    I'll admit that Dorn and Guilliman becoming two of the most human and relatable Primarchs were not at all an outcome I expected from the Heresy, or the direction taken by the Dark Imperium novels, but I've loved seeing them struggle and strive in a very human way. Even moreso when you get to contrast their internal worlds with how others experience their presence. Rogal's insistence of being in the room with the Astropathic Choir during the scene here is a deeply relatable feeling as a brother, but those around him feel his very presence like a blazing sun and his words hang in the air with the psychic presence only a demigod or a true powerhouse within the warp could match. And this from the Primarch whose very being was so antithetical to demons and warp-spawn that they weaken in his presence. Imagine the effect the psychic presense of Magnus would have had, or the golden aura of Lorgar so nearly identical to the Emperor's? And yet despite their presence as Warp gods made manifest in human flesh, and the speed and scope of their minds, they're deeply troubled and even relatable-- especially those who were always previously seen as either Mary Sues or boring automata of logistics or defense like Guilliman and Dorn (well, until he went full revenge mode post-Heresy).
    It's not like there wasn't a lot to be said for having Primarchs as mythical figures and their full list of deeds and thoughts unknowable, but I've really enjoyed seeing the humans inside them contrasted with the legends that surround them

      Dorn, Guillemin and the Khan (the Alderi laughing God is said to made sure the Khan landed on Chogoris, instead of Fulgrum as was Chaos intent) had the most 'normal' upbringing of all the Primarchs. Which makes them more 'human' than their brothers in many ways. Without all the mental illness.

    It's like Gulliman, Dorn and Perturabo's personalities are on a spectrum whilst they have similar abilities mentally and physcially. They're all geniuses of organisation, strategy, tactics and warfare but their personalities shape their approach. Gulliman being the most diplomatic, conciliatory and tolerant; Dorn a mid point of solidity, stubbornness and tactiturnity; Perturabo - perfectionist, calculating (to the point of deception) and likely to overreact to those who fail to meet his often unreachable standards.

    The writing is already on the wall for his story arc. He’s not dead, he’s not the same, and we will see him 11th or 12th edition to face the full might of the hive mind. He will come back more emotional yet still pragmatic. He will take more spontaneous action while being tactically sound. I am not going to type a novel but if you pay attention you can see how each primarch is going to come back and there temperament. RG said in dark imperium novels he needed a legion and a stalwart ally to help. The lion has changed to become more understanding and reserved. Dorn will return to be the thing to crush the hive mind with not only sound tactics but true random movements to throw off the final showdown. GW has done great work by allowing the authors to clean up the timeline and have a plan moving forward. The big E can back with all his sons and still have plenty of enemies. The ghoul stars could carry the story for decades with a returned Big E and still be awesome.

      Strong relationships are built through repetitive trust. Had the Emperor brought Perturabo into his close confidence by charging him with the defense of Terra he would have made it clear he valued his skills. By using him as he did he made him the distant ultimately disloyal creature he became. The Emperor is to blame for many of his scions being easily corruptable.

      @mersenniusprime another great take! I also just look at how Big E treated the loyalists vs how he treated the sons that would fall. Not to mention that at Nikea Magnus commented on how Big E looked upset. And I feel that's because he didn't want to do some of his sons dirty but he needed to in order to make them prime targets for temptation. I truly believe his plan all along was to destroy the Chaos Gods and become the one true Warp Power.

    • @mersenniusprime
      @mersenniusprime ปีที่แล้ว +3

      @@BerathorPainting A bit outside of the topic of this video, but I've always found it odd how infrequently the interaction between the Emperor and time travelling healing coma Horus (during his Erebus field trip on Davin) is mentioned when talking about the Emperor's motives. At the very moment that the primarchs were scattered, the Emperor saw Horus, accompanied by beacon of corruption that is Erebus, in the room. There was no way that the Emperor couldn't see what was happening there. Horus even said that it looked like he calculated the entire fate of the galaxy right before his eyes, right before walking away from Horus. Whether his original plan was to orchestrate the Heresy in order to become a god or not, I find it dubious that his plan didn't change in that moment.
      Also, I never bought the idea that his goal was to construct a new webway. Chaos was obviously deeply afraid of him. Why? Building a safer means of warp travel would hardly destroy chaos, and the Great Crusade didn't seem like a realistic way to eradicate superstition, at least not on the scale required to be a real threat. If you take the stories at their word, nobody's motivations or actions make sense. The Emperor has to treat half of his sons like shit, tell absolutely nobody (including Magnus) about Chaos, do virtually nothing to stop Lorgar from making a cult in his name, not recognize the extreme corruption in people like Erebus and Kor Pharon, and think that Chaos wasn't going to mess with his little pet project after pissing them off. All to build a giant road. On the other hand, Chaos had to pull out every single stop, use a huge amount of their power, and risk their very existence in a fight with basically the only person who could actually destroy the immaterial...why? Because he was building a giant space road? Meanwhile, if the Emperor's true plan was to use his sons' betrayal to create a galaxy-wide ritual to empower himself, then get himself mortally wounded so he would be free to live as a god while maintaining a human body (and therefore his free will, unlike the Chaos gods), it explains all of his actions and why Chaos was threatened enough to act the way they did. I think the whole thing was a huge gambit from both sides, with both the Emperor and Chaos knowing exactly what was going down, because it was inevitable. It was too good of a chance for either to pass up, and the risk was worth the chance to destroy the other side once and for all.

      It isn't weak lore, people are simply too retarded to actually read it.
      The Imperial Navy started shooting at the IF fleet to comply with Guilliman's dictate to break the Legion into Chapters.
      After a lot of meditation Dorn relented and realized that he had no good alternative and broking up the Legion would help with protecting against large scale rebellions.
      The thing is he knew his Legion wouldn't accept it even if he came to accept the inevitability of it.
      So he tried to get two birds with one stone:
      a) Get Perturabo, to attone for perceived failures at the Siege of Terra.
      b) Let the Legion take heavy losses so that the remains accept the break-up.
      Dorn knew that the fortress set before him was waaay to much for one Legion, but it helped with point b).
      The twisted IF Legion reasoning makes sense if we keep the character of the Legion in mind.
