    Angrons tale is Greek tragedy in it's purest form. The guy never had a chance. You can fault him for what he does and is now but not for the circumstances that made him that way. He should have died with his Gladiators.

      ​@@XSilver_WaterX Well he's not the direct result of their consciousness. Aside from maybe Slaanesh they were around before him. Also the Emperor is not responsible for the nails in Angrons head. He designed Angron to be empathetic. His mistake was not saving Angron's gladiators, and possibly not killing Angron outright.

      He doesn't harm them because inherently he is not a bad person. He genuinely hates his "sons" for obvious reasons. But that doesn't make him bad. He was literally forced into becoming their primarch. Graped into that position, as he stated. He just wants to be left alone, and his chapter just doesn't get the hint ​@siamihari8717

    What makes the World Eaters and Angron so tragic is that for all their proclamations of rage they are not really enraged. They are terrified. They run from the nails, they run from the pain. They turn to anger because it's the only way to avoid more suffering. They will never know true anger, only the terrified desperation of avoidance.

      My theory is that he still had his empathy powers and thats why he was messed up.
      He like the other primarchs are basically psykers with varying degrees of power.
      The nails do not react well to psychic power being achieve near them.
      The world eaters hated and slaughtered their psyker brothers feeling no issue in doing so because the nails egged it on.
      Angron has it the worst and he could very well be the reason why his sons got worse after they got the nails.
      Its like a twisted feedback loop were his empathy powers cause him pain he may well be subconsciously be blasting the effects onto his sons.
      Khorne really picked well.

    The writing is top notch and I love how it goes into Angrons motivation. How every time he even considers an emphatic response he gets pain.
    How would he have given word to what he truly wants and feels? If it was not filtered via the nails.
    Kharn, are you deaf and blind to my words and deeds? Do you not grasp it's your willingness to submit to a tyrant like myself that causes this divide.
    How it burdens me to know that it is of me not the nails that you would gladly enslave yourself to try and reach the heart of a monster.
    When I force you and your brothers over and over again into a situation where you can clearly see my actions have no merit. That it is driven solely by violence.
    How I myself was driven to kill for the entertainment of others. What drove me to finally rise up against the tyrants for freedom was the damned nails.
    That without these nails I would be like you. A dog that would gladly kill the innocent to please its master. That no matter how kicked or burned.
    Would always whimper and return to his master and beg for his approval. Even as it gets kicked away again. Hoping for love.
    That the day that brought me so much joy and happiness even in the face of death was thanks to these nails.
    These nails are merely a second collar placed on me. A collar that eroded the first. That drowned out the need to always search for hope and reason.
    Hope gives no rest no end. Hope will keep you in chains. Death is the only answer the nails allow me to reach. How I wish you slaves made in my image.
    Would finally free this slave. That we all may be free of all masters. That you can prove to your miserable father that he is not doomed to be a slave.
    That inside me, there is a free man, not guided by the nails, a man that would overthrow all tyrants. A man that would die a Liberator...

    This is genuinely heartbreaking. I don't think I ever really understood Angron until now.
    He was a tortured man who ached for camaraderie as an escape from his suffering but all he was granted was the mindless glorification granted to him by his legion. That glorification only deepened his isolation and guaranteed his immersion in inescapable suffering.
    He could bear the suffering of the nails but he couldn't bear the loneliness of being revered as a god by his "sons".

    This was an excellent tale of the red angel. I only think of him raging and angry at the universe. But this reminded me of the many facets of anger. The seething, self loathing, frustration, hostility and even fear. The narrator, a Vox in the Void, takes the work of Stephen Duxbury and really brings it into reality. He does such an amazing job really conveying the emotion and bringing that grim dark feeling to everyone's voice and atmosphere. You can hear each inflection of subtle emotion as the primarch speaks. The frustration in Angron as he battles his own emotions as palpable. The hint of sadness and undying loyalty in Kharn's voice as he opens up to his father. The sounds of Epidemic really make me feel like I am there, amplifying emotions and situations to levels that keep my brain attached to the story. Thanks to all of you who worked on this. It was a pleasure to listen to.

    Anrgon might be my favorite Primarch, simply because his betrayal might be the most justified.
    He feels nothing but pain, all day, everyday, and infinite ache of pain that ranges from a full ache to a blazing pain that’s only ever slated by murder. Even in sleep he gets not respite from the pain, bombarded with the memories of the men and women he couldn’t save.
    I often of could have been If the emperor had been more compassionate that day, if he had fought with his son instead of stealing him away and letting his warriors die, how different the lord of the red sands could have been.

    If any being truly cements that the Emperor was not divine, that he was either cruel or a fool, it is Angron. A Primarch - a *son* - left broken, an entire Legion of Space Marines sacrificed to pointless mutilation, to butchery, to soul-crushing degredation... and why? Because it was more expedient? Because the Emperor didn't care? Because the Emperor was too inhuman to look on this scarred, maimed, self-loathing wretch and feel even an inkling of compassion? Basilio Fo was right all along.

      I highly doubt it, the Emps already anticipated a civil war and expected some Primarchs to turn against him.

    Angron truly was the weakest and most human of the Primarchs, because unlike all his brothers he was made a slave by mortal men, a demigod bound in chains and made to slaughter for their enjoyment. A fate he never managed to escape, only merely passing from one master's hand to the next, from some long forgotten planetary lord, to fickle hope, then the Emperor, and finally onto Khorne.

    This was absolutely incredible. Of all the Traitor Primarchs, I've always felt the most sympathy for Angron. While some were just motivated by sheer hubris (Horus, Magnus, Lorgar), others incorrigible dicks (Perty, Mortarion, Konrad), and a few just utter dirtbags (Fulgrim), Angron is the only one who truly was misused and done dirty. Everything from the manner of his "rescue" to the Emperor refusing to try and find some way to heal him, Angron truly had an axe to grind (pun intended). Angron will always be one of the few genuine failures of the Emperor and one the Imperium will continue to pay dearly for.

    • @ianward8658
      @ianward8658 Год назад +4

      I wouldn’t lump magnus into hubris, though he definitely had it. He fell because he had nowhere to turn to. Fulcrum was more hubristic. The emperor did try to heal him, he even brought in Arkham Land to help. He couldn’t take them out without killing him. If I remember correctly the quote was “a broken tool is better than no tool at all”. He knew what he was doing.
