Warhammer Inquisitor

There is an oval-shaped tower at the highest point of Macraghera Fortress. In the study surrounded by Roman colonnades, there are many books, documents, and Guilliman's private collection. Most of them are rare and rare copies. , which records the last events of a distant era.

And they, the books of the most distant stories, can't compare with this letter. On the desk, there is a simple, even a bit too plain letter. Considering its content and writer, this letter is simply random. .

There is no sealing wax, the handwriting is scrawled, and God knows what kind of grease is on it. The letter itself is not high-end parchment, but a letter of ordinary printing paper, and its owner has such a casual personality. , but its content is anything but.

Guilliman was looking at the letter. He was still wearing a nutrition bottle and various hoses. Since the end of the plague war, he was quickly brought back to Hera Fortress by the Ultramarines for treatment. The best healers in the galaxy surrounded him to serve him alone, space marines and mortals alike.

These days, Guilliman feels like an animal in a laboratory, surrounded by scientists in white coats, who have tried their best to remove the plague and scars on Guilliman's body, and restore the Primarch to its original state. According to one of the doctors, it was like a newborn baby.

But Guilliman knew it wasn't, the imprint of Nurgle still remained on his body, he could feel the plague running in his body, it was only more secretive, and could hardly be observed by the outside world, but Guilliman knew it, he knew it , if Nurgle wanted to, he could kill himself at any time.

But it didn't, and the answer to all this is in the letter before him. Guilliman dismissed the guards and doctors who followed him all day long, and read the contents here alone. Of course, he knew that he had to In this way, because of the contents of the letter......

The following is the content of the letter.

Son, you were awake when you read this letter, son? Damn, I'm really a bit of an old man, don't I? But sometimes I really forget that I'm older than you, but I'm more immature than any of you a lot of the time, but people, isn't that the way it is? The older you get, the more you will stubbornly believe in certain things, because that is the reason you persist until now.

I'm not good at rhetoric, I don't know literature, so I just said Robert, your father, I mean him, your blood father, I know you never fathered him, but you bleed his Blood, that's the truth, and it got you involuntarily into the big trouble he caused.

You can't get out of that trouble, it was when I first saw you, no I'm not talking about Macragge, not when he found you, but on Terra, you sure are fine Impressed, it was in the genetic laboratory in the Himalayas, your mother, my lover, don’t believe it, although I am a Dumas lover, Astara (Author’s Note: The name Astarte is too outlandish) It was a drama, so I changed it) is indeed one of my favorite past women.

She is a good person, a really good person, she is your mother even though you never knew it, she took me to see you, it’s ironic to say that, at that time, the emperor gave you all names with numbers, I improvised Names were given to you, and in the end, you really are called those names, I don't know if it's fate, or some higher fiddle, but your Connor father called you Robert, just like I did then.

Children, I watched your origins, and I watched you grow up. You served under me, but you are all my friends, even brothers, are you a chaotic generation, right? But whatever.

Robert, I really love you guys, you know I'm an immortal, don't ever curse I told you that immortality is actually a curse, it's a curse that makes you want to die, you'll see Watching all my friends die one by one, I've been through it too many times, and besides him, you guys are one of the only friends I've had for a long time, so I really don't want to tell you this, but I have to you.

This is my duty, I know that I am a casual and self-willed person, but I also know my mission, in those long years I know what I have to do, I also know what to do now, and You, my child and friend, you are already in the chess game, and I know that you also understand your mission, but today, I want to tell you the real mission.

Your blood father, the one I used to call brother betrayed us (redacted here, the word brother was deleted, but added back) he betrayed us all, it wasn't Horus back then , This time it's more serious, he will become a god, child, whether you want to admit it or not, he is already a god, my brother is dead, your father is also dead, now where is it just a man with the obsession for revenge of living corpses.

That is a god, a god more terrifying than the gods of Chaos, Chaos just wants endless joy and fun, and he, simply wants destruction, he intends to destroy the entire universe, literally, he will Return the universe to Shang, you, everything I ever cared about will disappear with it.

I will not allow it, boy, I will stop him from going even if he is called a traitor by the world, don't hate those people, because they don't know anything, and I hope they don't know, because, this is also a curse, kill My lifelong friend is not feeling well, I can tell you this, but, I have to do it.

Child, I watched you grow up, I watched you step into the stars, ascend the throne of Macragge, sleep and wake up, I know who you are, I know you, maybe, just like your father Connor , you probably know me too, so I know you won't stand idly by either.

This is a dangerous gamble, Robert, you and I will be regarded as traitors, we will be accused by everyone like Horus, but I don't care, when it is over, I will quietly leave, and You child, but you can't do this, you can't just throw your hands away like me, so I hope you will think it through before deciding.

And when you make up your mind, if you still decide to embark on this path of eternal doom with me, I want you to be prepared, the plague war is over, and I promise you that Nurgle will not come back again, the four gods of chaos Won't get in your way, can hardly be called helpful, but don't worry about stabbing them in the back, those guys are crazy, but also know how to play safe and fight for survival, if all goes well, your old traitor brothers Will be back with me.

But at that time, everyone is a "traitor", isn't it? So well, you get along with them, at least I hope so, the rest you know what to do, prepare your army, polish your weapons and blades, use your right to take over and control most of the empire for that trial Get ready on Sunday, and I will have the Inquisition and the Order of Assassins fully assist you.

and I? I will leave, quietly of course, I will leave a double to confuse the god on the throne, what I am going to do next, he cannot know, and neither will you, I do not want to deceive you child, but, It might sound like an excuse, but it's better for you that you don't know.

When I come back I hope you're ready and that's all, no matter how you choose Robert, I want you to know that your mother Astara and I are so proud of you, you really became what you wanted become the person.

Farewell, Robert Guilliman, Lord of Macragge and my child.

Vito Constantine.

Guilliman put down the letter in his hand. He leaned on the desk and chair and looked at the moonlight outside the colonnade. The sky was full of stars shining in the sky, shining on his blue eyes.

"Good luck, my guiding father."
