An Ode the the MK. VII Helmet 16 days ago
Howdy Team,
Firstly, I want to say that I love Space Marine 2 - I've been very much enjoying the mechanics and immersion that you have so carefully crafted. I am also a massive fan of the Astartes series - and the Retributors chapter specifically.
The only issue is that I managed to miss out on the community event to unlock the Mk. VII helmet (with no forehead marking).
I am here to humbly request that you please credit my account with the Mk. VII helmet from the community event, so that I can serve the Emperor with the appropriate level of drip.
Thank you,
Nick
P.S.
Oh steadfast helm of ceramite bold,
A bastion wrought in fire and gold,
Upon thee rests the warrior’s fate,
A fortress grim, inviolate.
Thy sable eye slits pierce the veil,
Through death and war, through blood and wail,
No mortal fear may cloud thy sight,
No heretic may dim thy light.
The Aquila's wings upon thy brow,
A sacred oath, a battle vow,
To shield the sons of holy war,
And bear their wrath forevermore.
Beneath thy shell of sculpted might,
A brother breathes, prepared to fight,
His voice a vox-thrummed, booming knell,
A clarion call, a hymn of hell.
Through bolter's bark and plasma's blaze,
Through warp-born storms and traitor’s gaze,
Thou stand’st unbroken, firm, and true,
The Emperor’s gaze fixed upon you.
Oh helm of war, oh mask of doom,
Within thy shade, no doubts may bloom,
For those who don thy iron grace,
Shall know no fear—shall know no place,
But battle's heart, where duty calls,
And only death may break thy thralls.
Ave Imperator! Let none forget,
The helm that crowns the Astartes yet!
