Chapter 412: Attempting to Popularize the Gospel of Gratitude
What is a god?
Humans have always liked to attribute extraordinary divinity to transcendent beings, believing that they must be fundamentally different from humanity itself. The Eldar have a fuller understanding of warp entities, knowing exactly what these beings, formed by the combination of emotions and warp laws, are.
A typical example is the Emperor.
At first, the Emperor's human-like behavior made almost everyone think He was just a pretentious Terran warlord pretending to be a god. It wasn't until the later stages of the Heresy that those in the know realized the truth.
This anthropomorphic being, by broad definition, really was a god.
This directly shattered the Dao-heart of various traitor participants, including Lorgar.
So for Eldrad Ulthran—
The Dawnbreakers perfectly fit the standard for defining a god in this universe.
Many, arguably all Eldar of the post-god era, were baffled by Ulthran's sudden capitulation, and found it absurd that the Ulthwé Seer Council could pass a series of resolutions with those monkeys from the Dawnstar Sector.
Although the security of the Webway and the abundance of supplies brought by cooperation somewhat silenced them, it didn't stop them from muttering a few words when replacing Spirit Stones accidentally damaged due to engaging in more dangerous operations than in the past in front of the Dome of Crystal Seers.
Aren't they just four freaks created by a psychic upright ape? What's so rare about them?
That's because they didn't view the four wings of the Dawnbreakers as gods at all.
Pragmatic, humorous, full of positive emotions, and possessing restraint far beyond their power.
Then look at the other freaks in this universe. The four biggest lumps in the warp are well known. Even judged by the universal values of the current galactic hegemon, these four could be called moral paragons of contemporary humanity.
Is comparing them to the Imperium a bit depressing?
So if you look at it from a leader's perspective, the Dawnbreakers' use of the Eldar is actually quite inhumane. But if you put the Dawnbreakers in the position of gods, and yourself in the position of daemons or cultists...
Ulthran had always been relatively pessimistic about the future of the Eldar. Many times he would even use extreme means to interfere with his own race. In this process, many of his own people and others would die, which also made him notorious among his own kin.
It's just that there seems to be a little accident now. The Farseer who had fought for the future of the Eldar all his life had to bring his talent to the Dawnbreakers.
"Sorry, the signal in the Webway is a bit bad."
Glancing at the distress message just received, Ramesses looked at Trazyn shattered on the ground, greeted Ulthran, and then looked at the formation behind.
Running to someone else's Craftworld to steal their Crystal Seer, and actually managing to run alive into the Webway to find them... and judging by this posture, it wasn't the first time he'd done this. Ulthran was lucky to be alive.
The Webway exists independently of the warp and can shield warp influence to a certain extent.
Although the Webway has basically been leaking everywhere after ten thousand years, many areas are still unexplored territory for the warp. This is why Lelith Hesperax, the Queen of Knives of the Dark Eldar, dared to think about dueling Lucius the Eternal, the Champion of Slaanesh, and why Cegorach, the Laughing God, could hide safely until now under the prying eyes of many freaks and even operate his own forces.
And because of the precedent of Old Man Gold, Ramesses didn't dare to install a psychic base station like the Astropathic Choir in the Webway to amplify signals. In case Tzeentch found out, He might blow up a big one for you.
As the manifestation of the Old Ones' great power, the Webway can connect to reality and is also compatible with the warp. Daemons can manifest directly in the Webway. If the place blown up is close to a Webway gate, it's no different from blowing up an Eye of Terror.
Look, he even apologizes.
Ulthran suddenly felt an inexplicable sense of shame rising in his heart for his practice of spending great effort to prophesy the location of the human fleet, hoping to use the Dawnbreakers' prestige and show his work enthusiasm.
"Say thank you."
Raising his hand, he cut off the connection between the Biel-Tan Farseer's soul and body, silencing the body that had been screaming unwillingly. Ramesses looked at his palm.
Well, those Eldar in the park probably really worship that place as some kind of Aeldari Promised Land.
Ramesses thought of the series of titles the Eldar gave him, feeling that sooner or later he could go to Slaanesh and steal some warp essence back.
"Thank you."
Ulthran thanked him hurriedly, ignoring his cousins behind him who were completely stunned by the appearance of a god.
These Eldar from Biel-Tan were also stunned. The complexity of the Webway prevented them from discovering the human fleet in the passage above, and they were unprepared for this sudden attack.
A rather awkward emotion spread through the team.
What to do? The Farseer was just talking trash and got real-ed by the god worshiped by the other side.
Khaine! Khaine save us!
The leading Autarch hurriedly looked at the crimson longsword sealing the fragment of Khaine.
At the moment of the Fall of the Eldar, countless Eldar gods were swallowed by Slaanesh in an instant. Only Khaine the Bloody-Handed could fight against Him, even fighting to a draw for a time, eventually losing due to weapon inferiority and being blasted out of the warp by powerful force.
His will was killed the moment it penetrated the veil of reality, and his body shattered into countless fragments containing Khaine's divine power, held by various Eldar forces, used to turn the tide of battle at critical moments.
Comparable to the C'tan of the material universe.
When the Autarch's gaze fell on the blade, he found that the cherished blade had disappeared at some point.
He looked up.
The magnificent golden-masked sorcerer was playing with the crimson longsword in his hand. The Necron, who had recovered at some point, stood behind him, casually picking up the body of the Biel-Tan Farseer.
"..."
What to do?
Fight or not?
Tangled questions began to echo in this unit.
For the Eldar, banishing a warp entity wasn't difficult, but the series of subsequent problems had to be faced.
If a warp entity is banished, it's banished; it can come out again when free.
You Eldar will die one day, right?
Your soul is still in the Spirit Stone, right?
They had experienced enough of the feeling of being targeted by a warp power; they couldn't add another one.
"I thought they would bow down immediately."
Noticing that the entire Eldar unit fell into a strange state of 'to kneel or not to kneel', Ramesses muttered.
"Not many Eldar know you."
Ulthran explained, probing the other party's attitude towards faith.
Ramesses also thought about it and felt that the propaganda of the park, compared to the heat of word-of-mouth in the warp, was indeed a bit lacking in influence in the material universe. Leaving aside various Craftworlds, some gospel of gratitude should be added to the Eldar residential area.
He felt he treated the Eldar quite well.
He didn't treat them as slaves even after beating them to death in war. He signed labor agreements, allocated a piece of land in the warp including room and board, and they could even go to watch the assembly line in the next park to decompress.
Combined with the currently pleasant cooperative relationship with Ulthwé...
"Then spread it."
Ramesses waved his hand and threw out a textbook of gratitude from the early Imperium.
Lectitio Divinitatus
Lorgar himself had proven its effectiveness.
Ulthran put it away.
"By the way, isn't it just finding a person? Is such a big scene necessary?"
Ramesses, who was also struggling with whether to pull these people into the park, thought for a while and asked again.
"Yvraine is not a Succubus yet and has not engaged in arena work. I can only use this last resort to determine her specific location through family connections."
Ulthran replied holding the Crystal Seer in his arms: "After all, that is Commorragh."
That is a super city layered upon layers, requiring several stars to provide light, with almost indefinable boundaries.
"Commorragh is too urbanized."
The other party sighed inexplicably.
"Indeed."
Ulthran nodded in agreement.
