text: You nod, holding out your hand. Khalid grabs you by the hand, and stares into your eyes.
  
  
  "This'll be simple enough. Just don't resist. Understood?"
  
  
  "Got it," you say.
  
  
  "With the Dark Gods, the Corpse-Emperor himself and anyone else out their with the power to oversee this bargain, I pledge these two souls together by the binding contract, that we will remain allies into all ways possible. Should we break this contract, let our souls be forfeit."
  
  
  You hear the chattering of thousands of daemonic voices as they watch your deal. You feel your mind be flooded into by Khalid's, as consciousness, in the way normal humans feel it, fade.
  
  
  You find yourself floating in a void, surrounded by an ever-shifting mass of golden energy, that seem to make up Khalid. You look around, as you see his thoughts floating around you. You reach out your hand, touching the thought screams as you hear Khalid's voice boom.
  
  
  "Is the big freak literate? Is it even sentient? I would think not. If I had to look at that face in the mirror every morning I'd kill myself."
  
  
  You frown, touching another.
  
  
  "Is the dumbass seriously using Kyros' former lieutenants, those who enslaved his people, as his lieutenants? He saw them betray Kyros! And now the dumbass is reading your thoughts, no doubt learning that while I'll remain loyal to him, he's a fucking wanker."
  
  
  You touch another one.
  
  
  "You, Karth Uwais, are ugly. See? I'm not even slightly lying."
  
  
  Well, you've got what you need from his thoughts. Still, in the golden fog of energy, you can see what you assume are memories drifting around. You see his staff floating through the void before disappearing, before you see a wolf bound through the fog. You can hear distant screams emanate through the fog from some horrifying memory. You see Kyros march across the fog and step back nervously despite knowing he's only a memory. 
  > You follow the wolf
  You walk after the wolf, as it howls skyward and runs. You head forward, as it begins to morph into a strange space marine wearing an ancient power armor, with a wolf hide over his shoulder. The scene changes to a battleground, as you watch as similar space marines fight against those clad in the red and gold Khalid wore.
  
  
  You see Khalid fighting, as he ducks under a bolter round. He fires a burst of flames, engulfing another wolf-marine who howls in pain, collapsing.
  
  
  "Death to traitors!" a voice howls from the wolf-marines.
  
  
  "You will not kill my brothers! You will not destroy my planet!" Khalid roars. "You don't understand! Horus is the traitor!"
  
  
  A wolf-marine attempts to kill Khalid with his chainsword, but Khalid kills him with a burst of energy. 
  
  
  "STOP! The Emperor wouldn't do this to us! We are loyal! We're your brothers! Please!" Khalid screams.
  
  
  Suddenly, a massive pyramid materializes next to yous. Thousands of civilians are fleeing up the ramps inside. Then, a massive explosion tears through it, as a fireball engulfs all the civilians inside and fleeing into it.
  
  
  "NO!" Khalid screams, as a cry of "Traitor!" comes from both sides.
  
  
  With that, Khalid lets out a fierce scream of psychic energy, charging forward. The room gently fades to black.
