THE EMPEROR INTRODUCES FERRUS TO VULKAN
Hi all Wolf Lord Rho here... It's time for some Primarch talk!
Today we are discussing Primarch of the Iron Hands, Ferrus Manus' first meeting with his brother Vulkan. Primarch of the Salamanders.
These events are from the short story "Mercy of the Dragon" by Nick Kyme. As always I really recommend you read the story for yourself first. Not only do you get the most enjoyment this way, but we help to support the great black library and games workshop. Link: www.blacklibrary.com/new-titl...

Little known fact: "The flesh is weak" is sth Ferrus got from Vulkan. But the whole quote is " the flesh is weak but deeds endure."

Unfortunately Ferrus' legion perverted the statement to justify replacing their body parts with machinery at every opportunity. I guarantee you he would be disgusted with what the Iron Hands have become.

@@saltedllama2759 i think they went bat shit only after daddy Ferrus died. The IH did some daaaaark shit to thenselves, not bc they thought flesh was weak, but bc most of them were so ravaged by the constant war on the traitors that their bodies couldnt keep up. But instead of dying many of them would turn to soulless automatons just to be able to keep fighting. Pretty sad if you think about it. All that shit bc of a love for a father who really didnt care all that much for his legion.

Reminder that Khan is probably the most honest and straight-talking Primarchs and he outright states that the two of his strongest brothers are Ferrus and, surprisingly, Mortarion. Ferrus is too soon removed from 30k to get a good scope of what he could do, but let's remember, that he's the only Primarch that canonically "tested" himself against the Emperor. Not "lost", but "tested against". Let that sink in. Fulgrim got a sucker punch in.

This sounds weak.
I love the part where Ferrus mentions Vulkan’s armor. It shows the difference in ideology, Ferrus builds practical war gear with not much emphasis on artisan ship whereas Vulkan builds gear to look good aswell.

Emperor: Also you have another bro who's yellow and loves to play fort. And another bro who's a smurf and loves to tell everyone else what the rules are for playing fort. And you have a whole bunch of other bros who like playing knights and will guard your fort. Also Emperor: And you have a whole bunch of bros who want to break your fort and steal your legos b/c they're jealous bullies. Try not to kill your brothers over legos.

Meduson is mainly about tge shattered Iron Hands legion and their struggle to survive. Angel Exterminatus is about Fulgrim and Perturabo and a renegade IH team attempting to kill Fulgrim. It also features the most badass Raven Guard you'll ever see. The Seventh Serpent is about the IH and Alpha Legion. There is one particularly sad story of a IH discovering old commrads so heavily augmented that they were barely human but forget what its called. I dont want to go into detail bc of spoilers. Maybe someone can help out.

Wolf Lord Rho, you've managed to put me in the "Emperor did love his sons" camp. Granted, he can be distant, but you're right. It's little moments like this were he's just smiling to himself thinking, "Oh you boys" when things like Ferrus being the hard-as-nails dude he is jumps straight to judging the armor before he judges his brother.

Honestly, I don't get people who conflate all of them. Big E had many human flaws, and any father with that many sons is gonna like some more than others.
I love how informal Ferris is with the emperor in that passage. I would imagine Ferris would be good to drunk with.
It seems that the more "human" and down-to-earth a Primarch is, the more the Emperor liked them.

VULKAN: VULKAN SMASH! Farrus: HOLY WAR HAMMERS BATMAN! The Emperor: exactly.
The real question is did Vulkan give his Brother a big hug!
Vulkan, Ferrus Manus, and Perturabo where in all intents and purposes meant to be the Emperors architects and builders, meant not only to unite the empire but too forge it into something glorious and beautiful. One can only imagine what the Imperum of the forty first millennium would have looked like had the heresy never taken place.

I do love any Great Crusade stories we get. Personally far more interested in that time period over the Heresy.

It's interesting to hear that ferrus expected and seemed to want a blacksmith for a brother instead of a warlord..
I was waiting for you to say than "Vulken hugged Farrus"
Nick Kyme always does Ferrus justice.
I have just read the story and I must admit vulkan has to be my favourite primarch he's possibly the most intimidating physicaly to behold out of all his brothers due to his massive size complection and colour of his eyes but his humanity shines threw fantastic story and brillant post
I eagerly await the return of the most human primarch of them all.

BL should hire you to do the audiobook options
Imagine what dorn, perterabo, vulkan, and ferrus could build together. They would make a fortress that couldnt be invaded, defenses that would never cease, and seige engines that would never falter. What a waste of such talent....
Yes, that last part reminded me of when the emperor summoned Ferrus in the webway against the forces of chaos (Feruus was dead in the material world). Imagine e well made and catered with film about these scenes and characters ... And thank you for these amazing lore / audiobook type videos. Have been here for a while but hadn't got to thank you till now.
vulkan and magnus are my favorite primarchs always to love to hear more about them
Masters of the forges meet
Impressive storytelling Mr. Wolf
Another excellent video, thank you! I am a fan of the primarchs and these two are some of the more interesting ones, they just seem to have more depth to them than one would think at first glance. It is a shame that Ferrus Manus died so early on in the heresy as I would have loved to see his character fleshed out even more. Oh and Vulkan lives.
As a Ferrus Manus fan, I'd love to see what your take/perspective of things would've been like in a what-if-scenario video about him. Over what would've happened in the long term of the Horus Heresy if he survived and escaped the Dropsite Massacre like Corax did. As I imagine if he didn't get killed off as soon as he did, his presence on places like Terra would've had a massive impact on how the climax of the Horus Heresy would've ended.
Thank you. I love hearing about the Primarchs. Your every video is an encouragement to learn more! And you're not wrong about Ferrus suffering from bad writing - he needs some rehabilitation! :)

Would really love a fight scene with the emporer and all the primarchs fighting together against some enemy. Would be super cool but prolbely unlikely as it would be overkill.
Dunno why but I got huge vibes of Qui-Gon Jinn and Obi-One Kenobi with the Emperor talking to feris there. Maybe the description of his sword catching fight made me think of light Sabres but you can just see them doing a Jedi leap down a cliff edge after that
Hey man I really love your videos especially about the primarchs and I'd like to ask as a Mortarion fan myself, could you be able to make a video of Mortarion, specifically Mortarion before and maybe during the heresy because I'm really interested how he interacted with his brothers.

What if.... Vulcan is the son the Emperor wants on the throne when he passes the torch? Vulcan is unique in that he cares about building, repairing, and people. Vulcan isn't a blood thirty mutant like the wolves, vampires, and wizards. He isn't as callous as some of the others. Guillemon would seem like the most logical choice with his skill set and abilities to coordinate and magistrate.
