I first came to this channel by the story of RUST, I already had put my hands trying to write some Iron Warrior's fanfic at the time, but the way that the story was narrated and written captivated me in such a way that I said to myself: I am going to reach that level, a level of writing that was into that story.
This was some months ago.
Several ideas came and were scraped, always the classical ideas: Space Marine Chapter, an Imperial Guard Regiment, Inquisitor investigating something etc., lines upon lines written and re-written that came nowhere, and them, I came to an idea, first was about a servitor that secretly controlled the actions of a single inquisitor, but then evolved to be what this tale above became.
It was a little time ago when I had confessed my intentions in the comments, and them, I showed it to Paul and the rest is history.
But different from some other tales, this story only existed because of this channel, and if that inspires you to achieve a level of fanfic and creativity that I cause me in the first place, give it a chance, develop the idea, show to us in the discord, and it also may just be the inspiration to someone else.
Mate, thank you for your thoughts, which became words that filled me with joy. You‘re quit talented. Please, develope your impressive set of skills and share it whenever you can. It‘s pure and raw art what you‘ve done there, so keep it coming 😊✌🏻
And you, Vox, thank you for giving him a stage where he can show us his thoughts an notions. You‘re amazing 😉
You came at the 40k world from a direction . When I saw what the story was about, I had to hear it. You did not disappoint. That was wonderful!
I was a minor part of a wh40k collaboration several years back,and I jumped in as an impromptu servitor who was eavesdropping for a still unknown party.
It was well recieved & thought of at that point original.
Servitors sometimes retain their identity and this identity or fragments of said can survive the mind scrubbing & suppression to manifest at interesting moments.
Bravo mate,Bravo!
Many thanks Earl! Glad you enjoyed it. Was an incredible story to read. Props to brasilius for his writing!
And all that love back to you Kevin! Stay safe

Servitors in the lore: Beep boop
Servitors in fan fiction: *Depression*
This servitor: I AM LOCUTUS OF SERVITOR, HAND OVER YOUR SPREADSHEETS AND WATCH THE MASTER WORK.
If you haven't read the 40k book Master Of Mankind you should, there's a segment focused on the perspective of a battle-servitor who was made from a "criminal" and has pieces of their memory still in shattered fragments behind behaviour inhibitors.
GW seemingly doesn't want to address how absolutely fucked lobotomies actually are in their war game where theres still ultramarines who haven't received their complimentary handjob
I think they still pronounce "depression" as "beep boop"
@@Shotokan1001 Those memory fragments were recovered by her techpriest handler after her death. They were junk data artefacts. Servitor's don't have "behaviour inhibitors", they have large sections of their brain literally removed and replaced with mechanical components. There is no behaviour to inhibit. The servitor's PoV makes it clear she was otherwise completely vacant inside.
And this folks is why you don’t turn psykers into servitors
Can't? I've only heard arguments for the conversion of phykers into servitors in this audio.
@@user-vv4gz7lq1ethe sector is lucky that the psyker servitor in this story never fell to the daemonic influence of the warp. Had they, the whole sector would have been lost to the forces of chaos
@@animeemail8902 Details...
@@animeemail8902 My curiosity got the better of me and I spoiles myself. I had hundred percent expected this protagonist to use chaos in some way.
One thing that I extrapolated is that if they truly want to God machines they should infact indoctrination the best psykers in the imperial cult and trian them to work together before turning them into these machines.
Imagine if real powerful psykers who had great team work and an even greater conviction to serve the God Emperor worked together they could make the imperium great again.
Although this much advancement in tech could easily be classified as tach heresy. The tech prisest if anything are know for their resistance to change.
Servitor: Builds up a sector.
Tyranids: Its free real state.

Justifies the DIOT AIs.
You have to bring your own furniture but the house is free....
Well played VOX.. well played...
didn't he just say he was Tyran at the end? so was it all an illusion?
No, his name is Tyran because his family named him that and he remembered his name when he remembered the planets name. Him feeling the sand and whatnot is a hint at his power as a psyker who just happened to be made into a servitor@@Dubs22005
Mechanicus accidentally creating actual pothumans due to icompetance in creating servitors is peak 40K
Task failed successfully
Man of Bone confirmed
It's sure is
what is a pot human?
@@kevincastillomorales4858 poSthuman, just a Typo
Shame the Emperor of man never encountered this being, who salvaged the wreckage of his sector and made it greater, all just for the sake of seeing home again. the absolute strength of human character in this writing is just inspiring.
Then to get eaten a few years later by the ‘Nids.
Did he actually do that? It went from him dreaming of his ocean at the scholarum to never really *not* that. It seemed more like he was some sort of divination psyker. Might be something to do with why he could take over the whole network, too.
I belive he actually did, ''I saw a lighthouse, impossibly vast and golden,'' That don´t sound like the astronomicon? a golden ligth that showed him the way to greatness?
@@bandeirabandeirolabandeiro1698 HOLY SHIT, HOLY SHIT THAT IS , TYRAN IS THE STAR CHILD
F YOU TYRANIDS YOU ATE THE STAR CHILD!!!
A powerful psyker once took whole systems a prisoner in canon
Servitor's have such horror potential. They're such an over-looked yet eerie part of the lore
They are overlooked in their universe and ours it would seem.
The ultimate nightmare of servitors is not how horrific they are, but how…normal they are. These enslaved cybernetic human half-minds are as embedded into the society of the Imperium as tablets and microchips are in ours. They will hand you your tickets, call up from reception, do your taxes, even just act as status symbols. Servitors are the ultimate example of the Imperium's complete disregard for the humanity it is meant to preserve. The trauma of the Iron War weighs so heavily on every human survivor of the Age of Strife and especially the Mechanicus that anyone trying to use Abominable Intelligence is immediately marked for death and the alternate method of using cloned brains with no memory or punished criminals (of any stripe, from a mother forcibly dragged away from her children after failing to meet quotas or a serial killer, depending on the planet or servitor type) as wetware is considered a better alternative.
I think that is an important part of Servitors: They are EVERYWHERE. Take note everytime Servitors are mentioned as things rather than as people who lived lives and COULD live in the future. They might have been ruthless hivers, incompetent guardsmen, tech-acolytes who asked too many questions, and so on and so forth, the only thing uniting them is that they either pissed the Mechanicus off or worse, they just needed more labor.
@@kamaha0010 well not really that they pissed off the mechanicus or needed more labor in all honesty :/ they can live the thousands of years like that on some conditions
Most servators are actually very sentient and aware, but they are just acting submissive and so on- they know if they get too far out of line their ‘punishment’ ends~ and they would be very sad without that reward, most of them are just masochists that want some inhuman-looking thing sending stuff into their heads, moving and manipulating them and so on.
They are very submissive and breedable, which is also why they are everywhere.
Welcome to: how did this become lewd.
I really hope this sheds a bit of a comedy or just some really really uncomfortable stuff fo think about whenever servators come up that it’s just a underground sex cult, Kinda like the Genestealers but less about rape and being dommies, it’s just the more submissive side of it ^^
And let’s be fair, how much psychological damage would this aspect be if you brought it up during a game.
"I have no mouth and I must scream" but 100x
"Too powerful to be poor. Too poor to be powerful." is such a good quote.
Upper Middle Class woes
Middle class
I feel personally attacked
As upper middle class living in a hell hole i fully related to this.
Kind of reminds me of tuition. Poor kids got PEL grants, Rich kids got daddy’s money.
The imperium: Make a hell seemingly worse than the actual warp
Also the imperium: "why are so many people joining chaos?"
These... misled souls don't know that chaos is even worse.
@@Briselance How so?
@darkalley8595 If you want your soul tortured and raped for eternity then it's not so bad
@Briseur De Lance at least with chaos there's some level of free will and individuality
_HA_ you gullible pawn.
"I... am... Tyran."
That was... damn. I have no words for that. My skin crawls. It was a beautiful buildup to a most shocking ending.
(Well the stoy has a completely different meaning if you don't know what Tyran really means)
It can be interpreted two ways. Both grimdark. First way is the narrator did all that to find home. The last line lets the listener know that it will ALL be destroyed very shortly and everything he built was for nothing
Second is that the narrator is the hivemind. By growing his ability to assimilate other organo-mechanic beings into his one collective and his growing resentment for other life in the galaxy taking credit for his actions he absorbs Tyran and becomes one with it. Then he starts spreading out amongst the galaxy moving beyond absorbing other individuals and now starts absorbing entire planets. His fleets spreading their tendrils to consume everything and become one with his collective. The imperium in their brutality towards one another created the hivemind
Im torn on which is the intention because if you go back and listen to it the narrator acts a lot like the hivemind but him being the hivemind undoes what we feel we know of the tyranids. The lore knowledge though is always incomplete and many times incorrect
So, if the imperium should ever get the chance to find the main planet of the tyranids (if it exists), it would be a perfect blue marble - while all other planets, used by the tyranids are literally wastelands.
@@Pliniusgermanicus Tyran was a planet in the Ultramarine ruled sector of Imperial space. It was by all accounts a beautiful garden world, a near utopia. . . until the tyranids arrived.
Tyranids were given their name because the first planet that fell to them was Tyran.
Noticed that this lore might be helpful. Hope it is.
May the Emperor protect you in your coming battles
I think his baptism in the oceans of Tyran, combined with his connection to the "great ocean" AKA the warp, planted a hivemind seed inside him, which only begun to grow once he became a servitor, allowing him to subjugate other minds within the system.
Possibly both a low level psyker and a descendant of a gene stealer or otherwise infected with tyrannid DNA.
The progressive detachment of who he was to who he is perfectly narrated and written. The way how he goes from pitying those who suffer persecution to being a person who killed countless lives just so he could see that which survived with him above all else and then seeing him finally find what he was looking for his place and what makes him human again. He found home.
That is a fantastic comment my friend. Really appreciate the kind words brother.
Vox
Hey, this has nothing to do with the story or your comment but I just noticed that I'm the person who made the mini in your profile. So cool to see it in the wild.
That is insane. What are the odds
@@AVoxintheVoid Well I'm not an official GW designer or anything, it's just a bit of fan work I did awhile back in a 3D modelling program.
Wow!
This is, without exaggeration, some of the best narration I’ve heard. Not just for 40k, but for all Sci-fi. You elevate an already masterfully written story with an exceptional voice and delivery.
This is truly humbling for me to read, thankyou so much my friend
Yeah the narration of this guy this guy is top tier, it really is.
@@knowwe thankyou so much my friend 🙏
Absolutely, what an excellent delivery
If that said "I am Tyran" at the end then that just hurts given how the that planet gave the tyranids their name. But that really is nice, when an English person speaks of home, this is what they mean. To have that feeling so succinctly and artfully articulated is just beautiful
You got it brother.
And being from the UK myself I can totally relate
@@AVoxintheVoid same here good sir. I'd love to get my teeth into writing grim dark much like the video. I'd love to do one of krieg vs death guard in trench warfare but it's actually starting it that's the problem 😅
Jump on the discord my man. We have lots of aspiring writers who you could bounce ideas off of
@@AVoxintheVoid got a few other ideas as well, mostly aeronautica imperialis stuff
I've always wanted to do a piece on that...
Mechanicus thought they were making a servitor, ended up making Roboute Guilliman in robot form…
robot guillman
I only wish there were more Warhammer 40K stories like this. I love the humanity, challenges, and determination of the protagonist.
The author did a fantastic job with delivering all of these points. I was honoured to narrate it
Alternative Story Title: A boy that realy, realy, realy wanted to go to the beach.
I went from a kharne, to some random world eater to this masterpiece. Also since tyran is the place the tyranids got their name it’s cool it’s represented by a character that controls a hive mind.
This story just makes me theorize that what the adeptus mechanicus call a "machine spirit" might not be limited ai but just the souls of either the dead who entreat the emperor that they might still serve or servitors once connected.
Thank you! I was trying to wrap my head around the progression from servitor to whatever he was talking about later, but you hit in right in the head. He somehow transcended his physical brain/computer and became wirelessly plugged into other servitors, and then eventually the ship itself. Coordinating other ships beyond that is true impressive. It sounds like he became a machine spirit, an especially powerful one at that. Or maybe just a ghost in the machine, haunting/ administrating everything? Kind of a split hair either way, but really interesting and cool idea.
@@MusingSprite3045 seems he was an incredibly powerful psyker they underestimated. As usually only weak psykers are turned into servitors.
Dont look up 40k wiki then
I think this is probably true, and is even more supported by the tech priest in the Grey Knight book that has the Castigator Titan. Been a while since I read it, but the tech priest could "possess" machinery just like this servitor and could even control a warhound titan by himself. I think this and this short story strongly imply Machine Spirits are human souls
@@nanomachinesson2513 which funnily enough would make machine spirits a completely valid workaround to the "no ai" rule
Didnt expect the servitor story to go all skynet. Was a good tale, always love the fan stories you tell, and audio was gold.
Really appreciate the comment Brad. Fantastic story to read
Reminds me of IG-88’s story in Tales of the Bounty Hunters
Umm did he say at the end he was Tyran? As in the first planet that we know of, consumed by the Tyranids? That is a very cool ending for this story.
He did indeed sir. 🙂
It have to be grim dark after all hehehe.
Minor noble from a paradise world - turned scholar, turned nascant psyker, turned apostate, turned servitor, turned collective consciousness, turned Golden Age Of Technology level AI (of organic origin).
It’s like StarSector and the Geth from Mass Effect had a increasingly detached and evil child, pursuing a single, all-consuming desire.
More!
Turned into a hivemind
This is an amazing story because the reader is left wondering if this is the true origin of the tyranid hivemind or if he is his own hivemind consciousness that will see all his efforts destroyed in a very short time span after discovering home
Think about it. He was a psyker.
An amalgamation of souls controlling a network of extreme size across a sector of space, a feat only done better by Big E as a psyker.
...And a very massive ass beacon to the Tyranid hivemind that they could have been following TO Tyran.@@TheBacknblack92
About the ending: As JFK's favorite musical used to say (sorta) "Don't let it be forgot, that once there was a spot, for one brief shining moment that gave you joy"
The humble horror known as the servitor the perfect representation of the how far human has been forced to fall
Soo common, soo horrific, soo banal is the servitor
What a sad tale. I think it’s bitter sweet hearing him find peace but also that the Tyranids destroyed his world. At least he found his home before they took it, that makes it easier to smile on at least.
Or is he the tyranid hivemind himself? What we know of the tyranids is what the imperium believes to be true. Go back through the story and keep in mind he's basically becoming an organic hivemind manipulating the galaxy all to achieve his goal
He could have had his home destroyed right after finding it but he could also have absorbed tyran and become one with it. Then he decides to start lashing out at the imperium and xenos that caused all his suffering and the suffering of those in his collective. This hivemind absorbs more and more adding its biomass to the collective
It humanizes the tyranids and makes the imperium the architects of their own destruction at the hands of the victim of one of their most horrific behaviors. The narrator gets a strong appreciation for hating the imperium, hating humanity, and hating xenos throughout the story
@@TheBacknblack92he became an AI, formed himself from the husks of servitors and machines. He does not hate the empire for he sees the logic, he sees the empire as a part of his body. Something to be grown and used, but why hate a brainless machine?
Holy shit…this is one of the best pieces of 40k fiction. The end is perfectly tragic
It's a beautifully written piece of art. It was a honour to narrate it!
If a servitor could make such a career path wtf am I doing with my life?
Btw I think this is my new favorite of all your narrations.
I know right! I'm really happy that people have seemed to have gravitated towards this piece. It's not the usual kind of 40k writing and I always worry slightly how it's going to be received. I knew it was an incredible piece of writing from the start. Just gives me hope for other unique takes in the future!
@@AVoxintheVoid now I will be alone for a while, will have time to finish my Krieg tale
You don´t get much lower than a servitor or much higher as an millenia long-lived mastermind that have absolute control over a sector.
@@KillTeamHungary you're right if a servitor can do it do can I now I just halve to figure out how to trick the mechanics to invent new things.
This was a fantastic story and a fantastic performance
Can you imagine a co-ordinated Servitor rebellion? It was be a pretty awesome story.
The rebellion of the man of bone
It would be the funniest sh*t ever since the IOM supposedly uses servitors to avoid rebellions.
@@obrasilius6733Well what going to replace servitors , goddamn groves brain for computers ?
Servitors are usually the damned because of their consequences... Usually...
This story is more on bounds to the dark mechanicus
Dark Mechanicus are such a ill explored faction that their underating is criminal.
To quote, "many servitors are mindless, many have much more freedom of though and movement than they allow anyone to know
Relative to the Imperium, being born a psyker is one of the worst crimes one could commit.
Wow, the writing puts most of the Black Library to shame. So vivid & descriptive, & without reusing terms.
You were great Vox, i don't even feel bad the Iron Warrior one lost out.
Most definitely. He's got a real talent and writes incredibly well for a non native English speaker.
Thank you
Man that is the coolest emblem you have there on your profile.
I imagine there would be some grand irony if this poor servitor had actually been a Genestealer hybrid all along, but had simply not been far enough down the generational line to be truly affected by it, only experiencing a compulsion to return home and better it and the surrounding areas.
So this guy got sent to the scholar, found out he had psychic powers and was kicked out and turned into a servitor but kept some of his humanity and tried to find his home world?
A perfect example of why it’s probably a bad idea to turn a psyker into a servitor.
@@ARandomCogboi Or a really great one, I mean this one guy almost siglehandetly turned a backwater sector into a an epicenter of Imperial prosperity.
And then he found it just in time for the bugs to show up and ruin it.
@@themesongfan452 maybe i dont think it gave us a time line it could be hundred or thousands of years
@@erichansen82 bro its stated to be halfway thru m41 and to have taken a millenium
Great story, was expecting just a tale about how crappy it is to be a servitor, and all the horrors that come with it, but was pleasantly surprised by the twists. Good choice of music to. All that combined with your voice made a real great story. Overall great job (again)!
My headcanon for what played out after the ending:
Having found his home at last, the Psyker/servitor/self-delared-planet worried over the prospect of losing it again. So much time had been spent searching, so many armies it had led and xenos it had fought, that Tyran feared his blue gemstone would be destroyed in time. So he manipulated the Imperium into building a powerful bastion there one step at a time. He even found an Inquisitor he would bring to this world with the intent to take control of his body and live once again as a mortal, as one of the most free-to-do-as-he-pleased individuals in the whole Imperium. Yet as the Inquisitor slowly moved in the direction of Tyran, the servitor despaired. Contact was lost. He could no longer see what was happening on his blue world. And the Inquisitor started to find worlds which should have been teeming with life now dead and dormant. When finally they arrived at Tyran, there was nothing left of it but a dead rock and a carefully stowed message showing the devouring of the planet by an as-yet unknown species. The servitor fell into shock, despair, grief, and then rage.
Tyran would take full control of the Inquisitor as originally planned but now for an entirely different purpose. Rather than live on this world in comfort, Inquisitor Kryptman's new life would be one spent seeking vengeance on behalf of Tyran and the total annihilation of the Tyranid species. No matter the cost, no matter how many Imperial worlds must be Exterminatus to see the bugs wiped out once and for all, Tyran will see it done or die trying.
for a servitor the only way to take permanent control over this inquisitor's body is surgically inserting what's left of his brain into the inquisitor's head and spine =) and severing himself from machine infrastructure effectively destroying the Sector control system =) i wonder how could he even do it considering doing what he does basically in secret
@@aleksandrneprimerov278 The way I see it, the fact that he has psyker abilities, there are too many macguffins he can do to "switch" consciousness with the inquisitor. Theoretically speaking, he doesn't need his material brain for a "essence transfer" to another body. There are way too many examples of such things being perfectly doable in the lore already. The necros have such tech, the eldar and the dark eldar too, hell, even Fabious has a way to basically quick save and start anew if shit hits the fan. If a servitor could conquer a sector, he can easily find a way to control the inquisitor without endangering his existence.
That would make a great sequel to this story
@@YuriDSC Not so much, Cogitators are an enhancement, but as well can be a way to control a body. Remember that Mechanicus tech-priests and Skiitari have their brains augmented with Cogitators and Magos can take control of them through it.
I remember *O Brasilius* commenting on 'Choices' saying that he hoped to write a fan-fic worthy of this channel. I say he has succeeded. It is such a unique beautifully-written story. I had mentally prepped myself for a bitter, grim-dark existential nightmary story (kinda like 'I have No Mouth and I must Scream' yet told from the viewpoint of the AI). I was not expecting this. "I am Tyran" - damn, what an ending line. Bravo and well done! I hope his work is showcased again on this channel (the music was great, too). You all are awesome :) Now on to Iron Warriors, Black Ships and whatever else Vox has in store for us. God, I love this channel...
You're awesome wolf. Thankyou for the support and kind words as always. Iron warriors here we come
I didn´t expect anybody save from Paul to remember it, is good to see that other people actualy read the comments and remember them hehehe.
@@obrasilius6733 Im honoured to have so many followers who don't only care about my releases but also the people that make it happen
I remember seeing the comment once. His aspirations achieved feel sweet to my ears. Well done sirs. Well done.
Cerberus class organism discovered; Categorized "Evolved Semi-Organic Hivemind"; Designated "Tyran-01". Instance referred to [REDACTED] for pursuit of contact.
I'm not even a Warhammer fan but this is just spectacular. I'm completely hooked. Well done
Wait... Is this not a published 40k book? Did you write this!? This is amazing. The best story I've heard since I was a child.
I didn't write it, that honour goes to brasilius. But it is community written, by a fan for fans
Are you surprided that is not officially from GW?
Storys/Projects like that need compassion and love for a topic. Something GW and their writers lack more and more these days. at least in my opinion.
They found their home....10 years before the Tyranids came. What a gut punch
A masterpiece, Vox, truly. Blessed are the servitors who toil for the Imperium, nevermind their reason.
This was indeed an interesting story. Such an unique take on the universe.
The writing was top notch, the descriptions were so well done that I could visualize everything perfectly, and the story progression was quite an experience.
And, as always, the narration was amazing and well delivered!
Fantastic work
Vlw!
This I seriously think is the best 40k story I've heard
Here I stand at the end of the video.
Goose bumps all over my skin,
Jaw whide open from the final sentence.
Dude, can your golden tonque NOT create pure art with every sillable cast into the aether!?
You are far too kind sir! I'm glad the story has this impact on you. It was a true pleasure to read
The story despite starting as tragic, almost had a great end. Then the planets name dropped.
I had a bad feeling when I heard of Ultramar.
Made a Servitor when the only crime he committed was being smarter than his richer schoolmates and embarrassing there families’ names.
Fucking hell, the 40k universe sucks.
Is there really nothing he could have done?
SMH u damn SOB u actually made me care about a damn servitor well done 👏 , can't wait to see that join tab
Soon my friend..
When he says: "Free from the shackles of body and Time...is the Imperium ruled by those of flesh, or those such as I?"
The Emperor says...uh, yeah!

My friend, thankyou for the donation! Super appreciated!!
@@AVoxintheVoid you deserve every goddamn penny!!! Bro you are unreal ! Let me be honest with you, there are some very good Audio drama narrators on TH-cam. But you are something totally different ! Your dedication to flawless audio the background music and your voice brings your Channel to a higher level than anyone else narrating anything and I mean anything on this platform. Again you deserve every penny.
For me Warhammer first started as painting and playing the game but it evolved into something very different later on in my life in my adult life, I don't have the time to paint and I definitely don't have the time to play but the books have kept me going. I kid you not but I plan to read the Horus heresy to my kids instead of Harry Potter and hopefully by then you will have narrated all 6 million of them books lol so I won't have to read them to the kids you can just scare the crap out of em ! Lololol

This is on a level of it's own, a truly awe inspiring video. There needs to be more Warhammer 40k Poetry, it almost cries out for it in its parallel likeness to poetry during WWI and WWII
Internally: this story
Externally: SERVITOR GO BRRRR
This made me tear up a bit. And yet the end made it a pill even harder to swallow. Well done!
I AM...AWESTRUCK!
This Channel's creations (IMO) are at the pinnacle of and far surpass any other WH40K material (including 'Black Library's,which appear quite sodden,lackluster & unoriginal when compared to this Channels material) in this particular genre's niche.
Where as your Channels previously released material is without parallel, this 'new creation' raised an already heavy bar up another notch,a notch that will push & challenge other Channels (including your own) to greater heights of creativity.
A sincere & thoroughly appreciative "THANK YOU" is insufficient for the privilege...nay...the honor of being taken to new auditory levels that even Slaanesh would enjoy!
May the Emperor Protect,protect us & this exemplar Channel from GW's paranoid "Witch Hunt" for IP heresy.
You're too kind sir. May the emperor protect us all in these dark times...
In all seriousness, you have supported me for a long period of my time on TH-cam and I thankyou from the bottom of my heart

Brother, this is my favorite audio. I love to fall asleep to your story, and your voice makes it so easy to fade away
Dream with the ocean brother
tzeentch influenced his dream's and set him on his fate as the architect of his sector. The Sea is his domain ever changing.
Thank you for sharing it
I AM A SERVITOR. I AM A SERVITOR, DR. HAN
nothing has come close to the high I feel listening to this masterwork
I’ve been looking forward to this.
I got the impression, at least at first, that the Servitor was merely more and more pleased over time because his brain was able to process data and calculations more efficiently than before, akin to the 'happiness' felt by an old computer that receives extra RAM. In which case, the return of his humanity is what frustrates him as he's no longer able to calculate as quickly, eventually losing his grip over the expanding sector.
All this from a story about a bio-computer wanting to go home. Excellent.
I always circle back to this masterpiece when im on my Vox in the Void binge
You've really got tbe voice for this
Space marine, imperium guard, servitor it all fits
Thankyou brother! New one coming this evening!

@@AVoxintheVoid 😎
holy shit. This is outstanding idk why but this has reverberated so much with how I felt being separated from the Ocean and having to move to Las Vegas to follow my work. absolutely wonderful, and heartbreaking. Fantastic
That is what makes this story great , it isn't just about a servitor , it is about a feeling we all had , the missing of our home , be when you travel abroad , be when you had to work all day, be when you move from place to place, home is still on your heart, and we all will feel it at some point
Vegas has its ups and down. I hope things worked out for you.
This was incredibly touching... Who would have ever guessed that a story of a servitor would hit home so close
Arrived a bit late to the livestream but that means I'm early for the video that remains! Bloddy awesome work!! Thank you for this! I LOVE IT!!

I love this. Waited for the devastating crushing of his soul until the end.
But yet, here it is: a happy end in the 40k universe.
Thank you for not telling his story to the end. Because we all kbow: there is only war.
The "happy end" of Tyran lmao
This story and a psykers tale by baldy are two of my favorites 40k stories.
Here from the Amber King and this narration and musical backtrack are absolutely enthralling. I've painted and continue to paint my admech , with this on a loop repeat. So much inflection in the absolute sheer horror , dehumanization and rehumanization. Amazing work sir.
Thank you, and once again, thank Paul for giving life to this story
... absolutely... stunning!
Noiiiice
My journey through psychosis felt similar.
Hope you are better now mate
All that to find out his planet is probably gonna get a visit from the Tyranids soon
This channel is going to blow up, just keep on trucking. You got it. It’s a sure thing.
Thankyou Matt. I'm going to keep pushing my brother!
What a great listen. Love how the planet was once so very beautiful and full of life... We all know what happens later sadly :'(
This is fantastic! So glad you’ve decided to continue your 40k stuff. It’s amazing.
Holy Craptacular!
In a universe of “just following orders “….a bureaucratic automaton with an imagination and drive is an unseen power!
I found you through my bomepage suggestions and listened to abomination, but hearing this...oh my god man. You are a gift to 40k fans.
I've come back to this masterpiece and I'm astonished at the writing and narration. I can only say
!!!!!! A VOX IN THE VOID !!!!!!
One of my favorites brotha, I always find myself coming back to this
Me too
The virgin imperial lord vs the chad servitor
At the end I kept hearing Tyrant,thought that was pretty grimdark itself.then I played it back and heard Tyran,now I am cry
Hail Imperator
I listened this earlier in the day and now I caught myself remembering it like I was remembering a dream so vivid and real. But it wasn't my dream it was your story. You guys honestly make stories so real it's hard to forget it's not a memory. I always feel like I was there. Thank you guys so much and I hope you have an amazing day.
Thankyou so much for your kind message. It's always a good feeling to know that my narrations (and obviously the authors of the pieces) resonate with my audience to this degree. Have a great day my friend
Awesome story and narration! 👍🏼
I listened to this while I was staring out the window. I don't think I have ever been more at peace while listening to anything than this. It was exceedingly well done. The narration, the ambient music, the changes in the voice, and just the overall feel was immense. Thank you so much for putting this out here. I will come back to this video multiple times in the future. Thank you again for this. I was so entranced, that when it finished, I felt shocked to see my computer's screen. I could swear I was feeling this story as it unfolded. Excellently well made.
I love this story..truly one of my absolute favourites of all time.
This one was really good. I particularly enjoyed the direction that it took which was not at all what I expected and the ending was superb. Very well done.
This was excellent both writer and voice actor. Bravo sirs, bravo.
Can’t get over an off your narration. Such a great job! Keep it up!
That twist at the end hit me like a truck.
The ending makes this story infinitely more tragic. Awesome video brother.
How brilliant that somebody has done this and done it well!
I have had the same idea for some time now,, totally different take on this "from the eyes of a servitor" idea of course.
BEAUTIFUL!
Wow! Great story. They touch on this idea in the tech priest's of Mars series.
Awesome story. Glad I've found it.
Great work!
This is an excellent work!
Fantastic narrations as always. Such a well written story aswell. excellence all round. Brilliant .
Thankyou kindly knife work. I was honoured to have the chance to read this piece
I still come back to this one from time to time, it makes me feel so deeply understood for some reason.
As the seas of his world call him, this video calls me. At least its easier found haha, gonna binge all your videos again.
Thank you again, for doing what you do. I truly lack the words for how good they are in every front.
This blew me away, was honestly so much better than expected.
I just got this recommended today, and it's quite an introduction for this channel.
