"What in the Emperors name was that!" One of the Helmsmen exclaimed after the ships were grabbed.
I shifted a bit, "Don't worry too much about that, my immaterium self didn't want to allow them to escape, so they used some anti-warp daemon weapons." Didn't actually know Spires could be used that way.
The Captain spoke, "I see... and you couldn't do that earlier?"
"Not really, figuring out where we are in comparison to the Immaterium is difficult. I have to have the constructs at the right location and locate where I need to pop out of the immaterium." I said, my minds eye watching my other self capture the Covenant forces stranded in the Imperium. The few warp daemons that were lured by the existence of life was very quickly eaten.
"Think of it like artillery fire, you have to have the coordinates first before you can actually fire the canons."
The Captain nodded, understanding blooming. "So in theory you could do that in a battlefield if we gave you the coordinates?"
I nodded my glop. "Yeah, as long as I have the cords it shouldn't be too hard."
He nodded. Smiling, I sensed his emotions a bit, he was daydreaming of unleashing my Spires on heretics.
I sighed, "Well, we may have a problem soon enough."
He focused on me, "What?"
"We aren't going to eradicate the races of this Covenant."
Everyone focused on me. The Captain gripped the side of the table. "What do you mean?"
"Emperors orders, we need to make the races of this Covenant join the Imperium as Client races. It's the current running idea for dealing with alien races. The Emperor is doing something similar to the Tau back in your home universe." I continued, explaining, they relaxed somewhat, then I continued. "According to the Emperors knowledge, while alien races can live with humanity, they can't truly co-exist with humanity. They are to..." I struggled to find the word for it. "Self Centered? They care more about their own race and government than all races in the galaxy. The Imperium is meant to be the guiding light for these xenos. Force them to unite to care about the Imperium more than their own ideas."
The Captain nodded, understanding blossoming. "So we need to make these xenos recognize the Emperors Holy Light!"
"Basically, yes. As for those that refuse? Well, we have the exterminatus for a reason."
I felt someone talk to one of my glops, in the back of the ship. It was the Space Marine liason. "Uncle Glop, I'm surprised the Emperor convinced you of this path."
I shrugged that glop. "The Emperor had a lot of convincing points." Namely how this was the only way to integrate alien races without the Imperium forces going 'EXTERMINATE THE XENO!'.
I switched back to the Glop next to the Captain. "My Immaterium self will send back those who convert to the Emperors light. The rest... well, the Immaterium is a great place for souls, sometimes."
