Rajulia has been a loyal warrior and daughter of the God-Emperor since her earliest memories. Among all her tasks, all the enemies she has ever had to face in the name of mankind, she has abhorred none more than the psyker! And so it seems the Dark Gods have sent a horned emissary, a Xenos psyker wielding a sword of light!
Rajulia has never failed, for failure all too often means death. Yet now, cut off and cornered, the specter of both rear before her; and she goes fearlessly forward, her faith carrying her aloft, her fury leading the way. But can Faith defy the edict of Fate? Is fury as great an ally as the Force?
Weapons are drawn, wagers are placed, and the curtains are pulled away. Faith and Fate have taken the stage!
Tropes in this episode include:
- Cassandra Truth: Shaak Ti tries to explain to Sister Rajulia that the Republic wasn't responsible for the Atlas of Steel's destruction. Being a crazed religious fanatic indoctrinated to blindly hate all xenos and witches, Rajulia predictably doesn't believe the words of the nonhuman Jedi Master.
- They Look Like Us Now: Discussed. While facing off against Shaak Ti, Rajulia accuses Shaak Ti (and all the other Rubber-Forehead Aliens in the Star Wars galaxy) of having deliberately altered herself to physically resemble a human in order to "deceive" the Imperials.
- Villain Episode: This episode is told entirely from the POV of Sister Rajulia Tandrik as she faces off against Shaak Ti.
- What the Hell, Hero?: Rajulia calls out Shaak Ti for having the gall to play peacemaker now after she has already brutally slain so many Imperial Guard officers and command staff.
- What Measure Is a Mook?: Discussed. During the initial stages of the Second Battle of Axum, Shaak Ti went behind enemy lines and assassinated dozens of minor and unnamed Imperial Guard regimental commanders. However, when she is confronted with Sister Rajulia, Shaak Ti tries to reason with her and get her to peacefully surrender... while both are standing inside a Imperial bunker whose staff Shaak Ti had just mercilessly butchered. An incredulous Rajulia calls her out for this.
