As Alexander travel into his main universe.. he found himself at his office in his flagship the Armageddon once more...
A pile of paperwork piled next to his desk, the chattering of the comms... And the Tv that shows the Old and familiar Federation theme song...
There is a neat pile of skull that is encased in amber of pirates he personally slaughter nearby, the Urn of his last Rimworlder and his Memorabilia of his wedding book in Cyberpunk Night city...
But now he placed more on his journey...
A Head of a Loyalist Men of Iron during the age of strife, Ahriman Wine, Vect Shrunken Head, Void Dragon Claws, Perturabo dolls, his Old Uniforms of the Golden Age of Technology, A Photo Album of The Emperor and the Primarchs, Sanguinius Feather, A Warrant of Trade by the Emperor himself, Wedding vows of Ephritta and Dimh-Yriel, Mechanicus seal, Macaldor recaff cup... Not that he would needed it..
The last item that he placed on the ever increasing pile of memorabilia... Was heartbreaking...
"Macaldor...old friend...I am glad that I met you guys...and we finally won the war..." Alexander mourned of his old friend passing... He did managed to pay respects on his grave in the Grey Knights monastery on Titan...
[Rewards?]
"Pass on that... Where are my brothers?"
*Alarm*
"Director, the Arch Traitors is here on this ship, they came from the Loading bays! We require your assistance!" One of the Guardsman stationed on this ship, and called him screaming his lungs out...
"*Sigh* I will be there and thank you for your corporation Guardsman, just don't do anything rash until I get there." Alexander sighed...
[Well that solves the issue where they are located...]
"Did you informed them?"
[No, it is fun to see how you handle this.]
"You are much more sadistic than my previous partner."
[Well, payment for making me do paperwork in your stead...]
"Touche... Better get to them before the Techpriests start a meltdown and the Imperial Guard start to hunt down my brothers... Then I get my rewards." Alexander stood up from his seat and left his office...
######
As the Light envelope the Former traitors disappeared they found themselves standing at a Loading bay of some ship...
Many of the Techpriests station nearby were too busy to notice the intrusion...
"Now then time to look for this version of Alexander..." Horus remarked.
As they wander the hallways they found a guard room nearby with a man watching tv...
"So, Ferrus wasn't lying that he was revived in this universe..." Perturabo noticed the TV nearby showing the government is doing a federal wide news of killing off a criminal. And the Guard changed the broadcast showing the live battle reports of the bugs invasion...
"And I sense there is a warp in this place but there is no chaos gods in here, as if it was like free estate... Strange..." Magnus used his powers to check the warp and found not a chaos taint but a local demons that is unaligned by any of the four...
Alpharius and Omegon managed to get a document stared at the language that is ancient terran English and a mixed gothic...
"Now where is he?"
"Why not ask someone here?"
Konrad approach the man nearby that is undergoing maintenance on one of the pipes nearby...
"Where is Alexander Solair Office?" He politely asked the man that is busy...
"The director? Well, he is in the office just in the second deck... I will take you there...." The Man turned around and saw Konrad Staring at him..
"Ni-Ni-Night Haunter~" the Man began to froth and fainted..
"Your reputation precedes you brother..." Horus joked.
"He said on the second deck... Well at least that is a start..." Perturabo growled.
As they reached the elevator many gasped of the figure before them and hurried away...as they entered the second deck.
They got lost and there is not a person in sight..
Well there is a mess hall nearby, perhaps we could get more detailed information from there? Fulgrim gave a opinion...
####
(Mess hall: Second deck)
Various people entered there for their daily meals...
It is one of many mess halls to feed the crew and citizens living in this ship, Some chatting about their day to day lives... As the chefs poured food to the endless crowd...
And their day was changed when a bunch of men entered the Mess hall...
One of them was a smoking near the door and took a glance and didn't bother the newcomers as they seen some shit of seeing Space Elves running loose and those spooky skeletons strolling about... But he noticed something is wrong and took a second look and realized they were people they didn't expected... His cigarette dropped in the floor...
Not a sound was heard, that a spoon dropping on the floor could be heard...
One of the Guardsman eyes opened with his spood filled food dropping on the floor as his mouth is gaping as Horus enter the mess hall along with the traitors Primarchs...
Those that continue eating are soldiers that were recruited from this galaxy that didn't know the people at the door... They were like those Ogryn guys but why are the people next to them freaking out?
Horus stood forth as a representative...
"Would you tell us where is Alexander Solair is?"
"The Arch traitor is here! Someone get the Director!" One of them screamed as the rest of the Soldiers scrambling for safety.. even the chefs began to hide in the emergency tunnels below their station hoping they would not be found... Many of those that ignore the newcomer realize that the people before them was dangerous if their diner buddies have that reaction and they ran off somewhere with the food in their arms...
"Seems like your reputation precede you brother." Konrad laughed as Horus frown a bit...
"Seems like these are not the regular League Soldiers we remember... And we better run..."
As the Primarch begun to be chased by a angry mob of Guardsmen... Alexander began looking for them...
"Hope they don't get cooked by my men..."
He saw the Sliver of Alpharius Armor as they passed by in another deck hallway... And chased by the Guardsmen...
"Well... There they are..." Alexander look at the mob chasing after them...
Alexander managed to convince the Mob that it was the good Horus and he is a clone just like Ferrus Manus... Most of them breathed a sigh of relieve while some are skeptical about the rest of the traitors... Alexander assured them that the Emperor have redeemed them and now they to task of assisting him...
Alexander lead them to the quarters that is hastily made for them...
"Sorry of the local outburst... My soldiers here is not from the Galaxy where we won... " Alexander smiled as he sent a Beverage Cart for them to take from...
"I could tell... But why are your plans now?" Horus grab a Amasec bottle and poured it on a whiskey cup for his size...
"Slowly intergrate the people... And prepare for the invasion to what's to come..." Alexander pour a drink of his own.
"So what happens to us?"
"Well at least try to gain some positive reputation....Horus how about you being a Dean of a Schola Progenium for Mars? Since I'm constantly busy and I don't have time, and Magnus be a Vice-dean. Mortarion would be chief doctor at the hospital in that Schola Progenium, While Fulgrim be Art Class Professor...while I prepared your Legions to be accepted by the public eyes."
"How long it would take to be fully accepted?"
"Around 2-5 years... Give or take, remember this is a galaxy where the Emperor didn't have a Grand Crusade and I am practically a tied down in this parts..."
"So politics then."
"Yup... And Right now I am just a Director of Mars or Mobile assaut Recon that is Branch of the Military forces known as the Mobile Infantry."
"Well,you can mingle with people around here and no one knows your name or what you have done in the past... Aside of the soldiers I am recruiting..." Alexander chuckle wryly...
[Don't worry the new recruit will be aware of the Primarchs presence and you don't have to worry about it...]
'So I just have to convince the old guard?'
[Yes]
'Frak you!' Alexander Groaned there are at least a 12.3 Trillion Guardsmen in Service that Alexander recruited and scattered across the federal controlled space and 2 trillion is already retired... And that is not including the Civillian Alexander promised to bring them back once they done their service or the Xenos he recruited.
Better wing it...
"Alright any questions?"
"What my task? And Konrad?" Perturabo asked.
"The Same thing I asked you when we were at the Imperium, I want you to be a Builder, I want you to make practical Hive Cities that would outshine Dorn walls... I want you to make as much Iron Cages as you can that will make the Enemy that is coming here to bleed and bleed hard they will. And Conrad Curze will the the Arbites of the night.. we may have a civilized society, but it is still not safe. There is a set of federation law books and I also hope Konrad could at least make it more viable to put criminals their rewards." Alexander spoke. Konrad and Perturabo understood this.
"And the First Hive City you would build is in Mars..."
"What about men and Resources?"
"Money is no concern for the survival of the Human Race... And all that I cherish... The First Legion that would be entering here is the Iron Warriors to fasten the process. Don't worry... I will assure you brothers, you will get the legions in this universe."
After settling the Primarch at base zero at Mars.
Alexander visited his family for a long time...
(New Texas)
He arrived at the Mansion that was his family... And the door opened revealing his father waiting for him... A meal made by his mother for a long time...
His father somehow sense his son have the aura of a seasoned veteran that seen things in life...
But he ignore it as he knows he been working hard as a director...
As Alexander returned to his bed and spoke to Theseus...
"Now Theseus... Send me the faction first, since I have freed 3 more factions slots right?"
[Confirming, Now Alexander, prepping faction choice.]
Alexander found himself standing on the same Platform that he chosen the first faction for so many years ago...
9 factions waited for his return... Along with more sub faction of Xenos...
"The High Lord Returns..." Sector General Stubbs smiled as he waited for his return...
"Brother Boreale, Sector General Stubbs, Canoness Selena." Alexander greeted them...
As he turned to the other factions, He see what old Necron still remains, but the Chaos Marines is replaced by a different one and The Orks is Ghazkull Thrakka.. and the T'au Ethereal is replaced by a Farsight Fire warrior.
[Due to your contribution in the Imperium, now certain factions is unavailable for you to choose..Such as Chaos United as your act of killing Slaanesh is accounted for...]
"Can I recuit the former traitor legions as Space Marines?"
[Possible since you managed to free them, their geneseed is available for the loyalist to use..]
"Limit size? Chapter or Legions?"
[Legions]
"Good, I am not bound by that Codex Astartes.."
The Chaos Space Marines stared daggers at Alexander as if he wanted to kill him... And the Drukhari grimace of the fact of the man before him destroyed Comoragh.
So... Now he have time choose the three...
. Sisters of Battle
. Space Marines
. T'au
Now that the Federation is majority dedicated to the Emperor faith, he have no problems now... And his wife is there...
The people already know his name so he would introduce a super human project to disguise them as the product of it... And Power armor is getting more prevalent so they would not stand out even further.
But the T'au, he grinned at least they serve as rear echelons and rear support. Despite they have cause pain in the ass for Alexander why not the invaders?
The Eldar and Necrons he choose before, was that he knew the technology and psychic prowess of these two Xenos... Had he go to Warhammer to ask a Eldar Bonesingers or the Necron Cryptek for the Necron technology and the secrets of the Eldar? There will be no alliance and they will be hostile to Alexander, at least the system have given him a roundabout way to get the faction technology without agonizing the Xenos...
[Congratulations, User for choosing the Forces of Order... Special rewards will be added later]
Alexander wryly smiled as how on earth did T'au is order?
[The Lore states-]
"Now you remind me of that bastard Leandros from the Ultramarines...hope he got eaten by a Tyranid gaunt."
[The Rewards?]
"Next day, I better need some rest."
####
In the morning Alexander had breakfast with his family... Somehow a sense of familiarity but somehow distant. After the meal he returned to the First Base he made...
"Now then... Do your thing."
A Thunderhawk came and dropped a Space Marine Great Hall dropped between the Imperial Guard Regiment HQ and the sister of Battle Ecclesiarchal Chapel dropped from orbit on the other side of the base... The Tau command center was also in the vicinity...
Their basic builders now began to build their respective faction buildings...
Orbital drop, Pristine sanctuary, Manufatorum, Holy Reliquary... Monastery, Generatorum, Geneseed Bunker, Dormitories, Assimularum, Company Chapel, Refectory, Librarium,Reclusiam, Apothecarion, Armoury, Launch Pads... Making the Base even more dangerous to attack... But also the safest in the event of the Traitor of mars, Alexander remembered..
As he enter the Great Hall he was greeted by 10 Apothecary of the faction... One of them is Blood Ravens.
"You have arrived High Lord..." The Blood Raven Apothecary spoke...
"I see my title is no longer have meaning in here..."
"Nevertheless, you are the herald of the Imperium and that doesn't change."
"Alright... What do you got for me? Can a Legion be formed?"
"As you see making Space Marines is a lot more time consuming than the Imperial Guardsmen, as they need 500 years training, but in here, I estimated that you can make a Legion in about 10 year with this Great Hall alone."
"More of it is good?"
"It is, but remind you that it costly to replace them in combat."
"I request to make 20 great halls to hasten the recruiting process... As we need the Legions to arrive."
"Understood High Lord...now excuse me if I had to ask, is my Genefather here?"
"Yes... Magnus is here and if you wished to know about your legacy... You can meet him when you have free time..."
"Many thanks." He headed deeper in the great halls...
As he enter the Echlesiarchal Chapel...
Images of the God Emperor and his loyal servants was grafted on the stained glass of the chapels walls and statues... One of them have a tapestry of him bearing the Aquila Flag of the Imperium holding his flaming sword into the darkness.
There he expected Canoness Selena waiting for him... But she was praying in the inner sanctum of the chapel that show the Emperor...
There was a Hospitaller next to the Sororitas...
"Ephritta?" He spoke silently...
The Hospitaller heard her name. As she turned around and met Alexander...
"Alexander...welcome back." She smiled...
They embraced one another under the stained glass of the emperor watching over them...
Alexander found the Eldar Webway and Dimh-Yriel came from the portal... Making her wonder where she is... But she recognized Alexander... Waited for her...
"Whew sonny, I know you want to get a wives like them, but where did you get them? How did you first met?" His father invited Alexander Wives into the home...
It was a fun dinner that they had... Alexander brother and sister question Alexander wives... But they got something interesting... And his mother is somehow okay with it...
"So this is the Galaxy where the War in heaven never happened?" Dimh-Yriel spoke as she watched on the star filled skies of mars.
"Yes, that much I could explain to you. Farseer Caerys is here as well or another version of her."
"I remember the time when you were just a Guardsmen..." Dimh-Yriel watched to the place where the eye of Terror should have been...
"And I remember you were a cheeky one to return my handkerchief." Alexander smiled, making her smile a bit...
"We both had our differences in the battlefield..."
"Here we are, together to witness a galaxy that is free from chaos... Free from the horrors..."
"And I never thought I become the priestess of Isha."
"Well, it suit you just well." Alexander held her hand... It made her smiled a bit brighter.
They both spent a bit of stargazing until her companions have escorted her to their craftwold they have made here...
Now then.
"Theseus get the rewards please..."
[Computing rewards....]

(A/n): hello I noticed it is around 2.8k words here..
We are returning to pre Warhammer chapters.
But next chapter is like a filler chapter of the rewards that is given as I do not have time today.
Hard to calculate rewards when he done so much... Originally I used to asked my old channels to get what rewards that I should give him. And what perks. Now it would take a day for me to think bout....
