Arpatia, come join me, I just brewed a fresh pot of Recaf... and ehrm... don't reach your hand out to it... it's verminous... don't want to get your murdering hand filthy afterall... best to let it just perish, just close the sewer lid with your boot... should muffle the noise.
The lord general added pouring out some recaf into cups
" This is one of my favorite blends, Catachan Courage, quite the potent concoction, the natives of Catachan are praised for this ingenuity, occasionally a slain catachan devil sow will yield their nascent young in the egg sacs nestled within the gonads, now after the first moult the creature's venom will melt flesh off bone... often through armor but in this sub-juvenile formative stage, a sort of essence may be harvested from the larval forms within the bright orange gonadal egg-sacs, it is also lethal in larger doses, however when appropriately prepared and mixed into Recaf it awakens the senses and imparts a lovely spiced aroma, on account of the nourishing egg-sac fluid, which I am told is a delicacy in Catachan and is quite saccharine. The recaf yielded is exceptionally rich especially when paired with beans reared in Catachans environ, harvest which is itself a precarious tradition... You really do learn to appreciate a beverage more if several people have died in the process of its requisition. "
The general issued an audible slurp from the cup of steaming recaf.
Exquisite. Well worth not sleeping for the next three days.

She sat there smelling the various smells of the Recaf as she patiently waited on him.
Her thoughts went to the drink as she took in everything he said. "It was well worth it with this Recaf. It's aroma is divine. And I do thank you for offering it to me. It definitely raise my spirits to the highest of heights and help with battle. To pray to the Emperor is my true calling," she made notion as she saluted to him while she sat there as she looked at the cup. To think that it came from something that could easily kill her if she didn't kill it first. With her divine smite, it would have issues taking her down, though.
She issued a similar slurp after she picked up the cup and took a small sip from it as she enjoyed the taste of the Recaf. It was a privilege to her to be sitting by Aleksandr again.
"Indeed this concoction is exquisite and divine. And staying up for three days? I am prepared for training within that time period...This will be a wonderful experience, Lord General Aleksandr or rather if you like, Brother Aleksandr. Whichever you prefer, Sir."
Lord General is fine Arpatia, how goes your tenure with the adepta sororitas? Their battle doctrine is certainly more fervent, though who doesnt enjoy a good barbecue... yes... this is the light variant, the warriors of catachan use the real thing as a combat stim, awakens the senses so to speak.. the excess acuity helps in a deadly jungle but not so much in a tabernaculum.
He paused, enjoying his coffee beside Arpatia, she had been a good soldier and he had spoken well of her, including a letter of recommendation, though no doubt she had to endure far harsher training.
Your comrades from Balion left you something
It was a signed photograph of the five of them outside the Chimera.
Royhaven is now a lieutenant and the others commended your bravery in the pacification of the balion outskirts, doubtless knowledge of small artillery benefits you to this day.

"Yes, Sir. I will keep that noted. And the Adepta Sororitas? I am very fond of fighting next to my Sisters, Lord General Aleksandr. Good barbeque? Heh, what a grand joke. Really? I still feel it surging through me. But you are right. This isn't a jungle. Where I go, I won't require that potent version of the concoction."
Being beside him gave her pride like it did when she was his soldier so many moons ago. To think it felt so long ago that she had to go through vigorous training to get where she is now. More so than the other guardsmen and women of the Imperium army.
"Really now? Let me see, Lord General Aleksandr."
She took it and looked at it closely as she took another drink of the Recaf. She smiled at him for once again as she looked at the signed photograph. It did bring back a lot of memories of her with her comrades beside her and their Chimera.
"That old goat? Ha! He finally became a lieutenant? Let him know I congratulate him on getting that far. And tell them thank you. It was a privilege to fight alongside them in warfare. The Balion outskirts back then was difficult. And indeed," she said as she picked up her heavy bolster to show that she was no longer using a lighter artillery. "Though I still have the plasma pistol for up close fights just in case if I need it. And surely I will need it for that. For the Emperor and Mankind, Lord General!"
She gestured to him with a formal salute.
