WARNING- This is a Warhammer 40k tale that is Grim Dark and most definitely not safe for work. Do not expect Space Marines to save the day. Do not expect the Emperor's light. Do not expect hope.
Not only do you claim that the light been extinguished but I bet I will even miss the premier as well...
Truly all is lost!😢
@@sadwingsraging3044 no issues, I may have to rethink when I do premieres in the future. Not sure if many can make this one!
@@AVoxintheVoid it's just bad timing on my part. As for the release time with me being an American it would drop at 5PM here which isn't bad but there aren't many 40K fans here in the States relatively speaking.
Got a family dinner to attend so it is time to don the Dreadnought armor.😑
Funnily enough a huge portion of my audience is based in the states. Enjoy the family meal my man!
No god can save you, there never were any, they never were alive. Only you can save yourself. Only death will be your salvation. So make your choice. Hide, weak and cowardly like sheep or fight and struggle, murder and butcher, rip and eat. Because no matter which choice you make we are coming for you. For you all!!!
I genuinely love this. It genuinely highlights how horrific life is in the 40k universe and how not everyone has heroes to appear and save them.
Thankyou so much wanderer. I have a little bit of a dark fascination with unhappy endings.... I hope you enjoy the other two parts!
This has got to be the 40k-est of all 40k story out there. No glory, no epic fight, no last stand. Just ol' grim ,dark, and hopeless far future.
the 40k of alltime
“That’s a Hell of an act,” remarked the talent agent. “So what are you called?”
And the family cried out in gleeful unison: “The Aristocrats!”
Classic godfried
This one does such a good job of portraying Slaneesh worship that I'm honestly thinking GW should let you write Emperor's Children books. Can't wait for the next part!
Cheers David! This kind of story was right up my street. It's only going to get worse from here! 😎
Finally someone writes the visceral brutal nature of chaos without reservation.
[Cries off in the distance] "f**king HERETICsss..."
Few writers truly get Slaanesh the way you do. There’s no empathy or consent or love with She Who Thirsts, just stimuli so overwhelming that they obliterate the ego. An excellent story, and I hope you write many more Chaos tales.
A perfect example of why the Eldar deserve extinction. They "birthed" this particular flavor of Hell into the galaxy. Let their knife eared souls suffer under the tender love of the Dark Prince for the rest of eternity.
Aaaaaand this is why you fight for the Emperor. Look at your options.
I'd rather be used as psychic fuel to sustain The God Emperor than end up in the claws of Slaanesh for them to do god knows what to me with god knows who or what.
100 percent lol
I'd rather live on a Tau world than an Imperial world, and I mean as a human. The best case scenario in the cosmic birth lottery of 40k. Average quality of life is astronomically better.
@@anibalybarrarojas race traitor !!! Lol
@@anibalybarrarojas good luck getting there when you live in a hive city
This story is so grim dark it would make a Black Library author quiver in fear.
Hands down the best warhammer 40k narrator. Stories are insane as well. This series in particular is quintessential grim. Love it.
Voice and presentation aside, this writing is truly work of talent. -- I came back here after listening to the 3rd act to figure out who the writer was and why it was so good, and God damn... It's the Vox himself. -- Real talent, man.
Thankyou so much. This story was a labour of love for me so it's always a huge boost to read comments like these. Thankyou again my friend. Vox
@AVoxintheVoid Nah, thank you, man. - Stay good. 👍🏻👍🏿
This is the eldritch space horror I've been looking for.
Part two on the way my man!
*me prior to listening/watching* "Fuck yeah, Slaanesh!"
*Me ten minutes in and remembering that this is what Chaos is actually like* 😶
Fuck yeah Slaanesh
You encapsulated the whole grim darkness of it all. You just flawlessly described how every random chaos cultist has a unique, individual, and interesting backstory, albeit a terrible horrible one in this case... anybody in the crowd could be this guy...
Many truly horrible 40K things are a case of “wrong place, wrong time.”
This trilogy was and is brilliant! 40K honestly needs more stories about the civilians of the universe and this tale was a great blend of horror, corruption, guilt and loss.
Imagination adds to horror.. this feels like a top notch horror to me. The writer and narrator nailed it. Gruesome and shocking work. 9/10
Thankyou buddy. This is the first story I wrote myself for the channel! I'm glad you feel that way!
It's always content like this that's needed to remind us of all the true horrors of the 40K universe. Excellent work, brother.
Terrifying, i'd rather die being axed by a khornate berserker.
Slaanesh might sound tempting, an escape from the grimdark reality. But this is where the endless pursuit of even further extacy and pleasure leads to eventually.
None of THAT is my idea of pleasure...
Not to start. Theres always a gateway
Yooo she felt so safe I his arms as he caressed her, only for him to bail on her the one time he needed to be there the most. The one time she counted on him the most. This shits wild dude.
Ya hit me super hard first few lines in a weird way die standing you coward
**note to self**
_Never forget to put your glass vial of life-eater virus out of reach_
I keep coming back to this one. It's gotta be some of the best Warhammer horror I've ever heard. You're an incredibly talented writer. 🎉
Thankyou my friend!
"tasteless pink and purple", Slanesh reported SLAIN.
I’ve loved this as it perfectly captures the death of hope in a Grim and very Dark universe. This isn’t for the timid souls that linger on the edges of life. This is for those whose souls have felt the corruption of chaos and have heard the calling of the wicked things in the warp. Wonderfully narrated and keep going! 🏆
Good grief that was horrible. I could feel every gory detail, every pain, every stench in my mind. This was true horror. Lingering terror slowly descending into indescribable madness while encapsulating the indulging, hedonistic nature of Slaanesh.
Amazing job a writing and transmitting the madness. Now if you'll excuse me, I have a lunch that I'm going to take a good look at again inside the porcelain throne.
Thankyou for sticking with it! This series was my baby. Consumed me for a couple of months but I think I exorcised the demons!
@@AVoxintheVoid "but I think I exorcised the demons!"
[The Ordo Malleus became highly suspicious]
You know, this could be a very good survival horror story for a 40k game.
I can imagine it being like outlast
@@AVoxintheVoidOutlast x dead space
WOW this series is amazing it had everything horror blood guts a man desperately trying to survive dealing with the grief and guilt of abandoning his dear wife to the chaos hoards and in the end to find the strength to go out swinging and meet his end and once again truly amazing narration absolutely gripping from beginning to end 😀😀😀😀😀
The wait will be too long, looks like we get a great story for bedtime today.
I hope you enjoy your little night night tale
I've learned by now that I can easily drop a like on your videos before even starting to watch them, because the quality is guaranteed to always be there
I stumbled upon your channel last night after hearing “The watcher in the rain from Wes hammer” My Halloween day and night will be fucking immaculate thanks you to.
Thankyou Josh, we share the same surname so you're most definitely in my good books 😜
Same
Truly incredible. I wish that I could listen to it for the first time again.
And this is the closest we’ll get to Books of Blood era Clive Barker writing for Warhammer…
Oh man that takes me back ❤
I don’t know if I’m leaving these comments or I believe I am but I come back to this trilogy every 3 or so weeks and can’t quite get enough of it, it just so much, each time I forgot a small detail and then I hear it again and it becomes crystal clear, the whole thing has this indescribable feeling and it’s a really driving story it’s perfectly 40k and an outstanding story. I seriously can’t stop seeing the tragic events of Solomon play out over and over in immaculate gory detail.
Phenomenal
Holy hell all I know of the chaos entities are facts about them this brings their meaning and action into frightening realism I can understand on a more emotional level. I now understand the meaning of ruinous powers and chaos. I also understand why people turn to chaos with the imperium being akin to a monster in itself chewing its people up and spitting them out into xeno food, chaos victims, or corpse starch. Or inhuman monsters from purgatory like work
Too grim and too dark to be marketable for games workshop but maaan am I loving this channel!
Sing praise farmer because you have received through mere chance and your own choices something untold mortals have spent their entire lives in pursuit of and failed to even glimpse. The direct attentions of a demon.
Beautiful
@@AVoxintheVoid Thanks! I wonder what his excess was? I believe it is a willingness to do whatever it takes to survive. An excessive desire to continue to exist if you will.
You got it my friend
Better than anything the black library has put out in ages in writing alone. And the presentation was gut turning.
That was a wonderfully woeful tale of pain, spite and delight. A true look at the depths one my sink for survival really well done
It's only going to get worse from here... Thanks for being here buddy 👍
@@AVoxintheVoid the pleasure was all mine thank you for the video
I’m a huge Night Lord fan, and you r the only TH-camr who creates stories and does them justice! A touching back story to a night lord that’s unheard of. Please do more night lord work you shine in this category
Yep, I’ll be listening to this as I sit in office and talk to my coworker who is 30+ years older than me about her children.
Came back to listen to this again. This is how I first found this channel and it is still just spectacular.
Truly appreciate this message my friend. This story arc is one of my own. My twisted baby if you will 🙂
This is insanely good and properly grim. I love these small stories told from the view of regular people suffering the hellish existence of the 40K universe. Great job.
I bet you were nervous when you hit the submit button. Replace that nervousness with pride, you did good, real good.
Amazing work! I usually listen to stuff on YT as I go to bed and fall asleep whilst doing so but this audioplay transported me into a different realm. The frame of mind that you're able to put the listener in is something else. First video of yours that I listened to was "Abomination" which set the standard quite high so I'm glad to hear (pun intended) that your older work is of high quality as well. 10/10 gonna listen to something a bit more relaxing now to catch some z's thanks very much.
Thankyou so much for the kind words jami. I would say abomination and all the gods are dead are some of the most proud moments on the channel. Glad you enjoyed them as much as I did recording. 🤘
The descriptive storytelling transported me into the dark morbid grotesque depths of the lair of slaneesh. True chaos.
This is grim dark AF. Wonderfully made. If this is you own work I salute you. Hope this rises to the top of the algorithms. Great to paint toys to.
Yeah this is my baby! Thankyou very much boss
No cool marines, no stylish villians, just the horrific reality that is the followers of the ruinous powers.
Truly horrifying is the slow, reluctant, decent into darkness only to avoid a quick physical death in the light.
Grim Dark is what brought me to Warhammer, and as long as it continues to be documented and recounted, I am here for it.
Best 40K VO on YT by a country mile.
You're too kind my friend 🤘
@@AVoxintheVoid No. Thank you. Keep doing what you do. This is top notch. You along with others have helped me traverse the 40k world. Needless to say yours stands out the most owing to the VO and the music. Well done. I hope this meets you well.
I know little about Warhammer, but am an ardent cinephile and especially adore body horror and all the exquisite darkness that springs from it. You are extremely talented, both in your vocal talents and your writing. This reminds me a bit of Clive Barker, and your vocal intonations are reminiscent of Doug Bradley in Hellraiser (this is a sincere compliment). You've earned a new subscriber and an eager listener.
This is stellar! Congrats for daring to put out your first own story, you knocked it out of the park! This is the best depiction of Slaneesh I ever read, fantastic job!
You don't understand how much messages like these mean to me. It was an absolute labour of love to write this trilogy and I'm really happy that others can enjoy my writing
You guys (and gals) truly deliver on the Grimdark. Bravo!
Thankyou so much! Your support on a few of the videos has been noticed and very much appreciated! Vox
That one injured and heavily mutated traitor guardsmen behaved almost comically in a way with how he was disappointed that the guy didn’t slit his wrists. You perfectly captured the Grimdark. I’ve been writing a Multicrossover Warhammer fanfiction that mostly revolves around Warhammer Fantasy so there is some hope but plenty of dark moments and a bit of crude humor.
Look forward to reading it soon Samuel, make sure you link me when it's done!
I wrote the character as an homage to the hills have eyes. A mix of stupidity and pure horror 😎
@@AVoxintheVoid I've done a few chapters already. But fair warning while there are dark moments there are also moments of calm in-between. Also, there are moments where it changes perspectives which has confused some readers.
@@AVoxintheVoid Yeah, Warhammer also has silly moments as well so it perfectly captures the tone of the setting.
@@AVoxintheVoid Would it be okay if I send a link despite the fact, I still haven't finished the story? Because I've already finished quite a few chapters. But I'm not certain if my tone of writing is suitable for this channel
I don't want to be captured by the night lords under the influence of slaanesh, this is terrifying.
Grimdark at its darkest! Great writing and great narration! Keep up the good work.
Thankyou Toni! Glad you enjoyed my work!
From a heart filled story of an ogren to a truly beautiful nightmare …. A story is just a story .. it’s the story teller that makes it a masterpiece… start to finish I was transfixed on this stories unfolding horrors. What a treat again
Ty for your continued giving of such treats, I’m am without question hooked and can’t wait for more.
Thankyou sir. I'm glad I have supporters like yourself on the channel.
Wait…… you wrote this story ?
@@MrDrDeaGood I did indeed 🙂
You and Bladermort have a very outstanding dare I say masterful use of the inflections and changes in your voice when describing depravity
I feel as if you're a old man recounting the horror and terror
You witnessed I feel.as if I can picture you clutching a rag dishelved and emaciated
While you tell my guardsman unit what was done to you and your friend and family
Talking in third person to preserve your sanity
Powerful story telling Thank you
What an incredible message to read. Thankyou so much!
I'm New to your channel and stories but these are incredible, really makes the mind visualise and feel each scene, "abomination" on particular gripped me. Amazing Work.
Perhaps your best one yet! Background score and sound effects created an amazing ambience. Bravo Vox 👏
That means a lot as this is the first one I've personally written for the channel. Can't wait to get stuck into part two!
I’m new to 40k all together, like really new. So glad I found this channel. Keep up the fantastic work.
Then you're up for a hell of a ride. Enjoy the dark.
Binging everything you've done since I've seen one video and you and Baldermort are masters of the Grim Dark narrative art form doesn't even feel like hours while I get lost in your tales sir good show
It's Inspired to make my own Homebrew Chaos Chapter - a mash up of Barker's Cenobites and Slannesh Disciples - The Progeny of Pain. They fuel themselves with the suffering of all sentient species. Their " armour" made from the constantly mewling forms of various intergalactic newborns, spawned into a pitiless universe without consent. Humans of course being the hot favourite. They return to their God to be torn asunder and harvested before being agonisingly rebirthed to repeat their cycle.
That's amazing!!! You and me are on the same page when it comes to chaos corruption!!
You can rub a little Lovecraft funk in it. Go the way of Old Shubby. Maybe call the harvest/rebirther The Ecidna. A grotesque disembodied purplish hued psychotropic perptually pulsing, convulsing womb-vula like entity which twitches spazmodically in the Orgasmic throes of Transcendental Torture it's screams stifled due to lack of Orficial Outlet and reverberated backwards into an echo of endless Ecstacy. It is one of many of Slannesh's Harlots of Scarlet Suffering. An order of various hyper- hermorphidical herseys. The Progeny of Pain Serve as one of Slanessh's violent violations of virtues. And The God gets vicarious vibrations from their many Ravages Upon Reality.
Oh, that is inspired. The Prince of Pleasure surely approves.
This makes me glad the Astartes exist, for they, I feel will be the only ones able to stomach and do something against horrors that simply refuse to let you die until they're satisfied
Or will become the mightiest champions of chaos and spread it even more.
people underestimate the guard imo
@@isaiahd5396 No one underestimates the guard more than the Commissars
@@TAttila84 Just to get deleted if a Black Templar sees a vision and comes after them like a fiend seeking missile known as the Emperor's Champion to whack'em with that championship belt that Sigismund refuses to let go of, even in death
Cadian Guardsman literally train for this. Mere mortal humans.
Geese dude this is dark. I think you have really captured the personal horror and tragedy that being confronted with Warhammer's Chaos, would bring. You have my admiration sir. Well done and I can't wait for part two, which I'm going to listen to, right now. :) Thanks for your efforts, it is appreciated.
Hey! Thankyou for checking out my short story. I hope you enjoy the subsequent two parts. They are close to my heart as it is one of the only stories on the channel written by myself. I get a huge boost to read comments like these so thankyou again 🙏
@@AVoxintheVoid I did indeed check out the other two parts and they were awesome. I really liked that subjective nature of the ending. What our protanonist seeing his wife or was it a delusion of "She who thursts"? We don't know but you nailed it. Well done. I can't wait to check out more of your work. Thanks for your time and energy. Peace.
This certainly put the "dark" in Grimdark. Excellent use of description; you managed to convey the depravity without going overboard and leaving nothing to the imagination. I think Fulgrim and Lucius would be amused.
Means a lot coming from you Chester. Thanks buddy
Daemonculaba levels of grimdark present in this tale Vox. Cannot wait to see how this pitiable wretch's story will unfold in Act 2.
Congrats on popping your author cherry!
The cultists remind me so much of the crossed. If you don't know already just look up crossed comics
Definitely good for inspiration for this kind of storytelling. But, he warned.
Oh they definitely were an inspiration
@@AVoxintheVoid the shared imagery of the series combined with your storytelling ability is truly a waking nightmare in the best way.
I'm hoping for more content inside the ranks of chaos cults and similar stories! 🏺
I read that. You do have a point. Garth Ennis man.
Alan Moore did a few Crossed issues.
This 3 part series was utterly amazing. Dan Abnett levels of writing here, and the narration was peerless. I was listening to all of these while on a long car ride and I was utterly engrossed.
I hated Solomon at first, then I finally began to empathize with him. This is one of those works I know I'll think back on from time to time.
This is an incredible message to read. This was a passion project for me and it's always fantastic to hear others enjoy my madness!
That's funny, I was the exact opposite.
@@Va11idus in what way?
@@AVoxintheVoid the longer he lived the more I found his continued, hollow existence to be an insult to the memory of those who sacrifice themselves to save others. I found him to be revoltingly ignoble, and every breath he drew further solidified that truth to me. In fairness, I did post this before I realized the other acts were going to follow the same character. Perhaps he will redeem himself.
@@Va11idus yeah check it out 😎 great takes though!
this is perhaps the best WH4K fiction series on youtube. really a different level.
This is a true compliment. Thankyou sir
Bravo my friend!! Loved every second of it!! You are a superb writer and voice actor!!! Keep it up!!!
Just discovered this channel and I'm amazed by the quality of everything; perfectly fitting atmospheric ambient, great voice and pretty much flawless delivery the entire way through and the stories themselves are just up my alley as a horror/sci-fi fan.
Truly appreciate your words of support! Glad to have you here!
Yes!!!!! This is so Grim Dark!!! Love this.
Indeed.
Have you written anything before? Because you did a great job with this story. Can definitely feel the grimdark influence and how you really doubled down on it, but wasn't overdone at all. You did a great job describing everything as well, especially the vision the poor farmer had. Just screamed Slaanesh. I look forward to listening to part 2!
I've written bits and bobs for my own enjoyment but never put it out into the world like this. I hope you enjoy the second part! Looking forward to reading what you thought of it!
Just discovered your channel today and been playing through the list. This one was genuinely horrifying, and it's the first time an audiobook has had me on the edge of my seat. Brilliantly done.
Thankyou so much! Glad you enjoyed it my friend.
Loving your content. It has that pure Cosmic Dread. Your channel's Handle is also some great branding. Keep on Keeping on.
Perfectly got the essence of Slaneesh, and the cruelty of the imperial regime too.
That gives me a huge boost. Thanks my friend 👍
@@AVoxintheVoid And I thank you for the amazing content you always deliver, hope the channel will grow in popularity, this is the quality 40k fans need and needs to know about.
Excellent work. It's insane how they would leave such a place this defenseless.... and how a crisis changes people so much. On to act 2. 😊
It’s a village on an agriworld, while the residents definetely deserved a better defense from our point of view, from the uncaring administratums perspective there’s much more “useful” places to place guard regiments. I also assume the attack was unexpected.
Holy crap this actually gives me anxiety 10/10
My work here...is done
@@AVoxintheVoid i hope not! i want more horror MORE HERESY
@@antonyhart6757 have you listened to the next two parts?
@@AVoxintheVoid I have now. Did you write this?? Im in love. The atmoshpere of the whole thing is fantastic.
@@antonyhart6757 I did indeed my friend. I wrote this series and the skull takers narration 🙂
Grimdark indeed.
This is why we purge heretics.
GW would never write this well or this accurate. Great work!
Incredible first tale. I would dare say better that some of others written by long term writers. I would like to hear more of this type of work. Keep it up.
Really appreciate that George. I'll keep the story going for sure
Wow what a story hope we'll get part two soon
Hopefully not too long to wait, gonna start finalising the story over the next week 👍
This is amazing! This is exactly how I view my chaos army.. this very weird version of hell on "earth". Love it!
I keep rewatching this... It's enthralling
I'm glad you like it brother! I'm very proud of how it came out and even more proud when I hear about people enjoying my writing 🤘
I'm on like new game plus six on this.
I just finished listening to all three acts of this. Wow! I feel like I had just partaken in the audio equivalent of Hieronymus Bosch's "The Garden of Earthly Delights"! I was never really interested in Slaanesh throughout the years, but after this, I have a bit of reading to do!
Many thanks! Just to let you know that I'm not sure many official GW tales of slaanesh go as 'hard' as me 😜🤘
We need more more descriptions of chaos like this.
Brother Vox you've outdone yourself once again. Truly gripping work. Hair curling at moments. Thank you for these great works! Emperor bless you with peace and prosperity.
Thankyou sir. I'm glad you enjoyed it! I was extremely nervous about this one as it was my first personally written piece I've ever narrated. I'm so happy how it's been received and truly have the bug now!
Jesus, it’s been 10 seconds and I’m already uncomfortable. Well done
Never heard you before this.
Blown away, looking forward to more, dark like this or dark in the normal 40k with marines.
With amazing with the tone and ambiance of sounds.
You made me visualize a story better than anyone else ever has! 👍 Damn good
Cheers Christopher! I've tried to specialise in the darker side of 40k and glad people like yourself enjoy what I do. Hope you stick around!
Just a regular Monday in 40k.
Man, that was incredible! Well played! I'm getting ready to do the same thing.
😊😊
Jeez, your narration really elevated this already amazing story to incredible heights. Great work!
Thankyou! This is one of the only stories I've personally written for the channel, I'm sure the passion came through 😜
@@AVoxintheVoid That's some great writing man. You really know how to paint a scene.
Who wrote this, yourself Vox in the Void? It’s brilliant, the truest thing I’ve read/listened to o my minds eye of the grim dark 40k horror
Hi Ben. Yes I wrote this tale myself. I am glad my writing had this effect sir!
@@AVoxintheVoid fantastic job mate! Poor wretched solomon! Just realised there is more than just this one video. 🤘
Hope you enjoy the rest!
In the grim dark stories of A Vox in the Void, there is only NSFW epicness...
Haha! I try my best 😉
Sick narration, man! This story exemplifies your work and I’m so glad I get to be here to watch you blow up on TH-cam. Keep the awesome content coming!
Cheers JB. I'm glad to have such an amazing community such as yourself.
I raise my cup to this beaty. In anticipation.
I'll be at work when this premiers, but I'm so glad that you've gone and written something yourself. It never really occurred to me that we might get fiction from you one day. Looking forward to listening later tonight. Hope the premier goes well 👍
Thanks my friend. It was a great experience to flex my writing 'skills'. This is a pure horror piece so I'm sure it won't be everyone's jam but I like my Warhammer as Grim Dark as possible. Take care!
I did not expect hope, I was not disappointed. Disgusted, yes, disappointed, no.
This was well worth the wait!!! Your skills and talents have improved so much; thank you for everything you do for us and Warhammer!
My pleasure Johnny! I'm totally stoked that you enjoyed the tale and for the compliments! 🤘
