Summary of “Вина Потерянных Примархов вычислена! История мира Warhammer 40.000”
Storyline & Background
- The Emperor of Mankind created 20 Primarchs, his sons embodying aspects of his essence.
- Two Primarchs (the 2nd and 11th) were erased from Imperial records long before the Horus Heresy.
- Their existence, deeds, and fates are shrouded in mystery and official memory suppression.
- Despite the erasure, rumors and fragmented lore hint at a massive, double tragedy involving these lost Primarchs.
- The Imperium forbids even mentioning them, indicating the gravity of their story.
- The lost Primarchs were not traitors like Horus; rather, they are remembered with respect and as tragic figures.
- Their downfall was a “harbinger” or foreshadowing of the Horus Heresy, implying ideological or political schism within the Imperium.
Key Revelations & Theories
- The lost Primarchs’ stories were deliberately wiped from memory, even from other Primarchs, using memory scrubbing.
- Rogal Dorn, a loyal Primarch, still holds respect for them, indicating they were not evil or traitorous.
- The knowledge of what these Primarchs did is considered dangerous and could have destroyed the Imperium during the Horus Heresy.
- The two lost Primarchs had separate destinies and sins, not a joint conspiracy.
- Their legions (Astartes) were genetically pure and not corrupted by warp or mutation, unlike some other legions.
- The loss of these Primarchs was a severe blow threatening the ideals of the Great Crusade and the unity of the Imperium.
- Dorn reflects that if these lost Primarchs had remained, the Imperium would have fallen.
The Two Lost Primarchs — Detailed Theories
1. The Second Primarch: The Romantic Hero
- Ideologically different, he believed the Imperium could evolve differently than the Emperor’s vision.
- Likely advocated for alliances with xenos (aliens), seeing them as potentially good or neutral.
- He was not genetically flawed but represented a political/ideological divergence.
- His fate was likely exile, self-exile, or peaceful removal rather than execution.
- Possibly linked to the “Yellow King” figure, who may still exist in some form.
2. The Eleventh Primarch: The Sorcerer
- Practiced magic and embraced the use of warp powers, similar to Magnus the Red.
- His use of sorcery was seen as dangerous and heretical, leading to his execution by Leman Russ before the Horus Heresy.
- His legion’s descendants are portrayed as radical and unyielding, continuing his legacy.
- His fate parallels Magnus’s, who was also nearly purged for sorcery.
Additional Context
- Other Primarchs like Sanguinius feared becoming lost due to genetic flaws or ideological dissent.
- The Imperium’s survival depended on unity and adherence to the Emperor’s vision; any ideological split was fatal.
- The lost Primarchs represented a split within a split, threatening to destabilize the Imperium further.
- The Imperium’s official narrative suppresses these truths to maintain order and unity.
- The lore is pieced together from various books and authors, notably James Swallow’s works, including Nemesis and The Confection of Prosper.
