The temptation to tell the truth was almost too great to bare, but she knew that they would be monitoring her comms, and would probably activate the self-destruct of the suit if she said anything against the greater good. For the moment, she had to maintain the illusion that she was loyal to the Tau... But there might be a way to tell them something without her comms. "My men can hold forever, as they all fight for the Greater Good." The suit held up a fist, with her thumb and little finger both pointed upwards. It was an old Imperial Guard signal that her father had taught her, meaning "Quiet, the enemy is close." With no small amount of luck, they would get the message that she couldn't say her real feelings... Or, much more likely, they, either, wouldn't understand an old Imperial Guard hand sign, or would take it to mean the Heretics around them as the enemy. A pair of Stealth-suits reappeared as they smashed into the ground next to her and continued to fire with their burst cannons.

Watching the battle from the other side of the Warp Portal, Lord Rothan smiled as the Emperor's Angels of Death descended on the battlefield. "My Lord, the Corpse Emperor's minions have arrived, they are pushing us back." said one of the Aspiring Champions.

"You talk as though I did not realize this turn of events." replied Rothan. "Call a full retreat, our objectives here have been succeeded... I believe it is time for phase 2." he said, before stepping into the large warp portal and onto the battlefield, his large wings catapulted him into the air and onto a large rock, to make sure he was in full view of everyone. "SERVANTS OF THE EMPEROR!!!" he boomed over the sounds of the battle. Everyone would hear him. Several squads that were close enough opened fire at him. Bolter Rounds and Rockets stopping just before reaching him, simply hovering motionless. "YOU HAVE FOUGHT VALIANTLY, COMMENDABLE HOW YOU HAVE ENTERED THE BATTLE AND IMMEDIATELY TURNED THE TIDE!!!" he looked around "BUT LOOK AT WHAT YOU ARE FIGHTING FOR!!! A PLANET OF XENO'S!!! OUR SWORN ENEMIES!!! YET YOU FIGHT SIDE BY SIDE WITH THEM!!! YOU NEED TO FACE THE FACTS, SPACE MARINES, THE IMPERIUM IS DEAD... THE EMPEROR IS CRYING IN HIS GOLDEN GRAVE!!! HIS GRAND VISION FOR THE UNIVERSE IS DESTROYED... AND YOU HAVE ALLOWED IT TO BE SO... JOIN ME, AND WE SHALL CRUSH THESE FILTHY XENO'S AND RE-TAKE THIS UNIVERSE FOR THE GLORY OF THE IMPERIUM, AND THE DARK GODS!!!" he yelled.

As he spoke, Viqtor watched the Chaos Lord, his Servo Skull fed him data on the appearance. "That's... Oh no..." The Chaos Lord continued his speech, but Viqtor wasn't listening, he opened a vox to the [i]Inferno[/i] "[i]INFERNO[/i], THIS IS INQUISITOR REMLY!!! MY SERVO SKULL IS FEEDING YOU COORDINATES, BY ORDER OF THE INQUISITION, I ORDER YOU TO DISREGARD ALL OTHER ORDERS AND LOCK ONTO THOSE COORDINATES AND OPEN FIRE WITH EVERY CANNON AVAILABLE!!! YOUR TARGET IS A PRIMUS-LEVEL OBJECTIVE!!!" he screamed into the vox-caller. Orders were that he was to be killed by Exterminatus... Since that was out of the question, a volley of Nova Cannon fire was the next best thing. He then voxed to the others "ALL UNITS, GET CLEAR OF THE CHAOS LORD, [i]INFERNO[/i] IS ABOUT TO OPEN FIRE!" he roared at the vox-caster.
