【Memories from the Far Future】The Line (Eisenhorn & The Pontius)

[@knightofsquaretable1992]

This video finally made me buy Eisenhorn trilogy. It is a nice read.

[@daylncross3675]

I’ve enjoyed WH40k for over two decades now. I’ve waxed and waned in my attentions of the hobby (books/lore only) many times over the years, as many enthusiasts do so when enjoying something over significant periods of time. I still recommend this clip to new people who are interested. It’s a 40k Sherlock & Moriarty. The format is familiar, but the setting twist and context has changed. It’s like a new twist on and old favorite cocktail. Goes down smooth *insert evil wink*. Also-the voice acting here is just stunning. The growling, the sighs, the twinned voices as Glaw is speaking. Monstrously enjoyable. I really hope to see more work from this group moving forwards.

[@coletrain41]

My favorite part of their interactions will always be when Pontius asks Eisenhorn to describe the taste and texture of the wine he's drinking. Such a small scene, but i cant help loving the writing. Truly Dan Abnett at his best.

[@Chasseurhost1]

By the Emperor could this be even better ? Your music is making this audio worth listening a thousand times over !

[@OfficioAudiorum]

Thank You!

[@ViewTube_Dan]

It's simple mathematics why. Our brain works that way.. we like it more the more parts of our brain are active while learning information.. which is why school is so annoying and readng and listening is boring without music

[@truckwarrior5944]

Eisenhorn sure knows hot to cross the line with a truck.

[@Sinewmire]

The trilogy is full of moments where you look at what Gregor has done, and think "how is that that we've come so far... and that it makes perfect sense?"

[@truckwarrior5944]

@@Sinewmire Well it's not a triology anymore, it's a tetralogy since 2018 ^^

[@OfficioAudiorum]

Yes, though there wasn't enough Gregor in it.:D

[@Sinewmire]

@@truckwarrior5944 when Mostly Harmles came out it was labelled 'book five of the increasingly inaccurately named "Hitch-hiker's Guide To The Galaxy Trilogy"' So let's go with that 😉

[@Alaztor878]

@@Sinewmire I'm just scared that Dann Abnett will trigger the "no turning back" for him, I mean... Quixos accomplished many great deeds using the warp, only to forfeit into madness thinking by sacrificing billions would save trillions, and being felled by Eisenhorn

[@v10l3t40]

Longworth knew how to make such an intimidating voice for a villain like Glaw. Him and Andrew Wincott are the best

[@MrEvan312]

I've listened to this several times today already, Longworth's voice is right up there with Mark Strong's voice for just fitting so damn well into the 40k setting, and how he can read two such distinctly different characters in this scene.

[@zachsmith1676]

perhaps... but comparing Toby's voice for Gregor with Mark Strong's version (in the Eisenhorn: Xenos game) Mark's voice is letdown... probably due to the weird pauses between bits of dialogue... dialogue bit #1 pause pause dialogue bit #2 and so on... seemed too robotic to be a natural cadence of conversation

[@swoleypepperoni7593]

Just finished reading the Eisonhorn trilogy the other day. What an amazing read.

[@OfficioAudiorum]

Indeed, it is my favourite non-astartes 40K story.

[@reecefraser1762]

toby longworths voice is just so good, i could listen to him narrate every book in 40k and still come right back for more

[@MinedTank]

I have now found my favorite source for Dark Heresy background music

[@antonsokolov4876]

The Eisenhorn series is so good

[@InsanityTrials]

Just finished The Magos. What a fantastic series and a great protagonist. Thanks for making this

[@_x_X_shal0w_g00se_X_x_]

This deserves more atttention. we desire more knoledge

[@Metalwraith031]

Just finished the Magos audiobook while painting. This is sending shivers along my spine, well done.

[@OfficioAudiorum]

Thank You!

[@paulkouk6629]

I come back every now and then to relisten to this amazing masterpiece. Dan Abnett's writing, the artwork, the voice acting and the incredible music. All coming together to reach new heights Just amazing. It's criminal how little views this has!

[@UrbanArmada]

The voice modulation on Pontius reminds me of Darth Malak for some reason. Such an amazing scene.

[@asonofhoruslegionary]

That cliffhanger left me wanting more.

[@jordanjensen2514]

Awesome again, I hope we see more of these from you

[@OfficioAudiorum]

Thank You! I intend to do more indeed. Mechadendrites crossed they won't get yeeted.

[@MrGruntles]

I picked up the trilogy the day after listening to this. Excellent so far.

[@redeye3869]

I can’t wait for this scene to be adapted in the tv show.

[@rileyhaywood5789]

Just finished the entire inquisitor series... pontious glore nearly turned me chaos!

[@superlurkeable]

you sir are DA bomb! Omnissiah bless you for the amazing music you make and for these awesome videos!

[@OfficioAudiorum]

Thank You so much!

[@Error-mn4el]

this wouldnt have happened if he invested in Servitor Inc.

[@samirrokush4355]

True masterpiece.

[@niks3632]

this is awesome

[@yojon4905]

Bravo another banger

[@KudiGamer]

masterful

[@JamesLaserpimpWalsh]

Excellent job. Maybe a whatsiscalled again? Master cut? Of all of a particular character. Like you have done with Sinderman in the last vid and Eisenhorn here.. More or less. I keep trying to find the bits of Ayonid Thele. He's totally my favorite HH Character. Hands down. Thanks for the vids.

[@OfficioAudiorum]

Thank You! That would be an incredible amount of work and most likely get the attention of the chaos gods of copyright!

[@JamesLaserpimpWalsh]

@@OfficioAudiorum Fair nuff.

[@JamesLaserpimpWalsh]

@@OfficioAudiorum I might have a go then. Maybe try reading it out. I am a horse riding instructor so my enunciation has to be on point on a windy day in a field in the pi55ing rain. Cheers anyway consider me subbed sir !

[@zachsmith1676]

@@JamesLaserpimpWalsh to be careful... don't want to accidentally kill someone because you unknowingly spoke a word of Enuncia (Words that are Unwords... can't exactly remember how it was described in the ravenor books but even a piece of a word of Enuncia is enough to do damage... like make someone violently ill and vomit their stomach contents out)

[@ViewTube_Dan]

The line.. ..between mankind and man unkind.. I think of that a lot

[@newtonia-uo4889]

utterly profound isn't it, the line between good and evil, where is it, does it even exist? what do you think?

[@church_world_domination9357]

Prescribed knowledge LOL sounds like heresy with extra steps to me

[@ImperialCommissarRikart]

So this is why the inquisition massacred my regiment

[@ViewTube_Dan]

Why do I know his voice so well? He voiced a lot... I know the voice I think from games too..

[@UrbanArmada]

Its Toby Longworth, he voices a lot of 40k books and some games.

[@AzraelSoulHunter]

Will you ever do a music for Dark Coil? Maybe a music for Fire Caste that fits Phaedra. If you didn't read them I HIGHLY recommend them.

[@OfficioAudiorum]

I have never heard of those, but will check out, thanks!

[@JamesLaserpimpWalsh]

Thought it said Eisenstein not Eisenhorn. I blame the whiskey.

[@OfficioAudiorum]

That was a good book too:)

[@tuor8087]

Jason Isaacs, would make a great Eisenhorn.

[@jamescollinge5043]

'Everyone is damned. Mankind is damned.' This hits hard given what we know about the sea of souls. So much of the imperium is built around keeping mankind blissfully unaware of two truths: a) there is scientific proof of the afterlife b) that afterlife is ceaseless torture and pain and makes no distinctions for who you were in life, your morality, or your loyalty to the emperor. Literally the only way to escape that fate is to suck up to the torturers and hope that they'll turn you into one of their horrific, insane number with zero guarantee that theyll hold their end of the bargain.
