Well good thing he's got a good heart, cause his spine isn't in the best condition.

reason why Magnus held onto the shard as his salvation so hard was because its easy. The shard was a symbol and symbols are psychological hacks we "can" use to bypass a lot of the hard work and pain involved in confronting our faults owning them and moving forward despite them. though its an illusion in that way. Magnus is so human one of if not the most human of the primarchs imo. Sadly one can't bypass the hard work there is always a price and if your lucky you don't live long enough to see it. well i mean in fiction you can but in real life nope. Though symbols can also be used as bookmarks of fashion on our successes in our struggles which is actually a boon basically preventing going over the same things twice the same ways so being more efficient in the work. Eldar warp runes and Space wolves runepriest runes are examples of Symbols that bookmark struggles. They allow channeling of the warp with less burdens on the psyker by reminding them of their state of mind at its most focused. They have to achieve that focus first through hard work which is then frozen in time as it were in the form of a rune. Sorry I got on a tangent, Symbols on our psychology is such a part of the human experience I felt compelled to expand in and out of the 40k lore.

Now, he was forced to choose between his father and his sons, either way he will not escape suffering. He never did anything wrong before Nicaea, some of his actions after that were wrong, but were the right thing to do, this isn't black and white that right = good, what is right might result in bad things happening along with what are considered good decision leading to the demise of many. Point is it takes two to tango, it wasn't Magnus that is fully to blame just look at the actions of the Imperium. They literally helped, guided, and ultimately led him to a path that will damn his soul. Emps didn't even consider "Hey son what about I cryostasis your children so they can hibernate while we still try to find cure" He would have gotten Magnus to sit to the throne and gave him hope still, but no he wants to thunder warriors the shit out of the thousand sons because he doesn't understand that a father is willing to go to hell just to save his children. He did the right thing for his sons, even at the cost if his soul. No hibernation choice, no "let's stasis chamber your sons", nothing, their only choices were to be dictated to die or suffer. Malcador and Emps still told half truths until the very end, one of the final lines of Magnus is that he just wants nothing but the whole truth, no more lies just the truth, but they still chose to lie to him. They also lied about the shard, yes it us gone as a shard but they turned it into a new being, meaning it wasn't fully destroyed.

Great video! I was critical about the previous two, but this is solid top tier again. And you hit it on the head. Magnus needed to believe, that his corruption was something, that he could cure be finding a last soul fragment. He could excuse all the monstrous acts of “The Crimson King” by claiming incompleteness. “I am not evil, I have only lost my goodness, but I can get it back!” No, all his goodness and evil were always himself. This is the true overwhelming strength of Magnus. He simply could not be corrupted by any outside chaos force, he needed to break mentally and willingly sign on to Chaos. Lorgar choose gladly, Horus was tricked, Fulgrim was corrupted by a demonblade, Morty was infected, Angron was forced, Perturabo’s fate is unknown, and the rest are not full chaos demons. Magnus would never choose gladly, could not be forced, corrupted or infected. They had to engineer the ultimate no-win scenario to make him say Yes to Chaos.

I mean the soul shards gained personality. The father was actively trying to help the TS even wanting to sacrifice everything just to stop the crimson king (himself that chose the worst path), the warrior wanted to just be left alone and challenge everyone to an honorable duel, the arrogance wanted power for himself and manipulated Astraeos, etc. It was all him, but even his shards fought against each other filling the roles of the good and bad versions of him. He was never incomplete. If only the father and the other noble personalities won and took control over the majority then we might have had a still loyalist or renegade Magnus, but as always Tzeentch had a hand with the battle between the shards (The events of the second rubrics were just the shards battling each other, it was never Ahriman and that he was just a pawn in the war of Magnus' personalities). The broken magnus and his shards fought and nearly won but Tzeentch stepped in and subtlety influenced events and made sure Ahriman caused the path of the second rubric. The crimson king is suppressing the voices of the other shards, he even obliterated the father shard to nothingness if i remember correctly. Magnus amazes me that even when broken, he still fought until the very end, until he can't resist chaos anymore and was forced to side with them. I hate it that Malcador still told lies, half truths, that yes the soul is gone, but he could have revealed where it went and of Janus, that that final powerful shard was just transformed into a new being. Emps lied and or gave up trying to find ways to cure the TS when Ahriman discovered that other powers especially Ynneads can reverse the curse of the flesh change, it's as if the Emps never wanted to save them in the first place. He lied that all the TS are going to die to the flesh change, but fate is not set in stone and what he told Magnus is just false. They lied to Magnus until the very end and it infuriates me.

I loved that they had Magnus say he did nothing wrong, such memes.

Alivia tried to push the Emperor's visions aside, but they kept coming". As to why Magnus felt he needed the shard... Well... Psychology innit? Can't accept he had agency when he did the bad thing so scrabbling around trying to find the bit of purity and goodness that means you can carry on. 🤷‍♂️

Like look at Magnus now hating chaos and actively working against them, stating that he hates chaos. "I plan to rule after the Imperium and Chaos had worn each other out" He plans to destroy chaos and as an added bonus, the Imperial system as revenge. We could have had a loyalist Magnus if only Emps revealed the truth to his heir to the throne.

And he’s had his hopes, dreams, and fascinations rejected, burned, and later blown to actual shards. He clung to the smallest bit of hope, the thought that something left of him being a good person was still there. He approached it, and had to fave himself, and then, understand the loss of his humanity. He wanted to be human. And he screwed up like one, so, so many times.

I watched a anime the other day and it had something similar to shards that represent different things, emotions, connections, to different parts of the person. I believe that the shard was the piece that contained all the connections between every single thing that is Magus the red.

I guess alpharius and omegon were going to have to share, I wonder if they had bunk beds?

So, this "Primarch week" is much more of a lore week, and Magnus just happens to be involved. Where are his feats, praise for his abilities, and general awesomeness despite flaws. Every other PWhas been a look into what makes them great. Magnus' week has only focused on his inadequacies.

One of the core aspects of Magnus is that the best parts of him never got to shine. He was manipulated and schemed on by an eldrich being that mfs literally call the architect of fate. He never got the chance to flex his supreme warp power, nor his incredible knowledge. That was censored in his very presence by none other than his own father. His strength was the doom of humanity. Without his reckless behavior and lack of forethought, the heresy might not have been a total L. The best ways to highlight his character is to reflect his potential against his reality. The current Magnus is a hypocrite shell of his former self, his fate twisted and altered by the very powers he was built to wield so powerfully. Everything about Magnus’ story revolves around his failure. He is a tragic character, showing his glorious moments diminishes the actual weight behind his story

Its pretty tragic hero and all. But, Magnus certainly has moments 9f true awesomenss. Things that neither of the other Primearchs achieved. To say that he didn't is really saying that the Emporer really made him to fail. All the evidence points to the direction that Big E did not. Make up whatever excuse you want.

Only the god-Emperor knows that the problem with prequels putting characters you know will survive in a dangerous situation they would certainly die if it wasn’t a prequel.

There is a huge difference between. Intending: Warn the emperor of the imperium and your father that the warmaster had fallen and an apocalypse civil war may come. Outcome: Breaking the webway you were never told existed while sending the warning. and Intending: "Arrest Magnus and his TS" by sending a demi-god furry known for being the galaxies biggest hypocrite and sworn enemy of Magnus. alongside an army of sisters of battle that specialize in killing what the TS were alongside not 1 or 2 custodians to show it is the emperor's will but armies ready to kill a legion. Outcome: The Killing of a loyal legion alongside their primarch and the burning of not only a loyal world but a world of knowledge and art rather than ignorance and fear as was and especially now is most of the imperium. You truly are a son of Russ.

Magnus was not as smart as he thought he was. Like Inquisitor Crowl told Lermantov, “I can fight!” “Yes, but you cannot listen” Magnus is a case study in good intentions paving the road to hell. The shard business? If he recovered the shard that he believed contained his goodness, he could then relegate all his bad acts to not being his true self. True to form, Magnus needed something to blame instead of taking responsibility. He didn’t realize, nor did Malcador tell him, that redemption is always available, the first step is stopping being an idiot, the second is owning what you have done, the third, learning from your mistakes/misdeeds and nor repeating them.

Underrated comment

Rogal is by far my favourite Primarch but Magnus is becoming one of my favorites after watching these

Still want to know about those last two prime archs

There was a part of the interaction between the Emperor and Olivia, where he showed her his vision of the future, his acuity. He showed her himself, locked into the golden throne in living death. He foresaw millennia of the Human race being ground down but still alive, and then one of his sons returning to lead the Imperium into the next galactic war, something that would make the Heresy look like a skirmish. The Emperor knew he was going to win the war, but at the cost of becoming locked into the golden throne, dead but holding on. Was it his plan all along? Or did he accept it as the best option after the destruction of his webway project? Did he foresee his worship (and is that why he cleared the board of all other religions)? There were some really interesting bits packed into a very small part of that book! Might be worth exploring a little.

Malcador is a perpetual so death doesn't really matter to him as he doesn't even die here but upon the golden throne

If the Emperor intended Magnus for the throne then by not telling him, by not bringing him to Terra, by allowing Magnus to even participate in the Crusade, the Emperor is at fault. The Webway was so important but the Emperor didn't do the simplest thing to ensure it's success.

The emperor should have been educating Magnus since the day they found eachother Psychically. He should have trained him personally in how to use the warp safely, and how to interpret order from chaos. He should have fine tuned his sons control to its absolute limit. His fear of Naive, inexperienced psykers was warranted, so he chose to…. Hide the knowledge his son needed from him while also denying him the very nature he was born with…. I call that pure stupidity. Magnus was ALWAYS the keystone in humanity’s rise. He should have explained the warp and it’s many different varieties of nightmarefuel to all his sons, Magnus needed that knowledge the most and the emperor strictly denied him just that. To let Magnus walk himself into the arms of Tzeentch, unwillingly dooming humanity due to the ignorance you ensured he maintained…. I’m sure whatever is left of the emperor regrets his actions with Magnus very much. Magnus was created to harness and control extreme power through the warp, yet he was denied the knowledge he needed to be able to do that safely. Bravo Emperor of Man, you doomed humanity with your own stupidity.

Magnus... 'Nuff Said...

magnus oh magnus, my love

The shard definitely was a scapegoat for him. But it was probably also vindication that he is always right. He definitely always wanted to be right

I would love it if Janus was Azariah Vidya and returned to his chapter (Corvidae/Blood Ravens) and somehow found a way to purify their gene seed. Asuryan dispersed his power into all Eldar making them more in tune with the warp and greater psykers. Ahriman did something similar with the Rubric - although it failed due to Hathor Maat's and Aforgoman/Kairos's chaos fuckery. I think it would be cool if Janus/Vidya worked like Raava from Avatar Legend of Korra, reincarnating into newer Blood Ravens at critical points in the chapter's history to guide them to victory. It is said that Alexian and Vidya may be the same person, and its tradition for most chapter masters of the Blood Ravens to adopt the name of Azariah as a title. Azariah Vidya is also known as the 'Great Father'. The shard missing from Magnus - if my memory is correct - is his most noble shard, the aspect of the father. It is also important to note that the Grey Knights and Blood Ravens - in the lore - have a close relationship, and that the Blood Ravens 'are a chapter close to the heart of the Emperor'. Their Chapter Monastery the Omnis Arcanum amplifies the astronomicon, something Magnus, the Emperor and Malcador are only able to do as they are they only ones who can sit on the Golden Throne. I would love it if Gabriel Angelos possessed the final shard of Magnus and he were to battle Magnus and somehow redeem him and die in the process - along with all Thousand Sons and Ahriman turning to dust. IDK. I'm JUST SPITTING IDEAS!
