The Judge became acquainted with three other prisoners, who had all undergone the same Wraithbone surgery. As the weeks went on, they were each taken away to be indoctrinated through hypnotherapy into xenos cultures. Alastair learned the speech and movements of the Aeldari language, while the Mayor received the education of a chaos cultist and learned some warpcraft, and the Judge and Tasha became accustomed with Ork speech and terminology. The Judge, however, refused to acknowledge that he had learned anything and resisted until he was left alone. Featuring players Del Borovic, Guy Bradford, Josh Halbot, and Tyler Hewitt, and Dungeon Master Ryan LaPlante.

Judge Rex awoke in a cell, strapped to a slab with Rex 2 muzzled in a nearby kennel, having been abducted from the Lucky Strike. One of his captors, Tina, said she was working on behalf of a client and would be surgically inserting Wraithbone into his body. The Judge failed to bargain with his captor, and the surgeries continued for 68 days until he made a desperate play to free himself but only managed to get his beloved cybermastiff killed in the attempt. After more than 2 months of constant procedures, he was released into a general area, along with 3 other prisoners who had just been through the same ordeal.

The agents and their allies faced off against Aun’o Artemis, who was operating a massive battlesuit. Damien drew on his psyker abilities and successfully commanded Aun’o Artemis to eject from the suit, leaving the Ethereal unprotected. Solomon struck Aun’o Artemis as the Tau flew through the air towards him, cleaving him through and revealing that the so-called Ethereal had been an imposter. The battle over, Morgan declared that the Tau’va had been saved and the Tau could return home, which was enough to persuade the xenos to leave the planet and resolve their mission. The Kroot resolved to stay on the planet, waiting for their own to pick them up, as they no longer trusted the Tau. The agents set off, taking Whistler and Stevius with them, for now.

The agents, Gue’vesa gangs, and Kroot laid siege to the central dome that housed Aun’o Artemis, fighting Fire caste warriors, drones, and a Crisis Battlesuit. Damien unleashed warpfire, Solomon threw photon grenades to disorient the Tau warriors, and Morgan used her smaller size and nimbleness to deftly move through her enemies as she attacked. Solomon dealt the killing blow to the Tau inside the Crisis suit, but then an even large figure in a massive battlesuit stepped out: Aun’o Artemis.

Brother Solomon informed the Vespid of Aun’o Artemis’s betrayal of the Tauva and of his illegitimate claim to his position. The Vespid said they would determine the truth of his corruption, and would kill Solomon and his people if it was in fact deception. Excella Rhodes, Spartacus, and the Agents decided on their plan of attack and Solomon informed the Vespid through the helmet they had given him. The Vespid took off, and fire caste warriors began to counter, Morgan gave the single, and all their allies began their attack. Unbeknownst to them all, a Tau Ghostkeel Battlesuit had been activated.

As the agents made plans to challenge the Ethereal, Spartacus heard how Morgan spoke of xenos and he no longer trusted her to help the Kroot find a way off the planet. Solomon, however, considered his alliance with the Kroot to be sincere, and promised to help them. Spartacus took Solomon to treat with the Vespid, but as they approached the Hive, it seemed to be emitting harmful radiation. Damien, Morgan, and Excella Rhodes, meanwhile, devised a plan to draw the Fire Caste into an ambush, but it would only work if the Vespid agreed to be used as a distraction.

The agents returned to the Kroot dome, Spartacus summoned Tau that might be sympathetic, and Stevius left to round up Gue’vesa leaders to discuss the current situation. Morgan showed the Tau Romeo’s recordings of the battle and the bodies they had found in the woods. The Tau were hesitant to accept duplicity within their ranks, but accepted that unintentional mistakes may have been made. The agents followed a line of questioning that had the Tau recognizing inconsistencies coming from the Ethereal’s office, but that same line brought up the earlier discussion about the Horus Heresy, which completely unmoored Solomon. Stevius returned with Gue’vesa leaders, and they now need to strategize about how to deal with an Ethereal that may be lying to his people.

The agents fought off the last of their Tau ambushers. Solomon had a troubling sense of a desecration within the cave, and upon investigating, they discovered the bodies of Gue’vesa, Kroot, and a few Tau, all of which had been there since around the establishment of Fontus. Spartacus then arrived, and after explaining what had happened, all evidence pointed to the theory that the people who had gone missing during the warg hunts had, in fact, been killed by the Tau. The warg may not even exist. Spartacus declared that the Kroot contract with the Tau was now broken, and the agents revealed their true identities to him. They decided to reach out to the Tau who had seemed to dissent during the meeting with Aun’o Artemis, and rode off on some Kroot oxen back to Fontus.

The agents found themselves isolated in the woods, ambushed by Tau in stealth battle suits. Solomon quickly discovered that the weapons that had been provided to them by the Tau had been sabotaged, Morgan tried to drag Stevius to safety but couldn’t entirely avoid him being hit, and Damien drew on the warp to alter the flow of time around some of their enemies to delay their attack. They focused their efforts on taking out the Tau who were still moving, and turned their attention to the two left at Damien’s mercy.

The agents selected their weapons and boarded transport to the site of the Great Hunt, accompanied by Stevius, Romeo, and Whistler. They set down in a forest at some distance from the other teams and fanned out to search the area. As they approached a cave mouth in search of wargs in the area, they were suddenly set upon by gatling gun fire emanating from a stealth battle suit.

In the final rounds of the contests for the right to join the Great Hunt, Stevius miraculously beat Excella Rhodes at regicide and cleared his debt with her, and Damien handily won his contest of warp manipulation. Back at the Kroot camp, the agents were welcomed more fully into the clan. Solomon shared the teachings from his bible with the Kroot and had Damien transcribe additions from the Kroot themselves. Morgan and Damien learned, through their own admissions to Alice and Spartacus, that the Kroot were aware of the internal conflicts within the Tau and maintained a sense of independence from them.

Having created their own Gue’vesa gang with the Kroot and Stevius Funkhauser, the agents prepared for a contest to prove their worth and join the Great Hunt. Having dressed in the style of the Kroot, they met with the other gangs, and were instructed to choose their individual contests. Morgan won her sharpshooting contest handily, but Solomon’s unarmed combat went awry when his opponent was mistaken for charging a Tau and was cut down, leaving some uncertainty about the whether Solomon was the real winner. Damien has yet to compete in a contest of warp manipulation, but next up is Stevius, who will be facing Excella Rhodes in a game of regicide.

After their meeting with Aun’O Artemis, Damien was reeling, but Morgan managed to bring him back to himself by invoking the unwavering cheerfulness of Valentyne. Outside the dome, Solomon was approached by a Tau, who informed him that he could ask any drone about the fall of mankind and the Emperor, but Solomon found the idea laughable and the others didn’t correct him. After failing to get access to the Tau who were also present during their audience with the Ethereal, the changed tack and decided to investigate the mysterious Great Hunt. They spoke with their Kroot sponsor and decided to form a hunting party with them. The next step is to join the hunt, but will only earn the right to do so if they can win in a contest of single-combat between hunting party champions.

Morgan and Damien received electoos to access to the entire hamlet of Fontus and recited the Tau Oath Allegiance, renouncing allegiance to the Emperor, while Solomon refused. After getting a primer on how to behave, Morgan and Damien gained an audience with the Ethereal, Aun’o Artemis, and came away with more information than they expected: the Tau appear to be capable of faster-than-light travel without entering the Warp, there seems to be an subtle undercurrent of dissent within the Tau regarding their current course of action on Fontus, and the Tau are aware of Alpha Legion and the entire saga of the Horus Heresy and its effect on the Imperium.

Though the agents panicked at the approaching red eyes, the Kroot child who came in with Morgan identified the animals not as wargs, but as Kroot hounds. She shooed them away, but the runt, “Whistler,” stayed behind and Solomon befriended it by feeding it scraps. They decided to get electoos in order to gain an audience with the Tau Ethereal, but Solomon declined when he realized he would have to take an oath of allegiance to the Tau’va. Morgan and Damien, however, prepared to repeat the Tau Oath Allegiance. Featuring players Del Borovic, Guy Bradford, Josh Halbot, and Tyler Hewitt, and Dungeon Master Ryan LaPlante.

The Inquisitorial band were led by Stevius to meet the Kroot. Solomon agreed to their leader, Spartacus’s, offer to share a meal with him. When the meal turned out to be a human torso, the band hesitated, but realized they had little choice in the matter, so they all ate and Spartacus agreed to sponsor their stay on the planet Vorix. Only when Morgan returned to meet Damien and Solomon as they turned in, did Solomon notice a pack of wargs had followed her.

The Inquisitorial band, disguised as Ministorum priests, landed on the planet Vorix at a bustling hamlet. They were disturbed to see autonomous metal beings moving around, and Damien especially was overwhelmed by the xenos strangeness surrounding him, though Solomon managed to calm him down. Stevius led them through a security checkpoint, where the Tau were courteous and welcoming, and they were granted limited access to the area for the next 24 hours, at the end of which they’ll have to leave or find a sponsor to vouch for them for a longer stay. There has been mention of an upcoming hunt of wargs, but the band will need to investigate to get a fuller picture of the situation on the planet.

Morgan escaped her pursuers from the bar, and the Inquisitorial band boarded Stevius’s ship on the way to the Tau-infested planet Vorix. On the way, they debated what else they could offer their smuggler other than the auramite Aquila pendant he was expecting as payment. Having come to no agreement, they took Stevius up on his offer to play regicide and turned their game into a wager. Damien won them free passage to and from Vorix, allowing them to keep all their auramite and offering only to protect Stevius from those on the planet looking to collect on his debts.

The planet Vorix has been infested by Tau and the agents have been tasked with removing them. Morgan, Damien, and Solomon donned their disguises as Imperial preachers and boarded the Janus II space station to meet their contact, Stevius Funkhauser, and procure passage to Vorix. Hoping to pay him less than his asking price, they plied him with drinks first, but when Morgan realized the bar didn’t take thrones as payment, they tried to dash. The bartender, however, pulled out a lasgun, Morgan retaliated with her knife to fatal effect, and she tried to follow her fleeing companions through a now angry mob of people.

The Lucky Strike re-entered the Warp, and Morgan informed Solomon and Damien that they were in greater danger, but did not relay that the danger was now in the form of the Alpha Legion. Avarice briefed them on their next mission. The Tau had inexplicably established themselves on an Imperial world and blockaded the planet against a small force of Imperial ships. The agents have been tasked with resolving the current impasse and removing the Tau from the planet without it turning into a firefight. They will be entering the system disguised as preachers and hope to infiltrate the humans who have seemingly joined the Tau’s cause.
