HenricusTyranicus Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 How did the Dark Angels explain the death of their Primarch to the other chapters?* I've heard about the whole events with the fallen, not much else afterwards. I am aware he isn't really dead. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/309816-fluff-question/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaplain Lucifer Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 We don't know how they explained, but it doesn't need to be much elaborate than:He fell fighting against the forces of Chaos after the Siege of Terra, while pursuing the Traitor Legions.

Grand Master Belial Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 Or a partial truth. He was lost when a warp storm engulfed the planet and destroyed it along with a large number of the legion that was planetside.

Space Truckin Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 If I remember correctly no one except Azrael and the Watchers in the Dark even know he is alive. Unless this has been retconned.

Chaplain Lucifer Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 Not even Azrael knows. It's the Big E and the Watchers only. Azrael is the only DA to know about Luther in stasis.

Phoebus Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 How did the Dark Angels explain the death of their Primarch to the other chapters?* I've heard about the whole events with the fallen, not much else afterwards. From Ravenwing: “How did the Lion die?It was a simple question, innocently asked, and Brother Annael had wondered why, in over four hundred years of service to the Dark Angels Chapter, it had not occurred to him before. It was the question that had propelled him from an assault squad in the Fifth Company to the ranks of the Second Company, the lauded Ravenwing, and that was when he had found out the truth.Horus, arch-traitor, thrice-cursed, had murdered the primarch of the Dark Angels. ... Weeping, Annael had listened as Malcifer had related the tale of the Horus Heresy, a cataclysmic civil war that had threatened to destroy the Imperium at its birth. The Dark Angels, the First Legion, greatest of the Emperor’s warriors, had fought against the evil of Horus and those primarchs who had been corrupted by his silken-tongued promises, and they had triumphed. The victory had been won at great cost, and Lion El’Jonson, the primarch of the Dark Angels had given his life to defeat the enemy.” Excerpt From: Gav Thorpe. “Ravenwing.” iBooks.
