Honestly Inquisitors getting "dissapeared by accident" is not as uncommon as one might think, heck Catachan has practically made a sport out of it.

My knee jerk reaction would say that the partitioners are living in borrowed time… but knowing the inquisition, the next guy could just as easily see that there was nothing there to be flustered over and “overlook” the business preceding his arrival.

Godwin was way too arrogant. That was one of the most unnecessary deaths ever. He could have just left and been like "that was interesting, but more harmless peasant stuff."

Wait I got a very different message from this... I got the idea that this was an Imperial agent who was so ready to prosecute that he had become blind to all else. The two people who ordered his death, Aiesha and Weram, are his allies who have realized he's beyond saving. Weram was talking to him at the beginning, so is also clearly an acolyte of the same Inquisitorial warband. The Imperial Creed doesn't care HOW the Emperor is worshipped, as long as he is worshipped. A lot of religions take this and symbolize the Emperor as the sun, a season, or even a box with weird geometry. So the villain in this story was Godwin, he was blind to the fact that he was ready to massacre innocent Imperial citizens on the chance that they might be heretics someday. Like he reached the cube, and it was literally just a cube. No magic, no warp, nothing. The people being "saved" are the other agents of the warband, since Godwin is unhinged and putting them all at risk. They probably set this whole thing up with the bishop to test him.

@catwithsomeears2206

@@hawkshot867 I can see this going both ways. The Inquisitor is definitely approaching this situation far too bull headed and it cost him. However, he is correct in the the worshipped artifact is nothing but just some mundane object *for now* and could be corrupted in the future, plus the sister is a psyker (hazy on lore if that is bad or normal). I think the best approach to this situation would have been to not go full purge mode, keep calm and play along with the show. Afterward either speak directly with the priest in private or go back to your team and weight options. There is no clear heresy now, but definitely some things that are not best practice and leave openings for heresy the future. Lay out a plan, make some adjustments and everyone is happy and heresy free or you can deal with the heretics WITHOUT the diplomatic incident. All in all, I agree that the inquisitor was too purge happy but the traces of heresy can be seen. Poor fool just wasn't inquisitive enough.

@hawkshot867

Жыл бұрын

​@@catwithsomeears2206 Sure I agree for the most part. I just don't think there actually was any signs of heresy... Like the bishop explained that the box was their symbol for the Emperor, and even by Godwin's admission it was just a normal box. If worshipping icons/idols was against Imperial Creed I'd agree that they were heretics, but it isn't and they weren't... And one of the big points of Eisenhorn is that an over eager and over zealous puritan eager to prosecute good imperial citizens is arguably just as bad, if not worse, than a chaos cult. Like, the most heretical thing in this story was Godwin.

@@hawkshot867 I'd also say that while his death won't go unnoticed, he is still just an acolyte. the inquisition sometimes intentionally send young inquisitors like him on various missions to test if they got the right stuff to do their duty. This incident could be seen as him failing a test of patience and subtlety, or even a test of faith. With such unwavering power at their fingertips, nothing polices the inquisition more than other inquisitors. Such bloody filtering is needed to keep the ordos pure, like how the pool filtered out his unclean blood to become pure once more.

No, they are not screwed, because the Ecclesiarchy is a *powerful* institution within the Imperium. The Ecclesiarchial representatives on the planet will close ranks, and can easily offer a convincing cover story for what happened to Interrogator Godwin. Remember that the Interrogator went into the cathedral alone, and out of vox contact with his retinue. It wouldn't be the first time a foolhardy Inquisitor (or Inquisitor-in-training) met a tragic and untimely demise in an ancient aedifice of the Imperium. Old buildings and catacombs can be unstable, even at the best of times, you know. The Emperor protects, but no amount of armour of contempt can protect a man from several thousand tons of crumbling masonry. Or a fall into a bottomless pit. And Inquisitors _have_ gone rogue before. Who outside of that Cathedral could refute the narrative that Godwin was lacking in faith, and was struck down by the God-Emperor for his apostasy upon coming face to face with a holy relic of one of the Emperor's saints?

Exterminatus incoming :) Plus, this would be a great setting for a long story

Recognizing that he intends to call everyone present heretics, dispite having no real proof, Aiesha and Weram (also Inquisitorial acolytes) feed Godwin to the crowd in the belief that one death now is better than the countless later.
