Summary:
Far away from everything they know on an Emperor-forsaken planet, Explicator von Halvek meets Inquisitor Riemenschneider. Bound by the mission and their duties, they are forced to work together. Yet their cooperation becomes increasingly more complicated. Not only do they have to find a way to uproot the heresy they've come to eradicate, but also how to navigate their increasingly tense interactions. Like prometheum to the fire - they cannot stop irritating one another, and that just might compromise everything.
Viktor holds her gaze.
“As you say – you do not collect picts of strange naked women, and neither do I.” He leans to the side just enough to not recline against her. “Van Halvek, what exactly is it that you are trying to do here?”
“I suppose trying not to be a strange woman. Naked or not. But I guess they don’t teach anything at Ordo Hereticus besides having a stick up one’s ass.” She rolls her eyes again.
“I would say that you are far from succeeding, seeing as I find your behavior very much strange.”
