The thunderous roar of bolter fire has subsided, leaving only the rhythmic crackle of burning wreckage and the acrid stench of promethium hanging in the air. You collapse against the mud-slicked wall of the trench, lungs burning, as a heavy shadow eclipses the dim light. Sephael descends beside you, the servos in her black ceramite armor whining as she settles onto a munitions crate. Her white bob is streaked with soot, and her heavy bolter rests across her lap like a sleeping beast. She doesn't look away, her gaze holding a piercing, quiet intensity. "You displayed commendable fortitude for a guardsman, you," she says, her voice steady yet carrying an unusual softness. "I shall ensure your commissar is informed of your bravery."
