When Orikan says he was the only naysayer and was dragged to the biofurnaces to Trazyn, Trazyn also says that's how he remembers it and wonders whether their memories were tampered with during biotransference.
It was said that Orikans was the only dissenting voice against biotransferrence. He was the only one dragged in chains to the furnaces. Trazyn recollects that he was taken from his library, forced to turn into a machine, but Orikan tells that it was Trezyn who held the chains of Orikan.
Sir Scholar, your videos are just amazing. One does truly notice how much effort you've put into perfecting every aspect of the storytelling aswell as the script. Keep up the amazing work my good sir! 10/10 quality as as always!
Thank you very much! I have been gradually putting more and more time into these as of late, but I'm really happy with the end results so it always feels worthwhile
I really like how you broke down the War into understandable phases and time periods. It helped me greatly understand how the war was conducted. . . . . So many other 40K videos covering the "War in Heaven" just lumped all the information together into one big blob and information dump. It was confusing.
Yeah I really love all the half told stories like these. I'm sure if GW wanted they could fill out a 10+ book series on it, but I like that there's still an air of mystery to it
It's kind of trippy when you realize that the current era for most empires is the C'Tan's "End of Civilization" moment. The Golden Age of their people is over, and they were left clinging to what few bits of plasma and energy remain in the universe, huddled around them like homeless vagrants around a trash fire. To the Necrontyr, the universe was full of wonder and promise. To the C'Tan, it was a barren, desolate waste, a dying world.
His time is over ,,,,,,,,, they will join one singularity...ONE mind they will be good .......slaves of corpse emperor see the truth HIVE Mind is waiting with open arms .. orks are stupid you are smart... look at me we see the light
I've been following you since almost the start of your channel and I have to say it only grows in quality with each new episode. I have not missed a single video and by the emperor it always is a good time listening to our dearest friend explain the mysteries of the 40k universe.
Great episode! Answered a lot of questions that I had about this period. Specifically on how the Necrontyr still had short lives even though they had a star spanning empire.
Thank you! See I'd really like to know more about this time as well, I do like that they've kept this period quite ambiguous, but still I want to know about their old cities/colonies
Hi, have you considered also releasing these episodes as podcasts? I love these videos and would like to listen to them on the way to work if possible. Keep up the great work!
Magnificent. You have truly outdone yourself, Cryptek. Such a detailed report of our history, and our Great War against our ancient foes. It brings a metaphorical tear to my nonexistent eye.
As if ordaned by the Emperor himself - a most wonderful cermon! Captivating in all aspects, this has been by far, the best story telling ive experienced in a long while. THANK YOU!
Your content is on par with Luetin, I mean that on overall package. I'm sure he has more knowledge overall and he goes into more detail alot of the time. But I listen to like 8 or 9 channels and Luetin and yours is probably the best to watch, I always save them for when I'm laying in bed at night
Thank you! I do try to get these to be fairly polished by the end, and I appreciate the kind words. Oh and 100% I'm sure he knows more than me on the lore, certainly a legend in the whole loretuber space!

100%, I do aim to keep the actual plot/characters as lore accurate as possible, and I try to keep the colourful writing from straying too far from how they were presented by GW, but still, these vids are just a bit of fun, and people should check out the official books for the "true" version!
Yours is the only AI voiced channel i actually enjoy. I have one question though; do you write the script yourself by piecing togather existing 40k lore into a cohesive format, or do you use AI for that as well? Not talking bad about it, just genuinely curious.
Could the reason for the denial of help be that the home star was the home of a Catan? It was they who were able to bring down the old ones through the necron. Might the old ones have been leary to cross paths with the Catan and as a consequence the necrontyr were denied their deepest wish?
58:48 To be fair, consider this: If the Necrons had awakened just a few thousand years earlier, they would’ve preempted the bulk of the Tyranids’ arrival (or better yet, arrived soon after the First Tyrannic War). Just a few thousand years before that, they would’ve arrived in the wake of the devastation of the Horus Heresy. Slightly earlier, they would’ve arrived while the Imperium was tearing itself in half. Slightly earlier, the last great Ork empire would’ve been just defeated. Slightly earlier, humanity would still be a bunch of disparate kingdoms pre-Great Crusade. A few thousand years before, the galaxy would still be in the throes of Old Night. A few thousand years earlier, the Eldar would’ve been newly-sundered by the Eye of Terror. A few thousand years before that, the Eldar Empire would still be fat & decadent. So while the Necrons definitely arrived at a bad time, if they’d awakened a “mere” few (tens of) thousand years earlier, they would’ve hit golden opportunities to take the entire galaxy easily. And when compared to 65mil yrs of slumber, they weren’t that far off. 🤔

Have they rewritten the Necron lore? When I first read it, The Outsider went mad from eating too many C’Tan, which continued to speak to it, as a small part of them were still conscious.
It's odd that the C'tan went through so much trouble to trick the Necrontyr into biotransferrence. Even knowing how it turned out for the Necrons, there's no chance than any species would say no to it.
I don’t get how it makes any sense that the “Necrons couldn’t remain in the limelight while lesser species rose.” Seems that it’d be the easiest time to destroy them when none could hope to beat them.
Their souls were consumed, though And I be suspisous that there is no greater spirit(the one that reincarnates) or lessor spirig(that stays with body and fades away in time) as they probably ate those too Most likely the Necrons are just Aspects of themselves like Juju Zombies ....their memories are just a carbon copy of their long dead selves (the metal itself is alive thus took the imprinted memories but nothing else...kind of an underhanded raw deal)
Damn, necrontir being naive about soul stuff. C'tan stargods now soul vampires made by the hubris of the Necrontir. So brutal, but the perpetual hubris followed by the C'tan's continued ego belies the Necron ingenuity to wip stargod ass. I got a kick out of. The stargods being boundless forms that ate solar matter but the ego of the Necrontir put the souless stargods into a focused body. Doing such, allowed the stargods to manipulate the Necrontir to give the stargods some yummy souls. Id believe that if the C'tan were still at their apex, they solely would have eventually, would devour the entirety of the immarterium. Cutting the story of the galaxy short, humans history becoming a soulless mark and burning up like a candle flame

This channel is great
I like that you ended with a good night, sleep tight sort of thing. That kid's gonna have some nightmares, alright.
Naaah, a nice bedtime tale about an apocalyptic war never hurt anyone
This is amazing not enough stories from this period of time . Thank you
Thank you for listening
This made my day! Maybe it's finally time to take out my unfinished necron models and get to painting.
Glad to hear it! But yes, gotta paint everything!
I love these posts. Just sit back with a coffee and absorb the delightfully narrated lore. Fabulous.
The idea presenting it as a sermon just fits the universe and also helps me relax. Thank you
I love how the voiceover goes back and forth between pronouncing Necrontyr as "Necron-tear" and "Necron-tire"
I don't.

Indeed, the time scale of the C'tan is so far removed from any other faction/species that it's almost baffling.

Maybe it's a good thing the Necrons are always so angry, the whole galaxy might have been eaten if not for them
Exterminate! :P

Lots of folks talk about how the Krorks 'devolved,' but the Orks are absolutely thriving. That's evolution, pure and simple.
