Filthy smut? I'm here for it

Fall

The Night Haunter awakes from a troubling portent of the future and calls on the only son he could ever bring himself to tolerate to help deal with the lingering irritation.

Inspired by the events of The Prince of Crows. These lads are very much not alright. Given the extremely NSFW nature of this fic the majority has been hidden below the cut.

Warnings: Because I forgot these a general content warning for blood and gore, "creative" use of meathooks and other torture devices, all around power imbalance, a lot of corpses, and the fractured psyches of two very broken men. Also an excess of biting and scratching. So much biting and scratching. Not to mention Curze being overly possessive.

“Fall.”

Dorn had ordered of him with such cold regard. His throat had bled. His heart had burst. He had, despite his best efforts, done just that.

To one knee he had been forced in inglorious and false supplication. There, his world had gone black, there his dreams had finally failed him. There, he had finally known a sliver of peace.

Yet in the drifting black he'd found no respite. His Son had visited upon him even there. Of all his ill begotten children, Sevatar had ever been the most persistent. Even after the horrendous failure that had left him to bear the crimson of sin, he'd refused to leave his Primarch's side.

Jago had walked with him in his dreams and now, in the waking harshness of the Apothecarion he found himself staring into that emotionless scarred face. Sevatar had ordered that all other personal, including the mindless Servitors, clear the facility. There were none others to greet nor scold him.

The Night Haunter grunted, a breathy sound that pulled through the ragged recesses of his still healing trachea. He was becoming increasingly aware of his surroundings. Of the machines that forced sterile air into his lungs, of the twitching of ruined muscle beneath his skin, of the cloying scent of his own blood. His lips moved but no words escaped, only an airy and sibilant exhalation of his own failed whispers.

“Fall.” Jago whispered softly to him. It was one word. Such an innocuous thing and yet hearing it again incited him to rage. His hand shot out in his wordless snarl and he gripped his Son's throat, squeezing until no further words could fall from those treacherous lips.

Curze shot upright with a snarl, his pale lips peeling back from his serrated teeth as he jolted out of the nightmare. He shook his head vigorously to clear the remnants of the images that had haunted his already restless dreams. He stared blearily into the dark and at the kaleidoscope of twisting colours that wreathed his ceiling like a false night. It didn't take long for the hanging bodies to come into focus, swaying ever gently as they were in the circulated air. They existed in varying states of decay, a mixture of former serfs as well as his own former sons.

Sevatar, ever the curious creature that he was, had questioned this once too. “Why do you keep them, m'lord?”

“Company.” Had been his nugatory reply. It wasn't as if he could expect the man to understand even if he were to explain it. None of them could. None of them could hear them as he did. They did not suffer the burden of his terrible truth.

The Haunter's brows knit as he slowly became increasingly aware of the silence. Even the whispers of his ever present company were still that night. Had they too seen? He wouldn't linger on it, he couldn't. It would only drive him to fugue. He reached instead for the vox-caster that rested on his bedside table, keying the private intercom without needing to look to know just whom he hailed.

“Sev,” The Night Haunter's voice rasped forth, cold and dead in the equally unforgiving darkness that enveloped him. “My chambers, now.”

“Sire.” Sevatar acknowledged brusquely in return over the vox before silence fell once more.

Curze couldn't even bring himself to find irritation in his Son's laconic manner. He had long since grown used to it. It had once mildly irritated him but other the years he'd come to accept that Sevatar was a reticent and at times, taciturn man.

He arose, silent as the very night in which he hailed. He was part way to the door when it opened of its own accord and Sevatar stepped forth. The man was, as ever, midnight clad with thin streaks of lightning arcing in stark relief across his plates like a storm plagued night. He had always found this apropos, given the storm that forever raged behind those stern black eyes. Like him, Jago Sevatarion was a predator of nocturnal guile.

He extended a hand. His pale, corpse like digits unfurled in open invitation and he watched as Sev curled two wickedly clawed fingers just above his beating hearts in the traditional subservient salute of his people. This is my heart, that gesture said, may it speak truth or be removed from mine very breast. But Curze needed no such frivolities from this man. He knew the truth of Sev's hearts even better than Sevatar himself.

He remained statuesque until his Son finally approached him. A cold gauntlet slipped into his open palm and he curled deceptively powerful digits around the smaller hand. “Strip.” He ordered softly before dropping said hand.

His Son didn't even flinch, the man merely turned from him in silence, carefully weaving through the hanging bodies as he approached his Lord's writing desk. There he removed his helm from its maglock upon his belt, setting that aside. The rest of the armour was soon to follow, every piece set aside with care. Without the Imperium to rely upon, every Night Lord was on their own when it came to arming themselves thus. Most of what he wore had once belong to a Loyalist but now as every bit indistinguishable from that of his kin. He'd taken great care in its modification over the years and it showed. He hadn't bothered with his weaponry, he had no need for it. If his Primarch wished him dead, no bolter nor even his chainspear would stop that man and they both knew it.

Curze watched this all in continued silence. His intense scrutinizing gaze bore into the man's back with every motion. Once Jago stood before him in naught but his bodyglove he approached his Son and ran one claw up the artificial muscles of his beautifully wrought back. He caught the release at the back of Sevatar's neck and tugged down the fibrous cords to reveal the true flesh beneath. Slowly, his Son turned to face him as he stepped free from the previous confines of his own bodyglove and he felt the saliva run dry in his mouth and throat as intense black eyes met his own once more.

Sevatar was a creature wrought of cold beauty, his features chiseled from the purest alabaster and forged from the cast of countless wars. Scars marred the right side of his otherwise perfect face, almost seeming to trace the line of his skull and split his brow. A vicious laceration split down his lip and twisted his expression into a perpetually smug smirk. Further scars bloomed down the man's shoulders and across one broad pectoral. Briefly, his gaze flicked aside to the red gauntlets that now lay discarded across his otherwise disused work space. His Sin Eater had once resided here but age had long since taken the wheezened Psyker from him and thus it now fell to his First Captain to weather that burden in his stead. His hands found the soft curve of muscular hips as he drew Sev close and leaned in to sniff the man's throat. He narrowed his eyes with a quiet exhalation as he found other scents there. It came as little surprise to him. Sevatar was much like him in that he seemed to like very few among the Night Lords. He'd never seen the man so much as spare one of his Brothers a lingering glance.

But Sevatar held the one thing that every Night Lord sought and coveted close to their twisted, traitorous hearts. Power. Despite this, Sevatar had ever been an unflinchingly loyal Son, even in the disappointment of his failure. He lifted a hand and caressed his knuckles down one marred cheek as the smaller man's hands found his broad torso and braced against him. He could hear the racing of Sevatar's hearts and that only further piqued his own interest. A tingle ran down his spine and curled in his gut as he shifted his weight and without warning, he hoisted his loyal Captain against his hip.

He still wore his night silks, having not bothered to arm himself since his awakening. There would be no use in greeting his cruel angel as such. He carried the man to his bed, weaving through the copse of silent company that dangled from above. Once, when the Lords still guised themselves as Loyalists, he'd left their serfs attend that room but that had long since stopped. They knew now to avoid his chambers at all costs for to enter there unbidden were to join his ever growing collection. No longer did they clad his bed in superfluous opulence. He'd long since replaced silk sheets with quilts crudely sewn from the flesh of Man. He lay his favored Son within his bed of Sin, his black eyes narrowing as he watched his Astartes sprawl beneath him in his sinuous grace.

“Sire?” Sevatar cocked a brow as he caught Curze staring. No, not Curze. Curze was long gone. This was the predatory regard of the Night Haunter, the ink draped and terror soaked King of a now dead world. His only reply was the deceptively strong grasp of slender digits wrapped around his wrists. His claws curled against his palms as his hands were pinned above his head and his Sire's teeth dragged against his throat in dark promise. The only response Sevatar received was a sharp bite and it elicited a reedy moan that broke through the unnatural stillness of his Primarch's chamber as his body arched in his shameless need.

Jago Sevatarion was not a man prone to such indulgences. He wasn't the kind of man that touched himself in some futile effort to stave off the cold loneliness of the uncaring void. Nor was he one to utilize such efforts as a means to induce sleep. If anything he still largely avoided sleep, even now, with his powers having been awoken and better understood. He was no Talos, no great Prophet. His own visions were often just as fleeting as Talos' had been in the days before the geneseed degradation had become too much for him. He, however, didn't suffer the affliction of passing out for days or even weeks at a stretch. The dreams came when he slept and then fled as soon as he awoke, like criminals fleeing the consequences of their Sins. Not all his dreams came as nightmares, however. There were nights when he dreamt of his Primarch and those strong hands, stained as they forever were in the wages of terror, having their lurid way with him just as they did now.

On those nights he would awake drenched in sweat and he would touch himself just as he wished for Curze to touch him now. But no such touch came. His Sire continued to drink his fill until the pull of it became pain within his very veins. He grunted and shifted beneath the larger man but made no move to shirk him free as he fought his own instincts telling him to deal with the threat above him. It wasn't fear, he'd long ago lost all ties to that useless fetter. It was more a sense of restless need.

A wet gasp escaped him as Curze lifted him from the very bed by his throat, clasping him by the power of those sharpened teeth alone. His eyes rolled back in his head as his back was forced into a painful arch and his Lord finally deigned to touch him. His hands were free now and yet he still made no move to struggle or grasp as sharp claws scored up his torso, as cold and unyielding as the metal hooks that hung from the ceiling above. Had he been mortal, he'd have been in trouble for the amount of blood he'd already lost but he was no such weak creature and he would not plead like some delicate thing. Dagger like claws continued to rend shallow cuts that healed nearly as swiftly as they were laid. Every cut was the excision of a perceived failure, the very weight of his sins carved in a delicious agony that made his cock twitch with increasing need. His Primarch likewise took notice and without warning he was being dropped onto the bed again. The Haunter coiled before him like a great serpent ready to strike, his black eyes narrowed to dangerous slits in the all encompassing dark.

“Just look at you, Sev. You weep like a Nostramo whore.” His Primarch murmured in a voice like the wind whispering across a grave.

“Sire?” Sevatar merely quirked a brow at that. He finally moved his hands. His fingers touched one cheek but he found only dry flesh and his confusion only grew.. That was until he felt a sharp claw caressing up the underside of his shaft and catching the precum leaking from the darkening head. Sevatar flicked his gaze down and then cocked a brow with a smarmy smirk that prompted the Haunter to withdraw his hand with a disquieted grunt.

“You aren't like this. Stop.” The Haunter warbled and it was a moment of unexpected introspection that gave Sevatar pause.

They had helped relieve each other of their stresses once before but it never seemed to surprise and on occasion, even unsettle his Sire. Konrad had grown up in a place where sex was a weapon, a tool, another means of exerting power or robbing others of it entirely.

Sevatar slowly sat himself upright, one leg tucking over to hide his lingering excitement as he caressed his claws along his Sire's jaw. “Nostramo is gone, Sire. Come back to me.” He whispered in soft knowing before pressing a hand to his Primarch's chest. The Night Haunter bared his rows of shark like teeth with a snarl of warning even as he allowed himself to be laid low for the time being. Sevatar played a dangerous game… But it was a game that he alone could engage in and hope to survive in any measure.

Survival, however, didn't necessarily warrant success. He had begun to kiss his way down his Primarch's chest when a spindly hand caught him by his shortly cropped locks and pulled him back forcefully. His breath caught as his throat worked and he froze in place atop his lord. Before he could even so much as bark in protest he was being grabbed by his throat and slammed into the wall behind the bed. His breath left him in an involuntary exhalation and his twin hearts hammered in his ears as his world momentarily became a haze of motion. He barely even heard the wet thump of the corpse hitting the floor. It was the sudden flare of delicious pain that drew his attentions as he was suddenly lifted onto a now empty meat hook and dropped down. It pierced up just beneath his clavicle, cutting sharp through the meat of his shoulder. He reached and caught the chain with a shuddered moan as his knees found his Sire's hips and squeezed against them to better support his now hanging weight.

Any mortal man, right of senses and sane of mind would have begun to scream and thrash at that juncture. But not Sevatar. He moaned hotly in his shameless need as he arched himself against his Sire. Curze was still holding him by the throat and he licked his lips in anticipation as he writhed within the man's grasp. His Lord squeezed his throat and he reveled in the burning of his lungs and the pinpricks of light that flashed across his vision. His eyes rolled back as he was released and suddenly his full weight hung from the chain as the Primarch release him. He swayed gently when the other pulled free entirely, not even granting him the succor of being able to counterbalance his own weight.

“Sire, could you at least..?” Sevatar motioned to his still free hanging shoulder. But the Haunter ignored him, only turning to face him again once he'd retrieved whatever had held his focus so.

The Haunter pulled more chains down and he finally got his much sought relief as a second hook shot up through his uninjured shoulder. He curled his fingers around the chains that now supported his full weight, his gaze heavily hooded as his Sire bent forward before him. One leg draped over the larger male's muscled thigh and he shifted his weight with an inviting rumble as he felt something cold and metallic prodding his tight hole. His toes curled and he cried out shamelessly into the acoustically amplified chamber as the bulbous object was shoved forcefully up inside him. It opened up like a flower of pain and he heard the distinct metallic click of a lock. He knew that object and it typically went in different orifice entirely, a jaw breaking device that he'd once heard aptly referred to as the Pear of Anguish.

“Who touched you?” The Haunter growled in harsh demand as he pressed his thumb against the underside of Sev's throbbing length and rubbed him roughly.

“Si-ah!” Sev arched into that much needed touch, his focus momentarily sundered under his Lord's sudden attentions. “… Sire?”

“I smell them in your skin.”

His Lord snarled in his open disgust and the sight of it sent a pleasant shiver down Sevatar's spine. He loved it when Curze acted so possessive over him, even if he tried his best not to openly show it. It flared something in his heart akin to pride. What they had couldn't be quantified as love, there was no warmth between them, no sense of gentleness. He was little more than a possession, a weapon. Curze's weapon. His Night Haunter's weapon.

He rolled his head back momentarily and licked his teeth. “Krail, Vorfan,” A brief, deliberate pause. “Lucoryphus.” That last name in particular was one of the few among them that he himself had remotely tolerated. He had, on some level been curious. The Bleeding Eyes Commander was so very far from Astartes. He still spoke like a man but he walked as a beast and Sevatar had found his mutations both revolting and fascinating. The memory of it was still fresh. The way that inhuman, prehensile cock had slipped up inside him and-

He was drawn out of his recollection by a rough hand squeezing his jaw and he quirked his lip into a smarmy, deathly rictus of a smile as he met his Lord's burning glare.

“You let that lerra sully you, like a shrilla.” Curze whispered dangerously.

“Shrilla are paid, Sire.” Sevatar snapped back.. And so did his head as he was promptly slapped. The pain bloomed exquisitely as he felt several teeth come lose. He worked his jaw even as his Primarch's fingers curled around it once more, holding him so painfully tight that he couldn't even turn his head.

“They are not to touch you again,” Curze hissed. “If they try. Kill them.”

It was a concise order that sent a pleasant shiver down Sevatar's spine. He'd never shown any qualms with fratricide and he wasn't about to start now.

“Understood, Sire.” Sevatar tilted his head as best he could into that vice grip.

Before he had time to even think his Lord was on him. He could taste the blood and decay clinging to Curze's teeth as he was drawn into a deep and claiming kiss and he freely invited his Sire in with a shameless moan, so very, as Curze liked to continually remind him, whorish.

He felt the Haunter's massive cock rubbing against his own and he pressed himself shamelessly forward, his knees squeezing against powerful hips once more. He wanted nothing more than to feel that cock up inside of him, to be split open on his Primarch's generous girth but Curze would not give that to him. That was his punishment for the Sins of his flesh. The price he was to pay for smelling like other men. He could smell it in the Haunter's very skin. That mingling of rage and disgust.

It was a realization that curled strangely in his gut, almost like fear… But he had not known fear for many long years now. This was something else entirely, something neither of them would dare ever openly admit. Sevatar would bury his face against his Sire's collarbone and accept his just punishment as claws and teeth raked his skin and harsh words of rebuke whispered into the shell of his ear.

---------------------

Sevatar had awoken to find that he was right where his Lord had left him, still suspended from the ceiling, pressed in now between two new and familiar bodies. He recognized them immediately even without their skin. Krail and Vorfan. Krail.. He hadn't much cared for. The man had wanted something from him and he'd toyed with him just to see the pain in his eyes once he'd realized he was chasing a cruel ghost. He'd been one of their younger Astartes, still just barely ascended to full status from a Scout, still so very… Human and that flaw had proved his undoing. Vorfan… He had remotely tolerated as a Battle Brother at best. But no Lucoryphus. The Haunter either hadn't caught or had for some reason or another decided to spare that one.

He licked his teeth, his throat was dry and his insides ached from the continued presence of Konrad's little toy. His shoulders also ached, supported as he still was by both hooks. He could have reached down and dealt with that insufferable little toy. The punishment certainly would've been worth it.. But Jago Sevatarion was nothing if not a patient man.

He was drawn out of his examination of his flayed Brothers by movement, his juthai’lah suddenly locking onto the skulking figure of-

“Moroehthe.” He greeted in Nostramo as he made out those familiar pale features in the dark.

“Sev,” Curze greeted curtly. “I disciplined them for you.”

His Sire was in a mood, he could already tell by the way the man approached him. He dropped his hands and danced his claws across his Sire's broad shoulders as the Haunter stepped in close. Curze had no Black Carapace to speak of, the Primarchs were above such menial things. His Lord bit his jaw and he tilted his head back invitingly as he felt one hand slipping up beneath his leg. He rolled his hip to grant Curze greater access. A loud groan of protest escaped him as Curze suddenly grasped the base of the Pear and ripped it free without even bothering to close it first. He curled his scarred lip at the squelching pop and subsequent sensation of aching emptiness. His protestations died on his tongue as the toy hit the ground with a clanking of metal and two thick, clawed digits took its place inside him.

“Still?” Curze furrowed a brow as if surprised by how swiftly Sevatar rose to attention.

“With all due respect, Sire, you did just leave me hanging here…” Sevatar couldn't quite resist and it was clear from the Haunter's expression that he may just have pushed his luck. To the man's credit, he didn't pull free and just leave him there at least. Curze wrapped an arm around him and lifted him. He took the indication and slid the hooks free as best he could. It was sloppy and painful work and at some point Curze's fingers slid free from his depths to help him. He grunted absently as the hooks finally slid free from flesh and bone and he allowed himself to momentarily slouch against the other's broad chest.

The Night Haunter lay him once more upon the bed of human skins, those of his Brothers now among them. But he cared not for that particular detail. He cared only that his Sire was climbing atop him and pressing down with his full weight. He reveled in the shortness of breath, in the way his bones ached, in the sensations of fire in his gut when his beauteous Primarch finally claimed him. There was nothing gentle in their coupling, no approximation of the flurry of biting, clawing, and clashing of flesh could even be remotely considered making love but to Sevatar, it was the closest and purest bond he had ever shared with any other living being in all of his years.

If he could feel love, it would be the raw, dedicated passion he held for the Night Haunter.

Soothing

Sanguinius/reader

Tw: Angst and Comfort

A/N: something very very short written for someone who needs to remember that a lot of people care, that you deserve to be loved and things aren't always as bad as they seem♥️

Everything was dark, cold and so so quiet.

Your chest tightened and your tears soaked the silken sheets beneath you. Each choked sob felt like you were battling to breath, to get enough oxygen in to keep your body running.

A silent wail died in your throat as you muffled yourself against the mattress, gripping the sheet in a white knuckle grip that ached your fingers. The sound of your blood thundered in your ears and drowned out the humming of the ships engine and the muted rumble of conversation far beyond your bedroom door.

You flipped onto your back, panting and blinking away tears as you clutched your chest. The sharp pain stabbing through you leaving a gaping pit in your stomach and wretching common sense from your thoughts.

It hurts

My heart hurts

It hurts so much, I can't stand it

"......ove?"

".... My love?"

Reality crashed back around you. Sanguinius face floated into view, hovering over you with worry etched across his handsome features. Your brain remained hazy, words still escaping your grasp and you watched as a single pristine feather drifted down to rest against your cheek.

"My love what happened?"

Strong arms hoisted you up, pulling you into a firm warm hug, pressing against his broad chest. With your ear pressed against the wall of muscle, you closed your eyes, listening to the rhythmic thrum of his hearts.

Badum

Slowly your heart slowed, matching the steady beat. The smothering weight of the world lifted gradually as you sank into the angels embrace, feeling kisses press to the crown of your head. Soft words that fell from his lips began to make sense with each passing second.

"It's alright"

"I'm here now"

"You're not alone"

Lifting your head, you finally met his gaze.

"I'm sorry" you whispered biting your lip, trying to stem the flow of tears.

Sanguinius smiled softly, golden hair falling about you when he dipped to kiss your forehead.

"Don't be sorry. Life can be a heavy burden to bear."

"How do you cope? I feel like my heart is breaking in half"

The primarch smiled, brushing his finger along your cheek.

"I don't. Not all the time"

The tears spilled freely and you clutched his robe, nuzzling into him as you sobbed.

"I don't want to feel like you" you wailed.

"I know. But you should. Let yourself feel everything. Every happy thought, every bad moment. Embrace every single feeling and stoke it until it feels like it will burn you up. Then let it cinder to ash and let it go like dust in the wind"

"It's too much, I can't handle it"

"You can. And when this has passed all this hurt will slip through your fingers like a passing dream"

Sanguinius held you, for minutes or hours you couldn't tell. His wings fell about you in a pearlescent cascade, wrapping you in a warm cocoon and shielding you from the world as he trailed a finger up and down your arm.

"Does it ever go away?"

His thumb paused against your skin.

"...no. human hearts are so fragile, so easy to break."

He resumed tracing small circles into your arm.

"But it gets easier. Whether the weight lessens or you simply become stronger. Each day gets a little easier"

He snorted softly, jostling you against his chest with the movement.

"Humans are so so fragile. But you are so resilient."

He was right, of course. He always was. Soon the pain faded. It wasn't gone. It still bit at your soul and snarled in the back of your mind fighting to claw back to the surface.

But wrapped in a warm embrace, surrounded by so much love and safety.

The world didn't seem so scary anymore

"I am always here" he muttered, withdrawing his wings and pulling you away from him slightly to look at your face. He ran his hand along your cheeks, wiping away the tears.

"I will always shoulder your burdens. Let me share the weight with you-"

He tilted his head and cocked an eyebrow.

"I am a little stronger than you, if you hadn't noticed"

You laughed, slapping a hand against his shoulder before dragging your sleeves across your face.

"Sorry, I must look a mess"

"You look beautiful"

"Now I know you're lying"

The angel shook his head.

"You are. You are so beautiful to me"

Cupping your face, he pressed his lips to yours in a gentle embrace.

"I love you"

🌧️🌧️🌧️🌧️🌧️🌧️🌧️🌧️🌧️🌧️🌧️🌧️🌨️🌨️🌨️🌨️🌨️🌨️🌨️

It's good to hear and thank you, really!

Horus wasn't believing her until she confirmed his suspiciouns that Emperor tried to kill her and still decided to let her go. It's really big deal because you need to have something really special or important in you for that to happen (fact that she was talking to him with hair and nightgown stained with blood). She knows she is going to die here, sooner or later, and lack of sleep and Neoth basically setting her up for being brutally tortured (if they were closer to events of heresy, Curze wouldn't be that "nice") made her snap. After all it's better to be killed by Emperor in max few minutes than live thru events of heresy and die in the Siege of Terra.

And about Emperor - he is going to keep his promise partially. I can spoil if you want, but he is going to fulfill only one of the 2 things he promised.

"From beyond the stars" Chapter 3

Chapter 2 [Chapter List]

Summary: Why it's not worth insulting the Emperor and a conversation with the main culprit of the whole Heresy, Horus.

Tags: isekai, ending up in a fictional universe, primarchxf!oc, found family trope, emperor and horus make an apperance

Warnings: mention of failed suicide attempt, cursing, typical canon violence, mention of child abuse

Word count: 2773 Edit: FOR THE LOVE OF EVERYTHIG THAT IS HOLY AND UNHOLY, I ACCIDENTALY PUT FEW WRONG TAGS, AND TUMBLR ISN'T ALLOWING ME TO DELETE THEM (*screams of despair*). no, this isn't emperor x reader fic

Unfortunately, she was not given peace of mind this time either. Before either brother had time to answer her, heavy rhythmic footsteps sounded behind them. Yelena turned toward the sound and sighed quietly. It seemed that Custodian had returned to his post. But since he was walking towards them, it meant that either they were in trouble for talking to her, or the Neoth wanted something from her.

“The Emperor is expecting you.” briefly without explanation. Of course, she could have tried to inquire, but she knew perfectly well that it would have accomplished nothing. The bodyguard of the most powerful man in the galaxy probably didn't know himself what exactly was going on. Because why share his plans with anyone? What could have gone wrong? Let's think. Ah well! All this mystery led to a fucking heresy and Neoth looking like a zombie from The Walking Dead.

“Looks like I'm in trouble. Farawell gentlemen, if I survive then I definitely need to have a chat with you.” Yelena extended her finger in front of her and moved it to none other than the primarch, after whom the aforementioned heresy was named. “Especially with you Horus.”

“Horus? I thought most baseline humans call me My Lord.”

Yelena only smiled.

The road through the golden corridors was a torture. Lack of sleep, hunger, anxiety. All this made her think she was going crazy. She had barely been here, and she had managed to insult the fucking Emperor himself and break his ban. Three times! She was not supposed to talk to the primarchs, and she talked to three of them. And also with Curz. It's a good thing the Heresy of Horus hadn't happened yet, because if she had met that version of Konrad… well, she still remembered the passage in the book about him, where he decided to murder almost the entire crew of the ship and torture the only survivor. On top of that, there was still that fucking Custodian. Not only did he not react when the Night Haunter followed her footsteps into the garden, even though the primarchs were also forbidden to go near her, but he also walked away from the site of his post-

Wait a moment.

Custodian is no ordinary soldier who simply runs away from his post to go play cards. Even if his family was dying in front of him, he wouldn't move unless the Emperor himself gave the order… THAT BASTARD.

The door to the spacious study closed behind her, and Yelena was left alone with Neoth. The man was staring at a holographic map projector of some planetary system in front of him, not even raising his eyes to look at her.

“You set me up.” Yelena didn't care about the titles at this point, feeling her rage boiling inside her. She thought that she was indeed going mad from lack of sleep.

“You said they could be saved. Testing your words was the only option. Admittedly, my plans for your first confrontation looked a bit different, but you handled everything yourself by running out into the garden. It was a matter of time before Curze followed you. From what I noticed, you are like a magnet for my sons. I was honestly surprised that none of them broke my prohibition and entered the chamber I assigned to you. But I must admit that you have done remarkably well.”

“Talking to him was "doing remarkably well"? He didn't take anything from my words, an-”

“Konrad spent the whole night talking to you.” The Emperor interrupted her, finally lifting his gaze from above the map. “That's more than his brothers accomplished in their years of Crusade together. And you managed to get him interested in just a dozen minutes of discussion together.”

“So what do you expect me to do?”

“Since you were able to get to Konrad, it should go easily with the other primarchs. You know their mentality, past and future. You know what awaits them.”

“And then what?”

“I beg your pardon?”

Yelena slowly approached the table. She didn't even think about her next words.

“Let's say I'll stop the heresy, which might be difficult, because there's a chance I'll accidentally make things worse. Great, you have your generals, you're not trapped in a golden chair, undergoing torture for ten thousand years. You've conquered the entire cosmos. What's next? Are you going to get rid of them like you got rid of the Thunder Warriors?”

Neoth slowly straightened up. Probably it was the action of his power, but Yelena felt an unpleasant shudder run through her body under his gaze. She felt so small, so insignificant. Like a bug that he could trample with his shoe. Well, and here his was a mistake. She was so familiar to this feeling, that it only fueled her rage.

“Careful…”

“Because what? Are you going to kill me?” Yelena hissed, clenching her hands into fists. “Just like you killed those who opposed you? Because so far I am the only one who knows the exact course of events of the heresy. You don't know them, otherwise you wouldn't have ended up the way you ended up in the books with the whole Imperium going to shit.”

“Don't overestimate yourself. You are not as important as you think. The fact that you're still alive is due solely to my grace. One more word and you'll end up in a cell, where I'll extract this information from you with torture.”

“Even knowing the exact course of the heresy, you wouldn't be able to stop it. Do you know why? Because you are an bad father who sees, men who blindly obey you, as tools in your Great Fucking Plan.”

After that, there was only pain. Yelena felt like her body went up in flames. Blood gushed from her nose and filled her throat, running down her chin. Suddenly standing became too painful and before she knew it, she was collapsed onto the floor, convulsing in pain. She had no idea what was happening, couldn't breathe, couldn't think. It was hard to tell how long it lasted, but suddenly everything went quiet. She was still on the floor, choking on her own blood, and standing over her was none other than Neoth.

“Maybe the world you were born into is much softer and merciful, but there are different rules here. I have killed for lesser offenses than loudly insulting me. You are weak. You are a nobody. And killing you will be like squashing an ant with a shoe.”

As if to confirm her words, Yelena felt his boot resting on her head. She wasn't stupid. She knew that he could easily split her skull, mix bones and brain. One push. That was all it took. The fact that he hadn't done it yet meant that he was giving her a chance to apologize. For her to beg for mercy.

The problem was that she felt no fear. Only rage. It was as if she was again a child being beaten by her father using his belt, trying to break her. If he wasn't able to do it, she'd sooner die than let a fucking fictional character do this. Even if she was going to die for it.

“And you're an arrogant prick whose own personality made all the perpetuals run away from him, then his sons, who loved him above life, betrayed him, and his Great Plan went to shit.”

Yelena was panting like a wild animal caught in a trap. Her eyes were wide open, and although her view was partially obscured by the man's boot, she stared ahead with almost burning gaze. Her bloody face was contorted in a grimace that she had worn more than once when dealing with bad fathers.

“I can kill you at any second, and yet you are not afraid. All I can sense from you is rage. You are filled with hatred. You say I am arrogant, yet look at yourself. Too proud to yield even in the face of death.”

Yelena did not answer him. She merely clenched her jaw, waiting for a push to fix what should have happened when she jumped off that bridge. But to her surprise, no, shock, instead she felt the pressure on her head disappear and a strong hand grabbed her arm and lifted her to her feet. Oh fuck, how painful it was. Her muscles forced to move ignited, drawing a broken whimper from her mouth.

“The pain will go away soon.”

Easy to fucking say. Yelena had no idea what was going on until someone pushed her to sit on a armchair, clearly made for the measurements of primarchs, and a silk handkerchief was placed in her hand.

“Get yourself in order.” The Emperor muttered, resting his hands on the beautifully decorated table. “You mentioned two times that… how did you put it? The Imperium went to shit. What is the fate of humanity after my sons betrayed me?”

Yelena thought for a moment about telling him to fuck off after the way he treated her, but decided she didn't feel like testing her luck any further. “Ten thousand years have passed, you are immobilized on the Golden Throne, the Imperium is attacked from all sides. It is ruled by corrupt fanatics and the Inquisition… ah yes, the Inquisition are also corrupt fanatics.” With a quick movement, she wiped the blood from under her nose and moved her handkerchief to her chin. “Chaos is attacking with new power, on top of that new enemies have appeared - Tau, Necrons, Tyranids. You almost became the fifth god of chaos, and ten thousand years of constant torture probably destroyed your psyche to the point that you were probably no longer yourself. And also they made you into a god in whose name they kill others or even themselves.”

Fucking Lorgar.

Neoth nodded slowly. “What do you expect in return for your help?”

“Excuse me?"

“You don't want to help me kill potential traitors, so I expect you to help me stop them from descending into chaos. Death threats don't work on you, so I'm asking what you want from me in exchange for your help.”

Yelena thought for a second. “First of all, nothing will succeed without your help. Be their father, even if you don't see them as your sons. Teach them about the threat from the chaos gods, explain Warp to Magnus, help Konrad with his madness. Just… take care of them. Second - when the Great Crusade is over, don't kill them. Let them live in peace, in the way they choose. Third… if you decide to kill me after all this is over, I ask that you do it quickly. Don't send me to the Astra Militarum to die there, just kill me in my sleep. So that I don't have to suffer.”

“You're not going to beg for your life? You know that I am able to make you a lord of some rich pleasure planet, or give you a place in one of my offices. Why don't you beg for it?”

Yelena shrugged her shoulders. “You will do what you think is right. I only ask that if you decide you want to kill me, that you spare me the suffering.”

“It's a deal then. I will change my attitude toward my sons, and your death will not be painful. You have my word.”

She had no idea if he was lying. He had done it many times in the books, so she could expect pretty much anything. This time, however, she did not question him. If, after what she told him, he still decided, to be stubborn, there was nothing she could do. They talked for a good hour, where she briefly had to explain to him what tyranids and tau were, but in the end, perhaps seeing that she was actually barely keeping her eyes due to the exhaustion, he took pity on her, ordering the Custodian to escort her to her chamber. Unfortunately, she couldn't have a moment of peace here either, as she was caught on the way by none other than Horus. Primarch, of course, demanded an explanation, which she refused to give him until they were both in her chamber.

“Can you explain why you insist so much that we talk in private? You run like a rabbit from me.” Horus began, watching as Yelena sat down on the bed

“Because if anyone were to hear that you were responsible for the heresy named after you, which almost killed your father, placing his almost corpse on the golden throne and led to the death of most of the primarchs, one of us would be in a lot of trouble.” The girl fixed her green eyes on him, silently hissing in pain as she moved her aching body a little deeper into the bed.

“Oh”

“Oh, definitely. The corruption wasn't necessarily your fault, but what happened next… well. The death of trillions of people, with the Imperium in shambles. Also you killed Sanguinius.”

Horus stared at her in silence. She wasn't sure if it was due to disbelief in her words, or if he simply ran out of words.

“How do I know you're telling the truth? That sounds absurd. Even leaving aside my loyalty to my father, I would never hurt my closest friend.”

“The gods of chaos make mush out of your mind. And why would I lie? It was your father who first tried to boil my blood alive and then almost smashed my head with his shoe. All because I called him out and refused to give him your name, among other things, as a potential traitor.”

Silent footsteps sounded and after a moment the mattress next to her depressed downwards under Horus' weight.

“Why did you risk so much? And if it's true… what made me turn my back on my family?”

“Well… I think each of you has a chance to avoid this fate.” Yelena took one strand of hair between her fingers, trying to brush away the dried blood that was on the tip. “Your fall to chaos was the fault of Erebus and Lorgar. You were seriously wounded in battle and a ritual was performed on your dying body. Erebus appeared to you as someone you trusted, unfortunately I don't remember the name, and showed you a vision that after the Great Crusade was successful, the Emperor would rule as a god and kill the primarchs as soon as they were no longer useful. You believed this vision, and then after talking to Erebus, you joined the chaos gods.”

“Lorgar? How long has he been a traitor? Has he already become one?”

“Has the Monarchia been destroyed?”

“No.”

“So he hasn't become one yet. I have no idea exactly where in the timeline we are, but incydent in Monarchia was actually the beginning of what I know as the Horus Heresy. Erebus, on the other hand… well, he's been a pawn of the chaos gods basically since he was a child and is currently manipulating Lorgar.”

Another moment of silence from Horus. “We need to get rid of him, but we can't openly kill him without evidence. I'm guessing that father prefers that your… origins remain a secret, so I can't use your words as evidence. I also can't attack and kill him without reason, after all he is an acolyte of Lorgar.”

“We need to talk to your brother. And actually with all the brothers. If the original heresy can be stopped, there is a chance that another of its variants will happen. From what you said, Lion is already furious with your father for giving me so much freedom.”

“Don't worry about Lion, I'll talk to him.” Horus got out of bed and walked toward the door. “You'll have a chance to talk to the other brothers, because they're all coming together for the great feast father is throwing to celebrate the tremendous victories during the Great Crusade. I, Sangunius, Lion and Curze arrived first, but from what I've heard, Magnus, Guilliman, Vulkan and Perturabo should show up in a few days. The rest will show up within a month.”

“Oh Lord…” Bonus: The collage I created for Yelena. Yes, she was a singer and performed in the theater.

Author's note: I would like to apologize for going so long without a chapter and for this one being so short. A lot has happened in my life, and college has done to me what Vulcan did to Konrad using his teleporter, which was also a hammer. In addition, the writer's block is still biting me in the ass. The plot begins to slowly unfold, and I guarantee that not every primarch will be so friendly (calling Perturapo a “manchild”? what could go wrong).

"From beyond the stars" Chapter 3

Chapter 2 [Chapter List]

Summary: Why it's not worth insulting the Emperor and a conversation with the main culprit of the whole Heresy, Horus.

Tags: isekai, ending up in a fictional universe, primarchxf!oc, found family trope, emperor and horus make an apperance

Warnings: mention of failed suicide attempt, cursing, typical canon violence, mention of child abuse

“Horus? I thought most baseline humans call me My Lord.”

Yelena only smiled.

Wait a moment.

“You set me up.” Yelena didn't care about the titles at this point, feeling her rage boiling inside her. She thought that she was indeed going mad from lack of sleep.

“Talking to him was "doing remarkably well"? He didn't take anything from my words, an-”

“So what do you expect me to do?”

“Since you were able to get to Konrad, it should go easily with the other primarchs. You know their mentality, past and future. You know what awaits them.”

If you have trouble imagining the difference in height between primarch and your oc, I recommend the movie "Gods of Egypt." The difference between gods and mortals is identical to that between primarchs and ordinary people. I am currently writing a chapter and it really helped me.

Also the main character Horus behaves almost identically to our primarch Horus lmao

THIS.

There’s a special place in hell for warhammer fans who reduce Mortarion to “being stinky” and Konrad to skinning / killing ppl…

And I don’t just mean mentioning and including these traits, because they obviously are canon things and part of these characters, but I mean every time there’s a headcanon thread, meme or anything the only thing they have to say about them is “stinky” and “murderer”, in ANY context.

Like, “what I think the primarchs would get you for Christmas” and it’s like

Mortarion: he stinks

Konrad: he will kill you

“What is the primarch’s favorite movie?”

Mortarion: he stinks too much to watch a movie

Konrad: he doesn’t care about movies, too busy killing ppl.

if you do this I want to fight you.

Like, hey, these characters have a personality…. And if you bothered just a little bit you could make things up based off this personality

If for nothing else, I’m just offended by the sheer blatant lack of creativity and imagination…

Idk if ppl are scared to accidentally say something that’s OOC and get shit for it and are walking on eggshells or if they’re legitimately stupid and lazy

Either way, the results are miserable.

For point 1, stop giving a shit about what ppl say, If someone gets mad at you for saying something they think is OOC that’s their problem, you have to grow a thicker skin

For point 2, what is there even to say…

If you don’t know these primarchs well enough to form an opinion just say that, I’m serious. “Hey I’ll skip mortarion because I don’t know enough about him to make a HC”. Or say nothing. But this kind of content is the kind of slop that makes engaging with most of the 40k fandom online exhausting

I’m being ranty because I saw a tiktok of someone doing specifically this and it was the last straw

My main anger here is with the lack of creativity and imagination.

Listen, I’d rather (and gladly) you say something that’s slightly OOC or whatever, make up your version of this character that you can write whole super detailed interesting paragraphs about and make lore up for this character in your head, then fall back on the same lazy uncreative meme stereotypes

I could go on a whole rant about how this behavior in fandom correlates with the culture of conformity in broad society and ppl’s fear to be individuals, get shit for their individuality and stand up for themselves. I see the appeal to make content about these characters with as broad of a brush as possible, draw and write them in the most uncontroversial, bland, basic way, etc - not just because it gets the most attention but also because it is the least controversial, divisive and least likely to get shit or disagreeing opinions.

Thank you! 🥹

"From beyond the stars" Chapter 2

[Chapter List]

Summary: Yelena is slowly beginning to realize how serious a situation she is in. The panic attack that follows causes her to seek solace in the imperial gardens. However, she instead encounters the Night Haunter and the first opportunities to make steps toward stopping the Horus Heresy.

Note: ship still isn't decided and most of the primarchs would have chapters decidacted to their private chat with Yelena!

Tags: isekai, ending up in a fictional universe, primarchxf!oc, found family trope, konrad curze, sanguinius and horus make an apperance

Warnings: mention of failed suicide attempt, cursing, konrad is being konrad so threats of violence

Word count: 4841

It took Yelena quite a long time to realize the gravity of the situation she was in. During this time, she managed to search the entire room. For what purpose? She was simply curious and needed something to keep her occupied so she wouldn't go crazy. After a thorough check of the drawers and cabinets, she discovered that the entire closet was empty, not counting a couple of oversize nightgowns that reached her ankles. Apparently, someone else had to bring her clothes or the Emperor didn't plan for her to stay more than a day. Bedchamber had an attached bathroom kept in colors of white and gold. In addition to beautifully scented body oils and soaps, to her surprise she found several packets of tampons and sanitary pads, and even a hair dryer. The place was better equipped than her own flat, or perhaps even her family home.

Despite all these luxuries, she eventually gave up the nagging need to bathe in the beautiful marble bathtub. As she bustled around the room, she heard at least twice that someone much larger than a human being was walking next to her door. They weren't custodians, as the footsteps were more relaxed, so that meant the news had spread and the primarchs staying at the Imperial Palace had located her bedroom. She knew these idiots too well not to suspect that eventually one of them would break the Emperor's order (which she suspected had fallen, since none dared to open the door yet). And honestly? She preferred not to be surprised by them in the bath. That's why she simply pulled off the robes she was wearing and put on a snow-white nightgown, wrapping her exhausted body in the most pleasant fabric she had ever touched, and then sunk under the quilts and blankets. Despite the fact that the bed was probably made for primarch sizes and lying on it was like sleeping on a huge cloud, slumber refused to come. There were too many thoughts running through her head, and her mind was unable to calm down. Outside, dusk had managed to fall, flooding the spacious room in darkness. Unable to endure her boredom, Yelena crawled out of bed and began to do the only thing she could think of - going through the chamber's furnishings again. She reached the desk, which had all the items needed by both a planetary steward and an artist. The second one interested her much more and soon became the cause of her small nervous breakdown.

From a drawer she pulled out something resembling a scalpel, which she quickly identified as a more old-fashioned pencil sharpener. The handle was made of carved and gilded wood, and the blade, well, she became aware of its sharpness by accident. Maybe it was a matter of fatigue, or maybe inattention, but the precious object slipped from her hand. Yelena instinctively caught it, accidentally grabbing the sharp edge with her hand. Under the pressure, her skin cracked, and a scarlet stream ran down her hand, slowly dripping onto the floor. She cursed in pain, abruptly letting go of the object and grabbed her wrist, turning it to see the wound. It was deep, the blade had bitten into her skin, leaving a gap from which blood flowed continuously. A metallic smell filled her nostrils, and her nerve endings burned from the throbbing pain.

Yelena stared dully at her hand, feeling it finally, coming to her, the realization of the situation she was in. Many people in all sorts of fandoms would give their and their entire bloodline's souls to move to a beloved universe. However, Warhammer 40k? Any fan asked would only laugh and say that they wouldn't want to be in that galaxy for any price. And she was at the fucking center of it. Surrounded by a bunch of idiots, who any moment now will decide it's high time to enter the delayed phase of rebellion against their parents and become puppets of the chaos gods. Even if the Emperor keeps her all the time in the Imperial Palace, in a few years, or maybe months, the streets of Terra will be flowing with blood. What an irony, she ends up here after a failed suicide attempt and is suddenly panicky about death. Although no, it wasn't death she was afraid of. She was afraid of confronting people she twistedly considered comfort characters, knowing what fate awaited them.

Her heartbeat accelerated rapidly, blood hummed in her ears, and breathing became impossibly difficult. Yelena forgot about the pain and her hands went to her shirt, staining the snowy white with scarlet as she tugged at the cloth as if trying to scratch a hole in her chest. Suddenly, the chamber became impossibly small and suffocating, tightening around her neck in the iron grip of an invisible fist. She had to get out, anywhere. As far away from here as possible. She didn't even think about what she was doing when she reached the door, pressing the handle in panic. Her bare feet hit the wooden floor as she ran through the halls like a wild animal. Soon her vision was blurred by the tears that began to run down her cheeks. She had no idea by what miracle, but after a few minutes of running, she reached the huge glass doors leading to the garden. None of the custodians patrolling the corridors stopped her, none even turned their heads to check what she was doing. Her wounded hand pushed the last obstacle forward, triggering another wave of sensory-dulling pain, and then she ran outside. The cold air helped her sober up enough to be able to pick a spot that looked best for hiding. She chose a huge tree that, with its branches, surpassed the other plants in the garden. With her last strength, she got there, dropping to her knees as soon as her hands touched the rough trunk.

Yelena leaned her back against the trunk and closed her eyes. Her nightgown was already all dirty from blood, soil and grass anyway, so a little bit of bark wouldn't make too much difference. Well, that was the last thing she was concerned about at the moment. I don't think she had ever had such an intense panic attack before. She couldn't catch her breath, and only broken sobs came out of her mouth. Tears streamed down her face, mixing with dirt and scarlet.

People have something like a sixth sense that tells them when someone is watching them. It's an uncomfortable feeling that causes goosebumps. As the first wave of panic eased, allowing her to think relatively soberly, despite the fact that she was choking on her own tears, Yelena felt just that. Someone was staring at her, and it was far too close. She squinted, trying to adjust her eyes to the prevailing darkness, and then she saw the outline of a silhouette in the place she had come from. It was definitely a primarch judging by the size. How did someone so large manage to sneak up on her without her hearing him. Surely it wasn't Corax, because she wouldn't have seen him in that darkness, so it must have been….

Oh fuck. FUCK FUCK FUCK. Not him. Everyone but him. Yelena wasn't ready for that. Not now, not when she didn't have a well thought out plan. Her heart squeezed even tighter, radiating pain into her chest. It wasn't that she hated him. Oh no, quite the opposite. Night Haunter was one of her favorite primarchs.

But meeting him was not one of her biggest dreams.

“Cut the bullshit Konrad. I know who you are and that you're standing there.” Yelena yelled into the dark space, pressing a healthy hand to her chest. Although she tried to sound threatening, her voice was breaking down.

Only a momentary silence answered her. Suddenly she felt a large cold hand sliding over her shoulder and his breath moving her ginger curls. Well, yes, personal space did not exist for any of these assholes.

“I think I should get that dirty tongue out first,” his voice resounded next to her ear. It was snarling, making shivers of terror run down her spine. “Then I think I'll see if the people in your world look the same after skinning as those in mine.”

Maybe Yelena would have been horrified by what she had just heard, but honestly? The panic attack had one advantage - she wasn't thinking soberly.

“Custodian is standing right next to that terrace door. How much skin do you think you'll peel off me before he gets here after hearing my screams?” Her eyes slowly became accustomed to the darkness, allowing her to see Curze's silhouette crouching beside her. Although her voice was breaking and her words were punctuated by a sound as if she were choking, mixed with sobs, she managed to convey what she wanted.

“Clever girl. Very clever.” his voice softened slightly. She wasn't sure if he was mocking again, but it looked like he wasn't really planning to hurt her. Or he had given up on that after her words. “Father said you have a great deal of knowledge about the past and future of this rotten galaxy. However, he forbade us to talk to you.”

Yelena answered him nothing to this. Her body shook and her heart pounded in her chest. However, it was not fear of Curz. Rather, what was funniest and most absurd about the situation was that the man was bringing her comfort. Her brain was still programmed to recognize him as someone close to her, as she thought of him when she recognized him as a fictional character. But now feeling his breath on her shoulder, knowing what he had done in the canonical books, she felt like she was getting a system crash.

Meanwhile, Konrad didn't seem to mind the awkward silence. Without a word he stared at her for a good minute, as if searching for something.

“I don't see your future,” he finally mumbled snootily, tilting his head slightly (or at least that's how it seemed to Yelena). “You're not a soulless blank, that's for sure. So who are you?”

Yelena opened her mouth, trying to get any words out, but all that came out of her lips was a sob. She moved her hand over her sternum, trying to control the oppressive, throbbing pain she felt there, which, combined with the burning wound on the inside of her hand, made for an extremely frustrating combination.

“So you know who I am. Good.”

“Bloody hell, I'm not terrified because of you.” The answer was quick and sharp, almost like a growl. “I'm having a panic attack.”

“Watch your tone, wrench.” Curze's voice took on a hissing tone. “If I don't scare you, I think you'll be able to tell me about your knowledge. Or I'll listen to it in between your screams.”

Well, what an idiot. He wouldn't get shit from her, because there's a custodian standing next to the terrace door, who would probably quickly separate them. However, instead of a sarcastic comment, only another sob came out of her mouth. With a trembling hand, she wiped the tears from her cheek, trying to gather herself to answer him anything.

“In my current state, I am unable to even think.” she whispered. “Let me at least calm down.”

“I don't have time for that. If I were you, I'd hurry up.”

Well, now she had a problem. Rushing someone with a panic attack only made things worse. It reminded her of when she first had a panic attack as a child and her mother, in an attempt to “calm her down,” slapped her several times in the face to shake her off. Now, however, she had to think fast. What could she do to get back to a state where she could at least think about what she was going to say while under pressure… wait a second. PRESSURE.

“Do you want to speed it up? Press one hand against my sternum and the other between my shoulder blades.”

Silence again.

“What?”

Yelena did not answer him. She blindly moved her hand forward, encountering something that resembled a cloak of feathers. She quickly found his hand and moved her fingers over it until she felt his wrist underneath them, which she grabbed, then with a jerk she brought it closer to her side. Taking advantage of the fact that Konrad was shocked by her impudence, she spread his fingers slightly and pressed her cold hand against the space under her breasts. She expected that when the initial surprise finally passed, the man would jerk his hand away and strike her, so she tried to focus as much as possible on the feeling while she still had the opportunity. However, to her own shock, she felt a second equally cold hand move across her back, pressing on the spot between her shoulder blades. Yelena let out a stifled sob, and her body shivered as if in a fever.

She had no idea how long they sat in that position. Neither she nor Curze wanted to break the silence that now fell between them, disturbed only by the quiet sounds of distress from her mouth. But soon the panic began to give way to a feeling of exhaustion and resignation. Yelena groaned quietly and leaned her head back, resting her head against the tree trunk. She was panting, mentally and physically exhausted. She had never had such an intense episode before. Her gaze went lower, looking at Konrad's hand with eyes full of tears. This was probably the first time in six months that she had had any physical contact with another human being. It seemed that her body was yearning for this feeling and found peace much faster, getting the raging hormones under control. The man also noticed the change in her condition, probably feeling how her heart, which until now was pounding as if it was about to explode, finally returned to its normal pace.

“You are the craziest person I've ever met. No normal person seeks my touch.” Konrad's voice was much quieter, resembling more of a rasp. Slowly, as if unsure of his own movements, he took his hands away from her body. Yelena heard a rustling, and judging by the sound and the placement of the silhouette's outline in the darkness, Konrad sat down next to her on the grass.

Yelena only quietly laughed. But what an absurd thing to say. She had just talked to herself with Night Haunter himself. Along with a clear mind came any ability to think logically. He and Sanguinius were her favorite primarchs. It was as if she had met her favorite celebrity! Well… only in this case, this celebrity could decide at any moment that he wanted to skin her. The situation was a good one in that, judging by the smell, or more specifically, the lack of the stench of rotting flesh and death, Konrad had not yet been driven so far into madness that he could not be saved. Some upside to the whole situation.

“Because, unlike others, I know you a bit,”

“I've heard. My father mentioned that your world sees us as fictional characters on the pages of books. Tell me, was I right all along? Did my visions tell the truth?”

Yelena was silent for a second. Well, now she just had a problem. It took her a good while to gather the right words.

“No. But also yes. Your visions, they didn't have to be true, but you following them made them true.”

“But-”

“There is no but Konrad. I'm not sure if Sanguinius has already tried to explain it to you or not yet. You don't want to listen to anyone on this, so why don't you listen to someone who has read the books from your perspective and had insight into your mind. The future can be changed… although I have a feeling you know that. You're just taking the easier route.”

There was a swish and a bang as the hand that had earlier brought her solace hurled itself with all its force into the tree trunk just above her head.

“Careful. You have no idea what you're talking about.” This time Curze's voice took on a much more menacing tone. Yelena didn't need to see his face to know how enraged he was by her words.

“When you saw Emperor, you had a vision that made you want to claw your eyes out. You are unable to trust your other primarchs because you have a vision of the Horus Heresy and the consequences of it. Brother against brother, billions if not trillions killed, the Imperium in ruins. Oh maybe how lonely and disappointed you feel by your own family.”

“How-”

“I told you. Your father told you. In my world, your fate and that of this world are written on the pages of novels, going all the to the fortieth millennium. I had an insight into your head because some stories were written from your perspective.”

Konrad did not answer for a while. Yelena only heard rustling as he took his hand from the trunk. There is some success, at least for now he does not plan to murder her. However, seeing that Curze didn't flinch to answer, she decided to continue.

“I know you have a vision of an assassin cutting off your head. I know you think that this act will prove to everyone that you are not the worst man in the galaxy at all. Because you are not the worst man in the galaxy. You have done terrible things, that's true. And here there is no dispute. You think there is no salvation for you, but that is not true. There is light in each of the primarchs, because you were created that way. There is a possibility of redemption for you.”

If she manages to fix Konrad and return to her world, she will have to apply for a license to run a psychological practice. Because that will probably make her the most talented therapist on the whole fucking Earth.

“When you killed a boy who tried to hurt a girl from an upper social caste, you saw that there was the possibility of a different future. That your path you took is not the only one. Tell me, why should I lie at this point? The Emperor told me to list the names of the primarchs who would betray him and how they would do it. I refused to tell him because I know there is a chance of redemption for you. I know that events don't have to turn out the way they are written in the books.”

“So everything I did… everything I did was pointless?”

“You were doing what you were meant to do, Konrad. You didn't have a family to teach you love, you didn't know any other touch than that which causes pain.” Yelena felt tears come to her eyes again. However, this time it was not fear, but compassion. Grief directed toward a child who had not known maternal warmth, who had to fight to survive, a child who had been destroyed by monstrous visions since the beginning of her existence. “I'm not saying you're not to blame, because you chose the easiest path, even if it was strewn with suffering. But it's not just your fault. Your decision, however, how you shape your future.”

Again, no answer. She heard his breathing speed up a bit and his fingers hit something rhythmically. Yelena wondered if she had just accidentally triggered a nervous breakdown in him. There was an option that he now had a vision of the future in which he listened to her words. After a few minutes of awkward silence, she heard rustling again and saw the outline of a silhouette rise from the ground. Well, yes, he can't kill her, so he will simply remove himself from the situation. Yelena only shook her head over her own stupidity when she heard footsteps slowly moving away. Well yes, what was she thinking, why would a grown man listen to a 20-year-old gir-

“What did you think of me when I was just a character on the pages of those books of yours?”

“Excuse me?”

There was the sound of footsteps again as Konrad decided to return to her after all. He stopped right next to a tree and judging by the sound, he was leaning against it.

“You must have hated me. Night Haunter, the demon from Nostramo.”

“Actually, quite the opposite. I liked you a lot. Don't tell your brothers, but you were one of my favorite primarchs.”

“You are indeed crazy. How did it even happen that you ended up here? Did you think you would become some kind of messiah and save us from damnation?”

Yelena quietly laughed at this suggestion. Although she had repeatedly created scenarios in her head about how she could stop heresy, she never wanted to test them in real life.

“I tried to commit suicide by jumping off a bridge into the water. The last thing I remember was the fall. Then I woke up here. My goal was death, and yet I'm here. Trying to stop heresy is just an unplanned side effect.”

“Suicide, that's a crime. You know I should punish you for it.”

Oh Yelena was well aware of this. She still remembered the chapter in his book where he tortured a woman who tried to kill herself. However, the tone of his voice indicated that he was hesitating after all. Could it be that her words had actually made an impression on him?

“Of course, you can brutally kill me at this point. I think if you're quick, even the custodian we talked about earlier won't hear me. But as an alternative to my penance, I offer a conversation. When was the last time you talked to someone who isn't a soldier or doesn't empty their bladder in fear at the sight of you?”

“There is no Custodian at the door. I saw him leave his post when I went out to the garden and he hasn't returned yet. But fine, let's talk.”

WAIT WHAT.

W H A T

THAT FUCKER KNEW IT SINCE THE START AND WAS PLAYING HER?

Yelena now understood how in a very dangerous situation she was. And I guess Curze had a good laugh at her reaction to this, because a slight amusement could be heard in his voice. What an asshole.

But she still kept her promise, continuing the conversation. And honestly? To her surprise, she discovered that the moment Konrad felt comfortable around someone, he was a great talking partner. She honestly didn't even realize how long they talked until she saw the sunrise. Now, not quite sure how it happened, they were both sitting on a tree (how the branches didn't break under his weight was also a mystery to her), and she was telling him about her past.

“…So as I said, Terra in my universe is divided into nations, called countries. I was born in a country called Poland, but at the age of nineteen, I moved to England to work in a factory. They offered free housing for workers, and I desperately wanted to get away from my home.”

Yelena tapped her fingers a few times against the branch she was sitting on. Konrad sat lower below her, glancing once at her, once at the rising sun. Now that she could finally see anything, she looked curiously at his facial features. The descriptions in the books did not lie - indeed Konrad was beautiful. It may not have been a conventional beauty like Fulgrim's, but he was as beautiful as a dark, starry night is beautiful.

Meanwhile, Curze nodded, apparently thinking about his next words. Suddenly, however, he froze in place, tilting his head to the side, toward where the entrance to the garden was located. He then looked at Yelena and put a finger to his lips, letting her know to be quiet.

Well, it didn't take her long before she understood why. After only a minute, she heard heavy footsteps and voices that she recognized almost immediately.

“The blood trail leads to the garden. Do you think she's still alive?”

“Don't make a monster out of our brother, Horus. He wouldn't kill a young woman because he was bored.”

“Do you really believe that? How else do you explain the blood?”

Yelena looked at Curze and then at her wounded hand. The cut had long since sealed itself, but apparently the bleeding must have been significant enough to leave a trail behind. The man merely rolled his eyes and smiled slightly. He apparently enjoyed watching his brothers' slight panic.

The two wordlessly watched as Sanguinius and Horus stopped under the tree they were sitting on. Yelena widened her eyes slightly, seeing how magnificent Great Angel looked bathed in the rays of the rising sun. In his case, the book descriptions were not wrong either. Then her gaze fell on Horus and moved back to Konrad. The man only smiled wider, as if even more amused with the look on her face. Well, yes, they both knew that she was in for a serious conversation with him. And Konrad wasn't going to help with that at all.

Yelena felt a strong hand grab her ankle and yank her down. Before she had time to scream, Curze covered her mouth with his hand. What the hell was he up to, pulling her down to sit next to him? And then it came to her. There were many more leaves where he had placed her, creating a sort of shield for her from their view. She had already forgotten how much he enjoyed playing with his siblings' minds.

Just a second later, Sanguinius lifted his head up, probably sensing Konrad. Horus followed his lead and tilted his head slightly. Then he asked a question.

“Curze. What did you do to her?”

Konrad did not answer him, only smiled wider. Yelena sighed, seeing this. She was not eager to talk to these two, but she had to do something. In Konrad's case it went easily because the panic attack did most of the work for her.

“Konrad stop playing with them.” Yelena muttered, shifting on a branch, intending to show herself to them. It was a mistake, however, because at that moment fatigue decided to make its presence known, and she lost her balance. Both she and Konrad were not fast enough to stop her from falling. The crack of a snapping branch sounded and Yelena lost any support, diving downward. However, instead of hitting the ground, she felt strong hands catch her in flight. Before she knew it, she was in Sanguinis' arms. The angel looked at her and a friendly smile appeared on his lips.

“I said he didn't do anything to her.” He carefully placed her on the ground, still looking at her. After a second, a bang sounded as Konrad jumped down from the tree beside them. With a movement of his hand, he adjusted his coat.

“My name is Sanguinius. The uglier one is Horus.”

“Don't make me pluck those wings.” Horus retorted and crouched down next to Yelena. “You are the main topic of gossip in the palace. Lion has been walking around angry since yesterday that Father is treating you so gently instead of keeping you in a cell.”

Angel only sighed.

“When we met in the corridor, you looked at us as if you were about to cry. Can you explain why? Since you know us and if father is telling the truth, a lot about our future, I suspect that our fate will not be favorable to us.” Sanguinis' voice was much more gentle and warm. He didn't demand like Curze, and gave her space to decide.

Yelena cursed in her mind. She looked at Konrad, who tilted his head slightly as he listened to their discussion.

“I think it will be better if I talk about this in private."

The last thing she wanted was to spoil the friendship between Horus and Sanguinis, and honestly? She feared that would be the case if anyone found out what the future and the chaos gods were preparing for the primarch of XVI Legion.

Author's note: And the second chapter behind us. I apologize for such a long wait, but I had a great deal of university assignments. On top of that I had a mild depressive episode. I hope I managed to convey the personalities of the primarchs well, because honestly it was especially difficult with Konrad (I think I read Night Haunter 3 times and the bastard has a different personality in each chapter).

Emperor have mercy on me

I adore the way you draw Curze I wanna give him a little kiss on his gorgeous nose and then braid his hair.

(I won’t go into detail for risk of turning this ask into an essay about how wonderful your art is but I’d like to give all of your primarch designs a kiss on the forehead, they’re all wonderful especially Corvus and Sanguinius)

Speaking of Kissing Konrad, here's a commission of him doing just that:

Cropped because its a tiny bit suggestive, here's full:

Thanks again for @droidrambles for commissioning me

Thank you! And I also can't wait to introduce her to Robu bc he is one of my favourites (so it definitely will be soon)

"From beyond the stars" Chapter 2

[Chapter List]

Note: ship still isn't decided and most of the primarchs would have chapters decidacted to their private chat with Yelena!

Tags: isekai, ending up in a fictional universe, primarchxf!oc, found family trope, konrad curze, sanguinius and horus make an apperance

Warnings: mention of failed suicide attempt, cursing, konrad is being konrad so threats of violence

Word count: 4841

But meeting him was not one of her biggest dreams.

Maybe Yelena would have been horrified by what she had just heard, but honestly? The panic attack had one advantage - she wasn't thinking soberly.

Meanwhile, Konrad didn't seem to mind the awkward silence. Without a word he stared at her for a good minute, as if searching for something.

“I don't see your future,” he finally mumbled snootily, tilting his head slightly (or at least that's how it seemed to Yelena). “You're not a soulless blank, that's for sure. So who are you?”

“So you know who I am. Good.”

“Bloody hell, I'm not terrified because of you.” The answer was quick and sharp, almost like a growl. “I'm having a panic attack.”

“Watch your tone, wrench.” Curze's voice took on a hissing tone. “If I don't scare you, I think you'll be able to tell me about your knowledge. Or I'll listen to it in between your screams.”

“In my current state, I am unable to even think.” she whispered. “Let me at least calm down.”

“I don't have time for that. If I were you, I'd hurry up.”

“Do you want to speed it up? Press one hand against my sternum and the other between my shoulder blades.”

Silence again.

“What?”

“Because, unlike others, I know you a bit,”

“I've heard. My father mentioned that your world sees us as fictional characters on the pages of books. Tell me, was I right all along? Did my visions tell the truth?”

Yelena was silent for a second. Well, now she just had a problem. It took her a good while to gather the right words.

“You are indeed crazy. How did it even happen that you ended up here? Did you think you would become some kind of messiah and save us from damnation?”

Yelena quietly laughed at this suggestion. Although she had repeatedly created scenarios in her head about how she could stop heresy, she never wanted to test them in real life.

“Suicide, that's a crime. You know I should punish you for it.”

“There is no Custodian at the door. I saw him leave his post when I went out to the garden and he hasn't returned yet. But fine, let's talk.”

WAIT WHAT.

Just a second later, Sanguinius lifted his head up, probably sensing Konrad. Horus followed his lead and tilted his head slightly. Then he asked a question.

“Curze. What did you do to her?”

“My name is Sanguinius. The uglier one is Horus.”

Angel only sighed.

Yelena cursed in her mind. She looked at Konrad, who tilted his head slightly as he listened to their discussion.

“I think it will be better if I talk about this in private."

Thank you so much!

"From beyond the stars"

Chapter 1

[Chapter List]

Summary: A girl from our world finds herself in a Warhammer universe in the 30th millennium. After a not-so-pleasant awakening, she faces a confrontation with none other than the Emperor of Mankind himself.

Tags: isekai, ending up in a fictional universe, primarchxf!oc (check note in the end), found family trope

Warnings: mention of failed suicide attempt, cursing

Word count: 3340

The first thing that came to Yelena's senses was the fact that it was… strangely quiet. Sure, she could hear the humming and beeping of machines, but nothing else. No conversations, no footsteps in the corridor. For a while she even thought that her suicide attempt had succeeded and she was now in some limbo or other shithole where she would have to listen to the annoying beeping for the rest of the world for her sins. After that, in addition to her hearing, her other senses began to work. She felt that her body was being enveloped by a quilt, made of a pleasant material despite its roughness, and that she was lying on a rather firm mattress and an exceptionally soft pillow. Then came the smell, and with it the sterile scent of disinfectant. Yes, this was definitely a hospital. Just why the hell was it so quiet?

Yelena tried to open her eyes, which proved to be a very difficult task. At any attempt to move, her body seemed to stand in hellish flames, radiating the worst pain she had ever felt. It was as if she had woken up from a long coma and had to learn all over again how to control her own muscles. Then she felt fear. The most primitive fear, like that of some animal. Something was wrong. Very wrong. She had no idea what it could have been about, but her mind was going crazy. She wanted to scream, whine, scratch her eyes out, curl up to hide vital organs or, preferably, jump off that bed and look for a small, sheltered space to squeeze into. She was not safe, everything was wrong. She didn't belong here, no, she needed to take shelter, hide, escape. Feelings of terror and panic flooded her like hot lead, sealing and burning her throat, suffocating her. The beeping of the machines became more and more unbearable with each passing second, like knives digging into her mind, torturing her, an invisible hand on her chest, pressing her to-

With the opening of her eyes, everything suddenly disappeared. Panting, like a wounded animal, she slowly rose to a sitting position and looked around. The room she was in appeared like a hospital room. The machines, on the other hand? That's another story. They were just… strange. Granted, the last time she was in a hospital was about seven years ago, but it probably shouldn't look like that. Second, why the hell was it so quiet in here? She should have heard at least some footsteps, not to mention other typical hospital sounds. But there was nothing. No voices, no rustling. Nothing, just the cursed beeping of the machine. She moved her hand, wanting to lift the quilt and get up, but felt resistance.

There were leather straps around her wrists, which were connected to the bed frame by some elongated piece of elastic material. Same for her left hand.

Ohh fuck fuck fuck. She was in so deep shit.

Apparently she ended up in a mental hospital and even more so in solitary confinement. Fuck, as if it couldn't get any worse, she looked down and saw that she was dressed in a white hospital gown. Great, that means someone else had stripped her down and dressed her in the thing. She was naked, not counting the thin material, and pinned to the bed. For a few seconds she considered trying to open her bonds with her teeth, but a quick inspection showed that they were too well secured.

A hiss. The sound of footsteps.

Yelena flinched, violently pulled out of her panicked focus by an unexpected new sound. She raised her eyes to see that a man dressed in a white coat was standing in the doorway. The first thing she noticed was that it was difficult for her to determine his age. He might as well have been in his late 20s or early 40s. Dark eyes, tanned skin, handsome face, long black hair tied in a ponytail. He was quite tall, but nothing… unusual? His movements were very calm and slow, and there was a slight, warm smile on his face. It was as if he was approaching a wild animal, not another human being. Although Yelena was not much different at this point from the terrified prey, who, driven into a corner, waited until the predator finally decided to lunge at her and rip her throat out.

“I apologize for this inconvenience. While you were unconscious, you had a seizure of spasms, which made us have to tie you up so you wouldn't hurt yourself.” The man's voice was low, but at the same time very pleasant. Again, a reference to the fatherly attitude popped into Yelena's head. She tensed up as he approached her, and the man, seeing this, held out his hands in a peaceful gesture. Slowly, as if he didn't want to frighten her even more, he unbuckled her right hand. Then he rested his hand on the edge of the bed and leaned over, reaching for her left wrist, and after a moment Yelena was free. However, she didn't dare move even a millimeter until the man took a few steps away, slipping his hands back into his coat.

“Can you talk?”

It was a strange question for a doctor. In general, the man was strange. His accent was strange. Even his fucking aura was strange.

Yelena concentrated, trying to gather herself to say something. Only now did she realize how dry her throat was.

“Yes.” her voice, even as she practically whispered, was hoarse. She forced herself to swallow her saliva, in an effort to provide any hydration.

“Good. What is the last thing you remember?”

It was a very good question. If she was now in a mental hospital, chances were that it depended on him whether she could avoid spending the next few days there.

“I leaned over the railing on the bridge and lost my balance. I fell over the railing and then the last thing I remember was the impending water.” Yelena was a good liar. A really good one. But something in the man's gaze made her feel as if he had just caught her at it. However, instead of confronting her story, he just smiled slightly. Again.

“How much longer are you going to pretend to be a doctor and play this game, My Lord?”

Yelena turned toward the sound and-.

WHAT THE FUCK.

In the doorway stood an old man dressed in simple pale robes, looking at the “doctor” and at her with something like irritation. It was completely absurd, but the first thing she thought of was the fact that the man reminded her of a Warhammer 40k character named-.

“Malcador, I told you to…”

Yelena didn't listen further. As if burned, she jumped off the hospital bed, ignoring the pain in her muscles, and pushed it to the middle of the room, creating a barrier between herself and the two men. No, that didn't make any sense. It was some kind of joke. A hallucination. She had hit her head and now had brain damage. Or she was in a coma and just dreamed it.

“What the fuck. What the actual fuck.”

If it was a hallucination, why was the English he used so strange. Like, different sounding. She must have hit her head pretty hard. However, everything seemed so… real. She felt the cold tiles under her feet, the panic that flooded her body was as real as possible.

The pseudo doctor merely sighed, still not moving from his seat.

“I was planning to tell you a little more gently. From what I've read from your mind, our world is just a product of fiction, written on the pages of books, and believe your arrival is just as shocking to us-”

“Shut up. What the fuck are you talking about. It's just a hallucination, after all, there's no way anything like that could have happened. HE…” Yelena pointed an accusatory finger in Malcador's direction. “He…”

Wait a minute. Malcador was dead in the fortieth millennium. And he definitely did not address anyone as my lord, unless….

Neoth. The fucking Emperor of Mankind.

She just told the fucking Emperor of Mankind to shut up.

“You know one of my names. One of the many secrets you shouldn't have. And I hold no grudges for your words.”

Malcador just shook his head.

“Saying outright that you can hear her thoughts is unlikely to help the whole matter, My Lord. Look at her, she looks like, her heart is about to explode.”

Well, the old man's words were not far from the truth. Yelena felt as if her heart was indeed about to explode. Or her head. Or all at once. It didn't make the SLIGHTEST sense. NO SENSE AT ALL, ACTUALLY.

“Okay. Okay. Let's assume that you are not a product of my imagination. How the hell did I get here. And which millennium is it anyway, since Malcador is alive.” Yelena couldn't even think of using any sort of titles. Not now. She still couldn't believe what she was seeing.

“This conversation should wait until you calm down. Someone will bring you your robes right away, and in the meantime you should try to get yourself under control. I don't want to calm you down by force, so if possible, calm down, child.”

Well, doing so was not so easy. But just an hour later she was sitting in a comfortable, richly decorated armchair, wearing a soft tunic and wrapped in a fluffy blanket. In her hands was a steaming, creamy drink whose taste made her think of hot chocolate. She was told to wait here and the door was closed. So she had been waiting for the last twenty minutes, hearing hurried footsteps in the hallway. It wasn't enough time to grasp with her mind what had actually happened, but at least she managed to come to terms with the fact that it wasn't a dream. She had never seen the inside of the Imperial Palace (as it was clear from her deduction that this was where she was), and the decor of the place was completely different from what she had imagined. She had a chance to see the Custodians, and as they led her here, she passed at least three clocks along the way, and from each she could easily read the time, which matched in every clock.

That is, in short, she was fucked.

She was snapped out of her reverie by the turning of the key in the lock. After a moment, the door opened and there stood in it none other than Neoth himself. The doctor's coat had been replaced by rich robes, and long black hair flowed freely over his shoulders. However, his face, height and figure remained the same.

“I see you are slowly accepting the latest information. Good. We need to talk.” The emperor closed the door behind him and sat down in the chair on the opposite side. “You have many questions, but so do I. We'll do it like this. Once a question is asked by me, once by you.”

Yelena only nodded, not trusting her own voice.

“Good. So to answer your question, you are in the 30th millennium. And to answer your next question, which you would probably wish to ask. Yes, I have already created primarchs, but none of them have betrayed yet.” Neoth rested his hands on the armrests and looked at her with a slightly stricter gaze. “And before I ask my question, I expect you to be completely honest. You lied to me once. Don't try to repeat that mistake again. Tell me, what are you going to do with the knowledge you have?”

“I don't understand.”

“You possess knowledge about me that not even my closest friend knows. Knowledge that can harm my cause and me. What are you going to do with it. I'm not able to control your memories, so I can't just erase it.”

It was a very good question on which her life depended. Although the Emperor did not say it directly, Yelena was well aware that he was considering at that moment whether he should kill her or take the risk. She knew him too well, at least as a fictional character.

“And what should I do? Summon Tzeentch now and tell him your secrets? Or go to the cultists and give them this knowledge? I have enough knowledge of this galaxy to know how those who side with chaos end up. Xenos? The Orcs are not interested in that, and the Eldar would treat me like an animal, because I'm human. I have no one to turn to, even if I wanted to. And making an enemy in the most powerful man doesn't seem like a good idea at all.”

The emperor merely nodded. His facial expression hardly changed, except that he looked a bit more deep in thought.

“Your question.” It looked like he wasn't going to inform her so far whether he would leave her alive.

Yelena took a slightly deeper breath and put her cup down on the coffee table. What could she ask him? She had so many questions that she couldn't even formulate one.

“Why this form? I know that most of the Imperium knows you a little taller and in golden armor. I also know that neither the current one nor your official one is your true form. So why did you choose this one? You could have instantly changed into a huge man in shining golden armor and-”

“And give you a heart attack, child?” a gentle smile appeared on the Emperor's face. “The human psyche is fragile. I decided that the best choice for you would be someone less… intimidating. And warmer.”

Yelena slowly nodded, taking in this information. Well, yes, it made sense. Neoth, or whatever his real name was, was choosing for himself what form he showed himself in. Merciful on his part. A little too… merciful.

“And your question?”

“I wasn't able to get details out of your mind about heresy and the future. Maybe it's a trick of the chaos gods, maybe it's a prank of Warp, or maybe it's a merit of your mind, because I know you have quite warm feelings towards my sons.” The look the Emperor gave her, made Yelena momentarily regret that she had ever read any Warhammer fanfiction in her life. “I want you to give me the names and reasons of my sons who betrayed me."

“No."

“No?”

Yelena had no idea what she was doing. But every cell in her body was screaming not to give him this information. She saw that his gaze became stern again, and the Emperor straightened up in his chair. She was treading on very thin ice. One wrong word and her head would be separated from the rest of her body.

“I know that if I give you this, you will kill them. But if the heresy hasn't happened yet, that means there's a chance they can be saved.”

“You know who I am, and yet you're taking a risk by defying me to protect men you've never met.” Neoth tilted his head slightly. “You're an interesting person. Very interesting. And at the same time extremely brave and so kind as to be deemed foolish.”

The emperor mused for a moment, as if considering something.

“Good then. We will return to this conversation the next day. I know enough.”

Seeing that he was rising from his chair, Yelena also got up quickly, throwing off her blanket.

“Wait. What's going to happen to me? Are you going to kill me?”

Neoth stopped in place and looked at her. A slight smile spread across his face again.

“You passed my test, so for now you don't have to worry about death. In addition, it's been a long time since anyone around me disregarded all rules of ethics and royal protocol by speaking to me in such a familiar manner. That's… refreshing. I think I'm starting to like you. Come, child, I'll take you somewhere where you can rest.”

Well, yes, fucking titles. Yelena should have addressed him in a formal way, using “my lord.” However, in the turmoil of emotions she felt since she learned the truth, she didn't even think about it. Fortunately, it seemed that the Emperor didn't mind. Neoth opened the door and walked out of the small office. Yelena immediately joined him, but as soon as she looked out into the corridor, the friendly man disappeared, and in his place was a giant in armor so golden that she thought for a second that she would go blind. It seemed that that form there was reserved only for her.

The Emperor put his hands behind his back and started walking ahead, a silent command for Yelena to follow him. So she did. They walked in silence for a good few minutes before two figures she almost recognized appeared before her eyes. Much taller than any mortal could be, handsome in face and well built. Even without their powerarmor, any fool would have figured out who they were. Horus and Sanguinius. She had seen a lot of fanart depicting them, but none could even compete with what they looked like in person. The men strolled along, discussing something until The Great Angel spotted her. Almost immediately he fell silent, staring at her visibly surprised by what he saw. Horus, after a second, also looked in her direction and opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but eventually abandoned the idea.

Yelena felt her throat constrict and tears gathered in her eyes for some reason. Now she understood how much of a curse the knowledge she possessed was. Unable to withstand their gaze, nor wanting to accidentally cry, she sped up her step and drove her gaze to the floor. Fortunately, they immediately disappeared around the corner, losing sight of the two sons of the Emperor. Neoth didn't say anything upon seeing this, continuing to walk at a rather fast pace until they stopped in front of an ornate door made of dark wood.

“We are in the guest wing. You have all of it at your disposal, along with the garden, but don't go outside this area. And in particular, don't hang around my sons' chambers. You are a very curious phenomenon for them, and their curiosity is often… dangerous. You will find everything you could possibly need in your chamber. Meals will be delivered to you by the servants. Malcador will probably cuss me out for not keeping you in your cell, so for now try to stay out of his way.”

Then, without a word of goodbye, the Emperor turned and walked away in the direction from which they had come. Well, it could always be worse. Taking a deep breath, Yelena opened the door and entered her new bedroom. If she had been in a better state, she would probably have been stunned by what she saw. A chamber larger than her crappy apartment where she lived in her universe. A large window with a view of the huge garden, a massive bed in the center, obscured by a canopy, a desk, a closet, a fluffy carpet, a cabinet filled with books. Everything in a style that she associated with the Baroque era. Well, not counting the strange TV on the wall. Yelena walked over to the bed, opened the curtains and sank her back on the fluffy quilt.

Oh she was so fucked.

Author's note

First of all, so far I am writing this from the perspective of oc, because I have no experience in writing x reader. However, if there is such a demand, I will try to change the style to x reader (which I can't guarantee will work, because, as I said, I have no experience in this).

Second: let me know if you want more information about Yelena because I have a lot of lore for her!

Sure thing, I will add you. And thank you so much!

"From beyond the stars"

Chapter 1

[Chapter List]

Tags: isekai, ending up in a fictional universe, primarchxf!oc (check note in the end), found family trope

Warnings: mention of failed suicide attempt, cursing

Word count: 3340

There were leather straps around her wrists, which were connected to the bed frame by some elongated piece of elastic material. Same for her left hand.

Ohh fuck fuck fuck. She was in so deep shit.

A hiss. The sound of footsteps.

“Can you talk?”

It was a strange question for a doctor. In general, the man was strange. His accent was strange. Even his fucking aura was strange.

Yelena concentrated, trying to gather herself to say something. Only now did she realize how dry her throat was.

“Yes.” her voice, even as she practically whispered, was hoarse. She forced herself to swallow her saliva, in an effort to provide any hydration.

“Good. What is the last thing you remember?”

It was a very good question. If she was now in a mental hospital, chances were that it depended on him whether she could avoid spending the next few days there.

“How much longer are you going to pretend to be a doctor and play this game, My Lord?”

Yelena turned toward the sound and-.

WHAT THE FUCK.

“Malcador, I told you to…”

“What the fuck. What the actual fuck.”

The pseudo doctor merely sighed, still not moving from his seat.

Wait a minute. Malcador was dead in the fortieth millennium. And he definitely did not address anyone as my lord, unless….

Neoth. The fucking Emperor of Mankind.

She just told the fucking Emperor of Mankind to shut up.

“You know one of my names. One of the many secrets you shouldn't have. And I hold no grudges for your words.”

Malcador just shook his head.

“Saying outright that you can hear her thoughts is unlikely to help the whole matter, My Lord. Look at her, she looks like, her heart is about to explode.”

That is, in short, she was fucked.

Yelena only nodded, not trusting her own voice.

“I don't understand.”

The emperor merely nodded. His facial expression hardly changed, except that he looked a bit more deep in thought.

“Your question.” It looked like he wasn't going to inform her so far whether he would leave her alive.

Yelena took a slightly deeper breath and put her cup down on the coffee table. What could she ask him? She had so many questions that she couldn't even formulate one.

“And your question?”

“No."

“No?”

“I know that if I give you this, you will kill them. But if the heresy hasn't happened yet, that means there's a chance they can be saved.”
