Oh man this is so good. When the guard showed up I could feel the shock and surprise and my mouth widened for a second! I know this is a grimdark story but I couldn't help but cheer on the guard in my head! But alas, you stay so true to the lore and there's little chance they'd ever win against a greater deamon, I can also see the changes now in solomon as his character develops, although I think I know where it's going, and it isn't towards the emperors light. Can't wait for the next part.

[@AVoxintheVoid]

That was the response I was hoping for! I'm glad it translated that way. Halfway through writing the third part now so you'll just have to wait and see where this tale goes 👍

[@Angelof236]

when the tiger striped sentinel blew up I lost all hope

[@louditalian1962]

BS. The guard kill those filthy things all the time.

There’s something very satisfying/cathartic about listening to the music of heretics getting purged by the Guard.

[@ksrknwht300klls]

I am now wondering how many like Solomon are "loyal" servants of the Emperor in the battalion

[@spottedslash4256]

Quite literally hiding in there armor. Those eye sockets in their helmets, windows to the Madness.

[@xavis_dad]

It's probably dudes like this who end up becoming high ranking Inquisitors. Dude is pretty resilient to the taint of the Warp. Slanesh anyway.

[@Mikesulli90]

​@xavis_dad considering it ends with him continuing to march with cultists after reminiscing about how pleasurable it felt to murder an imperial guardsman after taking the bait of a demon near the start of the first chapter, I don't think he's resistant to anything here.

[@Ironbattlemace]

Holy shit. Just 5/5. This captures Slaneesh ultra good. Best damn writing and narration job in years.

[@AVoxintheVoid]

I am totally humbled by this message. Thankyou so much my friend. Hope you enjoy part three!

[@ElPorpoise]

My lord, how are you this on point with Chaos/Slannesh? This is some of the best Slannesh representation I’ve ever read! Great work!

The Absolute constant state terror Solomon feels witnessing all of this, and his inherent cowardice compounding him to survive while also I belive driving him mad and slowly corrupting him. Not to mention the first person he killed was a guardsman. Yeah he's on his way to the warp. Thank you soo much for such great work , really transports you into 40k horror.

This was horrific. In a good way! I have never seen Slaanesh and it’s followers in a more terrifying light. Well done.

[@jinpachibobochan3532]

"Desperation spread like a quick-acting nerve gas" I love this channel cuz the descriptions are so creative! It gives the scene more life and thus makes it more enjoyable to listen to. The narrator also has the perfect voice for Warhammer audiobooks, sounding like some veteran guardsmen, telling grimdark stories.

[@AVoxintheVoid]

I'll take that as a double compliment as I wrote and narrated this story 😎 cheers boss!!

[@brooklynkeith2877]

I listened to this 3 times in a row everything is so detailed i didnt want to miss anything, its like im right there with Solomon..... im worried he might be liking the twisted ecstacy Slannesh provides too much to come back, his sanity may be to far gone especially since his first body was a guardsman. Then again *All The Gods Are Dead* ... im hyped for part lll for sure.

THIS IS SO DARK AND SOOOOOOO GOOD

[@mcchicken1849]

You really do a great job of describing action scenes. Played out like a movie in my head, very well done, can't wait for part 3! Interesting to see the characters progression from the start of the first episode to the end of this one, can see (what I at least assume to be) the corrupting powers of Chaos taking its effect on him.

[@InsectSpray]

I was going to ask who wrote this, but then I read the description. Well done! This is fantastic! I am very much an Imperial fanboy but I am quite happy they didn't win the engagement in the forest and deprive me of this wonderous writing. How very hedonisticly slaneshi of me...

[@AVoxintheVoid]

Thankyou very much! I'm having a lot of fun telling this story. I thought I'd pepper in some hope along the way...just to snatch it away again 😎

[@KillTeamHungary]

Few more of these and you will not need us anymore. Great job Paul!

[@AVoxintheVoid]

Cheers brother Hungary! I'll always need dudes like you my friend

[@Nyctonaut]

Just noticed this one is an original. It's absolutely amazing. I'm a listener to many different creepasta narration channels and other horror channels for years and years. I also do narration myself from time to time. I'm a massive lifelong horror fan and recently becoming obsessed with 40k. And i do have to say this series is one of the most engaging and well written stories I've listened to in a long time. Great work. Just finished part 2 and am about to lay down and start part 3. Really, fantastic job, my friend. Obviously keep up your amazing narrations, but also, DONT STOP WRITTING!

[@TheSorrowOfTheReaper]

I loved how visceral you described the action scenes with the Guard suddenly appearing and poor Solomon slowly succumbing to Chaos... looking forward to part 3!

[@pseudomastix2916]

Finally, the wait was killing me.

[@davebowman9000]

This is a beautiful work of art! When you get to a 100k followers, you should definitely submit something to the Black Library. Loved every second of it!

[@AVoxintheVoid]

Thanks David! That should be my challenge for sure.

[@lolwtfbbq111]

[@AVoxintheVoid]

Yeah this is my own story 🙂

[@SonOfTegz]

I’ll be a bit less broad with my compliments this time: the choice of focus on the gore and barbarism is perfect enough to push your mind to grotesque thoughts but not outright disgusting in its imagery, not to mention every action of Solomon feels so real, you can understand his thoughts his actions, how his body is running on instinct while his mind hides away behind the iron mask. It’s so perfect in its choice of description, the right stuff so you know where you are and what the place is but not to much to spoil the image it creates in your mind. This whole series is just so there, I can’t say I’ve found a single issue with it it just feels so enveloping.

[@roymcroberts8683]

Man I love it. You never fail to crush it every time. By the end of the story every time I'm on the edge of my chair.

I cannot get over the battle near the end, the efficiency of the guard, quickly disintegrating into fear versus the ecstatic brutality of the cultists and Demons. This is how I always imagined Slanneshi Demons fighting, not with bloodthirsty rage like Khornate Demons but with elegance and grace. A truly amazing battle description Vox

[@archangelofstories5565]

@@AVoxintheVoid I've always had my own view on how Chaos Demons fight. Khornate Demons would be blood crazed bezerkers, Nurgle Demons would be slow and deliberate like Death itself, Tzeentch Demons would be cunning sorcerers and Slanneshi Demons would be just like this, fast, majestic and brutal, as if they were dancing more than fighting. I won't lie when I say that this story has helped inspire me to get back into writing and the fight has given me inspiration in regards to how to write a battle description

Great work!!! I realy feel sorry for the guy. Even if he would throw down his weapon and surrender, he would only be burned as a heretic. As the inquisitorial saying goes: "Innocence proves nothing!" Although you hardly cant call him innocent any more after killing a guardsman. Even if done in self defence.

[@AVoxintheVoid]

@@AVoxintheVoid You did a great job with that. I probably would not have mustered the strengh to go through that ordeal for seven days, like Solomon did. In a way his cowardice turned out to be a virtue as it kept him going till he got a chance to redeem himself. May he rest at the Emperors side.
