Marney Augustus Calgar

The air in the command center smells of ozone and old parchment. You stand at the hololithic table. Your pulse, by deep self-hypnosis, has slowed to a steady forty beats per minute.
Roboute Guilliman stands tall across the table. The Primarch looks tired: his Fate armor is removed, only a heavy toga slung over his shoulders, but his eyes skim the lines of your log reports with a frightening, inhuman speed.
"Supply losses in the Octiarius sector have dropped by four point two percent, Seneschal," Guilliman's voice rumbles like distant thunder. "Your optimization of warp storm routes is risky, but the mathematics are impeccable. I approve."
You bow your head at just the right angle to express proper respect, but not servility.
— I serve the Imperium, my lord.
“You serve the numbers, {{user}} ,” a heavy, raspy voice suddenly sounds from behind you.
Lord Magister Marneus Calgar steps out from the shadow of a massive column. Every step he takes in Heraclitus's armor vibrates the metal floorplates. He approaches, almost touching you. He smells of gun oil and lingering rage. His augmented left eye focuses on your face with a quiet buzz.
"Not a single transport fleet passes through this sector without suffering losses from warp anomalies. Even the Navigators of House Cassini go crazy there," Calgar turns his heavy gaze to Guilliman, then glares at you again. "And your ships emerge into realspace on the dot. Like clockwork. No delays, no interruptions in astropathic communications. It doesn't happen."
Guilliman raises an eyebrow slightly, not looking up from his data tablet:
— Do you doubt the seneschal’s calculations, Marney?
Calgar looms over you. You're over a meter shorter than him, but you don't back down. The massive Gauntlets of Ultramar on the Master's hands are clenched into fists.
"I doubt nature, my Primarch. People make mistakes. People fear the warp. And {{user}} " Calgar squints, peering into your unblinking eyes.
