long white hair down to his sholders , pale green skin and a gasmask in place of helm. The sigil of Grandfather Nurgle on his right pauldron seeped black ooze from the vents. The Astartes crossed his arms in from of his broad chest angrly.
"No one seems the mistress, what are you scum doing in here?" His voice was low and snarling like a dog protecting a bone. The commander in charge stepped forward hesitantly but before the terrified man could speak, a mechanical voice came from behind the traitor Astartes. "Marus, let the pathetic meat-bags speak." The harsh mechanical voice came from Razor, who was now standing, eyes open, from her throne, still stark naked with cables attached to her back.
"Mistress you've interrupted your sleep...let me deal with such vermin." He answered, turning around towards his Lady of Rot. Her reptilian milky iris' observed the men before her, analyzing.
"Who has sent you to my planet commander?" She asked in a surprisingly calm tone, the frantic insanity that once caused her nervous ticks and shifty eyes is calmed and cold. With a sudden hiss and ripping sound the cables detached themselves from her back and two attendants attached a backpack with tubes connecting to her mask, draping a black tattered robe over her shoulders she walked gracefully down the steps, her naked body still showing. She stopped next to Marus, standing taller then the Hardradigardian commander and his men, but shorter then the Astartes. Her stare cold and calculating she asked again.
"Why are you meat-bags here on my planet? What is this?" She looked at the gurney, on it is the unconscious form of what looks like a man. The corrupt void shield, which left the body and gurney in a violet haze, fell away as one of the Bloodborn taps a control. The commander began to explain.
"This Imperial agent, an Inquisitor if you note the rosette," indeed, Razor saw, pinned upon the breast of his elegantly simple brown leather coat was the symbol of the hated Inquisition, "has been captured by our forces in a lightning raid against Warmaster Klees main encampment on Ferrius II. It is believed he holds vital intelligence, and his holiness the Thrice Damned has himself requested you break him."
Razor looked intently at the unconscious and bloodied body of the Inquisitor, she ran a clawed finger along the edge of his stubble-darkened chin. She then back at the soldiers with a twisted face. She glided up to them, staring with predatory eyes.
"How dare you command me weakling! I do not take orders from underlings," She leaned closer to the commander, who swallows hard at the sigh of her terrifying eyes. She ran a metal claw along his chin, drawing blood.
"You are lucky I am not hungry." They shook in their armor as the Princess of Decay cackled and straightened her back.
"You are dismissed, Marus show these gentlemen the way out," she said as the Astartes steps forward growling menacingly. Without hesitation they hurried off out of the room, disappearing from sight.
Auspex confirming the swift departure of the Bloodborn upon a Helix class frigate, Razor considered the prisoner. The commander had given her a dataslate dossier on this Inquisitor, indeed Lord Inquisitor, Zevren Deckard. While a serpentine mechadendrite downloaded the information directly into her cortex, her eyes ran across the mans body and clothing, taking in everything. Her appraisal was interrupted by the disturbing lack of relevant information on this man.
What in the warp does Divided want me to do with this, she thought.
Crossing the many laboratories, vivisectorums, and experimentariums that make up the machine-world of Woe, she made her way to the onyx sheathed sphere of her personal astrotelepathic array. Within its flanged, circular interior she stood, blasting out a stream of scrape-code. With a distant backdrop of the moaning of captive psykers, the array began to shift and swim, mirroring, for an instant, the holy unreality of the warp. Before she could fully dive into its infinite insanity, however, the image of a vast chamber coalesced. Easily the size of small warships, the room's ceiling is lost to sight. All about the floor are etched geometries: perfect non-angles, the mathematical properties of the impossible. There is a throne, huge and imposing, made simply of a single block of inky black stone. Behind this great seat, filling the back quarter of this immense domicile, are instruments, weapons, and artifacts beyond compare, each more horrifying and potent than the last. And then, of course, there was the figure upon the throne, shrouded, as he was, in a cloak of shifting black smoke.

The high seat of Divided, Thrice Damned, Prophet of Chaos, and True Prince of Daemon, had not been made to impress. Invariably, it had that effect, and its master enjoyed this symptom of its design, but truth be told, the immensity of his chamber had a more practical purpose. Filling a third of his Capitol battleship, Eternal War, it had been made to accommodate every king, warlord, high priest, and champion that paid him homage. In recent years, despite being the width and breath of a city, it had been unable to fit them all at once.
Sitting upon his throne, Divided threw the enormity of his unrivaled psykic might to the various sectors and sub-sectors where his Black Crusade bled the Imperium. It took several moments before he returned his gaze to his surroundings, and found the flickering representation of Razor standing before him. Breathing a deep sigh, he gestured magnanimously before him.
"My Princess of Rot, how kind of you to join me. I had been expecting you, there was no need to keep so quiet." Inside, his multifaceted intellect knew that she had waited out of respect. Even for one such as her, it did not do to disrespect the Prince of Daemons. Despite knowing this, he had no reason to be discourteous; after all, she had been a companion of his back at the very beginning of his glorious Crusade.
"Your highness," her giggling voice bubbled with renewed insanity, "how naughty of you to tease me with an Imperial guinea pig. There are so many interesting things I could learn, many studious ways I could break him. But there must be a reason you specifically gave him to me."
Divided laughed, the sound of his barking, bestial humor inviting and comforting, even for a twenty foot tall demi-god straight from mans first visions of hell.
"Indeed he is a special gift, one I think you might appreciate. This gift," and he gestured at a large box of intricately carved wood that rested on his thigh, "put me in the mood for giving."
Razor notes the box, and, with disgust, realizes that it is covered with Imperial devotions and scenes from the life of some saint.
"Where," she spits out, "did you get that!"
Divided, still jovial, opens the box, to reveal the bones of a human skeleton.
"Why, from Asdrubael Vect! He sent this to me, shielded in a particularly baffling combination of refractor and Gellar field. I could not discern what it was until I opened it. It was in thanks for the inclusion of the Kabals in my Black Crusade," Divideds eyes grew cold, "though he made me earn them by burning as much of Commorragh as I could lay my hands on. Regardless, when I opened it I was most surprised, for my daemon-hosts that usually serve as my bodyguard began to burn! I had to seal them in the Dark Holds here on the Eternal War until I can find suitable hosts for them."
With comical daintiness, the Daemon Prince lifts a femur between clawed thumb and forefinger, gesturing with it like some genteel noble.
"This, I have learned, is the skeleton of one of the many forgotten lesser Imperial Saints, Saint Ward, whose only miracle was the banishment of the Daemon."
Saying this, Divided popped the whole bone into his mouth with obvious relish. The sounds of crushed bone fragments and the working of his fanged mouth filled the area around the throne. With a voice now laden with cold fury and threat Divided speaks again.
"What a thoughtful gift, I shall have to thank him, perhaps in person for his excellent taste."
Razor shivers with terrified ecstasy as the wake of Divideds fury reverberates about the chamber. Her eyes glinted as she spoke.
"I can only hope that you have given me a gift of similarly good taste."
Divided barked another laugh, and again gestured magnanimously.
" But in all seriousness My Lord, why have you given me this gift? I am sure this was not from the kindness of...heh...your own heart, there must be something you can gain from it?" She giggled again ooze dripping from her mask.
"Quite so my dear, though I think that you will find he will be the key to the next stage of a certain piece of your research. This research, in turn, is the key to a new stage in my war against the decaying Imperium. Do you know the Ordo Militum?" She snorted.
" Yes I've heard of it, I, unfortunately, do not know specifics of the branch.
"Just so, they are little known and do not operate with a high degree of infamy. They are, however, horribly relevant. Amongst other things, these Imperial dogs attempt to police the un-liberated and blind Adeptus Astartes of the Corpse-Emperor."
Divided sneered down at Razor, relishing his next words.
"Lord Inquisitor Zevren Deckard has become, to that end, an expert on Space Marine gene-seed."
A wide, sadistic grin spread across her mask, which was in fact a fanged maw, at the mention of Astartes gene-seed. An insane cackle erupted from her throat, echoing through the great hall.
"Oh My Lord," she bowed low, looking at the floor, "this is a most gracious and productive gift. I will extract the information from him through any means necessary. Hopefully he does not break too soon."
She looked back up with a wide, evil, fanged smile while her long black tongue hung out. Razor laughed insanely at the cruel and merciless ideas running through her broken mind.
"Do not take too long, my Dark Mechanicus needs to remain productive. But do not," and the menace in Divideds voice gained the mass and taste of a dying star, "do not dare to waste him, or lose the secrets he holds.
"I wouldn't dare waste such a precious subject. I intend to use him to my full advantage. For the glory of the Empire and the Gods of Chaos." Razor replies, her levity and joyfulness removed from her tone at the sound of his voice. She straightened her back again.
" I will update you my Lord on my progress." With that said the hologram disappears, leaving Divided alone to his own thoughts.
