When I first got into 40k, I was drawn to Chaos by the idea of them representing some kind of “dual nature”. What soured me on Chaos was just how 1-dimensional it tends to be. I wanted to see the side of Khorne that I was promised, the side that despised sorcery as the last resort of weaklings, the side that valued the skulls of mighty opponents slain in worthy combat, the side that scorned base treachery and hungered for his champions to demonstrate their worthiness through their own capabilities. And far more often, I just found the same tired meme of BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD SKULLS FOR THE SKULL THRONE. Butchers are boring and predictable. But warriors…warriors can be so much more nuanced. So when I see a tale of a War Hound, awakening from millennia of unthinking slaughter and deciding to be reasonably angry about being sold a false bill of goods, I am *very* interested.

[@rafaelcobossanchez5778]

"a War Hound, awakening from millennia of unthinking slaughter and deciding to be reasonably angry" - That was as hilarious as it is true

[@mortenasmussen637]

Well mate its like all followers of religion's in IRL, like the Chaos follows in warhammer 40k... No one really gets the message

[@Leisurelee53]

Blood for who? Skulls for what? I remember that line from the heresy novels where Angron is railing at Gulliman about "courage and honor, courage and honor!" Korne sells the illusion of noble combat. Testing of martial skill and the nobility of rejection of all but the strength of self. The irony to me has always been that the lie is told almost alongside these justifications: "He cares not from whence the blood flows. Only that it does"

[@boneman-calciumenjoyer8290]

Reminds me of an old black crusade character I had. His name was Krack and he had an unfavourable meet up with a necron deathmark once, this encounter somehow still failed to kill him. Long story short, he became lucid, no brain fog from the nails anymore, no rage, no bloodlust or pain... just silence. Ended up working as a mercenary for a roguetrader later on. He was my only character who got a "happy end" like that.

[@dub4sam95]

Listening to Crixus slay the terminator makes me wonder how many World Eaters have come back from the influence of the Butcher's Nails and killed other World Eaters - Die like a warrior, while killing other traitors as a last act of absolution before being cut down. Most would be too far gone under the Nail's influence to care but it makes me think that maybe Crixus isn't the only one trying to right an old mistake. Great work always to Vox and the Author! ⚔️

Well if you like the taste of cordite there’s a great old story from the 2nd ed Space Wolves codex where Ragnar kills a Carnifex by stuffing a grenade right down its screaming gob! Ah, Good times.

[@walterTbaggins]

Love it. At first I felt like Krixus' change of heart(s) was a bit abrupt, but after giving it some thought I quite like it. The World Eaters are impulsive and unpredictable by nature and that's not going to change no matter whether they're loyal or traitor, so a snap decision makes sense. I'm excited to see if the change is permanent though. I know the Gaunts Ghosts novels established the idea of "the armour of contempt" - that you can resist Chaos just by despising it enough - but to be able to reject Chaos AFTER having fallen and after 10,000 years of service to Khorne, in which most of that time was spent literally in the Warp... Well it would be pretty impressive. And it would open up a whole lot of very interesting possibilities. I know you're probably thinking the redemption of the Alpha Legion and the Thousand Sons, but consider what it might mean for the radical factions of the Inquisition - having proof that a person can immerse themselves in the power of Chaos then just choose to turn away from it would be a pretty convincing argument for allowing the use of Chaos as a weapon by the Imperium...

[@lucyhoelscher273]

World Eaters are really cool. One of my favorite traitor legions. Kharn, and whoever that WE is in the novel Furious Abyss (forgot his name), are especially great. When World Eaters, even shortly after Nails implantation, fight, you can see the honor behind the frenzied insanity. I personally can pretty easily figure out what the Emperor was trying to do with the War Hounds, most likely something like the Vylka Fenrika (sp., sorry), but without the spontaneous lycanthropy. The loss of the World Eaters' honour, and for favour with a primarch who 1) considered himself a dead man walking after he'd been prevented from committing suicide by massed arms fire, and 2) had no goddamn clue how to implement any tactics above the complexity of a fire team, and besides didn't think such things were worthy of his attentions, is just some extra awful on top of this five course banquet of horrible. Not even talking about the mass implantation of the Nails, which is even sadder.

I've lost count of how many times I've listened to this excellent story and suburb narration and I have to say even though I absolutely despise Angron for turning on the emperor I still love the world eaters and can truly sympathize with them as I suffer from explosive rage syndrome and there are no words to describe what it feels like to be fully consumed with all encompassing rage.. I can truly think of no worse fate then having to live in perpetual and unceasing rage for eternity.

[@lucyhoelscher273]

I can guess what it's like to entirely lose yourself in fury. I have Generalized Anxiety Disorder, and I've been submerged in fear before. I'd imagine it's similar to what you said, but colored differently, if that makes sense. Plus, fight reaction for rage, flight reaction for anxiety.

[@Doomseer]

@@lucyhoelscher273 Yes you're right it's very much like you've been taken under by these massive waves of raw emotion and as you sink further and further down into the depths you don't even think to fight it cause it has enveloped you so fully nothing else matters but that rage which seems to permeate through your entire body like hot posion. Honestly when I have an episode like that I cease to be who I really am and instead become a person without even an ounce of love or empathy inside and as someone who is naturally very loving and empathetic it is truly nightmarish to such a degree that it leaves me feeling hollow and cold for days afterwards due to the experience.

[@theliterarymercenary1699]

@@AVoxintheVoid To add on for clarity, Crixus doesn't fight to save the Imperium or protect its people; that's something of a happy accident. He fights because he recognizes that Angron turned them all into rabid dogs. His rage is that he allowed himself to be put on a leash, and wielded as a weapon to prove his loyalty to someone who didn't care then, and is beyond caring now. That he willingly let himself be bound as a slave to the Red Angel, and then to Khorne, as a perversion of everything his father told them he stood for. There is no saving what the World Eaters have become, including himself. All that remains is to put them down. Also, if folks want to see more of him (as some seem to), I was considering keeping Crixus in reserve as an occasional walk-on/extra in future tales... where he might be just as much a danger to our protagonists as he is to those they're fighting against.

[@bearbenton5945]

Hey man, I love this kind of music, but I live in the middle of nowhere, southern USA lol. What kind of music is that? I love it, it makes me feel powerful and happy.

[@AVoxintheVoid]

@@bearbenton5945 hey dude, I would say it falls under the progressive metal/djent genre! I can give you some names of good bands if you want?

I think you missed the point of the story, mate.

Amazing choice for the background music really drives home the out of control horror of the nails.

When I found this piece I knew it HAD to be in this narration. What a track

[@brucedavidson9499]

6:50 action starts

[@stepans20]

Absolutely lovely. Reccomended it to the other 2 dudes i know who are into warhammer.

[@AVoxintheVoid]

Many thanks for sharing the love!

God fucking damn man

[@AVoxintheVoid]

Hopefully this is a good 'God fucking damn'? 😎

[@guilldea]

@@AVoxintheVoid lol obviously, the narration, SFX and soundtrack perfectly conveyed that 'God.. Fucking.. Damn!' feeling to me

[@thewolfpoet]

I enjoyed this one, not quite as much as the first World Eaters vid (something about the way you narrated that one really stuck with me) but still a good story (the author's other work - Almost - was also great). I'd just also like to say that I'm so glad you find such good-quality fan-fics to narrate. Don't get me wrong, I don't mind you reading old fluff pieces, but it seems like you do your best work with your fan-fic vids. Finding decent 40k fanfiction can be so frustrating at times and its nice to see a channel willing to host fanfic content and that its legit top-tier content. Keep it up and may your channel prosper!

[@AVoxintheVoid]

Thankyou for the awesome message wolf. I've been very blessed with the quality of fan fictions I find or have been sent! Hopefully I'll work with a small team of selected writers so I can get to the point where I can leave the fluff pieces behind!

[@bearbenton5945]

Love from across the pond, brother. You're channel will explode in a fashion that would make even the World Eaters jealous. I'll be here for it all, friend. Around here, we don't have alot of warhammer fans and I LOVE warhammer. I read all the books, want to collect the minis, and love listening to your lore vids. Yeah in the rural country where I live, hopefully it'll get more poplular. WAAAAAGHHH!!!

[@AVoxintheVoid]

Thankyou for this awesome message Bear. Where abouts do you live if you don't mind me asking?

[@bearbenton5945]

@@AVoxintheVoid No problem at all. I live in northwest Florida on the panhandle. The geography is similar to the swamps of Louisiana but the water is emerald clear at the beaches an in the springs (look up Morrison Springs in Florida! That's right down the road). Good fishing and hunting. Are you from England? I have a neighbor that's English. Cool guy, has some sweet motorcycles and good taste in beer :)

My thanks!

[@davebowman9000]

Holy wow!!! This was AWESOME!!! Hope there's more to this! This concept of a demi-loyalist World Eater is something GW should really explore! And your narration gave it a magnificent highlight! Lovely soundtrack, may I have the source for it? Sorry I missed the live. Was asleep.

[@AVoxintheVoid]

Thanks David, no worries about missing the live stream, glad you enjoyed what you heard. It is a really interesting concept isn't it?? The music is monstrosity by Icarus.

[@TheSorrowOfTheReaper]

Wow, I loved this! Every single one of your videos is a delicious treat.

[@AVoxintheVoid]

Being a metal head myself I thoroughly enjoyed editing this beast 😜

[@TheSorrowOfTheReaper]

@@AVoxintheVoid Amen to that! The moment when the killing spree began with the guitar riffs had me headbanging in my chair. World Eaters in general are metal as fuck 🤘

[@gelwocuthbert1360]

Educational video excellent and wholesome

[@Tardenglobe2346]

😆😁

[@mcchicken1849]

Great story, it really helped portray the World Eaters relationship with their father. Also loved the descriptiveness of it, how their armor was damaged, or stained with ash and blood. Really helps you picture that the World Eaters are exactly that, the eaters of worlds, bringing only destruction and carnage in their wake. The music was also a very nice and welcomed touch, it makes the action scenes a lot more exciting. I don't know if you've been asked this before (wouldn't be surprised), but whats your favorite legion? Apart of me is guessing the World Eaters due to your musical past. The World Eaters are second place for me after the Iron Warriors. Keep up the great work!

[@AVoxintheVoid]

Thankyou for the kind comment brother chicken! 😜 I've always liked chaos marines but never really collected. I would say the more brutal the better as I'm a bit of a gore hound so world eaters are up there. Every time I research the factions before I do a narration I seem to fall in love with them! Iron warriors, night lords, death guard, blood angels, Ogryns. I can't seem to settle on one faction!

[@mcchicken1849]

​@@AVoxintheVoid Seems your affinity to Chaos marines has been picked up by your daughter. Chaos corruption truly does spread at a alarmingly rate... If she draws a picture for you one day that opens up a Warp portal unleashing a horde of Nurglings into your house (good luck getting those stains out of the carpet after), or if she tries to murder you with a chainaxe (blood is also hard to get out of carpet, especially if your dead), you only have yourself to blame. I have yet get into mini's myself either, but I plan on doing so one day. Also, can relate to the "more brutal the better" sentiment. I don't blame you for having a hard time settling on a faction, they are all pretty cool for all their different unique reasons and aesthetics. Took me a while to finally settle on the Iron Warriors. Ironically, my first favorite faction was the Black Templars. My love of their attrition warfare tactics, and aesthetics as well as relating to their bitterness was what did it for me in the end.

This was a very nice to listen to lol, if you can find one about the Legion of the Damned to listen to, that be great. Overall this was very exceptional
