Possible hint at answer of Tarvitz outcome?

[Kol Saresk]

Maybe. Except Aximand didn't die and Tarik Torgaddon makes a reappearance in Know No Fear as a daemon called Tormageddon.

[Vesper]

Now that's a ridiculous name.

[Conn Eremon]

Now that's a ridiculous name.

Agreed.

[depthcharge12]

Well, if they kill Loken then his name will be Lokageddon :D

[GhostMalone]

No Armageddon hence why angron wants the place to burn.

 

Loken asked him to politely leave terra & angron could not believe his rudeness and ripped off his arm from that day forth loken was armless and in honour of his sacrafice he got a system named after him

[Aegnor]

On the name Tormageddon, wasn't that Tormageddon Rex the name of the daemonically possessed battleship that featured in the Gaunt's Ghosts novel Salvation's Reach? Also by Mr Abnett?

 

So Tarik may still be kicking around in 40k, albeit it as a massive battleship.

Part of the ship? Part of the crew?

Know No Fear, Page 346

 

Tarik reborn, he-who-is-now-Tormageddon.

 

And is it really that ridiculous when compared to Ferrus Manus, Primarch of the Iron Hands?

[Aegnor]

I'm not saying that that isn't the name, or that it isn't Tarik. I'm saying is Abnett chucking in a reference that the entity he becomes might later possess a battleship?

[Kol Saresk]

Oh, maybe.

[Conn Eremon]

The one who only knew how to say his own name, albeit loudly enough to be heard in space?

 

Oh, Tarik. Let's face it, you didn't have that much of a wit beforehand either.

[Aegnor]

Nobody said it was a picnic! ;)

[Hyaenidae]

In the Collected Visions, there is a small piece of SoH art, with a heavily corrupted Legionaire named Tormageddon. I'm assuming that's the reference, though the question remains if it really is Tarik (which would be very odd), or if it's the name of the daemon who ate Tarik's soul and possessed a different body.

It could be another case of retcon a la "Somehow the Night Lords were sent to Isstvan after going Renegade."

Maybe? Hard to say, at this point.

Is there something that says explicitly "The Night Lords were here at Planet A when the Dropsite was going on"?

 

It's like people saying Forgeworld putting Nostramo twenty years before the Heresy was a retcon. Upon looking through the IA articles, my response was "Have you read the older fluff" because it has the Night Lords blowing up Nostramo and then going on a rampage that is said to affect dozens of worlds and they go so far out of known space that the Imperium has to send recon fleets just to see if they still exist. In a galaxy that is so interconnected that the reputation of an enemy can spread far enough that entire planets can hear who is coming and surrender well in advance, something like this takes time. Sure, the Imperium can lose communications, but lose track of an entire Legion? That is a bit more unlikely in the timespan of "Nostramo blows up. BAM! Istvaan V." With what is already there in the IA article, showing that there was a serious enough amount of time that not only could an entire Legion cease communication with the Imperium but also manage to get off of its radar makes more sense than "BAM! Event 1, BAM! Event 2."

 

There was a similar reaction when A D-B put some Night Lords on Terra. "OMG! Buttclench! Nothing says they were there!" Well one, A D-B never said the Legion was there. We just see some Night Lords were there. Two, the IA articles said they were headed to Terra. Three, so all that means is that when you look at the Siege of Terra as written by Imperial historians, all it means is that the Night Lords were just another unnamed force amongst the Traitors, much like many of the Titan and Imperial Army forces. Unless it is a retcon that they were there too since they aren't specifically named by regiment.

[Memento Of Prospero]

You misunderstood me brother. I will expand it as : with the discovery of traitors within their ranks, the imperium (With Dorn, who experienced the Lightning Tower) sent the thrusted Night Lords in a retribution force?

[Kol Saresk]

The Night Lords volunteered. Besides, if trust was an issue, why send the Alpha Legion when the watch-pack Malcador sent after Alpharius "disappeared"?

 

Also, recall that Ferrus did receive orders about the Night Lords that were never expounded upon. Wouldn't be surprising if Dorn thought this was a way to kill two birds with stone by removing the Traitors and bringing Curze back to Terra.

Or Tarik's dead body.

Abaddon, in the short story "Chosen of Chaos" seems quite fond of doing that kind of stuff.

[Memento Of Prospero]

I mean, was there even a single watch pack or custodes still in place at that point?

 

I can see Malcador getting is weekly report and spewing out his coffee at seeing the result ;)

Well Dan Abnett seems to think "Tarik reborn" and I keep hearing tell of Luna Mendex which was a short in the Black Library Weekender anthology that has Tarik telling Loken that "something bad happened to him".

It's explained in FW's Massacre that "loyalist" forces believed it was due to Curze and the Night Lords original personae of punishing sinners that made them return and take part.

"LEMAN RUSS DID WHAT WITH ANGRON?!?!"

 

 

"Servitor 03652-Alpha, go fetch me some more insta cafe from Space Starbucks...this is gonna be a long day..."

[helterskelter]

Is he dead? Or is he really dead?

I'm like 99% sure Loken is legally insane at this point, from the whole "Cerberus" bit, I am sure that Loken is just having the worst case of PTSD and Tarik is just a figment of his imagination.
