Oh Alpharius you silly man you can't reason with the last wall Rogal Khorne!!
He can’t even read! How can you reason with that man
Sadly, BL copped out and kept Dorn as the worst character in the history of literature. He will ascend as the Chaos God of boringness, and weaponize infuriating uninterestingness clad in flavorless vanilla.
Yeah text to speech nailed his personality pretty accurately
I've made this comment before and I'm gonna make it again: This channel is criminally undersubbed. The amount of passion and effort put into literally every video is amazing. Keep em coming AK.
Agreed. We need more people here celebrating this man's work.
gives the feels man….cant get enough.
1000%
Alpharius: "Hey Omegon, I just had a hilarious idea."
Omegon: "Lay it on me brother."
Alpharius: "We're twins right?"
Omegon: "Yeah."
Alpharius: "And no one knows that we're twins right? Especially not that idiot Rogal Dorn, he can't even read."
Omegon: "He builds a mean highway though."
Alpharius: "So here's what we'll do; you start calling yourself Alpharius and I'll start calling myself Omegon."
Omegon: "Some mindfuckery, I love it. By the way, some of our boys have been making themselves look like us."
~Alpharius, Head of the Hydra by Mike Brooks.
Can confirm. Read the book.
Reports of my death are greatly exaggerated - Me, Alpharius
I am alpharius
@@ChristopherDwigginsAnd I am Alpharius.
I agree
Would love it if Alpharius knew he could not persuade Omegon from siding with the traitors and made the ultimate sacrifice by betraying his twin and putting him in the path of Dorn. Cut to 40k, Dorn is imprisoned and Alpharius after struggling with the guilt of killing his twin and hiding in the shadows for years breaks Dorn free. Bit soppy I know but tying together their return to the setting would be amazing
21:00 is such a great Rogal Dorn moment. He used to be such a boring character, a sort of Guilliman clone. But here we see that Rogal, despite being antithetical to the methods of the Alpha Legion, does understand perfectly how, if not why, the Hydra operates.
I’ve long believed that Alpharius and not Omegon was the loyalist half of the Alpha Legion. And Alpharius was either instructed to by the Emperor or formulated a plan himself to prevent the outcome of the Heresy. And it was fitting that the man he would have to convince is possibly the only man he could not ever convince. That’s why Alpharius chose to meet a raging Rogal Dorn in a manner that was all to Dorn’s strengths and absolutely not to his own. The only chance Alpharius had was to meet Rogal Dorn in the way Dorn would never expect Alpharius to do. It wasn’t enough, and whatever it was that Alpharius was doing, knew, or had planned, it died with him.
I love these long format videos it's the best way to listen lore . Hope we get more in the future Necron Eldar Mechanicus lore would be nice 👍
I still believe that Omegon died by Dorns hand and Alpharius lives.
A name is just a name, another tool to be used and discarded.
Maybe neither, there is that scene in the prior book where Dorn can't distinguish between Alpharius, Omegon, or the blood augmented space marine. All 3 heads of the hydra are in the throne room and Dorn picks Omegon as his brother, but he can't even tell there are 2 primarchs there. That test set up this fight.
The GREATEST LIE about the Alpha Legion told is that they even had a primarch at all.
Lost, like all the others, the primarch for the 20th was. But in the search...he was never located.
Rather than live perpetually in the shadows of the other legions, the 20th BECAME Alpharius. Each individually, with the limited use of residual genetic material from their father, could step forward and lead as needed.
So, when others encountered this 'primarch stand in, they were none the wiser because it was the body double they most engsged with.
In the end, no matter how many were slain, when someone steps forward from this legion and stated "I AM Alpharius"...it is the literal truth. And the only one that will ever be uttered from the lips of the Hydra.
This was fantastic!
New sub
You really captured the tragedy in this tale.
When I read the book, my brain had me as a Bro of Dorn, but I missed the emotion of the moment the first time around. it took a second read to see it this way
I love the music on the background. It makes it much easier to zone out sounds from the outside
Yes!!! thanks for all your hard work! This is great and I'll def be listening to this as i drift off to sleep the next few nights! Really great topic to cover!
The king is back.. he know what we want what we need to sleep. thank you, and this is just in time its 11:47pm was setting up to sleep now
cant w8 for more long format videos some Eldar maybe ?
reported for misinformation
alpharius lives
i am alpharius
Out of ALL the lore channels this is the one I come back to time and again and the only one where I can listen to a whole 2 hour long video without cringing at jokes or memes
The voice acting is perfect and I have recommended your channel to all my friends as others have said you deserve all the views and subs and likes and money for the 10/10 lore and performance
"I did this, so you'd understand" *Alpharius calmly shouted*
Hehe, chainsaw go brrrrr
-rogal dorn, Praetorian of terra
3:32 A NEW HAND TOUCHES THE BEACON! Sorry, just the ptsd kicking in when he said "another hand."
Did Alpharius die on an 80's action move? I liked that intro music lol.
It’s Dawn of War theme remake :)
I feel like this is the one sleep video I'm never gonna wake up from again
I love your work so much, my favorite so far was magnus' story....the emotion was so raw and well done 😢😮
No wonder Khorne was so eager to have Dorn
Dorn of Khrone lol
Merry Christmas Amber King!
May the Emperor protect you and yours.😌
Merry Christmas brother and thank you so much!
@@TheAmberKing You earned it man. I am just, in the only small way I know how, showing you how much what you do is appreciated. 😎👍
Alpharius lives! As for omegon, he didnt know his brothers well so he tryd to reason with Dorn out of all people, so obviousl didnt end up well for him :3
thank you for another amazing video brother
crazy, was just about to go sleep and you make a video on my favourite primarch haha
21:09 i remember getting chills when i heard that part in the audiobook. Another moment proving that Rogal was an S tier Primarch in terms of tactical competency
How, oh how am I supposed to fall asleep when you make such an extraordinary and incredible story?? All I want to do is keep listening to it!!!
I love this. Thank you Hal.
Beautiful storytelling.Thank you for the entertainment.
Loved the video fell asleep immediately 10/10 ;)
New person here... need more of these sleep videos, please 🙏
I slept well during the part where Rogal rips out Alpharius's spine and uses it as a whip 🥰
Hydra Dominatus.
Absolutely love your videos. Hope you're able to make them for years to come.
The ending hit me deep in my feels.
See Rogal!! Yoi cant win! My plans to perfect!
Dorn: he he storms teeth go brrrrr
Excellent, thank you! I always appreciate more lore to sleep to!
I think what actually happened is that Dorn wasn't there at all. It was really just Alpharious and Omegon fighting with one of them disguised as Dorn for reasons, and then killing one of them off. Cuz they love it when a plan comes together.
It's either that or there was never a twin and Alpharius was just using his Primarch speed to look like two people standing side by side.
I think ive gotten 2 amber king and 2 tarnished archeologist videos in two weeks its like xmas is already here
I listen to both these channels also.
Your probably a Cool guy haha
Keep up the good work Brother 👍👍🔥🔥 1:29
Omegon is my favourite. I believe Alpharius turned traitor and Omegon wanted to dismantle the Cabal and side with The Emperor.
Nice flashback to your original intro music.
Missed this 1, glad I saw it now
"I do not trust anyone who only speaks the truth." Wow. How f*cked is that ?
Title just admiting that I absolutely use these to sleep to
Dorn's bodycount during Heresy is actually pretty damn impressive.
Killed Alpharius
One punch KOed Kharn
Smacked Fulgrim around
Pissing the sh*t out of Khorne just by talking
Damn...
But he was the Praetorian, and failed to defend his father.
@@AlternicityBlogspotI mean so did Sanguinius but everyone’s still blowing his dead ass even after the last book had Horus all but use the poor bastard as a fleshlight during their battle.
Oh man, that hits the spot 😌
I am Cypherius
Alpharius was a assassin, spy, and master manipulator, but he was lacking warrior, general, and brother, which he is remembered as nothing more than a liar and weakling to the Imperium and Traitors alike.
This was great!
"The Death of Alpharius" citation needed
I am not dead, i am Alpharius.
Amber King great work. What is the name of the music that is played the first half of this video? It was also used in your horse Lupercal video
Mechanicus OST
Alpharius: "Hey bro, we just took a world at a minimum loss"
Dorne :NoOoOo, We NeED oPeN wAr ThAt WiLL cOsT tHouSaNdS"
Bro, chill out, you think an Aestartes massacre would not generate any resentment at all?
Spoiler for volume 2 end of death
On the vengeful spirit Horus has layed a trap for khorne to try’s to turn Dorn, obviously direct conflict would not work so instead Dorn is trapped for centuries in a desert slowly forgetting everything about him all the while khorne offers escape if he submits slowly enciting Dorn to accept only true freedom will be if he gives in and accepts blood is for the blood god .
Now keep in mind the vengeful spirit is a hyper focused point in which the warp overlaps with real space and the 4 powers of chaos are putting most of their focus here at the moment meaning the majority of khorne is most likely trying to tempt Dorn and is laying siege to dorns mind. 7:53
Dorn forgets the majority of who he is but one thing he remembers well is not even his name but his knowledge of literature he has read, he recites this in reponce to khorne temptations …every piece of analytical data, strategy and even historic record he knows he literally frustrates khorne, educates him, rejects him and bores him in the process😂 all while staying resolute. In a way it’s like a bit of tts Dorn is present in the moment where the might of the blood god tried its best to turn Dorn and he basicallly just says *NO* and while basically half crazed with dementia. Then eventually finds a weakness and escapes.
I think any of the loyalist would of also not given in but the manner in which dorn fights khorne is so unique and don’t know how many would genuinely be able to find a way to frustrate khorne to the point that in a way he is the one trapped in there with them
"Falling to sleep" content to stay up for.
Just found it before bed perfect.
Title should have been “back breaking story to fall asleep to”
Very cool scene
The Serpent will rise!
There's no head.
@@Ninja40K thats exactly what they want you to think! I bet they're still alive somewhere. On a more real life point, I think we can be pretty sure that GW will find/construct a way to get all 18 primarchs back in the main narrative somehow. Even the dead ones.
dorn is such an aweful unlikeable character...perturabo is way better
The Alpharius that died to Dorn was actually OG Omegon, and the OG alpharius lives on... right?
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE DO THE BLOOD ANGELS
What is the name of song at the start with the canting ?
Too bad it wasn't alpharius
Do we actually know if the one who died on Pluto was Alpharius or Omegon?
We know that the one that lived seems less douchey than the one we usually see depicted.
@@similaritiesendherewhich I GUESS tells us that Omegon is the one that lives,since Alpharius was pretty egoistical and had that "everyone except me sucks" attitude in his primarch book
@@petrrozsival8554 What it tells us is that despite all of Alpha Legion's subterfuge, humanity can still tell the difference between an asshole and a much bigger asshole.
@@petrrozsival8554 maybe Alpharius was somewhat humbled when he realized his twin got humiliated in battle.
Need thanquol episode
You mean the "death" of "Alpharius"
This is the work of an Imperial fists propaganda enjoyer.
Eli definitely wont be falling asleep to this
Can you do a video about bile?
Best sleep aid available.
Time to Warhammer and chill ...
Rogal Dorn, Defiant and…….
"Death"
I am alpharius
And I endorse this video
god i miss your old videos where you didnt try to draw out every word. you have a good voice stop trying to force it
Feels like he's trying to be the remembrancer, like the intro, to the music, to the speak pattern...but that's just my observation
R.Dorn was right in this situation. and Alpharius is SO not smart. he thinks he is tho but books tell us otherwise
Ugh yes. He does think he is very smart .
Dorn has little to like about.
What if they were triplets?
There is 3 to the power of 8 divided by the square root of pie cubed that A = O = A = O... chances are he Is the emporer 😂
OR WAS IT REALLY THOUGH?
.
As usual, I came super early.
Kinda wish alpharius was better explored and handled... Its a character with such a great potential, but 50% of the content written about him is unreliable and the other 50% is him being reduced to an arrogant prick whose sole purpuse is to be outsmarted just to show how much sharpwitted someone else is.
I kinda wish you'd narrate as you do in your standard videos.
If not maybe a performance that's a little less forced.
Nonetheless thank you for your efforts
me too :)
I know what you mean some times it does sound forced but for the most part he is right on point ☝️ I enjoy it very much
First lol
Please no music for a sleep video 😢
