For the Oath and the Word -Chapter 1- part II

1st Company Captain Ichart Griefenherz, The Heart of the Griffon, the Regent of Mancora, appeared on the bridge of the Firefell unannounced. Clad in his Tactical Dreadnought Armor was matte black and his Monastic Scapular was in the Yellow and Crimson quartered schemed with the Griffon Rampant on the front. His Tan Cloak draped over his shoulders with a purple lining. His Relic Blade was in the sheath and he did not carry his stormbolter. His long light blond beard was sat on the top of his armor.
"Captain DeClisson," Griefenherz said in his deep voice.
"My Lord Griefenherz, I was about to vox you. As an update, we are enroute to Khymara Prime and should be arriving shortly, within the next 72 hours to our best estimation. I have received word form Commodore Horatio that Strike Cruiser Talons of the Griffon will be arriving with a 2 weeks time, with the Chapter Master, along with reinforcements from the 8th Company and other elements of the 1st Company on board. Strike Cruiser Kastell, with elements from the 10th Company will be arriving not long after we arrive," Firefell's Captain Jeanne DeClisson informed the 1st Company Captain.
"Impressive, Captain. I was actually here to give you the launch and drop orders. Since we are with in 72 hours, switch to Run Silent and see if we can sneak in to the system. Two hours out, launch the Recon teams. The other teams will be ready to deploy at a moments notice. Let me know when we make contact with the Kastell. I will need to know what forces are aboard so I can deploy them in support effectively. " 1st Company Captain Griefenherz said.
"My Lord, I'm sorry. I have anticipated that you would need that information and I have it ready for you," Captain DeClisson said as she handed the 1st Company Captain Griefenherz a datalsate.
"You constantly prove that you are the right commander for the Firefell and 1st Company, Captain DeClisson. All the honors we earn, you earn them as well," Grienherz said to Captain DeClisson.
"Thank you, My Lord," DeClisson responded.
1st Company Captain Griefenherz left the bridge and began looking over the Dataslate as he started to walk towards the Firefell's War Room.
"Captain DeClisson, We have a Warp Anomaly, ahead. An Imperial ship has appeared from the Warp. Collision imminent, if we stay on this course," announced the Auspex Operator Mateo.
"Helmsman, full stop. Vox, hail that ship. Master of Ordnance, prep weapon batteries," Captain DeClisson began ordering.
"No need to hail us Captain Jeanne DeClisson, of the Howling Griffons Strike Crusier, Firefell. I advise you to stand down, immediately. For the safety of your crew and the Adeptus Astartes on board," a voice said over the vox loud speaker.
"Captain, they have jammed our vox and are transmitting," Vox Operator Horst said.
"Ma'am, a second ship has appeared, it appears to be some class of Adeptus Astartes Strike Cruiser, I have not seen before," said the Auspex Operator Mateo.
"Yes, we have jammed your vox, and are transmitting, We can also hear you, as well. Captain DeClisson, I would like to speak, to the Howling Griffon Captain in charge of the ship along with you," the voice continued.
"This is 1st Company Captain of the Howling Griffons Chapter, Ichart Griefenherz, The Heart of the Griffon, the Regent of Mancora. I was on the bridge when your ship appeared. Who am I speaking too," Captain Griefenherz asked.
"First Company Captain Griefenherz, you can call me, Inquisitor-Lord Ares, of the Ordo Malleus of the Imperial Inquisition. Please be advised, I need to speak with you, your command staff and Captain DeClisson, in private immediately aboard my ship. This is not a request, but an order. I am sending my Ident code for you to verify my identity, " the voice said.
"Yes Inquisitor-Lord Ares. I have received your Ident Code. We will depart aboard a Thunderhawk shortly," replied Captain Griefenherz.
