Kabalite WarriorThe convulsing xenos is dressed in Reaving Tempest armour that has been pierced by weapons in several places. The dying warrior raises his head and stares at you. He sees Marazhai and opens his bloody mouth wide. "You..."
Kabalite Warrior"...my Dracon." The bloodied lips twist in an ugly smile. "Now that you are here... the Tempest will be avenged. Make them choke on their own blood."
YOU[Finish off the Drukhari] "Enough."
MarazhaiMarazhai stops you, his eyes burning with barely restrained anger. "The life of my property is not yours to take."

YOU"What is happening on the planet?"
Kabalite Warrior"We are... destroying one another... going insane since we left Commorragh hoping to find... find..." The Drukhari's voice fades to an unintelligible hiss.
Marazhai"Carnage. Killing enemies, or each other — it does not matter. They suffer as I have suffered, driven insane by the voice of Sai'lanthresh. In realspace it can only be drowned out by the whistling of blades and the moans of the dying."

YOU[Look around] "They have been fighting, and for a long time."
Marazhai"A heavy ordeal for Drukhari. Protracted battles in realspace require... particular dedication and ferocity." Marazhai gazes around the battlefield with a look of confusion on his face. "Hmm. Strange."

YOU"What is strange?"
Marazhai"You cannot see it, [Name], but... the very battlefield is strange. Clashes between Kabals are different from raids on mon-keigh worlds. I can draw attack vectors in my head as much as I want, picture the squad locations and so on... but it does not make sense. Nothing about this makes sense." The xenos flexes his fingers in obvious irritation.

YOU"It is time for us to go."
Kabalite WarriorThe wounded Drukhari chokes and wheezes, trying to get up. "I am..."
MarazhaiYou barely notice the swift blow — the dying xenos falls silent. Marazhai wipes the blood off his blade. "This one was already drained. Let us find another, someone full of pain and vitality."

MarazhaiMarazhai grins. "Indeed. My weapons have been sheathed for too long."

Marazhai"What if... what if the Reaving Tempest is not feuding with the Black Heart, which tracked my Kabal down here? What if they joined forces? For reasons that currently elude me. Then everything points to the fact that these warriors from my Kabal were not killed in a battle, but butchered like cattle after being brought to the front lines." Marazhai looks around and grimaces.

Marazhai"Although..." Marazhai seems to recall something, and a look of satisfaction appears on his face. "Forget it. In fact, this is just a confirmation of what kind of spectacle awaits us."

MarazhaiMarazhai watches impassively as you dispatch the xenos. "Had enough fun yet? We need to move on, straight into the maw of those who think they can outwit us."

Kabalite Warrior"...Marazhai?" The bloodied face twists into a grimace of surprise. "You are alive..."
MarazhaiMarazhai narrows his eyes. "You doubt my ability to survive? After I managed to escape the Dark City? You should not."

MarazhaiMarazhai's movements are swift and precise, making the dying Drukhari gurgle and fall silent forever. The Dracon pensively wipes the blood off his blade. "They must be taught to worship me anew."
