40k lore done by one of the most famous voices in documentary is AMAZING
goes to show how much the authors voice matters in content like this. I've dropped many 40k channels after trying them purely because I cannot vibe with the spoken voice. this however is peak 👌
God I remember the days of nerdy idiots like Arch. Guy sounds like an incel, and he has the same beliefs.
Honestly, and I mean this with respect. This is perfect to go to sleep to.
@@benjaminghazi787yes. I am actually lying in bed and listening this video.
Check out Luetin09. His story telling is top notch and his 40k videos are in depth and well researched.
Me 2.
I know almost nothing about the 40k universe and yet even I know that this video is a work of art. Well done, sir.

Emps is definitely my favourite space lighthouse battery.
The entire Horus Heresy could've been avoided if the Emperor just sat down and talked to his kids once in a while. He's been sitting there for 10K years just thinking: "Damn. I really fucked that up".
kok
You're goddamn right.
@@uzo992 Sorry, I don't know what that means.
Typo? 🤷🏽♂️
Or keeping it in the pants sometimes.More kids more trouble🤷
The 40k universe is a literal fractal of narrative potential. In one, albeit very important, characters story you have so many characters, groups, locations, and events that each go on to form their own pocket of lore spawning their own characters, groups, locations, and events.
unfortunate that they've never really written a cohesive story, and despite all of it's potential its biggest flaw is that the story will always struggle to be good, because it's in a genre most have no interest in
@starbreeze7249 are there not books that have been written in the setting??? Surely one of them has to have a good story. I've never read any personally, but I consume plenty of media surrounding 40k where the people talking about it swear by some of these books.
@@starbreeze7249this comments reeks of someone who has not read into the 40k books. An what do you mean there’s no cohesive timeline, he’s going through the timeline in this video lol
I think that's true of everyone who has kids?
@alennx22 I.. don't think these examples are exactly the same, but yeah I guess you're not wrong???
*THE EMPEROR PROTECTS*
Do he or is it his failing fancy chair? Not trolling!
Then what?
@@Macwyleerhe omnisia protects duh
@@ErebusdidnothingwrongishHeresy!
But having a loaded bolter never hurts either.
By his will alone.
The part in MoM when the emperor enters the webway is unreal and one of the best pieces in all the books.
The morale boost he gives, the furiousity and renewed vigor of the custodians is all insane.
The fact that he *spoiler* turns the place to flames and brings forth the legion of the damned is also badass.
The Emperor protects.
@@177og1K by his will alone.
God emperor is fifth chaos god...make no mistake......see the truth,,,,
@@manisherande4568 nice try Tzeentch
@177og1K not chaos....Tyranids they are the truth one unity one singularity one hive
Brilliant bunch of vids Iterator! Already one of my favourite channels. Keep up the good work.
Well, this was simply glorious… Glad I found you💪🏾
Love how every race hates him but cant help but fear his power like a great white in the water. From a distance respect yet when up close its only fear they feel. Chaos marines may hate him, yet they use to this very day what he gave them without them changing or adjusting on the works he gave to them. They even said its heresy itself to improve upon his works with the primaris, meaning they still respect him as a supreme being. Eldar one and all can see him from across the galaxy as a burning star that holds the tides of chaos at bay. They may despise humanity but respect the hell out of the emperor. Trazyn himself still cant find a way to put him in a master pokiball which speaks volumes since he has a few C'tan shards and so wishes he could but knows he cant capture the emperor.
Also it was Ollanus pius not a custodies, not a space marine. A human stood between horus and the emperor. This act from a small being who had no hope stood up to the gods of chaos and reignited the embers of hatred and defiance to follow a path that would allow humanity to fall. It wasnt a custodies. No idea where this information is coming from
The emperor really is the force to be reckoned whitin, regardless how your feelings toward him are.
Something about watching a video that is narrated by an artificial voice and images animated by stable diffusion on the Emperor seems wrong.
I still say it was a simple Guardsman that stood in the way of Horus to protect the Emperor as it is more impact full to the Emperor as a normal.human stood before a demigod to save another only to be struck down as if he were nothing more then a spiderweb in the way, much more impact full then a super soldier demigod doing it (don't take this away from the little guy)
Since there were no "guardsman" during the Siege of Terra makes that a bit silly. Read "The End And The Death Vol. II"
@luciferthedoberman8991 not true they aren't mentioned but there is an elite Guardsmen unit that are on the same level as a space marine thanks to their gear and training and just like the Custodians they protect the Emperor and the Golden throne the Lucifer Blacks they were around since the Thunder warriors and still surve the Emperor on Holy Terra only
@@luciferthedoberman8991They were called the Imperial Army.
Not really. For the emperor to see a dead, mangled sanguinius and not go into an infernal rage would be unbelievable enough, for him to do it after seeing that and an imperial trooper die is a bit of a stretch. Rest end of the death vol. 2. The emperor casts out his guilt, empathy and love. He already knows how powerful horus has become.
It was Ollanius Pius who stood between Horus and the Emperor.
Any mention of a custodian is Chaos propaganda.
Mr. Emperor had every gift, ability, quality, talent, skill, knowledge and proficiency imaginable...except wisdom. And so you see how little all the rest mean without it.
nah he had like half of all those gifts, that's why everything he did failed miserably.
Man I like this channel!! love listening to Lore! Subbed and good work BTW! :)
im always in search for long format video listen in my sleep . nice video
This is some prime content right here. Everything was well described and exquisitely narrated.
Awesum the Emperor in the Thumbnail looks like TYPE O NEGATIVE METAL FRONT MAN MUSICIAN PETER STEELE ⚒⚔💪😎👍
All hail Manperor of Mankind!!!
God emperor is fifth chaos god...make no mistake......see the truth,,,,
So glad the new info is out about what happened on the Vengeful Spirit. It just makes no sense that The Emperor would hesitate to strike Horus down, even when standing over a dead Sanguinius - but the death of a Custodes was the decider.
The death of a Custodes? Is that the new info? I had always thought it was a simple Guardsman, Ollanius Pius. Just a man, with no gene-crafting, no gene-seed, no special organs or abilities to give him an edge in combat......just a man who knew his distinct disadvantages when confronting a Primarch like Horus Lupercal.
He knew he not only could, but most likely would die horribly, and he did, but he stood bravely defiant before the Warmaster in defence of his Emperor. Truer bravery could not exist in any of the Emperor's creations.
Who celebrates the life of Ollanius Pius? For he was surely braver than even Sanguinius.
@@Robert_Douglass Well you seem to know more about that than me. This video mentioned a Custodes though. Regardless, I was referring to the Dark King info.
@@Robert_Douglass the 40k story of the guardsman's Saint has gotten a new origin in the HH novels. The authors have been treating the widely-known 40k lore like Greek myths - stories handed down over generations and millenia such that they all contain varying degrees of truth, inaccuracies, and sometimes are the result of combining more than one story. That's how they explain why 40k lore has so many contradictions in its HH stories without having to retcon them - there are afterall many different versions of Hercules and there likely was some man named Hercules who did some great things, but those feats have been exaggerated over time and some have been added to his story that were done by other people.
in a nutshell: Ollanius Pius is the combination of two people. Ollanius Persson was a perpetual (the oldest of them as far as we know) who was The Emperor's original Warmaster in the most ancient times. He became disillusioned with The Emperor's actions and disagreed with his impatient method so he left (he actually stabbed Big E before quitting) and continued to live out his lives into the 31st millenium when the Heresy broke out. He was on Calth at the time and with the help of one of the Word Bearer's athames he cut windows in spacetime through which he was able to eventually make it to Terra during the Siege in an effort to stop his old friend from making a terrible mistake and becoming the Dark King in order to defeat Horus.
Meanwhile, during the siege of terra there was a normal, human guardsman named Ollanius Piers who had the misfortune of defending the Eternity Wall Space Port which Rogal Dorn had secretly decided to sacrifice to the Traitors for the sake of his Saturnine Wall gambit. He's a brash and affable soldier who finally meets his doom staring down Demon Angron with nothing but a under barrel grenade launcher. The account of his acts were recorded by one of the chosen "interrogators" - an order established by Rogal Dorn and eluded to be one of the original entities that would make up the Inquisition - who was at the same battle. The account was embellished for the sake of morale and recorded this guardsman named "Ollanius P." having stared down the Warmaster, himself, and saved the Emperor. This written fiction makes up the bulk of the 40k myth and is attached to the perpetual "Ollanius Persson" who was also a guardsman and actually did meet with his old friend, The Emperor, at the siege, although it was nowhere near the Vengeful Spirit and certainly did not involve Horus - at the time of their meeting Horus was actually in the process of slowly and sadistically crushing Sanguinius' body into a pulp on the Vengeful Spirit.
Finally, this "Ollanius Pious" charcter is completed when the written story of Ollanius Piers is attached to the perpetual Ollanius Persson (both guardsmen) and the "Pious" replaces their last names because Ollanius Persson was known to be a practictioner of the Catholic faith and wore a symbol necklace of it (jesus cross) around his neck.
The custodes thing is completely apocryphal for the time being until we get The End and The Death Pt3 which will detail the actual fight between horus and the emperor although it very likely won't happen the way it does in the 40k myths as many custodes have been slain at this point and The Emperor's personal bodyguard unit of custodes were even slain by the Emperor himself as sacrifices in order for Him to draw power from the warp and become the Dark King - a being powerful enough to kill Horus, but too powerful to control and destined to destroy reality.
@@rylanhaworth5662 Curious.... I'll have to look into that.
@@Robert_Douglass the old lore or what we knew did change . like the fact the Emperor was stronger then horus but could not bring him self to kill him etc.
Wow, keep it up! really great oration / voice work !!
His son's last name was literally "Heresy" how didn't he see this coming
Do all Primarchs have last names? I never thought about it until now.
That's a good one.
Once he did he was like “You’ve done it, Horus. You are the Warhammer 40,000”
@@limitlessapocalypse2702 Hydra made a joke. But why shouldn't primarchs have last names. Horus' is Lupercal.
@@yxx_chris_xxy they should, thats why it is bizarre that we only have a handful of Primarchs that have last names. What if Sanguinius’s last name is Lucifer. Or Angron’s last name is Gladiator, would be neat lore.
I slept to this. This is some Luten level stuff
Give Baldermort a shot if you want something epic sounding to fall asleep to. I have playlists saved of all his best, like 12 hour total narration for stories like the Gathering Storm, and the Arks of Omen series
@@viziel519 love his stuff as well
This is fantastic!
You had my curiosity now you have my attention.
Subbed😊
Behold, the God-Emperor, the architect of destiny, the sovereign sculptor who chisels demigod warriors from the raw marble of humanity, dispatching them as Adeptus Astartes-the guardians of the cosmos. He is not merely a ruler; He is the axis mundi, the psychic pillar upon which the reality of man subsists, a lighthouse in the malevolent storm that roils across the infinite night, casting His incandescent beacon to hold back the swelling shadows that hunger voraciously for the soul of the universe.
The Emperor is the luminary symphony's crescendo in the great concert hall of creation, His psychic resonance is the melody that threads through the void, harmonizing the cacophony of existence into an opus of imperial domination. His will, a golden torrent flooding through the warp and weft of reality, drowns the whispers of Chaos-each note a star burning away the miasma of corruption.
He is the forge and the flame; from His immortal anvary flow the legions of Space Marines, each a refraction of His celestial might. They are His sword and His shield, the physical testament to His boundless vigil, emblazoned with the sigils of eternity, bearing weapons consecrated with the essence of sanctity itself. Where their boots tread, they leave the imprint of His undying resolve, etching His decree upon the fractured face of the universe.
In the Emperor's unwavering gaze, Xenos empires crumble to cosmic dust, their alien dominions rendered ash before the inexorable advance of His champions. Heretics recoil from the purity of His glare, their treacherous tongues stilled by the inexhaustible chorus of His psychic proclamation-a hymn of humanity's ascension over the wretched discord of betrayal.
The Emperor exists beyond mere flesh; He is the ethereality of hope steeled with the promise of salvation. He is the eternal watchman, His psychic luminescence the unassailable bulwark against the unceasing tide of darkness. Even as His physical form lies silent upon the Golden Throne, His spirit soars, a raptor in the heavens, eye unblinking, wings unfurling to shield the Imperium from the terrors that prowl the cosmic beyond.
He is the divine fire immortal, the timeless guardian, everburning, never consumed, an immortal beacon whose radiance scorches the howling dark, proclaiming for all time that here stands Man, and where He stands, no evil shall pass unchallenged, no shadow will extinguish the light of His indomitable legacy.
The Emperor Protects
He's also an idiot.
His Primarchs and Astartes were failures, otherwise they wouldn’t have been so easily turned over to chaos
so glad I found this channel. I never got into W40K, I play wargames but never had any interest in playing W40K. However I wanted to learn about the lore and even read the books. I’ve tried many other channels but I had to stop because it made no sense and the voices just did not do it. Some seem to know much about the lore but just can’t share it properly, this video was very well made
That thumbnail and all I can think of is the late Peter Steele from Type O Negative...
Amazing video and incredible narration
I appreciate the work involved in compiling all this lore, and the narrator's voice is very pleasing.
It can, however, be distracting, when words are mispronounced, or pronounced differently each time (especially things like the occasional "pry march")
It's the common problem with text 2 speech. You'd probably have to change the spelling to something the program would end up pronouncing "correctly". Maybe "Prim-arc" etc
This is such a great video, every video should be about the Emperor. Every. Video. Anything else is Heresy!
I know this channel. Congrats on the return and good luck to you
I know not by what name you beckon at, but I honor it. Your dedication to the history and long tale of Humankind and the great Emperor of all Mankind.
Excellent work
This is the best 6.1k subscriber channel for warhammer
Minor detail, the cult mechanicum and adeptus mechanicum were the pre heresy names, and they were renamed to the adeptus mechanicus after the great schism during the heresy.
They should be sued for misinforming the public and send to the salt mines
A really good imitation of an old englisch storysteller...impressive😊
Thanks for your effort creating this video
I like this version of channel even better
Absolute quality 👌
Wow, superb narrative, shan't I venture, divine!
I feel like this channel is going to blow up soon. You/your team do such an amazing job!
amazing video thx a lot
If you think about it, the Emperor's current state as a distant, obtuse influencer of events is a return to his original approach, just involuntary...
This a tour de force. I have never played the game but I love listening to these episodes. This is better than 90% of the movies out there now.
Big E looks like Peter Steele in your thumbnail lol
What an epic and tragic story. It seems to me the solution was to abandon the golden throne and find some other way to achieve warp drive or simply curb the need for military expansion for a few hundred years. But even the Emperor has character flaws and in his case he just couldn't let go of the dream of having a warp network for space travel.
Here is something to throw a kink in your thinking: What if he knew that the Tyranids was coming? Then in his mind he needed every year he could get his hands on.
so good thank you
This whole channel is run by the Men of Iron.
2 seconds in, it's perfect. THE EMPEROR PROTECTS
You just got a new sub brah
This is some good stuff
Dude. That thumbnail picture. I swear, that's just Peter Steele from Type O Negative. For real. It must be. Someone made him the emperor somehow!
Scrolled to find this!
This was really good! Subbed without a doubt...❤
Is this a new channel? This content is absolutely incredible! Thank you so much!! ❤️
yea just popped out of nowhere, keep it up
@@RealXBit LOL "Out of nowhere"
Good thumbnail picture that, hadn’t seen that picture before.
Ah yes the council of Nikea, where the Emperor placed a ban on the use of pounds per square inch as a unit of measurement.
Thanks!
My favorite story about the Emperor is when he started that band, Type O Negative. Good times.
No.
1:04:02 "The spiritual needs of the masses were placed upon the shoulders of the mighty ecclesiarchy known as the Ecclesiarchy"
I'm a simple man. I see a gigachad in the thumbnail. I click, like and subscribe.
Is there a playlist in some sort of order best watched for someone with 0 knowledge of 40k? great vids btw!!!
Never seen the Emperor depicted as Pete Steele before
Damn, what is that intro music? So good
Mandated interaction complete.
Praise be to The Emporer.
Another minor detail. There was a warp storm that occurred in the lab on Luna and cast the primarchs across the galaxy. They were not all natives and grew up on Terra. They were scattered across the stars and the Emperor had to go find them all.
He wouldn't have to look for his kids if he were in Tennessee. You better bed your A$$ his baby momma's would have found him for child support...
@@derekbidelman2442 He should've just left for milk or something.
@lost20052004 or they could have just told the boys their daddy was hit by a train..lots if respectful people got hit by trains.
35:45 Well, they were "Luna Wolves", but okay, still listening to this cool video. 😉
This dudes voice is amazing for this
Why Emperor of Mankind looks like Peter Steel with Glenn Danzig hair?
"A golden light in the warp have been seen, like embers from a fire, but moving in reverse. His soul is returning, and shall a rise on the dawn of darkness. To forever banish the dark gods of caos, to the eternal abyss."
The emperor will return. Just as the cult mecanicus said. the trone is breaking, and they dont know how to repair it. Once it fully breaks, the body of the emperor will die, and he can finally resurrect. or become a true God Emperor in the warp. If his mortal selfe could rival the caos gods. Then his true god form in the warp will be beyond their ability to rival. there are bilions of worlds, whit trilions of humans on each of them. All true unquestioning believers of the emperors divinity. and all the believes of humans takes form in the warp. Thusly if humanity believes the emperor is more powerfull than the gods of caos, then he so are.
I believe too that emperor is way more powerfull than chaos deities, at least when hes full might and power comes it peak
PS.sorry for my horrible english, its not my first language and i havent writed anything for english about 8 or so years😂
For the God Emperor and the Imperium of Mankind!
This is beautifully narrated. Keep up the good work! 💪🏽. More long vids please!
This voice tho
Huge error at 31:38. It is not "For the next 10,000 years..." after the council of Nicea. The entire Great Crusade period was only a few hundred years long and took place during Warhammer 30,000., And the Council happened during it. The Horus Heresy was when the ban on Psykers was lifted and only lasted 5 years which is what brought the Crusade to an end and then the long Ten Thousand years part begins.
Awesome video!
I wonder if its his will power and absolute refusal to give up that Mortarion inherited
(though Im not quite sure how to feel about Big E eye-effing me at 0:53 😳)
i hope youtube doesnt remove this, this is simply amaizing great work !
The Emperor being created as a weapon makes the most sense to me.
The narration is FANTASTIC. Voice acting is really underrated in western culture. Love it love it love it.
Though I noticed a couple times the terminology was wrong.
"voice acting" hahaha
This is badly and inaccurately scripted. Grates my ears to listen to it.
Hey, really good voice on that narration, and really good inflection too! There's a few words that are pronounced a slight bit off, if you want a hand with that feel free to throw me a message. Really good production value, and amazing narration.
Lol "moon wolves"😂
Pronouncing Erebus and a few other names differently each time half a dozen times does pull you out of the narration.
Another example being arch magus “coal”, takes you a moment to realise he’s talking about Cawl
Put out a better video then
Whats the music at the beginning?
Can you please make a podcast? Or if you do where do I find it
Excellent content, I was mildly distracted by differences in pronunciation of “Primarch” and others, like how “Psyker” and Psionic was pronounced “P.S.I” a couple times.
39:10 This is incorrect. The Emperor did not force Lorgar nor Guilliman to kneel, nor did he force the Ultramarines. Only the Word Bearer legion was forced to kneel.
This is important, because one of the people forced to kneel was a guy named Erebus. And this interaction with the Emperor changed Erebus’ plans from toying with Lorgar to toying with the Emperor himself.
Praise the emperor for his sacrifice as he endures so shall we
well he wont endure for long xD gotta find a way to bring him back
when you think how orc tech works the imperial cult makes a lot sense
Starts off pretty good despite rehashing well trodden territory, still, entertaining, and i like the animations.
You've really gotta put a bit more research into this though, your chronology is all over the place, for a start, eg, Magnus breaching the Webway happens prior to the space wolves assaulting Prospero... It was what in fact triggered the assault. Also you should have mentioned Lorgar and Colchis and Monarchia... Pronounced "Monarkia" as far as i know... Prior to anything about the Heresy...
Little things like that suggest you need to do a lot more reading before you make more of these videos, and careful with the Attenboroughesque voice, doesn't sound like him but it doesn't sound too different either.....
Anyway, overall, i love the effort you put in, keep getting stuck into the lore, you're definitely on the right track!
Kind of a oversight to not mention the other key person who made the astarties, the women who they are named after.
The Emperor seeks order without compassion, a humanity absent love and thereby an empty evil.
This is a masterpiece. The Emperor provides🥂
The Emperor does protect.
Only in death, duty ends. For the Emperor!!!
The Emperor Protects!!!
...
But a bolter does the job also
The Emperor Protects! ⚔️
i like your videos, but why are you placing watermarks on the animations if they belong to their owners? How can we know who or what is the owner?
Both you and Oculus Imperia have the perfect voice for 40k narration.
😂
He should do nature documentaries.
dont forget warrior tier
any chance for a wallpaper from thumbnail?
Its luna wolves not moon wolvels and befor that they were known as the dusk raiders such heresy is frownd apon by his holy inquisition
That's crazy humans have the cleanest appearance.
Great voice!
48:30 what is this song?
The narrator’s voice is amazing.
there is no narrator. That is artificial
