if i shut the book now i can pretend they just had a big family reunion on nikaea

"His horned breastplate was thrusting and magnificent (...)" WELL OKAY. SURE.

man they got the WORST primarch combo for this compliance imaginable. yeah we got the warrior-poet who likes to roleplay as a barbarian king and actively makes everyone's life harder when he's around, a guy who would be happier in a 2000s evangelical church and the Personification Of Scientific Hubris. surely nothing will go wrong.

chapter 12 and leman and magnus have FINALLY interacted w each other

i can feel the tension building...

the ohthere wyrdmake/ahriman scenes are kinda wild tbh... why is he saying shit like that. "his sheer vitality was incredible" "you are star-cunning" I KNOW WHAT YOU ARE

magnus i cannot keep defending you if ur gonna act like this

'(...) Magnus remembered his conception and growth, recalling with perfect clarity the bond that existed between him and his father. (...) As a mother might talk to the unborn babe in her womb, so did the Emperor speak with Magnus.' < WH writers not beating the womb envy allegations

the thousand sons conducting unethical research studies? color me SHOCKED and APPALLED
