"We can, but we rarely do so, except in private contemplation or in an area of absolute sanctity."

His eyes widen a bit as Zouichi describes the nature of the ship, and hisses. "It is like an Ork Rok, or a Space Hulk then. One of our duties as Templars is to explore such things, and cleanse them of dangerous Xenos while retrieving any valuable archeotech we find. Hmm. I am surprised everyone does not wear armor around all the time, if the ship is so mysterious. I would not send men to explore such a place without Terminator plate, such as Master Cargn wears."

The difference in Cargn's armor and Erhart's is significant. Erhart is massive, and powerful in his armor, standing some 8 feet. Cargn is closer to 11, and his armor is far, far thicker, though also much slower to manuever. Erhart moves with inhuman grace, whereas the Terminators have a lumbering inevitability to them.

"There are only two paces to the life of a Templar. Times of training and prayer, and times of War. Though I have found that every battle has a tempo which is peculiar to it."
