Literally. They don't want to take responsibility for their choices, they want to blame someone else, their victims for their own lack of empathy, hatred and cruelty. They refuse to self reflect because they can't possibly be wrong, they are ""righteous"" they are serving a greater ""evil"". (Aka people who don't want to live according to their whims)

@@lolbit1232my favourite angron quote, perhaps my favourite 40k quote, is angron talking about what he'd do if he didn't have the Nails in his head "perhaps I might even ascend the steps of our father's palace and take the slaving bastard's head". I'd love to see that story.
@@lolbit1232 yeah but in a what if alternative, if the imperium did agreed to leave all these worlds with friendly humans and aliens alone wouldn't the forces of Chaos and its growing influence go after them instead because easy corruptible prey? I mean say what you want about how horrible the imperium's descision making in handling those wanting to be left alone but I don't think Chaos will do the same for them knowing they will face them one day.
Read the sad tale of Traynor's rest, a world where the imperial agent sent there was 'disgusted' by seeing humans and a reptile-like species (whoms name is tragically lost) doing something so vulgar to her "imperial sensibilities"... living in peaceful coexistence. This imperial, lacking a standard army to eradicate the reptile-like species living alongside their human neighbors literally starts spreading racist conspiracies, fostering mistrust and fear amongst the humans over the course of decades (that she knew was false) until she had amassed a following large enough to kick of a planet-wide genocide of the aliens and killed or enslaved any humans who resisted or didn't go along with the atrocities (didn't participate) or stood in defense of the so called 'xenos'. After she was done with her horrid ""crusade"" she left the planet, leaving the local economy and industry in ruins and the world's environments scared evermore that even after millennium it still hasn't and likely will never recover from. The local humans that remained came to venerate this imperial agent and she was canonized as a minor saint by the ecciesiarchy. (Imperium church) Basically a horrible person, got away with insighting violence and terrorism and leading a genocide.
Even if the planet's leaders had accepted Imperial compliance through diplomacy, the Luna Wolves would have known of Necron presence, which is An-Nakhirmun through detecting her ship and/or hearing stories of a xeno robot woman being their local neighbor for a long time. Which the sons of Horus Lupercal would see the planet being under xeno thrall all along and the have it "cleansed".
@@Ajvt-ux4ec Honestly, I think too many people forget that 30k was still evil as shit. Sanguinius, my beloved hawk boy, was in fact a terrible genocider.
That was a civilization of humans and xenos united - much like a Star Trek Federation. The humans in it refused to betray their xenos allies and fought with them against the Imperium. "All we wanted was to be left alone."
@@idontlikerome2744 Yes, they were essentially in a nomadic fleet of space ships that would travel around, extracting fuel and minerals from 'local' (what was in range of their craft) rock belts or star clusters. I believe they also would occasionally trade with any nearby other groups or worlds too. (Which also may have been a mixture of several species including other humans, though I'm not sure)

Genuinely some of the most well-written serious fan works for 40K that explore the two sides of two factions that we don’t usually see: The rare emotional Necron, and the cold, bloody reality that was the Great Crusade and what is the Imperium of Man. So glad peeps like you are narrating it and getting it out there!
@@headwreak1768 Basically they 100% believe they are in the right and anyone that thinks otherwise is delusional or mind controled (by xenos or demons, it doesn't matter) because why have reasonable disagreements when you can *ad homnin/dismiss* or shoot your opposition.
I might be mis remembering, but wasn't Horus actually pretty reasonable before everything went south? I vaguely remember him being diplomatic with Xenos on a fairly regular basis to avoid fighting.
I was about to think "man the Deathwatch gonna show up" but then I realized that this must take place during the Great Crusade to re-unite the Imperium's million+ worlds.... and the Deathwatch hasn't been created yet and won't for thousands of years.
I know Necrons are not supposed to feel emotions, but this is one instances where they definitely will remember this and come back stronger than before, especially to hunt down this particular chapter
They feel emotions it's they have a very loose grasp of the presence and short term connection. Most beings are like goldfish to the Necrons. When Necrons decided to take a nap a whole generation of humans passed by. When a goldfish dies most will care a little bit but understand that they have a short life and it is what it is. We care even less for flies and other bugs that only live a few days.
This was during The Great Crusade going by the armor the Lunar Wolves wear. And considering it’s the Lunar Wolves who are canonically considered to be the greatest Legion of Astartes in terms of power of assault. And since this is the Great Crusade,their Necron Dynasty would probably not last long once news reached the rest of the Imperium that stuff like the Necrons existed.
@@Funniblockman You missed the part where 3 company worth of spacemarines were almost wiped out by a few necrons. Beside, necron are canonincally stronger due to their tech making power armors useless against them and that they are able to simply repair themselves. They would get massacred if a dynasty fell on them (unless a primach, or golden dad comes but those are powerhouses on their owns and i dont know how a fight would end)
I was hoping An-Nakhirmun would bring forth the full power of her Necron warship and send her dormant armies out to go for a walk. To ask if the Luna Wolves' health plans were apparently great.
An-Nakhirmun already deployed her Canoptek constructs to great effect but they're outnumbered and outgunned, their numbers whittling down. The only Necron soldier she has is her own beloved mother, there's no armies of Warforms or Ctan Shards to send. The only things she has in reserve are her ship and her personal power. Necron ships are powerful, but it'd be outnumbered against the orbiting Astartes fleet, and this being 30K they'd have way more Macro Cannons and Torpedoes than before the Imperial splits and downsizing. A Cryptek such as herself is powerful, but won't last long alone against this many Space Marines. I think the best she can do is gather survivors to her ship and phase out using the Inertialess Drive
The second I saw the Luna Wolves knew it was over, they were the best legion before the heresy which meant out of everyone they truly were the most heartless.
An'Akramun: "Oh you're a warrior alright... just not a _super_ one." Loken: "Oh yeah? What's the difference?" An'Akramun: *"PRESENTATION!"* _ship rises out of the park, deploying millions of Necron warriors_
@@SolusArmatura And it turns out most of the Luna Wolves were driven out instead, forced to flee for their flees after experiencing the wrath of the Necrons.
@@TheWarmachine375 There's absolutely no way the Luna Wolves Legion would fleet from these Necrons. Especially with all the named characters around. Especially Loken. 😂
Loken - "sure let's me show my presentation father come" Many ships land with many Titans with one gaint man named Horus Let's the seas boil let's the stars falls Let's Galaxy burnnnnnn
The problem is that the Astartes are their best selling units, and if they showed the Astartes for what they are to their victims, several of which WERE nonhostile and even friendly, it would make the mission No Russian in Modern Warfare 2 look tame by comparison. It would tarnish their image to morally decent people, and thus hurt sales, and GeeDubs could never have that.
@ but that means that they could also start to sell some of their other units, maybe even bring back some like the blood pact and market them as being the good guys sometimes.
There are actually a good few times they’ve shown it in the books, a lot of them have instances of the Astartes talking about the ‘pacification’ of worlds like it was a natural phenomenon to slaughter entire worlds, even in the first book of the Horus heresy the Luna Wolves are joking about Horus killing someone.
I think the messed up part is that (from what I got) he didn’t find them in the end and moved on despite hearing the child’s crying. The only reason they all survived is because A ‘noble’ Astartes heard a innocent in need and decided not to help or investigate.
@@shadowlord1418This is a Lunar Wolf who stayed loyal during the Heresy, it is easy (for most people) to consider him ‘noble’ and ‘honorable’ when the comparison is with the Black Legion.
When all seemed lost, vast swaths of the humans and necrons disappeared into multiple portals. Only leaving the corrupt lords behind. When interrogated on how this happened, only one name came from their lips. Trazyn.
I liked part one but this it's also pretty damn good. I'm looking forward to seeing how the story continues. It can only end in horror in this universe, unfortunately. One can only say that it was lucky that they were not Night Lords
If this was closer to Heresy Horus, he might've heard the people out and gave the humans of the world more of a chance. Heck, he might jave even had a meeting with the Necron to see what her deal was given shes beenn so peaceful.
I don't think you understand what space marines do... An alien being peaceful or helpful towards humans calls for even more destruction, as knowledge of such a possibility does much worse in the imperium's eye, than destroy a trillion lives - it shows the imperial narrative to be a lie
Holy Throne of Terra, they did NOT just do our boy Garviel Loken dirty like that! 😤 (Although, it is quite an interesting move to use an established heroic character in such an antagonistic role. Props to the author for trying something different! 👍)
Bit off topic but this channel is the reason I finally got interested in 40k. First with the Flower and the Krieger and later on with the first video you did of this story which in return inspired me to start drawing again, this time with Necrons. In the future I kinda want to try my luck with making something similar but unique to this story and I honestly have you and your content to thank for indirectly rekindling a old hobby I enjoy.
Not off topic at all, cheers for letting me know! It is always amazing to hear that I somehow inspire people. Feel free to share a link to your work, I'd love to see it!
@@techpriest6962 Remember that time the Imperium executed a entire world (or whom was left after the invasion) of Tau civilians, which included children by throwing them into an active volcano.
I know that the reason why Eldari and Necrons see humanity as bunch of saveges is mostly becouse they are arogant and see themselfs better then other races but at the same time Imperium makes it very easy to think of human as just pink orks.
@@wiktormatuszcyk8925 It's why orks like fighting humans so much, they are basically weaker but no less blood thirsty mini orks. It is also why they've grown stronger too, all that fighting the humans give them only steadily increasing their power. The Imperium has made the orks more dangerous over the millennium because war fuels ork growth.
there is a part 2? WE HAVE A PART 2?! YAY! wait, noooooo. save the little ones, the bad white wolves are here to take them away from the imortal one's grace!
Yeah, the Heresy was pure karmic retribution if you ask me. All the mistakes, flaws and arrogan assumptions of the emperor biting him hard on the arse and dooming his vision forever, most deserved for everything he did during the Great Crusade.
This little story captures the reality of the Great Crusade so well. When reading warhammer books from the perspective of the Imperiem it’s easy to forget the reality of what’s being presented. Hundreds of thousands of civilization with histories just as long and rich as ours in the real world ground to dust. Uncountable species wiped out, uncountable human cultures wiped out, uncountable tragedies. Genocide on a galactic scale, both on populations and on culture. The idea of this planet with its own unique culture and identity ending up as just another imperial hive world is oddly creepy. The friendly necron being remembered as “the evil Xenia tyrants” that the imperium “freed” them from. Its all so grimdark.
More like they see nothing evil in what they're doing. Heck they feel righteous doing it, even if they momentarily sigh about such bitter business they ultimately see nothing to change, nothing to reflect on, only fulfilling a vision, built on pilles of corpses.
I know the possibility of things being different if it was the ultramarines or the salamanders discovering the planet might be low because the presence of the necron but still I would like to believe that it wouldn't have been as violent because of either Gillman's ability to always figure things out diplomatically or Vulcan incredible understanding in kindness
Except if the world still refuses to join or only wants an alliance (not vassalage or incorporation) then no...Gill-man and Vulkan absolutely would do the same thing as the Luna Wolves because they aren't taking "no thanks" for an answer, they don't respect sovereignty nor consent. They want submission, nothing else fits into the Emperor's vision. Your nicest Primarchs and Space marines have and will murder civilians, specifically those that don't bend the knee to the Imperium or apparently having the audacity to willingly associate with different species that doesn't involve slavery or domination of said aliens.
People forget with the memes about Vulkan being cuddly, that he did in fact burn an eldar child alive 😬. I have my doubts that it would go well for this planet even if the more ”diplomatic“ Primarchs showed up
@cherryrook8684 oh yeah it's still probably wouldn't go well regardless of who would find them but at least if it was one of the more reasonable ones it would have been at least less as bad
Imagine that...the Imperium as antagonists/villains. Something that's not hard to do at all but somehow many forget or rather don't want to be confronted with this ugly side of things. Like even the Space Wolves butchered civilians and the Salamanders have burnt entire worlds worth of souls to ash. I think what people do forget when downplaying these marine chapters (or legions at the time) is that sure they'd probably won't kill civilians...as long as they're ""LOYAL"" (subservient) civilians, aka those who's worlds have already bent the knee to the Emperor's iron, gold plated boot. For anyone else that doesn't or won't bow before them or just so happen to be caught up in the purging and burning they get no mercy, only violent death and suffering.
@shadowlord1418 Not really. And even if you're human, if you are a human that doesn't fit their vision for humans then you are killed or enslaved (more literally). If you do not bow to them, you are killed or enslaved. If you freely associate with other species you are killed or enslaved. If you disagree with their vision for humans you are killed or enslaved. If you resist you are... killed or enslaved. They are only the 'best' option because they will not allow other options to exist, It is like an abusive relationship where the abuser cuts their victim of from anyone else as alternatives other than them for 'support'. *"Only I can save you, because no one else loves you enough".* (Because they're keeping them, friends, family, loved ones who actually care from you)
@navilluscire2567 sorry to tell you anyone who associates with xenos dies because the xenos want to kill you. Yes even the tau sterilize humans aka genocide. The reason the Imperium is so brutal is because the galaxy is actively hostile
Ankrahmun had to be careful. She had gotten involved. Sloppy. And she had paid the price. The ship would be at risk. But she had to take the chance. The brute seemed to not care at the crying of the child, and soon enough was distracted by an explosion to the west. It seem while they were distracted, some of the officials had gotten their hands on some powerful explosive. With nothing more than a second look, the soldier left. Ankrahmun knew this city. Carefully choosing the right path, the family finally found the entrance to her ship. The preparations were made, but an exit would not be easy. Ankrahmun readied the engines, and the ship tore free of the earth. It pointed upward, and climbed. Sensors in the ship reported that they had been spotted, and soon a massive shell flew by. But the ship was small, at least compared to the behemoth that was the legions flagship. Shell after shell came, but soon enough, one shell struck true, and the ship was gone. But there was no debris, and nary a flicker of flame. But it was disregarded. One less xenos to worry about. In orbit around Solomance, a ship tore into reals pace. Trazyn hailed it, and found that it was an acquaintance of his. He would have to thank her for the Enslaver. And it seemed that more than just words would suffice. Lokien pried his eyes open. The last thing he could remember was his father. And then betrayal. Now, all he could know, and see, was flame. Lift the gun. Fire. Swing the sword. See. See him. Abbadon. He was on a planet. Not terra. Cadia. Lift the gun. Fire. Not for the Emperor. Not for man. For order. For peace. Lift the gun, to never be a soldier again.
@Myomer104 I know that comic about necron girl who fell in love with the Rogue Trader, but it is still not canon and makes no sense to me for few reasons: 1. The Necrons were not awake at this time 2. Luna Wolves are presented as the bad guys, at that time they were the best of the best so they couldn't be bad guys 3. I don't think that RT were able to find awaken tombs so soon.
@@nicolausg7058Everything in Warhammer universe is either canon or not canon depends on your own understanding. Because of the very inconsistent writing from author to author and tons of retcon from time to time. Space marine is not the ideal good guys even if they are the best of the best for war. They are great to fight in combat,but most of them aren't really very caring for the civi and especially any civi on the enemy side. Most of the major dynasty is not awaken at 30k but she is an exile with a lone ship that landed on this planet,from the time that even before the human made the first colony. She is probably not even into the ship since she is exiled. You can learn this in the part 1.
People often forget that the Imperium is more than just a 'byproduct of circumstance' or a 'necessary evil' in the 40k universe, and this fanwork in a way really illustrates things more clearly, (still not pure evil) in an attempt to save Humanity from a terrible future he likely foresaw, the Emperor created that future.
@tarektechmarine8209 Consider the extent of everything the Emperor did in his pursuit of "saving humanity," and whether it was actually necessary, or flawed, because I assure you Chaos wouldn't have been able to spread as far as it did without mankind being reconnected across the stars, while also having an enforced policy of complete ignorance towards any threat which may lurk in the warp, and hence a medium for it to spread and transmit. The truth of the Primarchs, and their legions are so repulsive, outright that even **Basilio Fo,** a mad scientist from the Dark Age found them utterly repulsive because he actually understood what they **were.** Half of the Emperor's transhuman armies, and sons fell to Chaos, his crowned son, whom he spent years raising- was *easily* corrupted - what does that tell you the extent of the Emperor's plans and how blinded he was by his own ambition? The Emperor, through the Imperium, cultivated the **perfect** conditions for Chaos to inevitably spread, and spread it did when he created powerful generals clearly susceptible to its corruption, **without creating any real countermeasures against it when he could have.** Had the Emperor not created the Legiones Astartes, brought about the Primarchs, and went about his "Great Crusade" in the way that he did via galactic genocide for all that defied him - would Chaos be anywhere as powerful as it is in the modern day setting? No.
@@tarektechmarine8209 The Emperor created the circumstances which allowed Chaos to thrive in the modern-day setting to begin with. How necessary *was* his conquest of unification, in all reality? The fact of the matter is, the Emperor is the pinnacle of Humanity, does it not then stand to reason that he represents both its greatness, and its flaws? He could have invented countermeasures to protect the Primarchs, and the Legiones Astartes from corruption, like he inevitably would with the Grey Knight project, but he didn't. He was blinded by his ambition and ideal, when he created the Primarchs, creatures so terrible, that **Basilio Fo,** of all people found them repulsive. He created the ideal champions for Chaos.
It wouldn't surprise me if some necron dynasties Actually liked Their humans Subjects but I also think they would Expand the life Of the humans they care And there are plenty of necron scientists and Trazyn Would give many Genetic Material Just trade With him for it ( And that can be an interesting plot point For story the necron lords wanted The material From these species To expand the life of the ones they care about So they go to war )
In the Warhammer universe, there are no good sides to choose from everybody it’s just to fight for whatever cause they believe in it’s a cruel galaxy in the Warhammer universe
A sad and very enjoyably compelling story, though it must be known that Gaverial's perspective isn't an unreasonable one as far as he knows. And I am happy the author decided to add it, for as carzy and ironically zealous as it sounds. There were many privative human civilizations and worlds that were being actively oppressed, enslaved, and or wiped outed sense the start of "Old Night". And Necron worlds, well the population, as well as al life in general tends to disappear over night because of them. This one might be an exception, but make no mistake for should her old Over Lord want to take this planet then any and all life will very shortly disappear. There might be exceptions to the rule, but as far as we know the Emperor's reason for uniting all of humanity by any means necessary, was chaos. For while they might go by a countless number of names, it almost always was some form of lesser, or greater Chaos entity that was being worshipped on these worlds, and he wanted to try and starve out the Chaos Gods entirely. A plan that seemed to be mostly working, or at least working well enough that the chaos gods themselves went to great lengths to help instigate, and support the Horus lead rebellion while attacking the Webway. The Emperor for all of his many, many, many faults for a supposedly transcended being was effective, and unfortunately didn't want to take any chances. The Imperium of mankind was an over all good until out side interference caused it's near collapse.
I like this take, too many see imperium even in it wraly day as absolutely, when they are just just human lead by hypocrite who want to do best thing for humanity.
No it was not an overall good. Said humans merely were 'traded' from one slave master for another, only these new ones just so happen to share their species...which apparently makes it better, even though there's likely just as little empathy towards these victims of oppression, heck maybe even more so.
@@navilluscire2567it was, why do you think the council of Terra exists, if he was the bad man you think he is why wouldn't he get rid of humans as a whole, why wouldn't he put his sons in that power? I really dislike people new to the lore.
@@tarektechmarine8209 No not really. And not new to the lore by any means, I simply don't agree with this interpretation or outlook. Shocker not everyone has to reach the same conclusions, he very much saw humans as beneath him and as such where to be molded to his liking. Humans are or were his pet project, clay to be shaped no matter the consequences. That council of Terra was the equivalent of a *"rubber stamp"* for his policies and could be overruled at any point, it was far from any allusions to sharing power or intentions of relinquishing any of it.
The spread of human evil is ever boundless within the games of entropy, wraith and carnage. The game played by manipulatiors, murderers and laughing gods!
Why did it have to be the Luna Wolves? Why couldn't Horus have been diplomatic? Necron queen needs to go on an enthusiastic walk teaching the 16th not to mess with her pet humans.
Imagine if the Imperium recognized that this Necron could've been an asset to humanity. In exchange for a defense pact against outside threats and gradual integration into the imperium the necrons would offer unhindered access to their relics and technology. Such knowledge could in turn be used against other xeno threats to this planet's humans like the various Necron warlords.
The Imperium does recognize the necrons' strengths. They just don't care...they want non-negotiable supremacy over the galaxy, and nothing short of that fits into their vision.
Far...far away. Watching and observing, a pharon watches through a holoprojecter screen, as the cryptek and the family attempt to flee the space marines. "My Lord khet'tuki, pharon of tombworld y'urk t'own, do you wish to interfere/engage/speak with these primative bio-engineers?" The pharon turns to face his cyptek, she is staring at the holographic display intently, clearly giddy at the prospect of flexing both the technologies at her disposal, and the idea of one upping her eldest rival. "Perhaps. Perhaps not, would the endeavor even be worth the effort?" "My Lord Khet'tuki, the pride of having smashed/destroyed/utterly annihilated so pitiful an wild a tribe of savages would be greatly beneficial. Alongside that, The overlord Solemence, Trazyn The Infinite, has offered unique access to certain lost trinkets, should we in turn provide him wargear from these primatives." The pharon turned back to the holographic display, waving his hand absently, "If Overlord Trayzn has made such an agreement, we would be fool not to. Deploy whatever you see fit, ruin as little wargear as possible, and please, try to leave the planet intact, if you may."

They likely justified this by saying the Xenos had “mind-shackled” the locals.
Some people just want to be left alone…
Read the sad tale of Traynor's rest, a world where the imperial agent sent there was 'disgusted' by seeing humans and a reptile-like species (whoms name is tragically lost) doing something so vulgar to her "imperial sensibilities"... living in peaceful coexistence. This imperial, lacking a standard army to eradicate the reptile-like species living alongside their human neighbors literally starts spreading racist conspiracies, fostering mistrust and fear amongst the humans over the course of decades (that she knew was false) until she had amassed a following large enough to kick of a planet-wide genocide of the aliens and killed or enslaved any humans who resisted or didn't go along with the atrocities (didn't participate) or stood in defense of the so called 'xenos'. After she was done with her horrid ""crusade"" she left the planet, leaving the local economy and industry in ruins and the world's environments scared evermore that even after millennium it still hasn't and likely will never recover from.
The local humans that remained came to venerate this imperial agent and she was canonized as a minor saint by the ecciesiarchy. (Imperium church)
Basically a horrible person, got away with insighting violence and terrorism and leading a genocide.

Even if the planet's leaders had accepted Imperial compliance through diplomacy, the Luna Wolves would have known of Necron presence, which is An-Nakhirmun through detecting her ship and/or hearing stories of a xeno robot woman being their local neighbor for a long time.

That was a civilization of humans and xenos united - much like a Star Trek Federation. The humans in it refused to betray their xenos allies and fought with them against the Imperium. "All we wanted was to be left alone."

Yes, they were essentially in a nomadic fleet of space ships that would travel around, extracting fuel and minerals from 'local' (what was in range of their craft) rock belts or star clusters.

Indeed!
Previous part mentioned it's set in 850.M30.
I know Necrons are not supposed to feel emotions, but this is one instances where they definitely will remember this and come back stronger than before, especially to hunt down this particular chapter
They feel emotions it's they have a very loose grasp of the presence and short term connection. Most beings are like goldfish to the Necrons. When Necrons decided to take a nap a whole generation of humans passed by. When a goldfish dies most will care a little bit but understand that they have a short life and it is what it is. We care even less for flies and other bugs that only live a few days.
This was during The Great Crusade going by the armor the Lunar Wolves wear. And considering it’s the Lunar Wolves who are canonically considered to be the greatest Legion of Astartes in terms of power of assault.
And since this is the Great Crusade,their Necron Dynasty would probably not last long once news reached the rest of the Imperium that stuff like the Necrons existed.

I am EAGER for her to go on an enthusiastic walk next episode.
A very enthusiastic walk, one might hope for.
@@ChaoticVoicesofAndreas ya when she go for that walk horus show up to walk beside her let the galaxy burn
An-Nakhirmun already deployed her Canoptek constructs to great effect but they're outnumbered and outgunned, their numbers whittling down. The only Necron soldier she has is her own beloved mother, there's no armies of Warforms or Ctan Shards to send. The only things she has in reserve are her ship and her personal power. Necron ships are powerful, but it'd be outnumbered against the orbiting Astartes fleet, and this being 30K they'd have way more Macro Cannons and Torpedoes than before the Imperial splits and downsizing. A Cryptek such as herself is powerful, but won't last long alone against this many Space Marines. I think the best she can do is gather survivors to her ship and phase out using the Inertialess Drive
Not to mention: in the 30th millennium, most of the Necrons were still asleep, so she's basically on her own
The second I saw the Luna Wolves knew it was over, they were the best legion before the heresy which meant out of everyone they truly were the most heartless.
They gave her a purpose. And reminded her that life without living is worthless.
And that some things are worth protecting at any cost.

*"Good ones",* yeah sure I'm sure his many, MANY victims across the galaxy during the 'Great' crusade would agree.
Games workshop needs to show more of the “noble” astarties being not saviors, but oppressors.
True, in a setting where everyone is a villain, you need to actually show it now and then.
Yeah more stories from the perspectives of the imperium's victims please.
The problem is that the Astartes are their best selling units, and if they showed the Astartes for what they are to their victims, several of which WERE nonhostile and even friendly, it would make the mission No Russian in Modern Warfare 2 look tame by comparison. It would tarnish their image to morally decent people, and thus hurt sales, and GeeDubs could never have that.
@ but that means that they could also start to sell some of their other units, maybe even bring back some like the blood pact and market them as being the good guys sometimes.
There are actually a good few times they’ve shown it in the books, a lot of them have instances of the Astartes talking about the ‘pacification’ of worlds like it was a natural phenomenon to slaughter entire worlds, even in the first book of the Horus heresy the Luna Wolves are joking about Horus killing someone.
I think the messed up part is that (from what I got) he didn’t find them in the end and moved on despite hearing the child’s crying.
The only reason they all survived is because A ‘noble’ Astartes heard a innocent in need and decided not to help or investigate.
Exactly!
It's not messed up or shocking when you realize what the Astartes were created for. They are living weapons. Machines of war. Come on now. lol

It's why orks like fighting humans so much, they are basically weaker but no less blood thirsty mini orks.

Of gauss canon...
This little story captures the reality of the Great Crusade so well. When reading warhammer books from the perspective of the Imperiem it’s easy to forget the reality of what’s being presented. Hundreds of thousands of civilization with histories just as long and rich as ours in the real world ground to dust. Uncountable species wiped out, uncountable human cultures wiped out, uncountable tragedies. Genocide on a galactic scale, both on populations and on culture. The idea of this planet with its own unique culture and identity ending up as just another imperial hive world is oddly creepy. The friendly necron being remembered as “the evil Xenia tyrants” that the imperium “freed” them from. Its all so grimdark.
Yeah even with Great Crusade tech, necrons who actually wanted to help would rofl stomp the Lunar wolves, even Loken would be stomped by Gauss weapons
Don't worry! They're just "under new management"!

That's all up to the writer and artist! I'd love to record a third part!
I know the possibility of things being different if it was the ultramarines or the salamanders discovering the planet might be low because the presence of the necron but still I would like to believe that it wouldn't have been as violent because of either Gillman's ability to always figure things out diplomatically or Vulcan incredible understanding in kindness
Except if the world still refuses to join or only wants an alliance (not vassalage or incorporation) then no...Gill-man and Vulkan absolutely would do the same thing as the Luna Wolves because they aren't taking "no thanks" for an answer, they don't respect sovereignty nor consent.
They want submission, nothing else fits into the Emperor's vision. Your nicest Primarchs and Space marines have and will murder civilians, specifically those that don't bend the knee to the Imperium or apparently having the audacity to willingly associate with different species that doesn't involve slavery or domination of said aliens.
People forget with the memes about Vulkan being cuddly, that he did in fact burn an eldar child alive 😬. I have my doubts that it would go well for this planet even if the more ”diplomatic“ Primarchs showed up
@cherryrook8684 oh yeah it's still probably wouldn't go well regardless of who would find them but at least if it was one of the more reasonable ones it would have been at least less as bad
Wow that was depressing

Quite! And I imagine it might just get worse before it gets better
welcome to the grimdark of 40k where depressing outcome are a normality
Hey, that Luna Wolves looks like one of my Kill team, he made it far
Imagine that...the Imperium as antagonists/villains. Something that's not hard to do at all but somehow many forget or rather don't want to be confronted with this ugly side of things.
Like even the Space Wolves butchered civilians and the Salamanders have burnt entire worlds worth of souls to ash. I think what people do forget when downplaying these marine chapters (or legions at the time) is that sure they'd probably won't kill civilians...as long as they're ""LOYAL"" (subservient) civilians, aka those who's worlds have already bent the knee to the Emperor's iron, gold plated boot. For anyone else that doesn't or won't bow before them or just so happen to be caught up in the purging and burning they get no mercy, only violent death and suffering.
they are always the villains as long as your not human. if you are human they are the best option
@shadowlord1418
Not really. And even if you're human, if you are a human that doesn't fit their vision for humans then you are killed or enslaved (more literally). If you do not bow to them, you are killed or enslaved. If you freely associate with other species you are killed or enslaved. If you disagree with their vision for humans you are killed or enslaved. If you resist you are... killed or enslaved.
They are only the 'best' option because they will not allow other options to exist, It is like an abusive relationship where the abuser cuts their victim of from anyone else as alternatives other than them for 'support'.
*"Only I can save you, because no one else loves you enough".* (Because they're keeping them, friends, family, loved ones who actually care from you)
@navilluscire2567 sorry to tell you anyone who associates with xenos dies because the xenos want to kill you. Yes even the tau sterilize humans aka genocide. The reason the Imperium is so brutal is because the galaxy is actively hostile
Ankrahmun had to be careful. She had gotten involved. Sloppy. And she had paid the price. The ship would be at risk. But she had to take the chance. The brute seemed to not care at the crying of the child, and soon enough was distracted by an explosion to the west. It seem while they were distracted, some of the officials had gotten their hands on some powerful explosive. With nothing more than a second look, the soldier left. Ankrahmun knew this city. Carefully choosing the right path, the family finally found the entrance to her ship. The preparations were made, but an exit would not be easy. Ankrahmun readied the engines, and the ship tore free of the earth. It pointed upward, and climbed. Sensors in the ship reported that they had been spotted, and soon a massive shell flew by. But the ship was small, at least compared to the behemoth that was the legions flagship. Shell after shell came, but soon enough, one shell struck true, and the ship was gone. But there was no debris, and nary a flicker of flame. But it was disregarded. One less xenos to worry about.
In orbit around Solomance, a ship tore into reals pace. Trazyn hailed it, and found that it was an acquaintance of his. He would have to thank her for the Enslaver. And it seemed that more than just words would suffice.
Lokien pried his eyes open. The last thing he could remember was his father. And then betrayal. Now, all he could know, and see, was flame. Lift the gun. Fire. Swing the sword. See. See him. Abbadon. He was on a planet. Not terra. Cadia. Lift the gun. Fire. Not for the Emperor. Not for man. For order. For peace. Lift the gun, to never be a soldier again.
No wonder why many left the imperium
these marines would later be known as the black legion.

People often forget that the Imperium is more than just a 'byproduct of circumstance' or a 'necessary evil' in the 40k universe, and this fanwork in a way really illustrates things more clearly, (still not pure evil) in an attempt to save Humanity from a terrible future he likely foresaw, the Emperor created that future.
I don't see how he created it, that was still Horus.
@tarektechmarine8209
Consider the extent of everything the Emperor did in his pursuit of "saving humanity," and whether it was actually necessary, or flawed, because I assure you Chaos wouldn't have been able to spread as far as it did without mankind being reconnected across the stars, while also having an enforced policy of complete ignorance towards any threat which may lurk in the warp, and hence a medium for it to spread and transmit.
The truth of the Primarchs, and their legions are so repulsive, outright that even **Basilio Fo,** a mad scientist from the Dark Age found them utterly repulsive because he actually understood what they **were.**
Half of the Emperor's transhuman armies, and sons fell to Chaos, his crowned son, whom he spent years raising- was *easily* corrupted - what does that tell you the extent of the Emperor's plans and how blinded he was by his own ambition?
The Emperor, through the Imperium, cultivated the **perfect** conditions for Chaos to inevitably spread, and spread it did when he created powerful generals clearly susceptible to its corruption, **without creating any real countermeasures against it when he could have.**
Had the Emperor not created the Legiones Astartes, brought about the Primarchs, and went about his "Great Crusade" in the way that he did via galactic genocide for all that defied him - would Chaos be anywhere as powerful as it is in the modern day setting?
No.
@@tarektechmarine8209
The Emperor created the circumstances which allowed Chaos to thrive in the modern-day setting to begin with. How necessary *was* his conquest of unification, in all reality?
The fact of the matter is, the Emperor is the pinnacle of Humanity, does it not then stand to reason that he represents both its greatness, and its flaws? He could have invented countermeasures to protect the Primarchs, and the Legiones Astartes from corruption, like he inevitably would with the Grey Knight project, but he didn't.
He was blinded by his ambition and ideal, when he created the Primarchs, creatures so terrible, that **Basilio Fo,** of all people found them repulsive. He created the ideal champions for Chaos.
Pain.
Anguish.
Sadness.
This is a small tale, but really well done one.

It wouldn't surprise me if some necron dynasties Actually liked Their humans Subjects but I also think they would Expand the life Of the humans they care
And there are plenty of necron scientists and Trazyn Would give many Genetic Material Just trade With him for it
( And that can be an interesting plot point For story the necron lords wanted The material From these species To expand the life of the ones they care about So they go to war )

TRUTH
Necron activates her army suddenly horus show up
HORUS- LET'S THE SEA BOIL LETS THE STAR FALLS
LETS GALAXY BURNNNN
A sad and very enjoyably compelling story, though it must be known that Gaverial's perspective isn't an unreasonable one as far as he knows. And I am happy the author decided to add it, for as carzy and ironically zealous as it sounds. There were many privative human civilizations and worlds that were being actively oppressed, enslaved, and or wiped outed sense the start of "Old Night". And Necron worlds, well the population, as well as al life in general tends to disappear over night because of them. This one might be an exception, but make no mistake for should her old Over Lord want to take this planet then any and all life will very shortly disappear.
There might be exceptions to the rule, but as far as we know the Emperor's reason for uniting all of humanity by any means necessary, was chaos. For while they might go by a countless number of names, it almost always was some form of lesser, or greater Chaos entity that was being worshipped on these worlds, and he wanted to try and starve out the Chaos Gods entirely. A plan that seemed to be mostly working, or at least working well enough that the chaos gods themselves went to great lengths to help instigate, and support the Horus lead rebellion while attacking the Webway. The Emperor for all of his many, many, many faults for a supposedly transcended being was effective, and unfortunately didn't want to take any chances. The Imperium of mankind was an over all good until out side interference caused it's near collapse.
I like this take, too many see imperium even in it wraly day as absolutely, when they are just just human lead by hypocrite who want to do best thing for humanity.
No it was not an overall good. Said humans merely were 'traded' from one slave master for another, only these new ones just so happen to share their species...which apparently makes it better, even though there's likely just as little empathy towards these victims of oppression, heck maybe even more so.
@@navilluscire2567it was, why do you think the council of Terra exists, if he was the bad man you think he is why wouldn't he get rid of humans as a whole, why wouldn't he put his sons in that power? I really dislike people new to the lore.

No not really. And not new to the lore by any means, I simply don't agree with this interpretation or outlook. Shocker not everyone has to reach the same conclusions, he very much saw humans as beneath him and as such where to be molded to his liking. Humans are or were his pet project, clay to be shaped no matter the consequences. That council of Terra was the equivalent of a *"rubber stamp"* for his policies and could be overruled at any point, it was far from any allusions to sharing power or intentions of relinquishing any of it.
When you spend centuries slaughtering humans, you have nobody to blame but yourself after they refuse to show mercy or a peaceful solution.
I hope to hear more of this story
My heart soared when the writer sent me this part. I hope he writes more.
The spread of human evil is ever boundless within the games of entropy, wraith and carnage. The game played by manipulatiors, murderers and laughing gods!
Splendid narration as always, brother!
Cheers, Boneman!
I was kinda hoping the little girl would grow up to join the Guard or become a Sister of Battle.
With this kind of trauma? Unlikely...
I think she will become a necron high ranked warior, but with slight difference, she is not made of metal
Been listening to The Infinite and the Divine, odd coincidence but fitting to prime me for this and part 1.
I thought the begin might have a chance, then i realized that Luna wolf is a major named character. Sorry Necorn, your odds are not looking good here.
I look forward to more.
There is no such thing as a "happy ending" in the Warhammer franchise.
Unfortunately.
Why did it have to be the Luna Wolves? Why couldn't Horus have been diplomatic? Necron queen needs to go on an enthusiastic walk teaching the 16th not to mess with her pet humans.
Well, that escalated quickly...
Imagine if the Imperium recognized that this Necron could've been an asset to humanity. In exchange for a defense pact against outside threats and gradual integration into the imperium the necrons would offer unhindered access to their relics and technology. Such knowledge could in turn be used against other xeno threats to this planet's humans like the various Necron warlords.
Imagine! The universal war could definitely be won.
The Imperium does recognize the necrons' strengths. They just don't care...they want non-negotiable supremacy over the galaxy, and nothing short of that fits into their vision.
Far...far away. Watching and observing, a pharon watches through a holoprojecter screen, as the cryptek and the family attempt to flee the space marines. "My Lord khet'tuki, pharon of tombworld y'urk t'own, do you wish to interfere/engage/speak with these primative bio-engineers?" The pharon turns to face his cyptek, she is staring at the holographic display intently, clearly giddy at the prospect of flexing both the technologies at her disposal, and the idea of one upping her eldest rival. "Perhaps. Perhaps not, would the endeavor even be worth the effort?" "My Lord Khet'tuki, the pride of having smashed/destroyed/utterly annihilated so pitiful an wild a tribe of savages would be greatly beneficial. Alongside that, The overlord Solemence, Trazyn The Infinite, has offered unique access to certain lost trinkets, should we in turn provide him wargear from these primatives." The pharon turned back to the holographic display, waving his hand absently, "If Overlord Trayzn has made such an agreement, we would be fool not to. Deploy whatever you see fit, ruin as little wargear as possible, and please, try to leave the planet intact, if you may."
I seen this art being uploaded by a member in the Spacebook group "Warhammer Art".
Indeed!
Damn you horus!!!!!
I am a fan to the space marines and they should be saviors of humanity
I don't see any wrong here, only a big guy do a big work for Big E
Not Garvi! You could have picked any of the Luna Wolves and you had to go with one of the Big Bros??? Atleast it’s not Torgaddon. He’d ruin the mood with his zingers. Master of War, Master of Comedy.
Imperial Iterator: Do not feel bad, for we have done a great service to humanity Astartes. When a child is drowning in the deep and they refuse our help, will you listen?
*They say as a world is exterminatus below*
I don't believe this is the excat words but its close enough.
Imperial iterator: I mean why wouldn't anyone want to join our GLORIOUS empire, infact I'm so sure that everyone would that we won't take no thanks for an answer...well an answer we take to mean to buzz of but instead just force-I mean liberate them at gun point because we're such righteous chaps that can do no wrong! (As long as it's for the Emperor..)
Luna Wolves? I'd rather stick with the nice Necron lady, she is not trying to save me from myself, at least.
Guys no! It's a kind Necron. Do you have any idea how *rare* those things are???
Let me guess... The necrons died, they failed to save the family, and the child met an unfortunate fate, the end, there won't be a part 3
I hope there will be!
