StrangerOrders Posted March 23, 2020 Share Posted March 23, 2020 Eidolon is a pretty big character in Clonelord and Fabius is intimately familiar with his own handiwork, so ya that is pretty much him. He has also survived more ridiculous things than gravity at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SpAcEGhOsT095 Posted March 23, 2020 Share Posted March 23, 2020 I have heard something about Ezekyle weeping and the Widowmaker ending up......somewhat shorter. What's the context? And do I really want to know? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StrangerOrders Posted March 23, 2020 Share Posted March 23, 2020 Poor Sigismund can't kill anyone it seems. Hey man, the Black Sword can't pierce Plot Armor. That stuff is tougher than a Necron Wearing Aurumite Terminator armor at the heart of a blackstone fortress covered in Gloriana's at the heart of a tombworld within Comorragh with the blessing of the Emp and Chaos Undivided with the luck of the Tau.

StrangerOrders Posted March 23, 2020 Share Posted March 23, 2020 Isn't Falkus in ADB's Abaddon series post-Scouring? He might have lost his topknot, which in Cthonian culture is probably like getting your junk cut off. A truly horrible fate. 1ncarnadine 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fire Golem Posted March 23, 2020 Share Posted March 23, 2020 Isn't Falkus in ADB's Abaddon series post-Scouring? yes, which did confuse me a little, as he gets cut open and beheaded by Garro here. It does mention some entity inside of him which dissipates, so whether that’s his essence or whatever which becomes possessed Kibre in the Black Legion books... Garro wrenched the blade out of him, and hacked, splitting Falkus Kibre through the chin, the sternum and the groin. Torn open, Kibre sank to his knees. Glossy black organs bulged and spilled out of him, carried by a rush of fluid as dark as Prometheum. He had not been Falkus Kibre in any organic sense for a long time. Whatever invisible, aetheric thing had been nesting in him shrieked and fled, leaving it’s ruined host body behind. ‘’Throne of Terra,’ Garro murmured. ‘You poor bastard...’ Garro swung, quickly, surely, and struck off Falkus Kibre’s gasping head.

b1soul Posted March 23, 2020 Share Posted March 23, 2020 (edited) I am assuming Garro struck off the two vertically bisected halves of Kibre's head...which were somehow gasping? Edited March 23, 2020 by b1soul Llagos_Tyrant 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SpAcEGhOsT095 Posted March 23, 2020 Share Posted March 23, 2020 Remember when Dorn had a brain-fart about forgetting he met Vulkan? Pepperidge Farm remembers. Those were simpler times. In all seriousness. This confuses the hell out of me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1ncarnadine Posted March 23, 2020 Share Posted March 23, 2020 re: Falkus- I wonder if Dan looked up where Kibre was at (in general) and confused the Black Legion status as where he was at just pre-Siege? Strange however you slice it, seems like an error. Marshal Loss 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StrangerOrders Posted March 23, 2020 Share Posted March 23, 2020 (edited) Actually... maybe it isnt an error. Remember that Daemon possessing the Justaerin? Isn't it weird that Abbadon, with all of his flaws and hypocracy, is so okay with that? Or that it can meld together with all of them so easily at once? What if the Daemon is the real Falkus and Khayon's friend is either a fraud or a lieutenant who took up his identity Blood Angels style?

SpAcEGhOsT095 Posted March 23, 2020 Share Posted March 23, 2020 If Abnett went with that angle, it could work. Or he was "in the zone" as he wrote and forgot about it. I'm still curious about what happened with Ezekyle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morovir Posted March 23, 2020 Share Posted March 23, 2020 That would be interesting, given that Falkus only becomes possessed during the course of the first Black Legion book, rather than prior to it. Also, its especially strange, given that up until this point in the Heresy, Falkus has never been suggested as being any more than a regular Astartes, being the veritable 'straight man' of the Mournival. Nothing to suggest long-term corruption on the level suggested by the excerpt. 1ncarnadine, DarkChaplain and SpAcEGhOsT095 3 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm still curious about what happened with Ezekyle. Abaddon comes out fine. He's weeping because he's extracted from what he thinks is his final, glorious brawl; he remembers what warfare used to feel like in the Good Old Days.

StrangerOrders Posted March 23, 2020 Share Posted March 23, 2020 Ya know... I can get disagreement and debate. What I cant get is the persistent need to complain with one sentence, not even in an interesting fashion. Back to the book. Anyone else get a good laugh out of Euphratii basically holding an interview with the whinier end of the 40k fanbase?

SpAcEGhOsT095 Posted March 23, 2020 Share Posted March 23, 2020 Yeah I think this is an error. Doesn't really square. A great many things don't square with several of the books in the last few years. James Swallow made some horrible canon errors in Lanterns Light. The editors have their share of mistakes as well.
