This story will not be told. No Imperial scholar will pass on the tale of Rylanor's final act. History, if it remembers him at all, will remember him as an Emperor's Child who died at the beginning of the Great Heresy, a victim of one of the greatest massacres in the history of the galaxy. Even fewer will know of Vistario, the heretic who chose redemption at the very end of his wretched life.
But the one who _needs_ to know will remember. He, in his deepest and most private moments, will *never* forget the son that rejected him at the greatest heights of his glory. Let that be enough.
Bloody Hell, Dude. That was beautiful.
I love that you gave mention to Vistario's redemption.
@@randomcenturion7264 Thank you. Just something I scrabbled together while in the daze of my first listen to this song.
In the grim darkness of the 41st millennium, sometimes you have to be content with the small victories from forgotten heroes.
You should join the black library...
No matter if your act is remembered, or if you feel as though you have done enough... The only thing that matters is that you were the one who acted.
Rylanor is no heretic, he remained loyal to his dying breath and gave Fulgrim the Ultimate middle finger that will last him for all eternity.
"I am beauty, I am perfection, I am-"
"The emperor's biggest failure..."

Well, it makes sense. The thousand sons aren’t exactly worshippers of chaos, many are still loyal to the emperor, but they were just deemed as heretics and had nowhere else to go but chaos.
Fulgrim : ( FALLS TO CHAOS )
RYLANOR : " and I took that personally "

@@solaireofsomewhere4706 those who may be still loyal or not are lost to ages becaming ash golems.
It was the emperor who wasn t loyal to them, tbh.
@@lvo9197 More like it was Horus that wasn't loyal to them.
I love how Fulgrim's whole plan is to try and counter what Rylanor would say. He wanted to fuel and flatter his own ego. Rylanor then just says "Fuck you bitch" and throws a virus bomb at him. No monologue or grand statement about betraying the Emperor. Rylanor was humble, and just got right to the point, and Fulgrim genuinely can't comprehend it.
Honestly while Fulgrims plan i can agree with you, i just dont think Fulgrim is so far gone that he cant understand Determination and Faith (well faith in the sense you believe in what you have to do not religious stuff), hell he fought Dorn of all Primarchs ofc you'd understand that the values and honor Rylanor presents.
What he doesnt understand however is himself, Fulgrim and his legion always sought perfection and the Daemon Primarch now think Chaos was the answer to perfection, but by embracing that idea of "perfection" he just doesnt see the point in the idea that always seeking perfection (what the Legion stood for) rather than being "perfect" is where the real value lies in.
Both judges the other as clearly unfit, Fulgrim thinks he should help his old companion into the fold where his perfection lies, and Rylanor just wishes to end the abomination that became of his Primarch as he betrayed what he stood for.
Rylanor waited for litteral millenia, you bet he wasnt gonna wait even LONGER now that Fulgrim was finally here.
That also means that his resulting speech was improvised. It wasn’t planned at all, and it managed to convince three Thousand Sons to turn on Fulgrim. It shows how pure his determination was and how low Fulgrim fell
Rylanor was always an absolute badass, the full scene is WELL worth a read if you love this rendition of it as well.
'Never! All we have left between us is that we will die together!' roared the Dreadnought, the upper portion of his carapace burning with blue flames. 'I am Rylanor of the Emperor's Children, Ancient of Rites, Venerable of the Palatine Host, and proud servant of the Emperor of Mankind, Beloved by all! I reject you now and always!'
There's also a theory that fulgrim knew where rylanor was the whole time, he was just waiting for an audience
This is the most badass discord call ever
indeed
@Commissar Cain I can totally see Fulgrim being a Discord admin
Covid's been fuckin' everyone over so bad even Nurgle is forcing his followers to wear masks and socially distance.
Fulgrim:LOLOLOL LOSER NERD
The Ancient Of Rites, Rylanor The Unyielding: Ult Ready.
Fulgrim:WHAT
Vistario:WHAT
Thousands Sons Sorcerer: WHAT
It is now my headcanon that the mechanicus simply integrated Discord into the visors and neural links of space marine armor
Fulgrim was the only Primarch who never fought on his home planet: he was so convincing that he never needed to, and he was so damn charming the *Emperor* was impressed enough to give him the right to bear the Emperor's own marks.
And yet, here, not only did he fail to convince one of his own even with his full Chaos powered charisma, but another Traitor Legion would rather see everyone there *die* then let Fulgrim win. The man who once charmed someone akin to a god was rejected so hard that he reedemed a traitor.
THAT is why his pride will never recover from this.
Tzeentch woudl have a field day in Chaos god chat rubbing it in
Tzeentch: why do you think my pawns are there? why do you think they sacrificed themselves? All is JUST AS PLANNED.
Agree, the Ancient of Rites willpower was so powerful that he denied not only his gene-sire that all Space Marines have an inherent loyalty to, but one powered by the most insidious Chaos God, and still he remained loyal.
Maybe, just maybe, being a filthy, heretical traitor doesn't do good for your valuable skills.
"What has happened to Fulgrim?" What i was thinking while listening to this and browsing pictures of Fulgrim. How can a Primarch fell so low? How can someone justify any of this, in any way or regard, his acts, his form, his twisted mindset? I think the only one matching this depth for me is Angron, maybe Mortarion. Great writting. Fulgrim is total abomination.

My favourite part of this is when they acknowledge that even though Rylanor is withered, ancient, and half dead he is still enough to stop them in their tracks and still think ‘I don’t think we can take him’
He is motivated by his hatred of Fulgrim and loyalty to the emperor, making him want to fight even harder
and hes not the walking frideg hes the better great crusade version i belive is called a redemptor
Dude’s just built different
its not just will.. he was alone on that world, without maintenance for 10.000 years besides whatever he could manage to do himself (and with how big a dread's mitts are, its already a miracle he even managed to set up the beacon and rig the bomb); the dreadnought must have been literally an inch away from just falling apart, eaten by rust and the joints struggling to move from lack of oiling. And even in that decaying state he was STILL seen as a big threat by friggin sorcerers.
Y'all gotta remember that dreadnaughts are some pretty heavy machinery. If they close in melee then a single blow could kill most normal space marines, and at a range it depends on the dreadnought, but they could be gunned down by a minigun fairly easy. Mix that with heavy armor and you got trouble, even if he is hardly mobile. Fulgrim is only able to beat him in the initial fight so easily because primarchs are literally built different.
Imagine failing so badly at being charismatic that you not only fail to convince one of your own sons to not kill you, you fail so hard that an ostensibly-allied force joins in to commit ritual suicide purely in the name of SPITING YOU.
That's a nat 1 on the charisma check if I ever saw one
this is like rolling 4 charisma checks and having them all come up as nat 1s
such an immense critical failure that im surprised fulgrim didnt just fall face down into the chaos equivilent of a bed and start sobbing
@@boomerpro87 Hell you would need to devise a negative dice just for this
@@Schinak the game was rigged from the start. Rylanor has the attribute "Ancent of Rites" granting him +35 to Will saves. It's pretty much the most OP attribute in the whole game, because not even a nat 1 can make him fail a +35.

Remember: Canonically, Rylanor's disstrack is more powerful than the virus bomb.
Yep. The insult to fulgrim now a full warp being is actually a very strong attack. They are heavily affected by thoughts and emotions and the fact that fulgrim in his full warp chaotic beauty couldn't sway one of his most prized children is probably incredibly damaging.
@@Tearakan Most definitely considering his abundance of pride.
Not just Rylanor's disstrack. Vistario's.
"Primarch Fulgrim! Rylanor deserves better than you! Rylanor deserves better than all of us."
The best of Fulgrim's sons is better than Fulgrim. And members of a rival Traitor Legion, in service to the God of Betrayal and Deceit, are literally willing to sacrifice themselves - a sacrifice that they, Magnus, and their god gain nothing from - just to prevent Fulgrim from corrupting Rylanor.
Ouch.
@@Tearakan Also, Fulgrim is *pride incarnate*. Think about that. Rylanor managed to wound the pride of *pride incarnate*.
@@Former_Halo_Fan Rylanor convinced one of the Thousand Sons to sacrifice himself. When the Thousand Son said that the Raptorae was "relieved of duty," he meant that the Thousand Son had put a bolt in the back of his brother's head. Still, even though they serve Tzeentch, the Thousand Sons are probably the nicest of the Traitor Legions. Usually, if you get captured by one, you'll be turned into a wizard, rather than a sex slave (Slaanesh), a test subject (Nurgle), or just murdered (Khorne). And yes, that applies to non-psykers because, even if their psychic potential is limited, they still have some potential for sorcery.
*'Is this it?'* he said. *'You sought to draw me here to kill me?'
*
Rylanor triggered his assault cannon, but - fast as quicksilver - Fulgrim caught it and crushed it before it could fire.
'*No, I don't think so,*' said the primarch, effortlessly ripping the arm from the Dreadnought's body. Sparks flew from the ruptured limb and Fulgrim gave the weapon a dismissive glance before tossing it aside.
*'You betrayed us,*' bellowed Rylanor. '*Your sons! You led us here to die. There is no forgiveness for that. None! You must die by my hand! The Emperor's justice will fall upon you. Not even Fulgrim the Illuminator can escape the Life Eater.'*
*'You wish me dead?'* he said, scathing pity dripping from every syllable. *'Why? Because you think I betrayed you? The Legion? Oh, Rylanor, your thoughts are so narrow. If you could only see us now, how beautiful we have become. We shine so brightly, each of us a brilliant sun.'
*
Fulgrim reached down, sliding his bare hand inside a rent torn in the Dreadnought's armour. He smiled, closing his eyes and letting his tongue slip across his lips as he pushed deeper inside.
'*Ah, there you are!*' said Fulgrim, as Rylanor's vox-caster grated in fury. '*Wet and wriggling. I can feel your panic. It's delicious!'
*
Rylanor's power fist swung around, bathed in fire. It struck Fulgrim on the shoulder, but Akhtar's psychic force was not simply confined to the Life Eater's detonation. Fulgrim laughed off the sluggish attack and one of his lower arms drew a glittering sword of alien origin. The blade a sliced in a cruelly precise arc, cutting through the fibre-bundle motivators and servos.
Rylanor's arm fell limp at his side.
Vistario watched the viral fire spread over the Dreadnought's carapace, slipping inside his buckled plates of armour. Rylanor did not care whether he lived or died, only that Fulgrim went with him.
*'Do. Not. Do. This!'* barked the Dreadnought.
*'Why not? I am your master - I can do whatever I like. I can crush you or I can raise you up. Return to the Legion. Accept the gifts of the Dark Prince, and you will walk at my side, clad once again in flesh. You can be anything, old friend! I will sculpt you into something beautiful - a god to these mortals!'
*
'*Never! All we have left between us is that we will die together!*' roared the Dreadnought, the upper portion of his carapace burning with blue flames. 'I am Rylanor of the Emperor's Children, Ancient of Rites, Venerable of the Palatine Host, and proud servant of the Emperor of Mankind, Beloved by all! I reject you now and always!'
Fulgrim laughed and said, '*I'm sorry, did it sound like I was offering you a choice?'
*
The primarch wrenched his hand from Rylanor's sarcophagus, dragging a sopping mass of fluid and matter with him. Glutinous ropes dripped from his fingers; he was like a midwife holding a mewling newborn. Ruptured cables spilled amniotic fluid so stagnant it must surely have been poisoning Rylanor with every passing second.
'*I will remake you, brother,'* said Fulgrim. *'You will be my crowning achievement.'
*
Though his body was little more than rags of wet meat, Vistario sensed Rylanor's horror at the last violation. An inescapable destiny where he would become what he hated most.
*+What do we do?+
*
The question was Murshid's and the connection between the Thousand Sons was so strong that Athanaean's perception for emotion spread to all three of them.
Vistario felt Fulgrim's infinite malice, his cruel enjoyment of Rylanor's anguish and the helplessness of the Thousand Sons. The primarch of the Emperor's Children revelled in his overwhelming pride, a trait Magnus had more than once told Vistario had been present long before his fall.
But more than anything, stronger even than Fulgrim's spite, Vistario felt Rylanor's pride and honour, the unbending core of greatness that had set him against his brothers and had seen him descend into obsessive madness beneath the surface of a dead world.
Vistario took the measure of Fulgrim, seeing nothing worthy in him.
His warriors felt the moment his decision was made.
+*Primarch Fulgrim!*+ sent Vistario. +*Rylanor deserves better than you.+
*
The primarch looked up, his once bright eyes now black and filled with the darkest poison.
+*He deserves better than all of us.*+
He raised his bolter and fired a mass-reactive into the back of Akhtar's skull. The Raptora's head exploded and with his death, the psychic force holding back the warhead's detonation ended.
Vistario saw fire.
And once more, all life burned.
Farewell Vistario. You reclaimed your honor.
@@randomcenturion7264 Nah dude, he's a TS. Just because he was killed, doesn't mean he's dead. He'll just be revived on Sortiarius by Magnus.

@@Schinak He may be missing some parts from before his fall, but to say that he's no longer any part of Magnus from before is just wrong.
And what would he be disgusted by? His sons fucking over Fulgrim because he was just too disgusting? He probably agrees with them.
And fucking over another Chaos faction in such a way probably gives the Mollusk a nerd boner too.
@Benito Mussolini Not easily... Magnus had his soul shattered and a good number of the "good" fragments destroyed (daemonic Prince Magnus is the part of him composed of his hatred and destroyed that part of him linked to his compassion by literally trying to eat it (over and over till it faded from the strain of resisting if memory serves) and the part representing loyalty got killed by a spacewolf above fenris (gray knight incarnation)

The stories of every loyalist from the traitor legions that died in glory and with honour, in service of the Imperium.
The last moment of Rylanor's defiance is kinda a tribute to every loyalist from traitor legions. However after listening in to this song i am beginning to think that there was a diffrence between loyal legions and loyalists from traitor legions. Blood Angels, Imperial Fists and others were loyal to the Emperor, while Rylanor, Gravie Loken and the rest seemed to share the Emperor's dream. The galaxy clean of threats to humanity. The last lines in this song proves that to me. Rylanor says " I remember the virtues i stood for" "that you think i seek any glory". To me he basically says to Fulgrim, Chaos will not give me what want, because i belive in the dream of the Imperium of Man. It kinda shows the essence of Space Marines before the Horus Heresy. SM were just people who wanted to change the galaxy for a better.
At least that's what i think
Agreed, that's the reason why some Loyal Astartes still fall to Chaos.
Only those that share the Emperor's Dream remain truly loyal until the end.
Such feelings. A Space Marine gives up everything to become what he is. Their childhood, their younger ages, their love, friends, family, all the experiences of life, the chance for a family, working and creating.. basically everything that can make a human life enjoyable. In the Heresy book, it is written that Space Marines had literally nothing. A couple battle trophies that's all. No enjoyment, no hobbies, no companionship. In a strange way of compassion, I understand why so many rebelled. Many have been wondering if the worlds they have left behind was better than before the Astarte found them. The same thing Choas SM keep rehearsing. Their fate and duty twisted, broken, pointless and wrong.
The hardest contrast to 40k, and why they were wrong most importantly. Loyalist, who understood his dreams and visions saw what will become from the seed and why do they fight. It's not just their faith that was unshaken. They were not fools, and they also understood what the Traitors ruined. What Lorgar did not understood, what was he seeding.
Compared to 40k, where every loyalist, fighting like maddened zealots, till the last drop of their blood and breath leaving their body, with every scratch of their iron will, and unshakable faith, only hoping that with every step they take, with every effort made, they hopefully further their chapter long enough, so it would survive the next calamity. And why? That only too, so they could stand for humanity just a bit longer. That a Space Marine would give so much for a broken dream, to be the "rotten fence", to stand for what has humanity became. A dream and vision that was so easily broken in 30k. A dream and vision that is unimaginable in 40k.
Made me cry, thxs
Well that is the reason why the first members of the Inquisition were all loyal Traitor Marines :D
Too bad if that dream had ever been achieved the Emperor probably would've disposed of his loyal children like the Thunder Warriors.
No line can possibly hit harder than Rylanor proudly proclaiming that he is one of The Emperor's Children in spite of how the title's significance had been dragged through the mud, I like to think that monolithic act of defiance hit Fulgrim like a sack of bricks to the head
Exactly, that part hits the hardest
That must have hit har door Fulgrim
As well as every single thing Rylanor said he did befor is very end

@@galomir833 Eh not really. Chaos is, as the name suggest, chaotic. While temporary alliances do happen most of the time the different Chaos factions fight each other. The gods of Chaos are enemies whose goal is to undermine one another and therefore their respective followers aren't too friendly with each other. However, they may all unite from time to time during a Black Crusade under the banner of Chaos Undivided. Afterwards though they will go right back to fighting and scheming against each other

@@nikoclesceri2267, just a year for the Marines
@@Butter_Warrior99 Most marines only live 1-1.5k years. Moreover, being in a dreadnought is uncomfortable, painful, and maddening over time. Even Bjorn, a 10k year old dreadnought, has to be put into slumber in order for him to not lose his sanity. It is a testament to Rylanor's strength that he survived and kept his sanity after 10,000 years with no slumber, no peace, and no comfort. Only the shear, unbridled rage for his father which tethered his mind to the world.

Every Time I read this comment section since this morning.
Hello friend
Well it seems to be a pattern, that space marines are a better representation of Legions principles than the Primarchs that lead said Legions . With Fulgrim it's Rilanor, with Ferrus it's Meduson, with Perturabo it's Dantioh, with Magnus it's Arvida, with Mortarion it's Garro and so on.

The Dreadnought chasis was so broken because it has carried the sheer god damn weight of Ancient Rylanor's massive balls for few millenia.

Sadly unlikely. Only Fulgrim and MAYBE Magnus know about Rylanor at all at this point.
While they don’t know the ultimate fate of the ancient, my chapter, a disparate band of surviving EC, WE, SoH, and DG loyalists (and those who followed after) have been fighting against the heretics for 10,000 years. One of theyre greatest chapter masters who was greivously wounded but refused to stop fighting was bestowed a great honor upon his entermnet. Tho he was not the unyielding, he is the Unbroken.

I'd rather have Rylanor's final act of defiance unknown to anyone except Fulgrim, it makes things more tragic.
And more personal to Fulgrim.
to understand how impressed the thousand sons were,Magnus the Red was willing to commit the worst crimes in the imperium to save his legion,he gave up an eye for that he LOVED his sons
For them to see Fulgrim abusing Rylanor and the hatred his son carried against his primarch tells them enough about Fulgrim
He waited for 10k years,just so he can hurt his father
what kind of pain did Fulgrim put him trough?for them it was clear as day who was in the right
The moment Fulgrim picked up a s6x toy. Also Istvaan III massacre of true loyal battle brothers.
Read Galaxy In Flames by Ben Counter, Flight of the Eisenstein by James Swallow and Fulgrim by Graham McNeill. You'll understand then.
Let us remember the Venerable Rylanor, the Ancient of Rites, one who dissed Fulgrim so hard that some onlooking Thousands Sons' sorcerers sacrificed themselves willingly just so he could have his revenge.

Saul and Solomon were also the loyalists' commanding officers in Istvaan 3. Both EC's.
@@Primus_Phallus Indeed. And Lucius(the Eternal) was actually assigned to the loyalist landings. He was so obnoxious, that even the likes of Fulgrim and Eidalon didn't want him. Lucius only turned traitor when he found a way to warm back up to Eidalon, by slaughtering his loyalist comrades.

Based beyond words, I declare Rylanor to be the best Space Marine of all time.
There are many that bear the title "Astartes." But few can truly claim to be a Space Marine.
Astartes and Space Marine are not the same. One is a title earned by becoming a battle-brother. The other is an ideal to live up to. A standard by which legends are measured.
You can be an Astartes, but not a true Space Marine.
Rylanor fought by the side of the Emperor Himself, and was the first to carry the banner of the Palatine Aquila, the symbol of the Emperor.
He is the first true Space Marine. Not a defender of the Imperium but of Humanity. Not a title but a legend. Not an angel but a hero.
Not the son of Fulgrim, but the last of the true Emperor's Children.
The only ones who deserve the mantle of Space Marine are Rylanor, Saul Tarvites, Garveil Loken, and Dante
And every single lamenter
The best of us all.
@@ladywaffle2210 these are probably the manliest tears my lady eyes have ever shed.
I like to think Fulgrim found him almost immediately post heresy but was waiting for someone to notice, after a few millennia he ensured the signal would get out so that someone would send someone to give him that audience he craves
That’s why how he made it there so quickly, just absolutely dying for hear what Rylanor will say, and just preparing the perfect counters to all his arguments, just for Rylanor to go “fuck you, have a virus bomb” 😂
Pretty much what I've always thought. He wanted an audience to witness their reunion and hear the speech Rylanor was going to give all about Fulgrims favorite subject: Fulgrim.
And that makes it even more ironic. He waited 10,000 years to have an audience to what he thought would a triumph over the last vestige of his loyalist sons, only to have that same audience contribute to one of the worst defeats he has ever suffered.

I have a soft spot for the Thousand Sons. They're generally cool guys, don't really commit atrocities (their attack on Fenris notwithstanding), and their primarch, unlike the others who willingly embraced chaos, only turned to Tzeentch to save his sons and himself.
Also, the Thousand Sons being willing to assist a loyalist Astartes in temporarily killing that asswipe Fulgrim is definitely another point in their favor.
The Thousand Sons are some of the most tragic villains of 40k. Magnus, despite his flaws and mistakes, was someone who genuinely loved the Imperium and the Emperor. And the more Magnus tried to help, the more everything fell down around him. Desperation led him into the embrace of evil, one which he had no choice but to accept or else his sons would die. Yet he couldn't save them in the end, and now all that remains of his proud legion are empty husks and broken bodies. His dream of knowledge and advancing humanity as a psychic species has been cast aside or twisted, either by the Imperium or himself. Magnus may have made mistakes, but that was because he was misguided, not out of evil intentions.
And the worst part is that, from a certain point of view, Magnus the Red is dead, because his soul was broken into fragments and his best parts never returned to him, so all that remains is but a shadow of who Magnus once was: the Crimson King.
Even we know Fenris doesn’t count towards atrocities for 2 things, Is anybody living there? And 2, Wolves burned Prospero, we’ll give you psychic nerds a freebie.
@@imperialfist2304 Yes, people do live on Fenris. It's the only place the Space Wolves can recruit from because their gene-seed only works in Fenrisian natives for some reason. Any other Humans suffer extremely horrible rejections.
KaBar41 I still give you the freebie for prospero
@@imperialfist2304 I am willing to call it an eye for eye and that the Sons have had their revenge. Hopefully Magnus gets a redemption arc, Russ is found, the two brothers hug it out and the two peoples are able to unite as one absolutely, utterly terrifying, Chaos slaughtering force.
Fulgrim’s sadness at the end makes me wonder if it’s not just embarrassment, but regret. Rylanor was a reminder of the past, and reminded the Primarch what he could have been had he not given up everything to chase perfection. And now that’s gone forever.
Specially because Ryalor atack him like he was any other enemy of the great crusade. Is clearly he dosent see his genesolder as anything else but a monster.
Given that Primarch after turning to Chaos are no longer really a Primarch and behave and act totally different than they did prior to becoming corrupted I do not think so, the only thing that remains the same between their time as a loyalist to their corruption is just that they have the memories, but how they view and treat those memories are completely distorted.
The evidence is that a clone of Fulgrim has been made and it's actually pre-corrupted Fulgrim with all his memories and is disgusted with the corrupted version of himself (This is evidence to that they just don't think alike at all anymore at this point). The issue is that the Necron (forgot his name) the one who has that massive collection library took him and put him in his library to look at for his pleasure.
So no, the Fulgrim here is not sad, he is angry and his pride has been wounded to never be recovered which is stated because it's important as Demon princes/ The chaos gods gain their power through conceptualization meaning Fulgrims pride being wounded and never to recover will literally be a wound he won't be able to recover from and still hasn't.
@@forgblack5222 the cron you are thinking of is trazyn the infinite. aka Trollzyn the tarpit breaker, one of the galaxies biggest kleptomaniacs up their with the blood ravens.
I don't know about regret but I think maybe just a shade of doubt now follows him, I think that will be much more crippling in the long run
in the end that is the fulgrims greatest weakness he knows he ISNT perfect because in his fall to choas he lost his morality and thus his ablity to feel true non vainglorious pride he indluges in overwhelming horror sin and evil because the hedonistic rush of vainglory is the only thing he can truly feel.
if daemon fulgrim was ever truly WHOLLY beaten on the feild of battle by another enemy in a disgracefull way i truly belive his internal self worth is so weak and fragile hed break down into geuine tears even as the daemon king of toture hes become.
_Vistario took the measure of Fulgrim, seeing nothing worthy in him._
A fun thing to consider is that when this event takes place Fulgrim has already become a full Daemon Prince, meaning he has shed his physical form and become a being of pure warp matter. Warp matter is influenced by your own thoughts and consciousness. It's why staying in there long-term causes Chaos Marines and their followers to find their bodies warping and mutating into twisted extensions of their own inner demons and personal faults. Fulgrim had become a "perfect" serpentine 'angel' of a daemon, relishing and reveling in his self-conceived beauty and pride, and how he saw himself as perfect and infallible.
Now consider that Rylanor inflicted a psychological wound on Fulgrim by rejecting him and damaging the pride which is the foundation upon which the Primarch defines his own existence. This could very well be the equivalent of giving Fulgrim a form of metaphysical warp cancer, as the injury to his pride, and thus his very soul and existence, will forever mark him, and his psychically projected/shaped form. It could spread and ruin him if given time, if he dwells on his defeat on Istavaan III.
Huh, that's actually pretty cool
Well that's litterally what the end of the song tells ?...
His pride, as a Slaneesh Prince Daemon was hurt, and altough his body escaped from the bomb, his pride of being fooled will never heal and will weaken him for eternity...
And this is how Clonegrim came about, I don't doubt. The one who represents what Fulgrim _could_ have been. Not an illusion of the arrogant assumption of perfection, but one who now knows that perfection is impossble, but one that should still be sought so that you can be better than you are. One who knows everything his original has done and is horrified by it, as he sees the lies that his original has wrapped around himself. Clonegrim has rejected those lies.
Just imagine if fulgrim some how Un corrupted by this fulgrim who is fall so deep can be save by this rylanors last gift to humanity
A son redeeming his father by destroying his pride
It could be awesome
another fun thing to remember, the virus bomb wouldnt really have done shit to him since he's a demon primarch (but at the time he wouldnt have known about that since emps kept chaos so hard under wraps back in 30k) so those thousand sons showing up ended up letting him do more damage than he could have possibly done with the bomb
"Never! All we have left between us is that we will die here together! I am Rylanor of the Emperor's Children, Ancient of Rites, Venerable of the Palatine Host, and proud servant of the Emperor of Mankind, beloved by all! I reject you! Now and always!"
True words of a loyalist, he died in glory.
@Benito Mussolini His sacrifice wasn't in vain because he was able to wound Fulgrim's pride which a wound that will last forever.
He went out as he lived on istivan 3 dunking on his primarch
He went out in a blaze of glory
"Long live Rylanor the ancient of rights!"
I love how in 40k waiting for a million nights is not only not an exaggeration, but is actually an understatement
Indeed, it is more than THREE million nights...
To be fair, a million nights is around 3k more or less years so yeah
Well. It might actually be quite accurate. Considering there is no reason that the day/night cycle of Istvaan II is the same as Earth. It could be 3 times longer.
I imagine the reason Magnus sent them was simple. Snake-Boi wasn't just verbally shat on by Rylanor, it happen in front of an audience. And that audience cheered his humiliation, and opposed him, even insulted him.
That surely damages his pride more than an old dreadnought simply blowing the bomb immediately. It was all about humiliation.
Remember Magnus initially wanted to oppose the traitors, I believe he still resents them because their betrayal set in motion the event that was his greatest failure. And giving his future sight, it's totally plausible he knew EXACTLY how his Marines would react to Rylanor.

If your wondering if the "Million Nights" line is correct, it is! Rylanor waited 10,000 YEARS! For his righteous vengeance, that is 3,650,000 Nights! His Honour is Eternal! For the Emperor and the Golden Throne!
Question: do we know if it's just one million nights, or several? Because in fact we don't know if it's really been 10,000 years after the heresy. If it's been a million nights, it's less than 3000 years ago

My headcannon is that Magnus was aware and respected Rylanor's scheme against Fulgrim and sent his sons to make sure it works out, one way or another.
A scheme millennia in the making was fulfilled and Fulgrim got humbled in the process. Win-win for Magnus.
not really a win win when he had to sacrifice three of his sons, He aint got many of them anymore. but to fuck over a demon primarch? the sacrifice would be worthy.

A short tale and wonderful song that captures what I love about Warhammer. Even battered, broken and offered power, Rylanor rejected corruption and stood for everything good about the Astartes, about humanity. He may have died and Fulgrim survived, but still he won.

Ashes on the wind, ringing with the sting of rejection and failure.

And may your sacrifice be remembered
I had never heard of the tale of Rylanor. But once I did, I remembered an ancient ritual, held at Quan Zhou. Once a year, a feast is held. Two thirds of the food is burned in a great fire pit. The burnt food is killed in the act and sent to the realm of the dead, supposedly.
This year, I witnessed a great stag burning in the fire. And I knew that the Ancient Rylanor, Venerable of the Palatine Host, eats well in the afterlife.
Let us hope, if the legion of the damned is, in fact, those who were betrayed on isstvan, that he joins his brothers in arms against those who betrayed them. For one day, fulgrim may find himself face to face with the ancient of rights one last time.
Rylanor was so loyal he made the marine from The Thousand Sons return to light of the Emperor!
It really shows Horus' logic was right. If he hadn't had all the remaining loyalists in the traitor chapters killed on Istvaan III who knows how many more Rylanors there mightve been; exceedingly loyal martyrs who were capable of returning traitors to the fold.
@@ShotgunFiend *Blood Ravens whistling nervously*
They didn't become loyal. You have to understand, the Emperor always saw Space Marines as a necessary tool in order to further Humanity's goals. He only really cared about his Companions and even may not be entirely true, but rather from case to case. But Astartes themselves, they cared for one another. They cultivated true brotherhood and even those who turned to Chaos still sought it. The tragedy of the Thousand Sons is that they never wanted to turn to Chaos, but they were forced to by the acts of Space Wolves and trickery of Horus who intercepted and changed orders. Some may still believe in Emperor's dream for Humanity, others willingly turned to Chaos in order to gain power or knowledge. But they still all fled and became who they are now.
I mentioned brotherhood and this is important part. Vistario understands what brotherhood means to Astartes, that it is the strongest bond they can form. More importantly, he knows what Fulgrim does to his Legion. To him, Rylanor was likely an exemplar of what an Astartes should be and simply did not want Fulgrim to corrupt him. Not corrupt in terms of Chaos, but corrupt in terms of 'to become an anathema of what Astartes should be'. It is likely that seeing Rylanor simply reminded him of what things were like, when Legion was united and fighting together for a cause. So he decided to die with honor of Astartes and keep Rylanor's honor intact. So he didn't exactly became loyal again to the Emperor and the Imperium, he simply cleansed his honor and preserved that of Rylanor, before Fulgrim could turn him into an abomination.
Rylanor's whole sentence leading to his final rejection to Fulgrim still shakes me and it brings a tear to my eyes every time. Vistario is right, I can no longer see an Old Rusty Dreadnaught facing Primarch. Rylanor's honor and virtue that he upheld for millenias shone the brightest right there and then, he's a warrior that was loyal to the very "end", and I put that in quote marks because I am sure that even in death he is still serving.
Rylanor, a man too proud to be contained by a mere dreadnought's shell. That virus bomb was the second most powerful weapon on the planet, the first was his courage and valor. Ave Imperator, Ancient of Rites.
Shouldn't understate the valor of the Thousand Sons for deciding to honor Rylanor's virtue and give a massive fuck you to fulgrim even if it was not going to kill him.

@@happiness8512 mortarion fell to save his legion. Of course he cares for the.
Long enough for it to truly matter.
In the book, the writer goes to great lengths to show how disgusting and abhorrent fulgrim is.
I think the reason why Rylanor's speech hurt Fulgrim so much is because in that moment his son was everything Fulgrim himself was intended to be - unbowed, unbroken, magnificent in his true glory of eternal loyalty, inspiring even the other legions to fight and if necessary die happily for their cause. Fulgrim was shocked and his soul damaged because deep within his heart he always wanted to be like Rylanor and he realized that he can never achieve that with Slaanesh corruption.
When he says that he is one of the Emperor's Children, I am overwhelmed with respect for him. For me personally, the Emperor's Children are the second most defiled legion of all, and when Rylanor says this, it takes my breath away, he is like a monolith in a sea of filth, he is like a shining light of purity and loyalty among betrayal and abomination. HE IS RYLANOR THE KEEPER OF TRADITIONS! And I'll be damned if I'll let this light disappear in the middle of the darkness! I'd rather die than let Fulgrim defame this light! On this side, any of the Space Marines would have done the same thing as these sorcerers.
