When you ask about recordings, you are met with most people not allowing you access without authorization from a higher official. I would not say you had access to the 40k wiki no. If only it were that easy! You can roll some social skills to attempt to be granted access to something specific. Your new purity seal grants you some help in that regard. Once you have access, you can do a logic test to gleen something useful, or an appropriate lore test depending on what you are looking for.
"The hero is supposed to have single handedly destroyed a biological factory of some sort on the planet of Grangold, in addition to many other feats. It was a major turning point. How he finally died is not known to me, but the sisters would likely know."

"The Angevin Crusade had many warriors. The Imperial Guard and the Sisterhood as well as many Rogue Traders and Noble Houses. It is by these that this sector remains. The Storm Warden Chapter has always made its home on Sacris here in the Calixis sector, though I know little of that chapter, but they would pay respects to the shrine on occasion. The Sisters and their pilgrims were the most frequent visitors. The Black Templars visited the last time they were in the sector, but my memory is not what it once was. That is all I can recall.


The hero's casket was very large, it could hold an Astartes. It housed an internal stasis chamber that preserved the body.

" Little is known of the Hero. Some believed he was of one of the Iron Hand clans. This was during a time of much infighting within the Iron Hands, which lead to the creation of the Sons of Medusa sub-chapter. We opted to not find out, and let him be honored by everyone. Other chapters were not so in favor of this, but it was decreed by the war council of Grangold, so they complied." Servitors work tirelessly to service the Dreadnought as you question the behemoth.

"Brother Leon the honored tech-marine told us of the bunker. The Sons of Medusa had tried to set-up a fortress on Grangold shortly after they became an official chapter, the Bale-Chider assault prevented this from ever coming to fruition. I suspect the bunker was part of that failed attempt. The Unknown hero had not always been kept at that shrine, it was later moved there in the last 200 years when we were given the responsibility to watch over it. The Sons of Medusa helped to fortify the location, before they moved on. It is not uncommon for the Iron Hands to have such caches, it is possible the chapter intended to return one day to claim it, or to keep it there incase the Bale-Chider or some other threat became eminent."

Brother Leon:
" They were with us during the Angevin Crusade. St. Drusus himself had blessed them during the scourge of Grangold. Many believe the Unknown Hero is a Son of Medusa, but no apothecary would defile his tomb to confirm it. Maybe it is better he remain unknown. It could fuel a clan war within the Iron Hands if his name was revealed."

Brother Leon:
Hail to you tech-brother. We are in fine repair. We heard you found a cache of the Sons of Medusa on the planet. Those are considered lost brothers by some, but they did good for this sector once. It may seem strange, but we miss Grangold. Before the mutants came it had been a very long time before we got a chance to fight for the Emperor. Sentry duty is a dreary task.

Very well Brother The Dreadnoughts take defensive positions on the plateau while Brother Leon completes the repairs to the relay. Before you were working on the Dreadnoughts was my understanding.Brother Leon gets the relay up and running. You hear the Watch Captain asking for a sit-rep.

Gaius:
I was just giving you more information, its up to you how you use it. I think that was appropriate.

When you get to the Shrine the Cherubim flies forward and begins to sing a hymn of the Emperor. An underground path is revealed. with a door at the bottom of a small set of stairs. Shall I open the door now Master Astartes? The Cherubim's voice is that of a strange robotic child.

Brother Leon's Fellowship+5 for being a Techmarine + another 5 for exceptional tech roll prior 50: 1d100 ⇒ 7 Wow you are pretty lucky

I see. What will become of the Sarcophagus of the Unknown Hero were we to leave? The Ancient warrior asks, his voice without emotion.


Ironclad Dreadnought Iron Hands

You truly are blessed by the Omnissiah brother. What was this business you wanted to speak with us about? I will give you a +5 to your fellowship as a circumstance bonus due to your impressive technical abilities.

Tellemachus:
Yeah, I understood all of that. Go ahead.


Ironclad Dreadnought Iron Hands

Excellent job Brothers. Let us speak once you are ready.

The two ancient behemoths begin to move. Elder Brother Gazerich issues an order to his Iron Hand brother. Our Deathwatch brother have this sector, let's watch the other side of the mountain in case any attempt to be sneaky.

The Dreadnoughts take up positions overlooking the other side of the mountain.

The atmosphere has changed since the last visit by the Sisters. Some of the pilgrims that came with them stayed here and started a colony at the base of the Plateau. We only venture as far as the Plateau, and usually not even that far lately due to the constant attacks from heretical mutants. If you retrieve the Sarcophagus, what possible reason would we remain here? I assure you we have kept it safe, even under such conditions. What business is it you wish to speak of?

He looks up at the sky that is beginning to blacken. They will be here soon. You should take positions up here. They can scale the wall, but it slows them down some, and those that try to take the path make easy targets.

YeeeeeeeeeeeooW! You hear odd screams coming from the base of the plateau. Figures are now beginning to register on the Auspex.

When Brother Gaius and Leon make it up to the Dreadnoughts they are welcomed by one that still has his face semi visible in the center of the huge war-machine.

Well met Brothers. It has been some time since someone has come to honor this shrine. The planet has been sick of late. I understand you have also come to resupply us?
