CORAX FIRST MEETING WITH THE EMPEROR - Warhammer 40k

hello or a wolf Lord Row here today we are covering one of my favorite topics in the law: a Primark interacting with the Emperor, but even better than that, the written view of the

first

meeting

s between father and son, Corvus

corax

Primark or the

meeting

of the raven guard. the Emperor of Mankind for the

first

time, this will be a good read before we begin the events that we will discuss today from the novel Deliverance from the Horus Heresy, Lost by the Word, and it is a really good read and I really recommend it. one and as always I recommend that you read the novel yourself first as it is the best way to enjoy the law, not only that but we also help support Games Workshop and the great black library that way, because Without them, well, we don't do it.

If I don't have all of this fantastic or discuss it between us, I'll post a link to the book on the black libraries website in the description for those who are interested, but with that being said, let's jump right in. They moved like soldiers. Corvus fought as he watched the former prisoners scattered across Farah Crete a few years ago had been gangsters and philosophers, thieves and agitators, now they were his army, well trained and highly motivated. He knew that much of the credit was his, but at the same time he owed a lot to whoever had done it.

By giving him the gifts he possessed, people would certainly listen to him and he had an innate understanding of fighting to direct an attack or devise a strategy, it was as natural as core versus breathing. Some of the men were pointing up and shouting. A ship appeared beyond the field. barrier, twin trails of plasma glowing against the dark sky as he descended through the barrier high above Corvus saw that it was shaped like a large golden mechanical bird of prey with angled wings that extended back like those of a diving falcon and floated for a while.

At that moment and the plasma drives dimmed as the pilot switched to anti-gravity drives to know the ship was slowly falling, the shuttle stopped in the center of the platform within the inner circle marked there in red paint. Corvus looked through the canopy and was surprised. Seeing that the cabin was empty, he suddenly felt a hint of suspicion towards the seemingly unmanned ship, perhaps it was loaded with explosives, a desperate act of petty revenge on the part of one of the guild masters. Well, it's a small thing, but I love the fact that the Emperor is there.

Not only does he physically pilot the ship, he just, you know, I'm not going to bother with that. I'm just going to use my psychic power to do that. He hasn't even brought anyone with him. No pilot, no custody, that shows a great amount of trust or faith that this meeting with his son for the first time will go well. Weapons ready. Ian called to the men. They lifted up an assortment of bullet launchers, shotguns, and laser rifles, looted from dead guards and captured weapons lockers. An open door on the side of the shuttle beneath the right wing just in front of Corvis the lice burst to life as a walkway extended from the ship with a clang a shadow appeared in the light waiting a moment at the entrance before Emerging into view whispers spread among the men of surprise and amazement.

They shook in trembling hands and there were noises as some of the soldiers dropped their weapons seemingly without warning the men lowered themselves to the ground putting aside their weapons and bowing their heads some became frustrated whispering fervently Corvus looked into the gap even at his side the lieutenant was on his knees; he had tears in his eyes and an expression of joy came over his loose-lipped face, so majestic that the gap even murmured what glory what power confused Corvis directed his attention to the man descending the landing ramp; in fact, he didn't seem extraordinary. He looked so ordinary that Culver couldn't discern a single distinguishing feature about him.

He was of average height with dark hair and moderately tanned skin. Before him was dressed in a white linen tunic unadorned except for a gold necklace from which hung a pendant in the shape of an eagle with its wings spread, a lightning bundle in its talons. The man's eyes were as confused as the others. he was neither blue nor green nor grainy nor brown, but a mottled mixture of everything, but there was something in those eyes that reached out to Corvis and touched his inner being; there was wisdom and goodness there and an antiquity that was very humbling but also disconcerting and here.

We have Corex seeing his father for the first time since his birth before the chaos gods took him and his siblings. Korac sees the man behind the human power who is still at the center of who the

emperor

has become. I have always fought. that of all the lever brands,

corax

has the closest physical resemblance to the

emperor

with his long dark hair and complexion, we know that corax has a slightly fairer complexion in law, but often when you see him in the novels , he has more of a tan look about him and that really symbolizes something very similar to the Emperor to me, Couric's feeling of the wisdom and goodness within the man before him and the line of antiquity that was very humbling but also disconcerting , the Emperor is practically ageless Aegis beyond measure the things he has seen the wisdom he has, correct, you are right, it must be very humbling but also a little disconcerting to find him for the first time and at the same time Corvis saw this , also witnessed the arrival of a demigod wrapped in golden light and dressed in white. finery that burned with its own light saw a stern face adorned with two golden orbs for those hired penetrating its intensity searing the center of his being the stranger seemed to tower over the kneeling men brought to speak over a copy of billowing flames it was impossible to reconcile the two images, the supreme and great king of men approached Corvis, but as the light and unimposing man flickered within, finally Corvis his mind could no longer fight the glamor and he saw the newcomer as his followers did and he turned away. filled with an overwhelming need to pay homage to this stranger and here we have the other sides of the coin, not only the human father to convince the leader of a race, the most powerful being in the galaxy, the Emperor of humanity, fought against that instinct, had waged a war. so that his people would now bow before another man the newcomers encore effect against restless men the rebel leader watched with half-lidded eyes unable to discern which image was true and which was an illusion as the stranger walked slowly and confidently through the beautiful acres that are You, Corvus, asked what have you done to my men, the stranger looks at the guerrillas looking at him with adoration, seeming to be a little bewildered at the scene, his blonde hair fell in waves over his shoulders as he turned his head spilling like burning liquid another wave.

Majesty swept Corvis and again the guerrilla commander had to make a physical effort not to fall to his knees, an occupational hazard, said the man, turning his attention to Corvis, he fixed the rebel leader with a look, his eyes now permanently golden like bottomless swirls of In the light there was a glow of power beneath his skin, as if the strangest flesh were embers marked behind the Finnish paper. Corvus experienced a momentary flutter in his chest and a knot of anxiety in his stomach, a fraction of the effect the man was having on his warriors a while ago.

A big point to note here is that the Emperor is not intentionally throwing away this power for you to worship, it is just him, the power that emanates from him, unless he makes a concentrated effort to disguise it. Kor acts like a primarch, he is a being much larger than a mere human, but still, even he struggles not to give in to this effect. I am the Emperor of humanity. He believes you. Hearing these words he was like a veil rising from the center of his eyes. He saw the Emperor as he had seen him before observing the growing child through the canopy of an incubator.

His face had been distorted by curved plates of glass but the features were unmistakable. The guerrilla leader had long reflected on the face from his earliest days. memories wondering who it belonged to now the vague memories became clear memories Corvus recorded noises, lights and booming voices that had engulfed him he remembered the surge of power and disorientation when unnatural forces had pulled him away from the plate of his creation now he saw a new with certainty the face of his father the only individual worthy of Korus his unwavering obedience he lowered himself to one indifference understanding that the stranger spoke the truth he was the master of humanity what is the name of this place the Emperor asked was it used to be called Lyceus Corvis responded now we know it as liberation a good name said the Emperor please stand up my son we have much to do Speaking of this again we have the Emperor referring to Primark as his son there is no pretense here this is the first meeting and Corex already kneeling in deference to the master of humanity, the Emperor could easily have said rights all nineteen. we have work to do or war Mr. 19, whatever you want to refer to him as just the number 19, but no, you call him son and that's because I think you really mean it.

This is a father meeting his son, yes, a created son, but from his own genetic material, the Emperor certainly has different relationships with his main marks, a very paternal one, we say Vulcan and Corax to a very distant and cold one, as with anger in an even register, which is a very human thing that the boys obtained 18 children who were created to help him conquer the galaxy but, as always, his always seen flaws return to the human essence. It's also worth noting that this was written about four years before Ad B's Master of Humanity novel, which gave us a very different version.

The Emperor is one of the double-edged swords of having multiple authors in a series. It's great, you get different interpretations of characters seen through different eyes, but sometimes you have to ask if that's always the best for me, it wasn't, but I know a lot of people prefer this colder version of the emperor and they did. Corvus withdrew from his men and led the emperor to his chambers, an ancient guard station in the middle levels of the black tower. Corvis looked for food and drink for his guests, ashamed of the meager food he could offer his father, the Emperor put aside his worries by sitting on the crude litter that served as a chair for the enormous rebel commander, Do you recognize me?

He asked. the Emperor, his expression was difficult to read. Corvus detected a hint of surprise behind the question, whatever glamor had fallen on the guerrillas had little effect on Corvis and the man in front of him was definitely the same one from his old memories as if it were a dream, he answered interestingly, the man said. emperor with a smile and a nod, although they talked about many things. Corvis was full of questions, they talked about many things, although Corvis was full of questions about the Emperor himself and the galaxy in general, he found that he did most of the talking answering constant questions from the Emperor about what had happened at the liberation and in kyiv, our Corvis.

He provided her with all the information he could about the history of the star system and the war for freedom he had waged in recent years. Corvus walked around the room while he spoke animated and full of energy. The emperor sat on the litter and occasionally nodded his head in understanding rather than approval. in fact, he showed no judgment whatsoever, neither condemning nor endorsing the core actions versus the actions, he listened carefully to everything Corvis told him, sometimes asking exceptionally pertinent questions about the smallest details, wanting to absorb everything about the core versus life, but there is a missing piece that I can't answer, Corvus finally said expressing what his heart longed to know since his first discovery, how did I get here?

The Emperor's mood darkened and his face became gloomy for the first time. He took a sip of the glass of water that Corvis had given him hours before. I was bewitched. There is another universe. He said it lies next to ours. It's called warp, I know, said Corvis, although I haven't seen it, I heard what ships can use to travel to distant Stars: some of Kirov's machines are said to harness the energy of the warp. It is a universe of unlimited power and can be accessed, as you say, by ships and by the minds of special men we call cycles.

The Emperor continued as our galaxy. the warp is inhabited by creatures that are not of flesh but fought sometimes hunger for our material lives wishing to feast on our mortality you and your brothers were taken from me by the den ziens of the warp before you were ready brothers Corvus was excited by the prospect he pushed Aside from the questions that the emperor's answers had raised, although he had made many friends among the prisoners of Lyceus, he alwaysCorvis had been aware of his other nests and when they started calling him Savior, any hope of normal relationships was over, there were others like him. filled Corvis with hope again yes, you have brothers, said the Emperor smiling at his children, delight seventeen of them, you are the main brands, my best creations.

Here we see the simple human emotions of both beings, far above the rest of humanity, first, the resentment of the Emperor when he talks about the dispersion of the lever marks and then corrects his enthusiasm at the possibility of having brothers with other beings like him to finally have normal relationships and the Emperor's happiness at seeing his son's reaction upon finding out about his brothers, all genuine human reactions. seventeen Corvis asked confused I remember I was number nineteen, how can that be? Then Emperor Bleek's expression group was filled with deep sadness, he looked away as he responded to the other two, he said, there is a conversation for another day, where are my brothers now?

With you, you and the other primates will be taken from me by strange warp powers cast across the galaxy on unnatural tides, which is how you came to rest beneath the glacier moon. Yes, I have seen what happened to you. Knowing your life at the time I saw you, the rumor about you of a magnificent being who led a rebellion here has traveled further than you think and it was the word of this that attracted my attention. Your brothers, the ones I found, were equally scattered to distant places. thrown worlds like you, you are all great warriors and leaders and that was my gift to you, you are supreme commander with an intellect and physical ability unmatched by anything in the mass of humanity.

I designed them from my own genetic makeup to be my sons and my lieutenants in the Great Crusade again a little comment from the Emperor not only does he say that the lieutenants are my sons and my lieutenants of course you could say he said that to ensure his loyalty, but the guy already knelt in tribute. I don't think the Emperor cares what this crusade is. How many of my brothers have you found? Most of them responded to the Emperor. I have vast armies. The liji oneiza starties, since you are created from me, so they are created from you.

The lever marks are. the generals of those armies leading humanity's reconquest of the galaxy the long night the age of strife is over the remains of the ancient Empire burn in the darkness the dying embers of humanity almost smothered by darkness the Great Crusade fan the flames bring life he with that reason to expel superstition enlightenment to replace barbarism with your help I will unite humanity and lead humanity to rule the Stars It was a lot to take in but Corvis knew it was true not only the Emperor's words The idea of ​​what he described was mixed with much deeper feelings, knowing that he was a core arc that he had been created to fight and be in command of, explains a lot that the core had never understood about himself on a level. that he understood in his spirit and was encoded in every cell of his being. his body Corvus knew what it was I swear my loyalty to you said Corvis sinking on one knee in front of the Emperor he met the Emperor's gaze and felt a euphoria as if no victory had given him before I am your son your primark and your will will be my command That's good said the Emperor I have an army waiting for you they are the Raven Guard highly decorated and distinguished in my campaigns and when you are ready you will assume command of the Legion I am NOT ready now Corvus said having been elated and Then, deflated by the words of the Emperor, not yet my son, said the Emperor, but you will soon emerge to join your brothers and take your place at my side and at the head of the Raven guard first, though first tell me from kyiv, what are your intentions to bring? peace for both the world and its moon and to heal all the wounds of the past said Corvis with your help I will be successful peace is the most difficult goal to achieve said the Emperor victory the cessation of war the demilitarization of our opponents these we can obtain with the power of armed peace that is a completely different beast Corvus frowned but nodded slowly the emperor took a sip from his glass his gaze motionless tell me again and then tell me of your wounds that you and your warriors inflicted on this world and of the peace you would bring to With my help, there we have it right, his first meeting with his father, the Emperor of humanity, and a great commentary on Indian peace.

Peace is the most difficult goal to achieve peace. It's a completely different beast. You know, it shows that the Emperor understands the difference between simply conquering. our people and regain the achievement of true lasting peace, that is not something that is always considered when we talk about the Emperor of humanity and his plans for the human race, as you know, I enjoy human moments of curiosity, brands, boasts and Couric had always seemed like one. one of the most human lever brands with all the strengths and flaws that brings and always seemed to have one of the closest relationships with the Emperor as a result here the Emperor seems genuinely happy in his encounter with corax showing his happiness or corax his emotion of having brothers the interest of wanting to know as many details as possible about their past without being judged and then later in the heresy we have the Emperor allowing Corex to access the data of the Primark project how many lever brands would have been trusted With That's a great question but I really don't think there would have been many, but what do you think of this meeting?

Do you feel she was as genuine as I do? How do you think it compares to your relationship with others? major brands, do you feel like I do that the emperor has a very good bond with corax unlike some of the others like getting angry and logging in? Do you think maybe it's because the central acts in Vulcan have a more human element? Did you think about this interaction? Do they feel as genuine as I do or do they like to attach themselves to the cold Emperor? He must always pretend in his interaction with Corax. How about mending their relationship with the Emperor in general?

It's like one of the closest ones like me, it seems like the Emperor has a more careful bonding relationship if it were with certain lever brands and they seem to be the ones most in touch with the human element of their personalities, but as always, leave a comment below.
