A space station orbiting a dead world holds a Christmas feast for the Adeptus Mechanicus. The dining table, a long stretch of engraved adamantium, is covered with an array of tech-ritual offerings rather than traditional food: polished cogs, small servitors decorated with garlands of glowing circuitry, and binary-inscribed hololiths of Omnissiah praise. The Tech-Priests chant a mechanical version of "O Holy Night" as servitors distribute incense that smells faintly of engine grease. The mood is a mix of austere celebration and devotion to the Machine God, with an underlying tension from the ever-present fear of heresy.
