Cowards

One last part, the denouement, and then it's back to the main three. Hope you all are enjoying this ride through the Grimmdarkiest of Grimmdark settings, -cifer style!

*Looks at the word count of the Worm story* Lee is stubborn enough that the if isn't in question, the when on the other hand...

Steven Stiring

You'd be correct if not for 3 reasons. 1. Rogue Trader. 2. Writ signed by Big E himself. 3. Immediately followed that up by making a demon beg for its life before killing it utterly, an action which is the domain of Saints.

So my understanding is that 40K is fanatically religious. The word of the priests is law. How many people are foaming at the mouth at Lee for rewording doctrine? I mean after 10 thousand years of all but outlawing independent thought has to mean they wanted the mystique. After Lee reframed them to powerful cowards that throw temper tantrums there has to be a not insignificant percentage of the ship that wants to burn him at the stake.

Source on the one symbol thing? Because that's important if true, but I couldn't find anything that said that (and there's absolute tons that you destroy in Darktide).

Holy shit, this is amazing, now I really want to get a P.O.V from a sister of battle on that whole speech.

Ship wide every guardsman, tech priest and menial just witnessed the true death of daemons. Their faith is ironclad now. As far as theyre concerned they just got front row seats to a Saint stretching their legs and turbo fuckin chaos in not the fun way. Especially since all daemons are miniscule parts of the gods, that's permanent dmg to nurgle however small

Oh boy, I think that last part was a mistake on lee's part. ANY public knowledge of the big 4 reality tumors has historically been an awful idea. Seeing as they are memetic infohazzards. As much as one symbol of khorneflakes in a family house who didnt even know anything about what it meant was enough to damn a planet to a full blown deamon invasion after all.

Edits but your Nug-Nug’s -> you're kidding, your daemons -> you're

Meudon

Oof, poor amelia got got. On the other hand, her ship is clean and a daemon got lmao'd. Yeah, "Well, shit" is the right reaction ahahahahaha

Wonderful explanation of the Four Cowards. The only thing that put me off is him saying 'because chaos' so many times. It's true each time but saying over and over makes it lose impact and meaning.

Tony Martin

Well this easily takes top spot over anything else you’ve put out in a whole, honestly, imo

Also really like your take on the big 4. Honestly, yours and Bricky's (Youtube) take are my favorite ones.

Queen is the perfect band to purge Chaos filth too xD I love it

I kinda feel bad for the Rogue Trader. Lee just dumped a huge headache into her lap where the Administratum and Ecclesiarchy don't like the peasants knowing about chaos.

As is always the case with our literary drug dealer

Tyric Gaias

It's only in the files. Next chapter will reveal he was fishing for a title, and he has no idea who this 'Purifier' is, but he's willing to run with it.

PublicLee Speaking

Wait I don't remember if you already answer this or not do people actually remember him or is it only in the files?

Yuval

I'm absolutely fucking loving this story. If and when you finally finish one of the other main three I hope this takes their place.

The storybook gigolo

Oh nooooo! It's going to be over soon?
