Imagine being the 15th generation of crewman upon a pilgrimage ship inside the warp. You have spent your entire life not even knowing what reality looks like, the entirety of your existence being of bulkheads and engines. Until one day, when the impossible occurs, and your ship enters the holiest of star systems, the work of your entire bloodline is nearly achieved. Then the ship is promptly vaporized by a passing frigate from Battlefleet Solar, because your ship failed to follow some obscure protocol. Welcome to Warhammer 40,000.
@Lord Admiral Spire Seeing as some ships will arrive before they even left. I'd say it's not beyond possibility. This is the warp after all. Logic and generality went out the window back when the old ones and the necrons decided to wage a war great and horrible enough to warp an entire dimension of emotions and souls into a self sustaining tortures nightmare.
I like to think Lorgar and his Imperial cult are mostly to blame for this futile waste of manpower. And now that he's joined chaos, he'd claim that undermining the Imperium with pointless fanaticism was his idea all along.
And you don't want security over terra? Or do you just want to lock the civilians, even those affluent or capable enough to move, to not go where they wish? Even if the IoM was Atheist idiots like this would still be flooding terra. Just the excuse would be one your own sensabilities would deem ok, despite the death toll possibly being higher as the people have less reverence and more arrogance as they approach.
The overly exagerated description of the scale of that gate makes me rather tempted to build a replica of it in Unity and go visit it in VR. He gave pretty clear dimensions of it's height as being half a kilometre tall. Everything else I can just extend it's dimensions to go on infinitely into an unlit space and call it accurate. Warhammer makes grandiose description and fanatical exaggeration an art form. It's always been interesting to see how effective it is at captivating people.
Just be careful for you too may have your soul crumble to dust... (please create this, I will literally buy a Vive headset just so i can kneel and pray all day at the Gate, just be sure to add the angelic choir ^^ )
I have heard that a cup of coffee costs £20 and you have to queue for hours to get it. Total ripoff. All the holy terra merchandise can be got at a fraction of the price on Mars where they make most of the stuff anyway.
What's actually amazing is that this stuff happens in real life too. Not to lower the sanctity of such acts but St. Jerome the Translator of the bible from Greek and Aramaic to Latin Vulgate made a pilgrimage at the end of his life to the actual manger of Christ. There he laid his head upon the resting crib of infant Jesus and died. St. Benedict patron of Europe, was near his death due to sickness and called his servants to take him to receive communion and after with the aid of his servants holding his arms to the sky and saying prayers, died.

"... blue-hazed sphere of Uranus..." I laughed FAR too hard at this, but just because of the pronunciation of Uranus in such a serious record. Ya got me.

It’s like watching a BBC documentary or something, the music, pictures, and narration. And of course the length, 40K lore is only done right when it’s like this.
You have the most amazing narration voice for 40k I have ever heard. You just have this perfect way of conveying awe and reverence, and gravity to your words.

It would be the equivalent of discovering that Heaven or whatever afterlife your parents raised you to believe in (or that you chose to believe in of your own volition) was actually a real place.
I had only half heard of Warhammer before I watched this the first time. I once had an old roommate and friend who would sometimes be hired to paint miniatures, but I never paid the subject any mind. But something about the title captured my attention, maybe the recognition of the name mixed with a youth spent draped in Catholicism and terms like pilgrimage and holy. Your voice though... your voice stole my focus for 40 minutes. My imagination exploded with all the horrible and marvelous possibilities of a world teaming with life and misery and scale. That was about 2 years ago, and the breadth and scope of the verse still holds my attention like little else before it. Thank You.
New to Warhammer 40K, and I have to say this is exactly what I've been looking for in this series. Also you do a great job orating this. It feels like I'm a student in a vast library being told what to expect by an Elder. I can't wait for more.

Wow. Incredible word smithing. Terraquice realm, my goodness, I can just feel the throngs of humanity undulating through the scene. Truly excellent. I subbed two days ago and have been just pouring through your playlists. Your the best Lore channel hands down.
This might be your best video. Your descriptions are really vivid and grand without being pretentious. You also always do an exceptional job of expressing the the very complex melancholy of the 40k universe.
I have listened to this so often and this has to be one of the best piece of Warhammer Narration I've ever heard. It mixes the unreliable narrator and the storytelling so well. It's so good.
How can anyone who likes 40k dislike this prime example of lore? Just no simpleton haters. I’ve listened to this many times. It’s one of my favourites.
@Chris Hansen And you say that our holy God Emperor enjoys these heretical worship chanting? Throne of the God Emperor, you will be burned on the stake for saying such heresy, chronicler.
@Chris Hansen My apologies, chronicler. I did not realize our holiest Emperor had taken inspiration from this ancient religion of "Christianity". Excuse my ignorance while I read up on more ancient Terran history.
I listen to this every night because I find it so calming to listen to and delightfully bleak. Haha. It send me to sleep. It’s a fantastic piece of descriptive 40k writing. Very well done. If you can it would be great to have more of these. Lore stuff is fantastic as well but this was a journey into 40k and that doesn’t happen often. Many thanks for your work.

Yes
>compares Terra to adulterated heresy
>Inquisition - You're on thin concrete you heathen (Ice doesn't exist presumably)
it may be an older video but damn is it the most evocative of them
Wow. Incredible word smithing. Terraquice realm, my goodness, I can just feel the throngs of humanity undulating through the scene. Truly excellent. I subbed two days ago and have been just pouring through your playlists. Your the best Lore channel hands down.
I absolutely loved this. Your lore videos are simply the best there is.
This has been my bedtime story every workday the past month and a half
Omnissiah, allow this channel to grow and flourish.
I love this vid. I've Listened to it at least 10 times now.
Wonderful! :D
I don't think I've ever heard an account go into so much detail about the experience of the heaving mass of humanity in 40k before.
This might be your best video. Your descriptions are really vivid and grand without being pretentious. You also always do an exceptional job of expressing the the very complex melancholy of the 40k universe.
I'm about to watch this man's whole channel.
Incredible video. I've seen many great videos about 40k, but this may be one of the very best.
I have listened to this so often and this has to be one of the best piece of Warhammer Narration I've ever heard. It mixes the unreliable narrator and the storytelling so well. It's so good.
Finally a 40k lore channel that serves lore intelligibly.
Subbed
this video is like a must watch on a yearly basis
This is amazingly well done. Absolutely fantastic. Worth every second.
“Through conquest be there glory unto He. He alone, who sits upon the Golden Throne,, grants eternal salvation upon thee.”
How can anyone who likes 40k dislike this prime example of lore? Just no simpleton haters. I’ve listened to this many times. It’s one of my favourites.
I love 40k. The lore is amazing and the scale is monumental.
This was brilliant, loved every second! Keep up the greatness! =)
Just, amazing. Love the voice acting. Bless the Emperor.
Your humble observations and tales, illuminate like the astronomicon's beacon beckons a weary ship. So that It may shed its travails.
This is one of my favorite 40k videos ever. I love the music you use, and your voice and character. Such a horrific world, but absolutely epic!
I have never played the game, and propably never will, but the universe of WH40K is one of my all time favorites!
"Dead Gods"
*gregorian chant through whole video*
Who is this fake god of "Gregoria" you speak of? Is he another Chaos God birthed by the unholy heretic Eldar?
@Chris Hansen And you say that our holy God Emperor enjoys these heretical worship chanting? Throne of the God Emperor, you will be burned on the stake for saying such heresy, chronicler.
@Chris Hansen My apologies, chronicler. I did not realize our holiest Emperor had taken inspiration from this ancient religion of "Christianity". Excuse my ignorance while I read up on more ancient Terran history.
@Chris Hansen Did you not just say the word in your previous statement?
It isn't a Gregorian chant. It's a choir
I listen to this every night because I find it so calming to listen to and delightfully bleak. Haha. It send me to sleep. It’s a fantastic piece of descriptive 40k writing. Very well done. If you can it would be great to have more of these. Lore stuff is fantastic as well but this was a journey into 40k and that doesn’t happen often. Many thanks for your work.
Excellent video , I enjoy listening to your videos while I'm converting my chaos knight ... great work
This is my favourite video on youtube
