Morrigan's, albeit poor, attempt to find commonality among his gathered cousins was shattered by Vorticar's mention of Greenskins, prompting Vulker's furious outburst! While the sudden response was surprising, the Salamander was not alone in his sentiments. The White Scar Degei Bajan and Death Guard Madoc Mannaw joined the chorus of disdain for their enemy, the foul xenos. Ever reserved, Morrigan refrained from lending voice to the mob.
While he had no love for xeno, mutant, or heretic, something about the Techmarine gave Morrigan pause. In his life before becoming a Space Marine, before the honorary titles and designated names, he was a but a slave to the Tech-Guilds of Kiavahr. The wealth and power-hungry Guildmasters, who governed the Tech-Guilds, ruled ruthlessly over the oppressed and maltreated slave caste forced to toil in the mines under booted heel. For the briefest faction of a second, the man that once was Edryc caught a glimpse of his past in the raging Techmarine.
