Warhammer Inquisitor

This article is a customary explanation chapter. I have seen some problems recently, and everyone’s discussions are also very positive, so I also want to post an article to explain my point of view. This article is about Helena, and it only represents my own point of view.

First of all, make a basic characterization, is Helena a good person? Nonsense, of course not, she is also a half-demon anyway, how can there be an innocent girl in a place like subspace? But you say Helena is bad? I don't think so, and here's why.

Let's dissect what Helena has done, the Badab War, if you calm down and watch it without emotion, you will find that the whole war is actually Huron's own arrogance and desire for power, as well as Star Wars. The greed and arrogance of the nobles of the district government has always been caused, as well as the discord among the space marines.

What did Helena do? She only did one thing, go to the governor of the star area to blow the ear, and persuade Huron to become king, but imagine, even if there is no Helena, no one will do this thing? You know, around a powerful boss, the most indispensable thing is the "heroes" who flatter and persuade him to advance. Just look at the ancient history of our country. Assisting the new king and persuading him to the top are the fastest means for human beings to rise to the top since ancient times. This word is called Conglong.

So, yes, what Helena did was just something that someone would have done with or without her. Let’s look at the Macragge incident in the plot and the plague of tears incident. After shouting Long Live the Emperor and thinking about everything in the world, you will find that Helena has not done anything particularly outrageous.

First of all, the plague of tears has very low lethality. It is also said in the book that the eyes can recover their vision after the plague disappears (I have also explained the specific principle). Secondly, the purpose of her going to Macragge is to help Fulgrim Hold Guilliman, and put the crown on Guilliman by the way. It is also clearly mentioned in the book that Helena put Fulgrim in the same place, tampered with the crown, and finally became the classic "Cursed" scene.

Let's talk about delaying. Without Helena, wouldn't Fulgrim find someone else to delay? Of course he would, and the person who came would not be so "gentle". In fact, the person who came to do this in the official history was Mortarion, and his method of delaying Guilliman was much more cruel than Helena.

Besides, Vito burned the garden of Nurgle, thus triggering the plague war? I want to say, whether he burns or not, the plague war will break out, because Mortarion will finally come to fight with Guilliman passionately (what a joy among you brothers, the big blueberry just woke up and all ran to Guilliman Say good morning and welcome to 40K)

Give the empire some blessings from a loving father, and the loving father himself will throw plagues on the empire. It does not mean that if Vito does not burn the garden, the plague war will not be fought. The laws of history are materialistic and inevitable, and not one person can do it at will affected.

In the end, you will find that Helena actually played everyone from Empire, to Vitor, to Fulgrim, and she didn't have any inclinations.

This leads to Helena being both your ally and your enemy, remember what Vito said earlier? If Helena is fooled into engaging with Titan, she will go, if she thinks that Titan can bring her more fun, Helena doesn't mind helping the Empire and the Emperor.

She is a two-way sword. Vito didn’t kill Helena on the one hand because she was his daughter, and on the other hand, it was also because Helena could help the empire in many cases. For example, Vito was going to deal with the Eldar or Greenskin, if he can convince Helena that this game is very interesting and can surprise Helena, Helena will happily help the old father kill the alien, and may be more ruthless than Vito, after all, she has superimposed Attributes of Slaanesh.

She is a typical fun person, and all the things she participates in are for her own fun, and she is not much different from Trasin. If you want to ask, ah, are the lives of ordinary people in the empire so cheap? Die casually for you to have fun.

I can only say, unfortunately, yes, the lives of ordinary people in the empire are not considered by people of this level, even in the empire, otherwise you can ask the high lords and governors if they know the suffering at the bottom ? Why do you want to make a bunch of shit for your own self-interest, all harm but no benefit.

So, we're here to wrap up again Helena, you said what she did was outrageous, is she causing the problem? No, everything Helena did was destined to happen, or rather, most of the evil demons in the empire came in later. The origin, fermentation, and outbreak of the beginning are all from this dark galaxy The human beings in the game made it themselves, and it is meaningless to simply throw the blame to the devil.

(In fact, it is precisely because human beings are used to blame the heretics and demons when things happen, so as to explain to the trial court, so similar shit happens all the time.)

My point is that Helena is not a good person, and there is no such thing as a good person in this universe, well, except for Vulcan and Angel, but the good people of Warhammer are often the first to die, and the rest are between good and bad In between, or normal people who put their own interests first, Helena is also, this kind of normal people who really account for the majority of the galaxy will not be the same as the hero who everyone thinks is selfless and heroic. Everyone has selfishness, from humans to Primarchs to Emperors.

I'm asking the question for some readers, are you trying to whitewash Helena, you bastard? Do not face.

Answer, no, Helena is a devil after all, and it is outrageous to expect her to be a good person and do good deeds. Of course, everyone will dislike her, and there is nothing wrong with that.

But I also want to remind readers that the "evil deeds" that Helena was criticized by throwing a high lord at will can be more disgusting than her, outrageous and destructive, please remember when criticizing Helena, There are many more disgusting people than her in this galaxy, and more than half of them are on the human side. Don't just blame the devils and be done.

Then, let’s go back to Vito. Some people say that Vito is a clown. I can only say that if you presuppose the conclusion at the beginning that the protagonist must be a moral saint and a perfect person, then you will make a mistake from the beginning. I made a ridiculous mistake, simply labeling people.

Of course, Vito is not a perfect man, he has quite a few shortcomings and faults, just like all original bodies or human beings, he misses the old love, does not kill Helena and hooks up with Lilith.

The answer to all this is actually very simple. If you are also an immortal who has lived for 40,000 years and all your friends and relatives are gone, you will also miss the old feelings. In other words, drinking and drinking together, old friends who talk and talk have scruples. Of course, it is not without a bottom line. For example, Lilith persuaded Vito to rebel several times, and became the emperor and proclaimed himself emperor, but Vito did not agree.

(Of course, whether you can kill it or not, a god of Lilith's level is not so easy to kill.)

There are many similar things. Many times what happens in this world is irrational, because human beings, not machines, don't just think about problems with calculations.

For example, Ryan, he knew that Luther might rebel, and even tried to blow himself up with a nuclear bomb, but what did Ryan choose in the end? Instead of slashing Luther, he sent Luther and the veterans back to Caliban to train the recruits.

Of course he can be straightforward, cut Luther to solve all problems, and there will be no Caliban fallen angel rebellion, but Ryan did not, the reason is very simple, Luther is the adoptive father of the Lion King, raised Ryan and taught him As a knight, no matter how indifferent and purpose-oriented Ryan is, he will miss the past. He will not kill his "father", and the final result can be criticized by others, but this is the lion king, or in other words, people.

Furthermore, Magic Pony, he pierced the webway at that time, and Russ brought the wolves over to kill him all over the house. As a sinner who made mistakes first, the most rational way for Pony is to sit down and let the wolves take over. The Thousand Sons killed them all, burned Prospero to the ground, and then cut themselves down, silently leading their lives to die instead of fooling around with humans.

But he didn't, why? Because if you are in his position, looking at your sons, the people are going to die without complaint in order to protect you, and advise you to take up arms instead of lying flat to die, your homeland is under the attack of wolves Destroy it once, and in the end what you choose must be irrational, take up arms and fuck the mother.

Let's talk about Leman Russ. When he jumped to ambush Horus, he had a chance to kill Horus with one spear and directly crush the core of the great rebellion, but at the last moment when Horus' soul reappeared Still relented, instead of killing him, he persuaded Horus to go back to Terra together, and even the wolf king, who had always been an executioner, was willing to take the risk to intercede with the emperor for him.

The Wolf King, as the emperor's executioner, also chose the irrational choice, which caused the emperor to squat on the toilet, and the galaxy became a mess. Why? Because Horus is his brother, and his comrade-in-arms who fought for two centuries, the wolf king's humanity overwhelmed his ideal as an executioner, and he chose to save rather than execute.

Let's talk about the emperor again. Erda scraped away the four peddlers summoned by the Primarchs. It is reasonable to say that Erda is an absolute death penalty. It is enough to shoot 10,000 times, but the emperor did not kill Erda, but let her go to Africa. She lived in seclusion for the elderly, and never looked for her again in her whole life, but she still kept her alive.

Therefore, the purpose of my saying so much is to explain to you that in this universe, in this world, no one is a saint, we are all human beings, and human beings will make mistakes, get entangled and stubborn because of our own feelings. But it is also these emotions that make us burst out infinite courage in order to protect those we care about and love in adversity.

This is the source of the power of the Astral Army. Human beings have fought against all the dark enemies in this fucking universe. The source of power for hundreds of millions of years is not an absolutely ideal truth, and even those who have been repeatedly criticized by philosophers and scholars Rational feelings.

So I hope that everyone can think about problems as a person, instead of the so-called "rationality". In fact, that is not rationality, but a false proposition with a pre-set position.

Finally, the conclusion is that the protagonist is not perfect, he is a human being, and Helena is not an absolute bad person, and of course she is not a good person, she is just a microcosm of this galaxy.

Finally, a brief mention. Some readers said that the protagonist didn’t change many things, except for picking up girls. In fact, he saved the Emperor many times. Not to mention the Victoria Tyranid invasion at the beginning, Cadia, he moved to Trasim, and later participated in Not to mention the battle of Macragge that got Guilliman up, and now going to Terra and so on, not to mention the Beast Wars and the Macharius Crusade and so on.

These things happened in the original version, but this book integrates the protagonist into it, making these things happen through his hands, brewing and bringing about the follow-up story.

In fact, I just properly integrated the story of the protagonist, the way and results of participating in historical events, with the story of Warhammer itself, rationalized many things that GW did not explain clearly, and integrated the protagonist into it.

I didn't open my mind, and I took it for granted that the protagonist would make a bunch of outrageous events, because such a historical butterfly effect is difficult to speculate, so, before the end of the main storyline, my choice is to tell the protagonist's story, that is, The story of how he saved the empire is fused with the original story of Warhammer and rationalized

I don’t know if everyone likes this method, the way of originality + rewriting the original plot, but it’s okay if you don’t like it, because it’s about to go to a place that the official hasn’t written, and it’s no longer tied to historical rationality and coherence. , many of my original stories will come, and I hope that the stories will be liked by everyone.

Finally, for the sake of the emperor, monthly pass, recommendation and subscription, please give me a hand!
