Both children graduated the Schola and became Imperial Commissars. Despite being posted to different regiments, they kept in touch and regularly reunited over the course of their careers. To Gaunt, Blenner offered a sense of permanency and a link to the past he felt was lacking in his military life, what with personnel changes and constant movement. Blenner spent over a decade attached to the Greygorian Third, a rather sedentary and low-risk position that resulted in him becoming somewhat weak and complacent in his role as a discipline officer. Despite these faults, and his continued predilection for the telling of tall tales, Gaunt still considered him a friend.{{Fn|1b}}
The two met up for the first time in several years upon the world of [[Pyrites]], not that long after Gaunt was made commander of the [[Tanith 1st]].{{Fn|1b}} Blenner's insistence on staying with his old friend and livening him up a bit resulted in his presence during an secret intelligence hand off between an agent of [[Navy Intelligence]] and Gaunt, as well as the subsequent attempt to gain the intelligence and murder those involved by a mysterious group of unbadged [[stormtroopers]].{{Fn|1b}}{{Fn|1c}}{{Fn|1d}} In fact, Blenner saved Gaunt's life during this attack, surprising and slaying two of the [[stormtrooper]]s who had Gaunt dead to rights.{{Fn|1d}} Having previously somewhat dismissed his friend as an out-of-shape drunkard, Gaunt was further abashed when Blenner waved away any attempt to explain to him what was going on, simply stating that he trusted Gaunt completely and that they were both loyal servants of the [[Emperor of Mankind|Emperor]]. Gaunt and Blenner reaffirmed the strength of their friendship as a result, with Blenner shortly afterwards being present for an altercation between members of the Tanith 1st First and the [[Jantine Patriciansregiment]] regiment that was feuding with them. Once again, Blenner resolved to turn a blind eye to the illegal goings-on surrounding Ibram Gaunt.{{Fn|1e}}{{Fn|1f}} ==See also==*[[List of Commissars]]
