[@gideonhorwitz9434]

Even now I can picture Loken during the siege of Terra His battle plate white as the moon the black wolf head with its yellow eyes beaming for all to see sowing terror in its sight. hHs waste adorned with past battle honors along with grenades and ammo packs and on his chest plate gleaming in the blasts of battle a golden two headed Aquila a gift from the Sigilight at the request of the emperor.

[@muhmmadmuneeb219]

After everything that happened to him, even with the honeyed offers of horus, he still remained a loyal servant of the emperor....truly beautiful.

Daaaaaamn that last line is soooo cold, "I was, it was called the Great Crusade" BroOOO

[@Wafflemarine22]

It had to take one incredible character to start off the Horus Heresy. From an interview with Graham it seemed like they never planned it to be more then like 8 to 10 books. They maybe thought Loken was going to be the focus the entire way though. Loken like many of the Imperiums greatest was nothing ever special, No real great talent in anything unique(not saying a Captain rank is minor), but he was duty bound above any sense of personal glory. Yet what he did and his voice would reverberate though the millennia.

[@Fullgrym]

TBH he was one of the 4 of the most inner circle of the whole legion, and a company captain - he was far and above one of the greatest legionnaires within one of the greatest legions. He was far from ordinary. Saul Tarvitz could be called ordinary, but Loken was exceptional from the very outset. And yet he wasn't infallible. For example he was responsible for the trampling of dozens of humans when they brought the wounded Horus back on the ship and he didn't really feel any regret (it was quite justified in his eyes). That makes him a balanced and very real/human-like/believable character and that's why we like him so much.

[@willzer6915]

And yet, if it wasn't for Saul Tarvitz, the loyalists, may not be so loyal anymore! Of course, in the grand scheme of things, he really was ordinary, but still, ordinary people in warhammer 40k can make a huge difference. Wasn't it a normal everyday soldier, that gave the emperor the mindset to kill horus?

[@gamechanger8908]

​@@willzer6915Euphrati Keeler was just your ordinary remembrancer, who was a flawed individual. Yet she was venerated as a saint for being seen as the definitive founder of the Imperial Cult.

[@willzer6915]

@gamechanger8908 exactly my point! She was probably a better example, as she did more after her initial introduction, tarvitz was killed at istvaan 3 , so no glory really....or was he killed lol no no I'm sure he was!

[@AidC96]

Honestly epic video, Garviel doesn’t get enough love from the 40k community, he’s my absolute favourite. Amazing

[@AidC96]

Also it’d be pretty epic to see a video on Saturnine, Garviel dressed in Luna wolf armour facing down his old friend now enemy little Horus

[@chinmaymenon887]

@@AidC96 the best line is when Loken says "You always were the wrong Horus" to Aximand before Loken cut him to pieces.

[@samuelspry6955]

Never have I been so heartbroken for a character, in a genre that tells you in its first breath of how much it cares for its own creations, to see suffer the grimdarkness of the latter 31st millennium. When war was at its most prevalent, this most skilled and martial prepared of Space Marines, unquestioned in his loyalties- died, only to come back under the monicher of a three headed hound of hell, and become the lynch pin for the greater future of the universe.

2 things: 1. Happy 1 year anniversary to this amazing channel Andy. 2. Seeing the chad loken still at it is an awesome thing, if there was any other bits of lore on the luna wolves I would've loved to explored, it's definitely the one luna wolf who awakened from a stasis pod Millenias after the heresy happened and left to go do....we don't know but something big lol, via flesh tearers coming aboard and the wolf taking one of their ships to go do important shit. (Potential secret luna wolves successor loyalist chapter confirmed for future lore perhaps?!)

[@n543576]

Sometimes i just re-listen to the first 2 Audiobooks for the Heresy series, it truly was a different time and vibe where Humans and Space Marines just chilled and talked to each other. Garvel and Euphrate's sorta kinda relationship thing they were having was the most adorable thing ever (until fucking Samus) Garvel's friendship with the other remembrancer (can't remember his name) its so different from the 40k books of now where the Astartes are so emotionally detached from humanity its rare a joke let alone friendships is made between the Marine and Humans.

[@TOUGHEYES]

You know what'd be the greatest Full Circle? Its something that GW has to earn, now, it can't be ill-executed at all. Up into the 42nd Millennium, where the battle goes full pitch across the Galaxy, but the Sons of the Emperor return and each of the Chapters from their progeny push back against the Xenos hordes and all that's left is to finish the fight with Chaos. As Abaddon goes out of his way to do greater evils, the retaliation begins. The forces of Chaos get sought out by an emboldened Imperium, and there, holding a Power Sword and Bolter with the Warp Force of the Emperor's Will behind it.... Is Garviel Loken, staring down Abaddon and full-blooded enough to take down a goddamn Chaos God.
