Emperor's Daughter of the Red Sands

Chapter 64 The Road to Redemption ([-])

Looking at Elaine's hand stretched out towards him, Lorgar fell into a daze.

Yaojin's brilliance is mixed with the breath of red sand, and the sacred praise is accompanied by ethereal singing, and the whole room is completely illuminated by that incomparably sacred brilliance.

Everything is so extraordinary, everything is so incomprehensible - just like the existence of the miracle itself, mysterious and fascinating.

"This must be His gift..."

Looking at the strange scene indistinguishable from a miracle, Lorgar slowly stretched out his hand.

This even reminded him of the day when the Lord of Humanity came to Colchis in person, the stalwart figure shining like thousands of suns came from among the stars, wearing a cloak carved with gold and flames, to redeem His Twenty sons lost throughout the galaxy.Perhaps in the eyes of ordinary people, the lord of mankind is still the existence of the real universe, but the laurel crown he wears has fully demonstrated that holiness.

At that time, the Messiah in the holy golden armor also extended the hand of redemption to himself, saving the lost lamb from the sea of ​​suffering.

Lorgar will never forget that scene in his life.

Now, the same miracle is repeated in His Son...

"Not just a gift."

Elaine clenched Lorgar's palm, and the cold light shone even brighter.

"Compared to the gift, it also means a heavier responsibility."

"Just like the trials of the No.17 Legion, the journey of each of us is always watched by our father..."

"Until the fated moment comes upon us."

At this moment, Lorgar felt unprecedented warmth.

It seems that all the guilt in my heart has completely disappeared at this moment, and the confusion of the past has been completely dispelled by this warmth.

And the Red Sand Lord showed a weary smile.

She saw everything about Lorgar.

Shared his six-year war in Colchis, and experienced his confession when the perfect city was destroyed.

Punishment and questioning from the adoptive father, indifference and blame from the emperor.

He is far from reaching the point of no return.

So, Elaine subtly absorbed all the pain of this brother, just like she would do for her soldiers in every battle.

There may be some kind of incompleteness in her limbs and some inner parts, but since facing that inevitable fate, she feels that she has become more and more complete—whether it is the fight with Angron or the fight with Lorgar. She has benefited a lot from her heart-to-heart talks.

She could even clearly feel that the giant scar in the sea of ​​mind was slowly healing.

Needless to say, this redemption works both ways.

Just like what she saw in the illusion created by the evil god, Lorgar just lacked the comfort from his father from the beginning to the end.

Deep down in his heart, Lorgar longed for understanding from his father, but that old dog of Kor Phaeron completely led him astray.So much so that Lorgar became an incomplete believer, relying on religious belief to fill the void in his heart.

"...it's unbelievable, my sister..."

Lorgar murmured softly.

He only expected that the No.17 Legion would be subject to surveillance and judgment from the Emperor, and would go through more and more arduous tests in the next long time to regain the trust of Holy Terra in the Word Bearers.

Before that, he never thought that this 'grace' would come so soon.

Now, however, the Primarch sister, sent by the Emperor to watch over the Word Bearers, is truly a father figure...

"Father's mighty power has never been beyond our imagination."

"And I... only inherited part of his will."

Elaine slowly put back the Yaojin Armor, and the strange phantoms that filled the room disappeared in an instant.

It seemed that the fiery red sand floating in the air just now never existed.

"The fact that we all inherited a part of our father, there's no doubt about it."

"Like Ryan El'jonson's rationality, Magnus' psionic power and curiosity, Ruth's wildness..."

"And Horus—"

When the wolf god was mentioned, Elaine's voice paused. Although most of these impressions were learned in the past, she always maintained respect for that brother.

"He represents my father's ambition and pride, he is the most outstanding one among us... Pride is throbbing in his body like blood, and the achievements of the Shadow Moon Wolf are also the most powerful existence among the twenty legions. "

Lorgar nodded slightly. Lorgar still remembered the proud wolf god, the worlds where the Word Bearers fought side by side with the Luna Wolf.

They always use the most experienced and skilled skills to defeat any enemy, whether they are alien or human.

Of all the Primarch brethren, only Horus' favor is evident.Horus was the first to return, and whenever a new Primarch returned, it was Horus who led them to learn all kinds of knowledge from the empire.

Elaine slowly flipped through the "Holy Words" and continued:

"We were all born from an indispensable part of our father's great vision. Everyone has a corresponding heavy responsibility, and everyone has their own direction to deal with."

"Just like the internal affairs that Guilliman is good at, his father obviously gave him too much power—the five hundred worlds of Ultramar, even I, who is far away in the maelstrom, have heard quite a lot."

"But something more important than power is undoubtedly [responsibility]."

"The responsibility that comes with this power is full of you and me, and it is full of each of our brothers. And some of these things are more important because of my father's inarticulateness-this is why I came here cause, my brother."

"He is fighting alone against a difficulty we have never imagined, which is difficult to describe in words."

Elaine looked directly at Lorgar seriously.

"Father may not want us children who have been deceived by 'white lies' to know this."

"But I must bring you the truth, lest you go into that bottomless abyss."

"You... are you ready? My brother."

Lorgar was silent for a moment, then nodded slowly.

In Elaine's gilt pupils burning with flames, Lorgar saw something heavier and more indescribable.

It wasn't until later that he knew what this kind of thing was called.

【destiny】.

……

Nuceria.

The dilapidated land surrounded by hot red sand is gradually recovering its former vitality under the hard work of the No.12 Legion. Batch after batch of supply merchant ships from the empire have sailed into this star field, and the increasingly busy space star port and casting The world is stepping up to resume production.

Among the merchant ships slowly sailing into the star port, except for the transport ships directly under the Terra War Council, there are many logos from the supply world to which the Iron Warriors belong. Obviously, even in Olympia, Perturabo is still Received the news that the No.12 Legion suffered heavy losses in an unknown war.

However, these merchant ships belonging to the Iron Warriors generally did not have the escort of the Iron Warriors. Maybe the Iron Warriors on the front line were too tight, or maybe Perturabo didn't want others to know about this assistance.

However, even so, Nuceria's trauma cannot be fully recovered in a short time-she lost a whole generation of population in the too long war, even if there are increasingly abundant resources continuously transported from Mandeville Point , but it still cannot change the essence of the fact that the No.12 legion's home planet lost its vitality in the war.

In the final analysis, the long expedition that lasted for 30 years was really too expensive-even the former War Dogs, today's Sons of the Mountains, such an ancient legion cannot support the background of the war, and this can't help but make More people wondered what kind of war would cause an Astartes Legion to suffer such a setback.

Regarding this issue, the vast majority of the Sons of the Mountain kept silent.

Whether it is the veterans who struggled to climb out of that tragic war, or the recruits who have grown up under the rigorous training - since the moment they joined the legion, silence has been their eternal answer.

……

Kahn closed his eyes tightly, his consciousness was swimming in the ocean of his mother's mind.

Feeling the unparalleled warmth and the warm wind blowing in the gentle harbor, even any degree of pain will continue to heal under the warmth from the mother, as if the mother's warm slender hands gently caressing his face.

In fact, like all the Sons of the Mountain, Kahn has regarded it as his only and eternal spiritual home.Apart from the daily fighting and training in the duel pit, the most frequent thing every Astartes of the No.12 Legion did was to meditate.

While feeling the warmth of being connected with the mother of genes, at the same time... reflect on yourself.

A trace of remorse vaguely surfaced on Kahn's face.

Yes, he regrets all the time, the Astartes and the mortal auxiliaries in every legion, they are all regretting—regret why they failed to contribute more strength when they fought in the Khorne God's Domain, If their will had been firmer and more tenacious then...

Perhaps the Lord of the No.12 Legion would not be so seriously injured that he lost contact with them completely.

"Mother…"

Kane whispered softly.

However, fortunately, this close connection from the heart symbolizes that their only mother and the Lord of the Legion have never been far away. Even if they are separated by the entire galaxy, this connection between blood and soul still exists.

Kahn could sense that Mother was now in a distant galaxy beyond their reach.

The increasingly throbbing blood is affecting the blood finger's soul, and Kahn can even predict that the day when he will reunite with his mother is not far away.

【Blood…】

The war roar from the destructive power was slowly ringing in his ears.

But Kahn didn't care about it at all.

He will never be a [betrayer].

He will only be the [Blood Finger] of the Red Sand Lord.
