In case anyone is curious, here's the passage itself, taken from Know No Fear.

Very much the perfectionist when it comes to his own written word and how it is proliferated.

#sorry if this is overstepping #i have always found this passage interesting #but also i understand why he would be so insistent upon complete and total perfection given how much power words have within the warp itsel #this is supposed to be The Book on the nature of chaos #even a minor error like a comma that is missing or misplaced can absolutely change the context and meaning of a sentence #however i dont think that uh. fucking disemboweling someone for such a thing is necessary.#''or worse''#obviously this is warhammer so primarchs are warcimes mcgee I-XXI. but still. dude.#taking a page from konrad i see #the hermit awakens
