if given the choice, an Ordo Xenos-sanctioned Penal Dalek Killer will pick T’ros Taros as their target planet, because it means they can run for the nearest T’au assault force trying to retake it from the Death Unreasoning and maybe, just maybe, not get killed

naturally, Taros isn’t one the Ordo Xenos lets you pick (officially)

#death unreasoning is the literal translation of the t'au word for dalek #though often it gets translated as 'barbarian'#ms. thalia kirst did in fact get to pick t'ros. but that's because inquisitor nicomedes thought she deserved a fair fight.#warhammer 40000 #doctor who #whohammer #dalek imperium #tau #t'au #tau empire #t'au empire #the fall of t'ros to the imperial daleks was like. the big thing that kicked off the 'dalek imperium' era narratively #gotta do a writeup of it at some point #just a basic timeline maybe #it was about a decade before the 'present day' for my stuff #by 'fair fight' in the earlier tag i mean fair to the enemy #i mean a teenage girl meltabombs a hall of justice and then somehow takes out a terrifying number of sororitas #you see why they sentenced her to DK duty but you also see why ol' reinhart thought 'hey maybe save some for the other DKs'#she did NOT save some for the other DKs.#that's how she got recruited by the half-dead bastards
