@HMBohemond Brutal Kunnin is fun at least from the Ork perspective, but all the Skitari being they/them was wild to me, especially after reading other books where they keep their pronouns from before they become skitari.
@Neromiku_ They're a Chinese developer, I don't know why anyone is surprised that they are stealing assets from shit. Chinese devs literally do it all the time.
< THIS IS NOT RECLAMATION > the Oracle boomed. < THIS IS RECLAIMER >
Slowly the glyph turned upside down, and its central shapes—the concentric circles, one low inside the other, connected by a thin line—took on a different aspect. The shapes’ previous arrangement had resembled the pendulum of a clock. Inverted, the glyph now looked like a creature with two curved arms locked above its head. The glyph shrunk in size as the hologram zoomed out to show the entire alien world, covered with thousands of these newly oriented Luminations. < AND THOSE IT REPRESENTS ARE MY MAKERS >
Now it was Fortitude’s turn to feel weak in the knees. He grasped the arms of his throne and tried to come to terms with an impossible revelation: each glyph represented a Reclaimer, not a relic, and each Reclaimer was one of the planet’s aliens—which could only mean one thing.
“The Forerunners,” the Minister whispered. “Some were left behind.”

The hologram of the alien world disappeared, and once more the Oracle’s eye shone forth. < I WILL REJECT MY BIAS AND WILL MAKE AMENDS >
The vault’s dark walls began to glow as their veinlike pathways brightened inside them. The ancient circuits surged with light that raced into the obelisks behind the Oracle. The banded red and brown rocks began to crack, venting plumes of chalky vapor.
Suddenly, the Vice Minister sprung from his chair, plasma-pistol drawn. “Shut it off!” he screamed, leveling his weapon at the Philologist. The pistol’s tip shone brilliant green as it built up an overcharge bolt. “Or I will burn you where you stand!”
But at that moment, the Oracle’s lens became so bright—began to flash with such feverish frequency—that it threatened to blind all three San’Shyuum. Tranquility screamed and brought the long sleeves of his robes up before his eyes.
< MY MAKERS ARE MY MASTERS > The Oracle’s teardrop casing rattled inside its armature as if it were trying to take flight with its ship. < I WILL BRING THEM SAFELY TO THE ARK >
Spoken canon would disagree
"Your forefathers set aside their compassion, steeled themselves for what needed to be done, I see now why they left you behind. You were weak and gods should be strong"
"Child of my enemy why have you come? I offer no forgiveness, a father's sin, past down to his son"
"You are the child of my maker, inheritors of all they left behind, you ARE forerunner, but this ring is MINE!"
@AngelVa79919283@HMBohemond The birth of "She who thirsts" Is considered a grave stain ALL Aeldari carry. None may speak her name for she has claim over all of their souls and merely mentioning her sucks their souls into an eternal void of torment and 'pleasure' from which there is no escape.
@AngelVa79919283@HMBohemond The entire Eldar race is responsible for Slaaneshs birth one way or another. The Drukari for murder fucking them into existence and the Craft Worlders for fucking off and only showing back up near the end to "try" and stop it
I never said the imperium isn't evil. The difference between the Imperium and the Eldar is that the Imperium is evil because it was forced to be by a galaxy that hates them. The Eldar are evil because they chose to be. They murder fucked a demon god into existence and even after their races near extinction they either continue the behavior that made said god, or they antagonize humans, pretending they know better and falling into self fulfilling prophecies all the time.
