I love how no BS Dark Elves are with Chaos, they will use them only as far as it will suit them, and then ruthlessly wipe them out from their lands; Morathi nonwithstanding

Anyone else find the story of Malekith and his dwarf friend totally heart breaking? Genuinely made me feel bad for the guy, and feel bad for how Melekith's promise to his friend turned out.

You mean the same guy who was willing to ally with Slaanesh cultists (you know the same gods who loves consuming Elf souls), mobilized a traitorous army when things didn’t go his way, murdered the old Phoenix king, and had kill many other nobles who dared to call him out on his blatant regicide?

I never did see him as evil, yes he does some evil things but like or more accurately mirroring D.Vader he is a very conflicted individual, akin to the classic greek characters of the old stories and poems, I for one think he would make a great Pheonix King!

well between having his kingdom usurped, his best friend dying, his wife disappearing, being badly burnt, his mum being a bitch as well as a technical traitor, for ever being in cased in steel never to be able to take it off, viewing the horrors of the chaos warp first hand... all that had a factor but the crown was just the final nail in the coffin

He was tainted by the sins of his father. Anaerion wielding the Sword of Khain corrupted Anaerion's genealogy that he would pass onto his son. Malekith was unfortunately corrupted before he was even born. Combine that with the fact that Morathi was probably a chaos worshipper even before his birth and how chaos also probably corrupted her and thats gonna make for a fucked up child.

@6XenYang9

Malekith was never corrupted. He was ambitous and prideful just as any other elven prince and probably more rightfully so then all of them. He grew desperate at every affront that Bel Shanaar trow at him, and to discontempt, disperation added the moment that in searching for a sign of the gods of his power he found the circle. He acutally always was agaist spiritualism and enslavement of mortals to the gods he was so strongly willed that he resisted the widowmaker at the foot of his altar. The circlet made him understood the true manace that where the ruinous powers and how the elves would never been prepared under Bel Shanaar. The time for inaction was over he was to take power not only to preserve his father legacy and stop the cults that have thrived in hedonism with society decadence. Asurian judgment changed everything. The God that made his farher king rejected him upon his sacred flames, all the benevolence that and good will in him die that day and soon all of Ulthuan will burn in a mad, tragic and terrible act of revenge.

Nice lore video, as somebody with very limited knowledge of everything in and arround warhammer i considered Malekith as the pure evil untill now cause this story has certainly changed my view allot. In a way he is pure evil and yet isnt, as mentioned here allready darth vader comes to mind only with a much more complex story. Certainly one of the most intresting (and complex) character in the warhammer universe.
