IC: The necron fleet appears suddenly over Nephes, a breif energy blip on scaners before their cloaking systems come online and veil them from the other combatants. Dagorekh watches several streams of data encompassing the course of the fighting that has so far errupted on the planet. "Humpf! These humans seem to make a mess of everything they do. But the presence of eldar on this planet troubles me. It is possibl I suppose that we might form some mutaul aggreement with the humans in this area, but this apes rarely seem to see any form of sense. Except when a gun is pointed at their head that is." He turns to face his council, who are all gathered on bridge with him. "So, what do you all think? I must confess to certain level of indescision."

Sarumanekh is the first to speak, "I am neither diplomat nor general, I am a scientist. But I know that this artefact will be far harder to secure, as I was not the one to put it here."

Cortekh looks at the cryptekh is surprise, "then who did?"

Sarumanekh's eyes glintwith an uncocieled level of glee, "Acremex of course. Some people have claimed I am mad-"

Forenekh gives a confirmin grunt and Sarumanekh gives him a savage look, but continues, "but he is truely insane. Brilliant perhaps, but insane none the less. He won't say a word on the artefact's location, not even to me, and he is permitted to do so by his oath. He seems to think it will be, 'fun' for us to scour the whole world looking for it."

"Forgive my interuption," says Forenekh, "but isn't that exactly what you attempted to do to us?"

"I told you where it was, I even gave you several hints as to how to aquire it. I just thought I would test you a little. This I garantee will be different."

Dagorekh considers for a moment, staring blankly out into space. "It would make the task of aquiration far easier if we weren't being harrassed by the humans. Very well, I shall speak to them, but make sure that the transmission can only be raced back to empty space."

Sarumanekh nods, "a simple task Dagorekh. Consider it already done." The necron overlord nods to his court, who dismiss themselves to their various duties. Sarumanekh is the only one who remains, tmporarily replacing one of the crew in order to cloak the transmission.

Suddenly, across every Imperial communications system on the planet, Dagorekh's voice and/or face come through. "Listen to me humans. I am Dagorekh, Lord of Silence and Arbiter of the Isandrekh dynasty. I propse an offer. You it seems are having some problems with a certain alien pest, and I have a need to examine your planet to, re-aquire a certain artefact. I will aid you in eliminating the eldar on this planet, if you can garrantee my survey and extraction teams safe movement on the planet. Otherwise it will be nessecary for me to aquire the artefact by force, and neither of us want that do we?"
