Chapter 1

I was summoned by inquisitor Tyburn Graves, as were Sangius and Drakar. We were joined by another new acolyte Severus. We were told that an unskilled hiveworker called Saul Arbest had been found dead on the mid hive transit zone. He had died after his body had rejected a transplant organ. He worked for Tantalus indenture and lived in chamber 6/23 7/17. His death was susspicious and we were asked to investigate. Our cover would be employees of Coscala division, Southern zone, Hive Sibilis, and were issued passes.

Saul had a sister – Lile Arbest in Pontikus Gericus apartment 10/283

We travelled to Sauls neighbourhood and started investigating. People we questioned reported that 'spectres' – creatures with glowing red eyes, were kidnapping people every night. Sykes the reclaimer was supposed to have seen one and Evard Zedd – Sauls friend, was reported missing to local head of enforcers. He had last been seen at the temple.

We questined Sykes. He claimed to have seen two spectres in the South East. Severus then killed him for being a security risk. Apparently Sykes had been shown a datapad and noticed the inquisition logo on it. Searching his shop revealed no more clues.

We investigated the local authorities. The law enforcers seem too professional, more like they were mercenaries. The local bar seemed to be full of criminals. Both the barman and local narco boss seemed scared.

We investigated the apartment block where Saul and his sister lived but found nothing. We then decided to wait there overnight to see what happened. While we waited, three creatures with glowing red eyes arrived. We killed them. Shortly afterwards 2 enforcers arrived to investigate the gunfire. We found the enforcers reported to Sybus Moran who runs the alms house for Tantalus combine. The Alms house was the only building of importance in the south east of the sector so we went to investigate it. The receptionist was acting suspiciously and we quickly found ourselves in another gunfight. We were even assaulted by forces from the warp though I was able to close the rift by force of will before a demon could slip through. We fought our way to the upper floors of the building where we found a cult which was infecting people with a xenos parasite and performing strange transplant operations on them. We eliminated the cult and all the infected individuals.
