By the will of the Omnissiah was issued with Imperial console 02 (ЕЕЕ PC). I love it and I always carry it with me. But while this is not an issue in the winter because of the pockets of my jacket, when the weather became warmer I had to carry it by hand and that was a problem. I did not enjoy it at all. One day while I was performing my duties on the roller knife and was conjuring a system of belts and straps that would allow me to carry it secretly, all of a sudden inspiration hit me like a ton of bricks. Why in Omnissiah’s name would I want to carry it secretly? When I have such a great opportunity to show it to everyone! So...
The Idea
The idea that hit me was rather simple really. It was something I have saw on multiple occasions, a motive that had always fascinated me. Like for example the books in Unseen University Library for example, or some books in the Warcraft universe and quite frequently in my favorite Warhammer 40.000 universe.
You’re caching on aren’t you? I decided to create a book with which to carry the laptop. Of course that couldn’t be a real book, but I sure would try as hard as I can to make look like one while it hangs by a chain on my waist
But how exactly should it be looking? From what I’ve said so far it should be a dead giveaway but still hear me out. Although I like the Discworld the books from the Unseen University Library have chains for a different purpose, not to be carried around for sure. The Warcraft variations offer a lustrous alternative, but for a Warhammer 40.000 fan that’s not enough. So as a believer in the Cult Mechanicus doctrine I decided to keep it as close as possible to Adeptus Mechanicus canon, while at the same time I would try to indulge my weakness towards the Iron Hands chapter and get what I can from them.
