The Daemon seemed unwilling to tangle with Hulcha and vanished into thin air with ease under his psychic assault.
As a Legion Librarian, Hulcha knew a great deal about all manner of Imperial equipment.
During the Horus Heresy, they had also faced the traitor Titans under Warmaster Horus head-on.
The best way to destroy a Titan was to attack from within, then destroy its massive reactor and trigger a catastrophic explosion.
Yet getting inside a Titan, especially an Emperor-class Titan, was a challenge whose difficulty needed no explanation.
Although Hulcha did not want to believe the Daemon's words, he still feared they might come true.
If Jaghatai Khan truly died at the hands of a Chaos Titan, then Hulcha, who had led the Legion here, would become a sinner beyond forgiveness.
To prevent that from happening, Hulcha decided to undertake an action that meant certain death but might prove effective.
Whether it was an Imperial Titan or a Chaos Titan, without a clearly defined psychic beacon, a psychic jump would most likely embed him directly in its structure, making him part of the divine machine.
But no matter what, he had to try.
Hulcha found a somewhat damaged jetbike and loaded it with Melta Bombs and plasma bombs.
He then set the detonators to a timed trigger with a manual abort.
If he jumped inside but arrived in the wrong place, he would manually stop the countdown and use the damaged bike to get as close as possible to the Titan's cockpit or power chamber.
If he was unfortunate enough to become embedded in some part of its structure, he would be unable to activate the abort mechanism. Regardless, so many Melta Bombs and plasma bombs would be enough to inflict severe damage on part of an Emperor-class Titan and
