Warhammer 40k Audio In The Grim Darkness By Guy Haley

[@johnroberts7686]

This is one of my favorite stories. It makes Cawl so "human". His childlike enthusiasm for discovery.

[@vextay7199]

I imagine cawl just being a head and a bunch of doc oc robot arms with individual tools on the end, and his robe keeps them in a human looking shape.

[@LMGunslinger]

Cawl selects a warm voice... Enter the crypt keeper.

[@ABorderPrince]

hahhahha

[@TheRealBelisariusCawl]

I must remember to discuss word choice with remembrancer Haley. His overuse of the word monster is hurtful. I may be a 10,000 year old genius with an archeotech laden multipedal battle tank for a body but I have emotion cogitators just like the next man

You are not a monster. Your are the only clever man on Mars

[@wreckintonwreckwreck4433]

The boy looked at Cawl: "What kind of thing are you", Cawl: "A very good question"...

[@ABorderPrince]

good moment

[@swedeulfson3893]

When Cawl was giving Decimus his “choice” ... I was getting a real Matrix “take the blue pill or red pill” vibe. What a future Felix has in store. It’s not every day you’re gifted a planet. Too much fun.

[@Duppyman695]

Were not in Cansas anymore

[@goliath1179]

Of course Decimas was gonna be a Space Marine, he has a name that sounds like it came out of the Rise and Fall of the Roman Empire. Oh shit, I just realized Cawl called the UltraMarines a Legion, not the modern chapter that they are in the 41st millennium. Damn Cawl is an old son of a cyberdong.

[@WASDLeftClick]

He’s so old that he actually worked on the original project to create the Space Marines back during the Unification Wars. Back then he was more human than machine and only had one personality. Hence why he was chosen by Guilliman, he had the knowledge base to make the Primaris.

[@maxstr]

This guy is good, it sounds like an audiobook

[@ABorderPrince]

thanks!

[@shanegrimes3455]

It is an audiobook

[@maxstr]

Shane Grimes I meant it sounds like a professionally done audiobook you’d find on Audible or something.

[@rowdyzack5914]

Honestly, its better than most audiobooks

@@maxstr don't worry Bro, there is always one....at least, it seems to be the missing addendum to "death and taxes..."

[@MizantropMan]

Cawl: "I don't like to lie." Notice how he says that he "doesn't LIKE to lie", not that he doesn't at all. Classic Cawl. Felix is getting a ton of spotlight despite not even having a model, although I haven't read "Plague Wars" yet, only "Dark Imperium", so he might just die there and that's it.

[@TheRealBelisariusCawl]

Keep up the insults and you’ll find yourself employed as a servitor running the Cawl Inferior’s twitter account.

[@doomguy9049]

Those two books are worth a read in my opinion. I don't want to spoil them but Felix does make an appearance in one and also Belisaruis Cawl: The Great Work.

[@MizantropMan]

@@doomguy9049 What "two books"? Third one isn't out yet.

[@doomguy9049]

@@MizantropMan I misread the part of your comment where you said you read Dark Imperium for whatever reason and thought you hadn't read either of those two books mentioned.

[@Motorius9000]

Great reading once again. I wasn't aware either that this short novella existed. Feels great to learn more about Felix's past. I really hope that Primus gets a similar novella. I want to know how his primarisation process failed in the end and left him to be the "Frankenstein Marine"

[@ABorderPrince]

yeah exactly

[@kevlonk]

You know what the scary thing is? Listening to this, I can see Cawl and Fabius Bile getting along quite well.

[@Tikkie-D]

I have listened to every book your narrated so far. You just keep getting better and I really enjoy these readings. Especially the last little tid bits at the end

[@Thecando]

This is one of my favorite stories and it was a pleasure to listen to again. Thank you :)

nice touch

[@Duppyman695]

Nobody play that kid Bathoven

[@thetsarofall8666]

This having been my first time reading(listening) to anything cawl related, he's suprisingly "human" for one of if not the oldest tech priest around. Hearing him mention how the emperor knew better than current tech-priests, almost wistfully, makes me wonder how they got along.

[@ABorderPrince]

well the great work is the novel to read to understand him. he uses different personalities

[@NapGod]

Cawl is one of my favorite characters in 40k. The Great Work completely changed my opinion of the primaris thing. Excellent job on the video as usual.

[@jamesnurgle6368]

It's not brave to be afraid of being afraid.

I want a tshirt that says "I am not Friedich" "I know" made me kinda misty eyed over the best bromance of the 2010's

Awesome story. Really gripped me! Thanks allot Aborder Prince. I listen everyday, only wished the story(ies) where longer!

yeah adds a lot

[@Vortklox]

Omg!! Perfect. Great to see light shed on the past of felix. Thank you

cheers

[@brooklynkeith2877]

wow that is my dream ....i have tried to sculpt my body, when i was a young kid i was scrawny but i worked out tirelessly and tried to become the best me i could be..... Felix is destined to be the prototype primaris? what i would give to be even given the chance at something like that. You do wonders bringing stories like this to life Border Prince i really enjoy your work and have always been fasinated by space marines. i wish i could be one honestly. Keep doing this great work i really enjoy it. Cheers bro from Brooklyn New York

[@ABorderPrince]

ahh i wouldnt wish for that man its not you and the horrors that go into it are too much to contemplate. its not just about getting swole its a breaking and creating of a whole new person

Imagine the WUT on the boy's face after hearing Guilliman's name :D

[@BriarLeaf00]

I've heard a lot of hate about Cawl in the past few years amongst the fans. For me, he's easily one of the most interesting characters of the modern setting, and one whose exploits I eagerly await with the fast approaching 9th edition.

Dang ol’ primaris marines, I tell ya what.

[@bluebuda8170]

This was badass. I know nobody likes BC but he's pretty cool. I think he's going to change the landscape a lil bit but not all of it. I look for the Imperium to start innovating at least some

[@ABorderPrince]

yeah i like him now the novels have made him much better

[@spike.strat1318]

The great work will change that very quickly.

[@jonbauml225]

[@phillipthompson5937]

I just stumbled across your work ABorder Prince and I've been bingeing it ever since. I think it would be fuckin awesome if you and Oculus Imperia did a collaboration on a project (sure I'mnot the first to say this). Bloody brilliant that'd be!

[@ABorderPrince]

ahh yeah can look into it

[@ebenezer1690]

Bravo!

[@mharizsaifuddin7059]

I have yet to read The Great Work. But Cawl doesnt sound like the usual Mechanicus, he sound more human..

[@jajordan2106]

To be fair the usual mechanicus cannot select a variety of personalities with various voices to use at will to sound human, machine or whatever he desires to sound like.

[@ABorderPrince]

recommend it its a must especially ot make sense of the new lore etc

[@joebyrnes9254]

I wonder if the Decimus in this story is actually the same Decimus one can play as in Space Marine 2?

I think cawl and trazen make a cute couple. Think about it ancient, morally bankrupt, sentient machines hell bent on galactic prominence. They were made for each other literally.

Well, Cawl's loyal to Imperium while Trazyn is his own faction. And Cawl need to develope and steal the techs for Imperium while Trazyn has all the techs he need

I don't know I have a love hate relationship with Cawl on the one hand I love he's unorthodox thinking he's mind free of Mecanicus dogma , but on the other hand he is smarter then the Emperor now com on wtf then why the fuck we need the big E cause Cawl smart as he is can probably shut down that webway gate on Terra and we can all call him emperor Cawl

I'm not a big fan of the primaris idea. Advancement absolutely but the super er, super soldiers? Mostly I just don't like the idea of someone out doing in a few millenia what it took the emperor 80000 years to achieve.

[@SpadeRZA]

Where did you get that number from?

[@TheRealBelisariusCawl]

*Sigh* I spend 10,000 years improving on the emperors work and this is the thanks I get? Oh well, I can always use another servitor. Come with me peasant, I believe your new life will be passing butter.

[@mikewaterfield3599]

His estimated age, not the time he started working on unification. Theoretically big E would have access to dark age tec. There are a few infered references that the mass suicide of the shamen occurred during the neolithic period. A little math suggests big E is pushing 80k.

[@mikewaterfield3599]

Rick Sanchez, or cawl A moral cyborgs, still not immune to plasma weapons.

[@mikewaterfield3599]

No, but unless cawl is a man of iron in disguise, big E probably had a way better grasp on tec and humanity in general. Inferred data suggests he dates to the neolithic period.

[@Ibian666]

Your narration is excellent, but the primaris are still absolutely heretical.
