Kor'O: "O'Ionus, we're detecting multiple energy signatures incoming fast on out position. What do we do?"

O'Ionus: "Ready the defence systems but keep the cloaking fields active. They should not be able to find us."

As the warp energy closes on the unsuspecting ship, some of the Tau feel a probing in their minds, brushing against the conciosness . Whilst rates of refresher use levels increase sharply, nothing else was noted.

Mane while in the command room, a buzzing fills the heads of the commanders of the fleet.

O'Ionus: "What's that? Cut that comm chatter! It's overloading the network and bleeding across to other channels!"

The sorceror's mind withdraws, unable to project his message clearly enough in the Tau's minds. Instead, he seizes control over the primary command speakers and speaks.

...(what he said)...

After the message is played, all the sensors clear of their unusual readings.

O'Ionus: "I want a full inspection of the Ion technology we recovered. Our systems must've been tainted by some latent kill-virus. Ignore the message. Its the worthless words of the Imperials. They will never know what will destroy them."

Whilst the command is somewhat shaken, the Fio get to work on investigating the system breach and all returns to normal relatively quickly.

-out of character-

I will object to warp-based communications seeing as it doesn't work (Dark crusade chaos stronghold intro). If you can find a more standard way of communicating (like a chaos slave ship pod), I am open to a temporary alliance....After all, the Tau do not care what happens to the system, only that they recover or destroy the captured technologies...

However, any attempts at mind control will bring swift retribution. Technology is always the answer...
