[@obrasilius6733]

I must point this, that this channel had three distinct types of videos, first: the narrations of stories that didn´t exist with the intention to be narrated, we see some of the more ancient tales and videos in these categories. The second is stories that were made to be narrated, however, those stories usually simply couldn't translate the sentiment the original author intended to its full, it is akin to a direct translation from a language to another. However, here, we have something more, the new type, here, we have both the author and the narrator as one. Vox is at the point that he can write incredible pieces of fiction, but also to translate it as the author intended in its fullest. This is a turning point in terms of quality of narration, this is where I can see Paul making his brightest works and best narrations. The future of this channel is bright, and we are all here to witness this new great era. 🤘

[@AVoxintheVoid]

Such an amazingly well constructed message. Thankyou so much brasilius. I know what you mean by the second point but I hope I did your story justice though...

I'm not exaggerating when I say this story was more exciting, grotesque and enjoyable than pretty much any Black Library novel I've ever read. I love these kinds of stories. They truly show that anyone can take a piece of the 40K universe and make it their own, and this story fits perfectly. Very good job.

I genuinely didn't expect any ending other than either him fully falling to chaos or getting caught. I really thought this would end with him ending as the original guy that fell upon his bowie knife in the first episode, for a moment there. This, however, was a much more pleasant ending. Which isn't too realistic, but I'm happy all the same. R.I.P. Solomon. You weren't a real one, but you died a real one.

[@ChaoticVoicesofAndreas]

I am left hollow after this. This trilogy was an absolute treat to listen to. Beautifully written, wonderfully narrated. The emotion you put in this absolutely hit home. Thank you so much for this. Mandatory listening for anyone who wants to write about Slaanesh and the resolver of average people.

[@KnifeCursed]

His body consumed by fire clutching a murderous demonette wearing the skin of his wife. All in a vain attempt to escape from the guilt of cowardice that consumed him from within. Slaanesh would revel in that oh so delicious irony and the tragedy of it as it devoured his soul. Please write more chaos Vox! You have a talent for it. I’ve enjoyed this one immensely.

[@galenlovejoy9316]

I do like how this is actually a pretty realistic story. There are plenty of stories of people during WW2 (soldiers and civilians) being forced to work with a hostile invading army just to survive. This often meant that these people had to participate in some pretty horrible acts. Of course, none of them engaged in demonic rituals, but there were plenty of people who, say, participated in Nazi atrocities because they thought it was the only way to survive.
