Kill-team: Ezekiel, Raziel, Guthorm, Quintus.
Back at the Watch Station, the Astartes analyze all the info acquired. They determine it will take around 2 years to complete the excavations at the mining site. Their commander assigns them to the defense of the mining site for the next two years, supervised quarterly by the Inquisitor.
They return to Rheelas, and take charge of the defenses. During their stay, they're contacted by a Tau scientific expedition, offering to help them. After strained negotiations they accept, and with the help of the Taus they proceed with the excavation.
After two years, they finally complete the operation, uncovering a 60 meters tall plasteel statue of an Astartes from a lost chapter, holding in its outstretched arms the two halves of a Necron monolith.
Back at the watch station, the Forge Master has grave news. From the Necron artifact the Astartes recovered previously, a drop of an unknown liquid has slowly generated a Necron Warrior, now kept in a statis field. The artifact seems to be part of the monolith, probably some kind of device to bring forth the return of the Necrons.
Raziel is convinced that both the monolith and the artifact must be destroyed, but the Inquistor disagrees.
