We have some indications but nothing exact. Most likely, they would base their operations in the Underhive where they can more easily move about undetected and draw more to their dark ways without alerting too much to the local Imperial presence. Being undermanned as is, we don't have much of a presence in the Underhive with the Adeptus Arbites or many PDF forces. Much is left up to local hive gangers to maintain some sort of order really. As long as they don't overstep their bounds we have left them alone for the most part. I have some agents looking in to see if they could be behind this, but so far reports indicate they are not. Indeed, quite the opposite, they seem to be at a loss to try and stop it and are afraid we shall place blame on them," Octavian reported to Shaddam. He was growing increasingly frustrated with the fact that he couldn't get a lock on what was behind all this. He knew that Exterminatus was not in danger of being called for a while...or so he hoped. He had no real clue how deep the cult had its tentacles. Despite the common man's fears, Inquisitors were not so easy to call such a drastic measure unless it was the only option to eliminate a deep-seeded corruption. Despite what Shaddam may have thought though, if it was called, it was unlikely that any of them would make it off the planet alive.
