Here you have a demigod, that is allready detached from the rest of mankind just by being a primarch, not having any socialization untill fully grown.

But where I feel like that falls apart is that the Emperor himself gave Guilliman his blessings. I mean he's even walking around slicing demons with the Emeperors damn sword, which to mention, has been sitting at his side on the Golden Throne for 10 millenia. Like bruh even the Custodes follow him and his orders when the only person they bow to or orders they even follow is the Big E's. Yeah he's probably not gonna be too comfortable with it but times have changed and I think the Lion would see that, this isn't the Horus Heresy anymore and Big E is fine with it

    Wow, I never knew the Lion like that. When I had to pick between my first founding space marines between Dark Angels and Salamanders, I thought I made a mistake since how dour they were. Which reflected their primarch since I had a hard time understanding him. Even with other loretellers But if this waa the case, then I really misunderstood Lion. He was simply loyal and sane. Nothing at all like the 40k Dark Angels. Thanks for helping me understand the Lion better.

    This is without a doubt, the greatest video you have ever produced. Lion IS awesome as you said, not just because of his abilities but because he just pops off the page and dominates every scene he shows up in. There is just something about him; his presence alone affects everyone around him and when he speaks, hell, even high-pitched battles stop in their tracks. Is he prideful and arrogant like some say? I don't know; I don't think he flaunts or revels in it... Luther once said that is simply is what he is: a unique being that is so far ahead and above everyone that it must be rather lonely for him. Definitely a marquis character to arise over the last several years and I can't wait for him to return. Cheers MK 🍻
