"We are the only legion hated by their Primarch."
*The Iron Warriors, World Eaters, and the Death Guard have opinions about that statement*
Mortarion never hated his sons he wasn't as open as some other primarchs but he loved them. Perturabo doesn't really hate them he just view them as expendable just like most general and high ranking officers of the Astra militarum view the rest of the guardsmen. Angron kinds of hate almost everybody soo it doesn't count
Angron did hate his legion (he literally said to Kharn that his real people died on Nutseria and that he always hated Emperor and his sons) Perty just didn’t care
@@XD-sc4ix Didn't mortarion sold his soul to nurgle to save his sons from ethernal suffering?.
@@SkitariusNoKD indeed
Came down here to mention the world eaters specifically but looks like you beat me to it. Edit: For real though, how were the World Eaters not considered with that line "only legion hated by their Primarch" Angron had what 1/10th of them killed any time they lost a battle or didn't win quickly enough? Am I remembering that right that it was 1/10th?
I wanted to be a hero
look how that turned out
We all did, Randy.
That quote hits hard considering what Talos could've been.
@@terminatorofbaal7853 well Jago became a hero of sorts ..
Do you feel like a hero yet?
Raven Guard: We're the emo legion
Night Lords: Hold my beer
I guess the Raven Guard despite their emo style, have a more gothic theme.
Raven guard are emo. Night lords are edgelords
I absolutely love the accent Andrew Wincott gave to my boy. It’s perfect.
It legitimately made every other audiobook jarring and unfun to listen to
@@CHRISTOSANESTI2023 exactly. The only person that comes close is Johnathan Keeble and his Khárn.
@@CHRISTOSANESTI2023listen to any Necron book read by Richard Reed, man is able to give undead space robots so much life.
I want what Talos wanted for the 8th as well. To rise & be strong.
That sounds like heracy *loads bolt pistol*
The Night Lords trilogy audiobooks are so fucking good
I would love a word-bearer tribute that points out the ironic hypocrisy of the current imperium.
I feel like Lorgar regularly throws a fit about how the Imperium actually believes Emperor is a god now but doesn't want to accept whom he believes to be true gods of humanity. Like they're halfway where he used to be but didn't really move from there for 10k years
@@bloodfang9820 I think he gloats about his book being the teaching material of the Imperium in 40th millennium. The Emperor's worst nightmare.
@@cornixdemetrius7883 Lorgar when an Imperial Saint starts burning him with holy fire
Tbf he got lucky predicting that Big E would become a god but he was trying to hide and protect Lorgar and his sons from the dangers of the Warp and tbh if Lorgar was conquering planets at a good or okay rate Big E wouldn’t care as much
I think the closest we'll get is this excerpt from Black Legion, where a group of traitors from the heresy have come out of the warp believing little time had passed, but in reality a long time had passed due the weirdness of time in the warp, and the cult of the Emperor had finally become the official state religion:
"Moriana spoke on. Whole worlds had been reshaped, their continents given over to graveyards and necropolises, mourning not the slain on either side of our nearly forgotten war but the more recent dead of the last several hundred years: the innocent martyrs of the God-Emperor’s faithful flock.
The God-Emperor.
The God-Emperor.
Language cannot convey the effect those words had on me. I will do all I can to explain it, knowing that every explanation is wrong, for no wordcraft can truly shape an impression of what I felt the first time I heard that title.
‘The God-Emperor,’ Moriana said again, when Amurael asked her to repeat herself. He had stopped as if struck, his thoughts running so acidly rancid that I felt them pressing against my senses.
Telemachon had been exultant, roaring his laughter to the sky, so gripped by euphoric revelation that I thought his twin hearts might seize. If you have ever walked an asylum’s halls, you know that laughter. It is something beyond mirth, beyond elation. It is a release, a dam that breaks in the back of the mind to let madness pour forth, preventing the brain from drowning in poison.
The God-Emperor. I tried to repeat Moriana’s words but my mouth refused to give them shape. I was laughing myself.
Telemachon could barely breathe. The laughter sawed in and out of his faceplate’s vocaliser, wheezing and wet, hacking as if he’d ruptured something in his throat. Amurael stood dumb, trying to process what he had heard. Trying and failing.
Yet Moriana was far from finished. She spoke on, telling us of the Cult of the Emperor Saviour emerging from the disorder of the rebellion’s aftermath. Uprisings of this cult were commonplace on countless worlds, subsuming whole systems in this tide of new belief. The Emperor, revered as the source of the Astronomican, allowed travel between humanity’s scattered worlds. The Emperor, Master of Mankind, Bane of Aliens, the one true deity.
A god.
They believed the Emperor was a god.
I knew how and why this had happened, even before she said another word. It happened as it always happens, as any scholar of their own species’ history can tell you: it happened because the helpless masses were fearful, and because the powerful wanted unchallenged control. Every religion rises for the same reasons - the lower tiers of a society crave answers and comfort, needing rewards in an afterlife to justify the harshness and grimness of their lives. And to prevent uprisings in search of better existences, their rulers institute a creed that keeps the masses obedient and compliant.
Meekness, obedience, submission… These become virtues that the oppressed must embody in pursuit of a greater good or a later reward.
To stand against the prevailing belief becomes not just philosophy but heresy. Heresy worthy of execution. And so control is maintained by the strong over the weak.
‘The God-Emperor,’ I finally managed to say. There have been many times in my life since then that I have cursed that title or cringed at hearing it cried by His deluded followers. But that day, damn me for my naïvety, I was laughing with Telemachon. A cruel, spurned mirth, not the amusement of the victor but the bleak joy of the beaten. That laughter was a purging, like shedding an uncomfortable sheath of skin.
‘Much of the Imperium already adheres to the word of the sect as gospel,’ Moriana continued. ‘The Temple of the Emperor Saviour has a far wider reach and deeper roots than the petty cults that flowered during your rebellion. The Lectitio Divinitatus was a child’s bedtime candle compared to the sunlight of the beliefs now gripping the Imperium.’
All these thousands of years later, deep in what scholars name the Dark Millennium, the Ecclesiarchy grips the whole Imperium in an inviolate hold. Moriana spoke of its rise as an inexorable ascension, only a handful of centuries before its formal, final adoption as the Imperial Creed, backbone of the Adeptus Ministorum, state religion of the Imperium of Man.
And all of it, all of it, founded from the very beliefs that the Emperor had sought to destroy.
Just as the Emperor had been betrayed by His sons, so too had the fool been betrayed by His own empire. Blind and rudderless without its monarch to guide it, the Imperium was devolving into superstitions and half-truths. No wonder we were already close to being myths.
‘The Word Bearers won.’ Telemachon was on his hands and knees in the dust, blood trickling from his unmoving silver mouth. He laughed and heaved and vomited and laughed, speaking between dragged breaths and violent convulsions. ‘The Word Bearers won. They eat dirt and drink shame. They chant prayers to the unwanted truth through bloodied lips. They lost everything. And yet they still won.’"
All we wanted was to spare as many lives as possible. All we wanted was to make our people safe. All we wanted was to make our fathers proud. We had no choice. For as our father says, "this is how the Night Lords make war"....so now, in utter despair and rage, we say, LET THE GALAXY BURN. AVE DOMINUS NOX.
Nothing has changed,nothing ever could
Iron Warrior: …you ok?”
Night Lord: yeah, yeah just had a few too many beers
Iron Warriors: how? We have organs to prevent that being a thing
Night Lord: it was a looot of beer
To be fair im pretty sure perturabo and angron didnt care much for their legions either.
lorgar: hey Erebus....
don't forget mortarion
Angron littarly was giving his sons impossible missions like take a whole word in one day and id they wuld fail he wuld force them to kill one of ther brothers
(Cuts to Angron pummelling the nearest world eater captain to death with his bare fists)
@@conni4518 i heard that Mortarion sold his own soul to nurgle to save his son's
Andrew Wincott is the best 8th Legion Narrator in my opinion. He is my favorite narrator for warhammer beside Josh Reynolds’s.
And of course The legen Aaron Dembski-Bowden’s writing is legendary.
Wincott is a god VA. Love him so much.
"How many times must we skin you before you learn? Let's COUNT THEM! Ah AH Ah!"
Xarl: Talos?….you uh doing alright?
Talos: Yeah why?
Xarl: Y’know…that woman …that got shot running towards you?
Talos: What about it?😐
Xarl: Talos!, that was your mother!
Talos: huh? I didn’t realize that 🫤
(Inside xarls head): that’s f’d up even for you😕
worst part is he did know (at least I felt it was implied he did know)
When a space marine is crying it hits extra hard
People in the comments pointing out that other primarchs hated their legions, seemingly without considering the possibility that the author knows this. Talos may just be being a myopic sadman again, as is his firmly established way.
Such an awesome voice actor. Wish he had narrated more warhammer novels
I love how no Night Lord troops were deployed in Istvan III because Konrad though that if he had to cleanse his legion, he would have killed them all
thats not what he said or thought. what he said was "I wouldn't even know where to begin"
We were the ones who sought out Redemption and justice...but yet we are only the punchline of some cruel joke, the last laugh of a dark comedy forgotten. The final blade in the face of truth of violence and order....
Avoid what is strong, Attack what is weak.
-Sun Tzu.
Noo dont cry night lord
Void Stalker was a great book. Talos did Curze proud.
You should do more of this,it's great
Damn the entire legion and their primark truly need that hug
That‘s the most emotional thin i‘ve seen today
This gives me motivation to play my Night Lords army
DO YOU HEAR ME PRINCE OF COWARDS?!
Meanwhile World eaters getting chopped up by angron for trying to start a convo: this is fine
Failure does not equate to the end. There is always a choice. There is always time to be better. Do not give up. Do not let your failure conquer your goal. It is part of completing your goal. You have not failed. You have learned, and will keep learning. Becoming better each and every day you can.
I want to do 100 pushups and cast judgement apon my enemy’s
Those guys rip the skin off people still alive for fun. They can cry me a river.
Only primarch to hate his legion?
Very openly and very actively due to all the problematic people that joined it and, as he saw correctly, corrupted it.
@@aleksander10101 as they were from his home world.
A place filled with criminals.
And those said criminals got the chance to be space marines.
We look up to space marines as saviours.
But nightlords? They taint the title of space marine. Their not.
They take advantage of the perks of being a space marine.
Extra strength, a filtering system to prevent them being poisoned. And more.
No wonder he hated them.
At least ANGRON and perty gave a shit enough to kill them, Kurze didn’t even kill his men outright he really could care less about them
From his perspective he probably thinks so
xarl: calm down talos were your friends
talos:
Sevatar the truly hero
I fucking love the detail of the helmet crying around 0:12 sick video
Your Night Lord's meme was the one that inspired me so all credit goes to you.
God I fucking loved this trilogy as an audio book. I don't even like Heretic Astartes, but this crew I felt attached to. Well until the end a bit.
World eaters : first time ?
Night Lords for life bay bay!
0:38 That is not cowardice, that is being smart. Especially as the Night Lords no longer fight as a unified Legion but individual warbands, they cannot just charge enemy positions like the sons of Angron or Russ. And either way, it was never the way of the Night Lords to fight like that. They always struck from the shadows, leaving only flayed bodies and terror in their wake. Fighting only when they possess the advantage is the only reason they still exist, doing otherwise would result in their extinction.
World Eaters still exist
@@hydradominatus world eaters were MENT for close quarters combat and slaughter
ADB should do like a 30k series on these guys and expand their adventures of terror and evil
i always felt bad about the night lords because they are the only traitor legion that had a very valid reason for rebelling.
they did their job, they did terrible acts in the name of conquest, which was what they were good at. yet they watched as other legions were praised and lauded as they were sidelined and ignored for their methods. worlds were wracked with devastation whenever a salamander or ultramarine fleet went through yet they were praised, even as the night lords could have boasted that their methods caused less destruction.
there were no loyalist elements to be purged from the night lords as all of them felt that hate in them of being seen as digusting and wretches for doing their jobs.
Talos Valcoran!
He’s just so cool
"Better to wrong the world, than let the world wrong me."
Love this vibe.❤🦇
holy shit please do the entire speech
I just wanted to chill in the night bro
“We are the sons of the only primarch to hate his legion”
The world eaters: :3
I think it's curzes hate is more like an disgusted anger and not anger anger
I want more of this but of the other legions if you can of course
Andrew Wincott is so damn good
I still remember when this video had only 117 likes. I hope it gets 1000 more likes soon.
the nightlords are based, they were a chaos legion before the legions even knew what a chaos was. AND THEN WHEN THEY WERE OFFERED THE POWERS OF THE CHAOS GODS THEY SAID THAT SHIT IS CRINGE, CHAOS FORCES ARE DANIEL AND THE NIGHTLORDS ARE THE COOLER DANIEL. Legit though all they wanted was to please their daddy, and then they wanted vengeance for the persecution that they received from the other legions. (also Angron hated his sons but he hated them because he considered them to be minions of the man who tore him away from his comrades during the slave rebellion, and so he blamed them for what the emperor did, at least thats how i see it.) (also also angron eventually grew to tolerate his legions because they strived to slaughter his enemies.) (also also also Konrad never grew to tolerate his legion, he always hated them even when they did everything he asked)
So basically anger German noises and keyboard smashing intensifies.
0:40 Last chance to look at me, corpse emperor
*They were not born they were made...*
ave dominus nox
Perturabo hated his legion and started to destroy it a few times and Angron hated his legion because they don't havet the Butcher Nails like his gladiators brothers and sisters.
nightlords are the most relatable legion.
I want VENGEANCE against a galaxy that hates us....
"We run from every battle where we don't possess overwhelming force." Well, yeah, your legion was designed to force surrender by only killing a few people at the top...
I mean angron was killing his sons for not duing impossible tasks and killing liblarians for no reason ( glad that i have the night lords mod for dow)
Talks Valcoran!
Good news is 1 night lord is reuniting the legion
Pain
If someone needs to survive from death became a Digga and Go with da nearest ork boiz ya git 'cauze of thiz da Waaaagh will be with yersel'
Deam never felt more bad for a traitor :/
It hits hard
"I'm sorry dad... I'm sorry for being a piece of shit..."
Jokes on you our father loved us because we are our father
The first legion sends their regards, VIIIth lmao
Chaos lamenters say what?
Ave Dominus Nox...
ADB please make more 😔🙏
... Ave Dominus Nox!
Damn i just realized that i have the same accent as the voice actor
You fail, yet you are still in the game right? You still have a chance to succeed, just ask the 2nd and 11th.
Ave Dominus Nox
BLOOD FOR THE 8TH LEGION!
The biggest mistake GW has made is making heresy era CSM as whiny as they are

Head patts
He HATES us !!!
Where's the beaky art from?
Please make a Video Tribute about the 8 Legion with the music Skillet Monster
Real
What genre of video is this
The only primarch that haye his own legion.
Looks at peter turbo and the whinner angron.
Rise finger.
This is fucking sad
The Night Lords were the real sadbois
Cancion
I never understood the Slavic accent. Night Lords have 0 Slavic influence in them.
You know, except living on a planet with corrupt government, constant crime and the sad state of the environment around.
So, basically if eastern europe was an entire planet.
Just one of those things that caught onto them a long time ago for whatever reason and just stuck because it made them more interesting. Also easy to meme.
I think it is becauce Konrad Curze sounds slavic and he was compared to Vlad the impaler
Their tactics are basically "Vlad Tepes in Space".
The Terran-born Night Lords come from the tribes that inhabited the general vicinity of what we would call the "Eastern Bloc" countries. So, yes, they are Slavic by decent.
Are sad boi traitor Astartes going to be a thing?
They gotta cope and seethe about being losers lol
@@justiceforjoggers2897 call them losers but they did a shit ton of winning during the heresy. If you think the imperium won during the heresy you haven’t payed enough attention. There’s a reason why the traitors call the Horus heresy “the long war” because to them the war isn’t over.
Im not the biggest fan of the Night Lords, and to me they’re edgy for the sake of edgy just like the ravens, but Man, they all had such sucky lives.
Failed by everyone in their lives.
The nightlords in concept are so cool. Too bad their huge losers and unlikable assholes. Can we just get 1 nightlords that like.....man........I'm gonna go be useful and help the imperium like konrads mission was. I wish the Terran born got more lore. Edit: I have gained a new appreciation for the nightlorda and their almost kinship with the bloodangels after the new majorkill video.
Read the night lords trilogy, they may not be good guys but they are likable
The night lords are great! Death to the false god!
One loyal night lord became a founding gray knight
@@Maimkillburn69 most of the night lords, even the traitor ones, are incorruptible. Or simply aren’t corrupted yet.
@@Maimkillburn69 ok, thats pretty epic.
What night lords novel is this from?
Not sure about the specific book but its in the Nightlords omnibus. One of the best reads in a while.
"We are the only legion hated by our primarch"
Angron, mortarion, and perturabo: ...
Mortatarion loved them
I really hate this type of voice that doesnt rely on depth or range and just sounds like the speaker is gargling bubblewrap. Reminds me of the voice that black guys do to try and seduce women
🤣 ...gargling bubble wrap!
What the fuck are you saying
lmfao what a top chad comment 😂
Cope harder lol
The night lords are the best traitor legion. Your loved in my eyes🦇❤️
What he says after:
I will cast a shadow across this world !
I will burn every Man
Women and child
So the smoke from the funeral piles eclipses the sun !
With the dust that remains , I will take the echo of damnation, and rain the ashes of twenty million mortals down to the emperor’s palace !
Then ! They will remember us.
Then ! They will remember the legion they once FEARED !!
*funeral pyres 😂
More edgelords and Daddy Issues than two Horus' put together.
