Continuation of adventures. Jaune got his own astartes's legion, and found his brother. New faces will show, and the primarchs of the second, and eleventh legion will embrace their fate.
Jaune and Cardin received the information about strike team's success in fighting against unknown grimm. But this fight made a questions, very important questions. Jaune explained the situation to Mournival. Jaune thinks, that appearing of that grimm was not accidental. He and his legion stormed Atlas and made a name for themselves, then, a large and very dangerous grimm appeared. Grimm are not a common beasts, something or someone summoning them. Huge grimm appeared to test their strength, so Jaune ordered his legion to start equipping heave weapons.
Jaune was in his chambers, dressed in yellow robe with his legion's insignia on his back. He was thinking about himself, about his legion, about his brothers, father and former friends and family. He knows, that he just disappeared from his family's life, like he wasn't even there. He knew, that Ozpin told them about his achievements, and they probably crying from grief...or from pride. His thoughts was interrupted by the opening portal in the middle of his chambers. He saw unfamiliar figure, falling from the portal on his back. The figure was covered in red coloured power armor, with eye insignia on the pauldrons.

Jaune noticed, that the stranger is a psyker. However, he ordered his sons to extract this psyker to a prison for questioning. He knew about this sumbol on the stranger's pauldrons...thousand sons, sons of Magnus. Jaune will have a little talk with his brother, when he come around, the stranger looks important.
*With Cardin*
He was standing before the imprisoned autarch in the ce in his robe, to look less intimidating. The eldar was sitting on the comfy bed, eating a finest meal, which legion can afford.
"Open the doors!"
He ordered. Doors to the cell opened, and he stepped inside, closing the doors behind him. Autarch was confused and slightly shocked. What is he doing ? She wandered. Cardin asked:
"Can I sit ?"
Autarch looked at him, wandering what did he meant and suddenly understand. He asks for a permission to sit on her bed. She nodded while continuing eating the food. Cardin sat beside her and started speaking:
"How is your cell ? You know, we can upgrade it with all sorts of means, if you would like"
Autarch gulped the food and said:
"It's... Oddly comfortable. The cell is clean, the bed is comfy, I have a table and the toilet is in other room. It's like I being imprisoned not by a mon'kaighs, but a tau maybe... Tell me, why are you doing this ? The marines were nice enough to not insult me in any kind of ways, you didn't execute me, you didn't forced me to tell you an important information. Why ?"
Cardin thought for a moment, before replying:
"Did you know, that the Emperor of mankind didn't wanted to destroy all races in the galaxy that isn't human ? He never wanted it to be like that, if some xeno race wants to coexist with us in peace - we will welcome them with open hands. However, that didn't go very well. Orks wanted to fight and nothing more, Tau wanted everyone to work for them, necrons wants to exterminate all leaving in the galaxy, and you...you see us as the monkeys, a primitives that uses sticks to get their launch out of the bee's nest. You know about Horus heresy, aren't you ? Well, the Emperor was deathly hurt in the end. Our glorious Imperium turned from the nation of progress and hope, to the nation of downfall and hate. My brother - Jaune Arc, who is born on this planet met a fragment of Emperor's mind and psyche, and learnt the truth about himself, the Imperium and all Terra's origin. Everything that Emperor knows - knows Jaune, and everything Jaune knows - I know."
Autarch was shocked by a sudden revelations. She never tried to understand humans, and that was a great mistake of entire eldar kind, after Slaanesh of course. When she was around other humans, she feel hate and anger, radiating from them, like a burning star. But when she met the Lightbringers...she felt peace, happiness, hope and determination.
"My name is Cardin Winchester, a primarch of the eleventh legion. I am, with my brother Jaune Arc, a primarch of the second legion, are currently planning to destroy an abominations of dark, called grimm. We, and our brothers back on Terra wants to change the Imperium, free it from corruption. Me, Jaune, Jaghatai, Corvus, Magnus, Leman, Vulkan and Dorn is determined to do so."
Autarch looked at him for a moment, before smiling and saying:
"My name is Gri'tea the blooming, an autarch of the craft-world Ulthwe, and I shall aid you and your brothers in this task. I will not fight for my craft-world, but for my kind, and for a peaceful coexistence of our species. And I look forward to meet your father and your family as the ambassador of my kind."
She extended her hand. Carding smiled and shakes her hand as the start of restoring the eldar kind, and the restoration of Imperium's greatness. She will leave hers cell and roam around the Solis to understand how the space marines actually work. But as more she meets Cardin...she feel more strange feelings.
