It was an absolute pleasure and honour voicing Talos for you! Hope everyone enjoys the video!
Ave Dominus Nox!
Stain your hands in sinner's red! But really, awesome work, thank you for your excellent contribution to the 8th legion!
WE STAND IN MIDNIGHT CLAD
Dude, you killed it, absolutely fantastic reading.

Nice name
Ya did great kid...
Hello, Prophet.
"I wanted to be a toaster. Look how that turned out."
@@alastor8091 well those grenades did certainly toast you.
"You are hypocrites! We only kill hundreds to make the planets come into the Imperium's fold, and you kill in the thousands, you are the real butchers!" **turns and leaves while his human skin patchwork cloak flutters**
That's just how it be in this bitch of a galaxy, I'm afraid
Lmao perfect comment. As a night lords main since 3rd edition was new, this is them entirely 😂
Wonderful mate, top work
Hey Sandman, great to see you! You're one of my favorite narration TH-camrs! You,Amber, and Ole Baldie have been fantastic company on some of my longer drives!
Uzas ended up being one of my favorite characters in 8th legion writing by the time his tale ended. Himself not being too unique, his story was told brilliantly.
His death is sad
Agreed. I felt a similar kind of empathy as you would toward an alzheimer's patient, in a way. He never quite understood, but in the end, he DID try. Not that it mattered.
After 9 years of constant warhammer lore this is the most incredible Story I have ever listened to.
Books are worth a read if you haven't yet
Second that the books are worth reading. This is just a brief summary and hits only the most basic notes.
Books gave me unrealistic expectations of what the rest of the library was like. Nothing can match these books though. Have read 70 or 80 more since reading these first last year and these just hit different. From the numeral slaves and the get the life below decks and their Stockholm Syndrome,and the thrill when you read the word PreySight and know that it's about to get real.
Night Lords the best
The Night Lords trilogy is one of the best 40k stories I have ever consumes and they are more than worth it. If you liked this video, you will enjoy the full story experience. 🙂
My fav warhammer channel. I listen to this channel while I'm painting my warhammer commissions and while i lay in bed sleeping, ex veteran and i cant sleep without white noise. Tyvm amber king for everything you do.
Favourite and the best!
Same
I have to have something to sleep to, either ww2 videos or metal mostly.
Talos and the rest of first claw solidified my love for the setting when I first got into it. Thanks for this video, brother!
38:25 i love how often youll have the Night Lords in a novel or something and they'll "Utter a single a word", that word ALWAYS being "Preysight" and it ALWAYS being cool af.
It is a curse to be a God's son.
Jesus wants know your location.
Kratos approves this message
@@Plight_Kratos the wise is much much scarier
WoW, 22 years of this hobby,
The lore the story... dude yall knocked it out of the park. I'm in awe, thank you.
AVE DOMINUS NOX!!! This will be my new favorite and most listened video from your channel. I wish Black Library release a sequel books of Night Lord Trilogy cause I really want to know what happened to Talos’ successor
Hail, decimus
Long live the prophet! May he unite us sons of the Night Haunter back to the legion of terror and remind the galaxy why they once cowered in fear when they heard we have come for them.
Long live the prophet, Decimus!
Have you heard/read Throne of Lies? I came across it after downloading the Trilogy (Soul Hunter, Blood Reaver, and Void Stalker).
Something about that introduction of abbadon was just so damn heavy, so unbelievably epic...flat out flith!
Xarl killed a named ultramarine? Does that put him in the top 5 power ranking for warhammer? Right above Nurgle?
When I finish work I generally have the intention of either watching a movie, paint or play PS5. But when I see Warhammer content as premium as this I make my camomile tea and I kick back and listen to this masterpiece, thanks mate!
Oh joy ! Another 4 freakin hours of glorious Amber King lore content! Best TH-cam 40k lore videos hands down 💫🥳
YES!! you know will sleep good when you fall asleep to some top tier lore videos
Where are you watching them?
So glad you paid homage to my boy Talos. I honestly hated the Night Lords and found them generally cringe AF until I read this trilogy. Now I love them but only the "Talos" warband lol hopefully we'll get continuation of their arc with his "heir"
i doubt it can fit into 40k canon, a newblood night lord uniting the 8th, it should be impossible, the old high ranking officers could not do it. Only Kurze and Sevatar could ever make it happen imo.
I thoroughly enjoy your content man. The VA's that help you spin these wonderful yarns are top tier!
was watching a majorkill video and saw you had a new one too.. had to shut that majorkill shit off and watch a real one! 💪
Why do you watch him if you don't like him?
@@freekill1018 His rewriting end times videos were cool until he didn't finish it
You did a great service to the story of Talos. Amazing job brother, keep it up!
Hal, you knock the ball out of the park every time! Your storytelling gives me goosebumps!
Dam, gotta change my schedule to watch this bad boy!
you better !
i swear, some of those people that are voice acting on yt, are way better than pro personelle.
I love how you can do serious lore and live comedy lore😊
I’m so happy I got to see the premiere ❤ excellent work as usual Brother
This is one of your best videos. Don't know how many times I've listened to it now, lol.
Fantastic trillogy. Looking forward to this!
Masterpiece!!!! Thankyou for this, it really has opened up the nightlords perception
This is an absolute treat, great job as always! I love listening to your videos while driving long distances. I listened to this a while ago, but had to return.
By far the best lore channel, great job as usual.
Hey, thank you for making these videoes. Going through a rough time in my life and everything on the Amber King channel has just been a pleasure to listen through and really inspired me to pick up reading books and audiobooks more often ✌🏼
An emotional ride that questions sanity and morality. Bravo sir. Few parts gave me goosebumps and a few made me almost shed a tear. Rip Talos
The best trilogy ever produced by black library, and you guys did it justice. Thank you!
OMFG a 4 hour video, love your work and videos.
This was an awesome story!! One of the best I've listened to so far. I never thought I would like the Nightlords but I have a newfound respect for them. Talos has a awesome character ark!! Ave dominus nox!
This is brilliant, great work as per usual. I quit 40k in 4th edition and never expected I would return. Then I read the ADB trilogy and it re-ignited the fire. Characters like Sev and Talos are so interesting to me, your channel does them justice.
For those who havent read the books and short stories:
Variel the Flayer survives and extracts Talos' geneseed. He finds Septimus and Octavia, and ends up taking their child, Decimus (the tenth). I'm not sure whether they die or not.
He then implants Talos' geneseed into the child and seeks out the Atramentar to begin the rebuilding of the 8th Legion around the new Prophet whose powers now come at no detriment.
The final short story is a young Decimus, with Variel and the Atramentar by his side, assembling a meeting of all the various Knight Lord warbands to prove he has inherited Konrad Curzes ability to predict the future. He accurately predicts who will join and who will die. This is right before the fall of Cadia.
The reason the Aeldarii wanted Talos dead is because the newly assembled Knight Lords led by the new Prophet Decimus destroy an Aeldari Craft World.
You absolutely nailed this - outstanding work! Thank you so much for doing justice to 3 of the greatest books ever written.
man this was simply amazing, absolutely killed this video
so insane quality, sick that you have other incredible voice actors with you plus the writing is also amazing, I'm excited for Guilliman next and hopefully Sanguinius in the future :)
Talos impaling the assassin on his sword, and whispering “ave dominus nox” before igniting the chain sword is one of the coldest and badass moments in warhammer!
amazing work once again!
This is amazing!! Thank you, Hal
great production! I was always astounded when I first listened to the audio book and Talos has the balls to chastise Abaddon for using a too formal tone to reference Konrad Kurze lol such a great back and forth between the two
Holy hell almost 4 hours! Perfect for my 4 hour drive today!
YYYEEESSS!!! God i needed this so badly today lol ALL HAIL THE KING!
I cant believe the quality of these, they are so good!
I had a go of making an hour long video and it took forever and still no where near this quality!
👏 👏 👏
What a pleasure of a listen... tysm ❤
Nice!!! I have just finished the Night Lords Trilogy and love every part of it!!!!!! Talos is the best and most badass Chaos Space Marine in the whole lore!!!!!
Hail to the lord of night , Ave Dominus Nox. Claws on the walls..
Hal you bloody legend you've done it again. Mad good stuff as always
I've been waiting for THIS BAD BOY!
This!!! By all the gods THIS!!!! I never, ever rooted so hard for a Nightlord since the betrayal at Istivan!!!!! This was storytelling at its zenith! The Soul Hunter may have fallen but he will NEVER be forgotten!!!
Such amazing writing….and reading.
My favourite legion done Justice, finally. Well done good sir.
Didn't know that to expect, fantastic video. Thank you!
This is my favourite so far!
Thank you for this amazing video Amber King!
Talos has become one of my favorite 40k characters ever. Though I'm a loyalist at heart, the Prophet's story in the Night Lords trilogy is so darn compelling! The Night Lords became one of the most fascinating traitor legions in 30k especially Sevatar, and their 40k story with First Claw was so compelling. So many layers indeed! And man, Uzas' fate is so heart wrenching...
Talos is still a traitor and a monster, and I feel his final fate goes to show that even the traitors don't have "good endings" in this grim dark universe. In some ways, his story is definitely tragic.
ADB was a genius making this trilogy and I agree completely with you about how Talos is built up maybe like an anti-hero, but ther third entry reminds us he is very much a villain. He is a monster putting the teachings of Curze to practice. And fate simply caught up to him after his many sins.
Great summary of the trilogy and thanks you once again @TalesOfTerraVA for voicing the character so well!
That was brilliant I loved every second of it fantastically delivered
You truly are the king of lore. Another home run.😊
Love that this came out while I’ve been reading the trilogy
This was a joy to listen to; thank you for it!
After watching this, Talos & his crew are some of, if not the only, of the 8th I’ve enjoyed. Excellent work :)
Wondered what the next project would be..
Not even the biggest Nightlords fan, but 5 mins in and I'm seriously vibing this!..
Top work AK, thanks yet again for all your efforts..
😎🙌👊👊
“I heard bolter fire” that’s just too damn cool
Literal chills! Excellent video!
this has to be the best 40k lore video out there. respect
Everything about this from story, artwork and voice acting was brilliant. Thanks
I have listened to the night lords trilogy 3 times now. This was freaking awesome. Thank you so much. Ave Dominus Nox.
My brother, every single video is masterpiece!
Long live The Amber King!
This was awesome. Great listen to relive those books.
Hands down this is brilliant
35:11 What's the background music here?
HELLLLLLL YESSSSSS….. you are such a rare talent. I love your work
THE AMBER KING !!!!!!!!!
It's time he's BACKKKKKKKKKKK ! HAIL TO THE KING
Having loved the audiobook rendition so much it was hard to switch these performances but you guys did great after l settled into the new voices
This!!! This was FANTASTIC!!!
Hello King, as always, AWESONE work.
And with this, you convinced me to be a Night Lords fan
Pd: you should work with BurialGoods, the guy has a fantastic and brutal voice to any charcter you want to give it life.
The Uzas redemption arc was amazing to read. Death is nothing compared to vindication
It's amazing that a traitor can be favored and loved by so many in this setting. I have completed the omnibus at least 5 times now and I tear up every time, but listening to you my friend, really stirs up the emotions. Talos Valcoran, the Prophet from Nostramo, traitor, whose life and subsequent death will forever be remembered, by those who know his tale. Thank you, brother.
This should be good can’t wait to hear this
No one has evsr made such content on talos probably no one will without copying content from from this video. I cant say i have a fav video from amber kimg..they are all good
The most human moment I've ever heard coming from the Night Lords of all legions...how ironic.
The only primarch to hate his own legion
Angron:and I took that personally
I finished the trilogy last month. This vid is a masterpiece.
Ave Dominus Nox!
You just casually drop a video on my favourite character
I just finished the books about a month ago. I’ve already read Da Big Dakka and half way through the Eisenhorn omnibus. But the Night Lords omnibus will go down as one of my favorites I’m sure anyone who reads it will agree. The 8th has touched my heart in this dark universe. Lol
I am so freaking hyped! I managed to find the Night Lords Triology audiobook with the bonus Throne of Lies!
Also got A Lesson in Darkness, a story featuring the friggin Night Haunter!
Hi dose anyone know the sound from 34:25? I've gone through Amber kings sound track lists multiple times but I can't find it?
“I thought you were a hero! Heroes don’t do things like this! …I wish I’d never met you.”
-Conrad Werner
Well I've found something to lurk in the dark and listen to as I slumber.
Thanks I know this will be great thanks in advance.
A continuation of my favorite vid. The night haunter. His sons. So broken. So right.
Thanks!
Loved it
this channel is a gift
You just gained a fan good sir
Thank you!
I'm not gonna lie but I actually shed a tear when talos removed zals gene seed. Fucking beautiful
This is gonna be great!!
Dear god that was awesome! Have you ever considered doing a video chronicling the first twelve Black Crusades?
