Following close behind commissioners and priest, hundreds of other imperial guards followed. This was entirely different from his home world where barely any guardsmen roamed. Though he's seen his fare share of war this was simply unbelievable. Carrying his grenade launcher with both hands, scanning the area for any anomalies, one guardsmen whispered in his ear. "You hear, we're fighting Eldar." Corking an eyebrow, Brian had never even heard of such a race. He'd only been recently transferred to 7th, what lay in the outside was completely oblivious to him. "What's an Eldar?" Brian asked, still following the commissioner but aimed closer to the priest. Dismissing the nameless guardsmen, he couldn't help but listen to his commissioner. Threatening, talking of death, giving away their position, this seemed insane among all accounts. Was their no recognition for guardsmen, respect for the fellow soldier; not in their eyes. "People say Eldar are an army of ghosts." Turning to face the guardsmen, Brian snickered brightly but making sure the commissioner wouldn't hear. "An army of ghosts? That's just ridiculous." Still snickering to himself, he walked ahead leaving the guardsmen to his own fear induced thoughts.<br/>Noticing he was on the front line position, this meant he would be first to see combat, and die. Who ever these Eldar were, they couldn't be any more fearsome than Tyranid or Dark Eldar, in that moment he figured it out. He dismissed the Dark Eldar till this point. These were those vile creature counter part, but what were their motives. He followed trying to contemplate and decipher these Eldar in his mind. Starring towards the skies, Valkyries fly above carrying Storm Troopers, his elite brother in this battle. Envying their position amongst the guardsmen, Brian wished a spot among their rank.... if he survived. Given the current circumstances of this unknown enemy, this might be more troublesome than anticipated. Breathing in and exhaling, gripping his grenade launcher tight, readying for fire. He would easily let out rounds without thought if another army suddenly appeared.
