Abelard"Lord Captain." Abelard coughs slightly. "Following the rites of healing performed by the esteemed Manipulus Februs upon the implantation throne in the Sector Bionica, the machine spirits dwelling within the relic revealed something extraordinary to us."
Abelard"Upon awakening, the sacred archeotech brought several more machines back to wakefulness. After performing diagnostic rituals, the Tech-Priests discovered a secret door behind one of the devices — it was inscribed with an ancient von Valancius coat of arms. As soon as the Tech-Priests tried to enter, a genetic guardian blocked the way. It refused to open the door to anyone but Rogue Trader Seberian von Valancius or his heir."
YOU"Seberian von Valancius...? What do we know about him?"
Abelard"Therein lies the problem, Your Lordship/Ladyship. No Rogue Trader by the name of 'Seberian' is listed in any dynastic chronicle. The historitors of the flagship are also unfamiliar with the name. Why the guardian thinks it belongs to an owner that never existed is a mystery. And only you, as the actual head of the dynasty, can find the answer."

YOU"I will check the door and the guardian immediately."
Abelard"As you say, Your Lordship/Ladyship. The High Factotum has taken it upon himself to make the necessary preparations. He will meet you there."

YOU"I am intrigued, but I will get to it later. The mysteries of the Sector Bionica can wait."
