By the divine authority vested in the bearer of this warrant, granted by the divine majesty of the God-Emperor of Mankind, we hereby proclaim the issuance of a Warrant of Trade for and on behalf of the Imperium of Man.

To Alexander LaRoche, scion of House LaRoche, be it known that the God-Emperor, in His infinite wisdom, entrusts you with the sacred duty and privilege of commanding a Rogue Trader vessel within the vast expanse of the Imperium's domains. You are granted the power to explore the uncharted regions of the galaxy, to negotiate and establish pacts with xenos races, and to exploit the resources of the unknown worlds for the greater glory of the Imperium.

This Warrant of Trade grants you the authority to enforce the Emperor's will, to wage war in His name, and to trade with the benighted worlds beyond the Astronomican's light. You are entrusted with the sacred duty of bringing lost worlds into compliance and securing valuable resources to fuel the Imperium's eternal war against the forces of chaos.

May the God-Emperor's light guide your vessel through the treacherous void, and may your actions bring honor and prosperity to the Imperium. Any deviation from the righteous path shall be met with severe consequences, for the Emperor's wrath knows no bounds.

In the Emperor's name, let the Warrant of Trade be upheld.

"There was a palace built on top of the world. It was not so much as palace and more like a magnificent golden crown that straddled the highest mountains on that planet. A stunning and awe inspiring symbol and unequivocal proof that He had achieved the impossible. He had united the warring tribes, creeds and factions of that planet after centuries of warfare. He had brought peace to his species. He had raised his species from the abyss. And He placed them at their rightful place above all else in the universe."
