Lorgar had a trance dream.
In his dream, he saw the entire galaxy burning.
In his dream, he saw his brothers turning against each other.
In his dream, he saw everything about the empire falling apart.
The rationality of the past is gone.
Destruction was induced in ways no one could have imagined, and destruction spread on an unprecedented scale.
The sea of stars boils and the stars fall.
Until all the efforts are in vain, until all the good things are burned down.
…
Lorgar stood up suddenly in panic.
Warm sweat dripped slowly down his angular cheeks, and the color of fear still reflected in his sleepy eyes.
——...Nightmare?
It wasn't until a moment later that Luojia realized that everything he had just seen was just a dream.
But the scenes in those dreams were so real that his spirit was almost immersed in them, and even some burning phantoms still remained in his vision.
And the burning phantom gradually overlapped with the promethium candle flame.
When the two reunited in Lorgar's dilated pupils, all the illusions in the dream seemed to disappear.
Now, in front of Luojia, there are only files and documents that need to be corrected urgently, as well as ink that exudes a strong smell.
There was no splatter of flesh and blood, no disintegrating bridge, no crazy and chaotic whispers.
In the quiet room, there were only a few flickering candlelights.
It seems that it was just a false alarm.
The dull breathing of the Primarch echoed in the room, and the thunderous breathing was comparable to the sound of a powerful machine operating, so much so that the Lord of the Red Sands, who was immersed in his work beside him, slowly raised his head.
"It seems you didn't rest well?"
Seeing Luo Jia's sleepy look, Elaine raised her eyebrows slightly.
"…I'm dreaming about those things again."
Luojia sighed slowly.
"Once again. Once again I dreamed of those scenes...those...a future where the stars burned and reason collapsed..."
From Luojia's tone, it was clear that this was not the first time.
Since Magnus confirmed that Lorgar's old friend was fine, the Lord of the Fifteenth Legion left, and Lorgar and Elaine began to continue their work.
During these days in Colchis, Lorgar was troubled by some 'nightmares' every day and every night. Although the body of the Primarch rarely needs rest, Lorgar often falls into dreams without realizing it - perhaps it is the place where he grew up that relaxes Lorgar's spirit, or perhaps there is something that has a subtle influence on him. Looking at him...
Or maybe it was just the 'message' and 'mission' from the future that Elaine told Lorgar that put an excessive burden on him.
"You mean...what do these recurring dreams portend?"
"...Perhaps, but I hope these 'premonitions' don't come true."
Luojia said a little tiredly.
"The development of some things is simply beyond my imagination - in fact, I prefer to believe that these are just some insignificant nightmares."
"It seems...you have awakened some unique talents inherited from your father."
Elaine looked at Lorja with interest.
[It’s like this——]
Suddenly, Elaine's inner voice sounded leisurely in Lorja's surprised eyes.
[No need to panic, my brother. Our father is the most powerful psyker in the universe... Although Imperial Truth has a very bad attitude towards psionic powers, it cannot be denied that the psychic power of the Lord of Mankind supports the Star Torch. 】
【this…】
Before Luojiado could say anything, a vast world appeared in front of his eyes again - the majestic snow peaks stood like pillars of the world at the end of the horizon, while the vast sea of soul under his feet Ripples continued to ripple along with Luo Jia's mood.
Until the slim figure wearing a light gauze skirt slowly came to Luo Jia.
[My brother, Lord of the Seventeenth Legion, Saint of Colchis, Spreader of Imperial Truth, Primarch...]
[These are your identities, and these are your responsibilities. 】
Her ethereal voice called to Lorgar, like some ancient bard.
[When we beings awaken certain talents, it indicates that heavier sufferings and trials are coming...]
[No matter when and where, the crisis will never leave voluntarily. 】
[There is not much we can do. Only by redoubling our efforts and efforts can we gradually reduce the possibility of crisis. 】
Lorgar's throat slid slightly.
In a daze, Luojia seemed to see more things, such as the scarlet shadow lingering on the beautiful figure in front of him, the cold golden light bursting out from her right arm... and the light blue feathers lingering around him.
Everything in reality and the environment began to become illusory. Lorgar's sight could even directly interpret the endless information and knowledge contained in them through the documents in front of him...
What an amazing feeling.
At this moment, Lorgar seemed to recall what Magnus had said about psychic energy and the warp...
There is also what Elaine explained to herself, the twisted and huge existence that the Lord of Humanity contends with.
Time slowed down slowly at this moment, and Lorgar could see the numbers and words that Elaine was going to write next, and he could see what they looked like a few seconds ago before he even started writing.
He could also see Elaine's gaze directed towards him.
For this sister who could foresee the distant future, Lorgar did not have a good impression of her at first - because she had executed and convicted the chief priest of the Word Bearers without her knowing it... even until just now , Lorgar was thinking about why Elaine was able to discover that Erebus and Kor Phaeron were complete traitors.
Now, Luo Jia somewhat understood.
[Miracles are always around us. 】
[God is always with us. 】
Elaine whispered softly.
In her vision, the brother's increasingly illusory figure indicated that he had fully awakened his unique psychic talent.
In fact, Elaine is fully aware of Lorgar's abnormal situation in the past few days - especially the psychic energy fluctuations emanating from him. For example, the projection of the psyker in the subspace is a bright beam of light. Torch, then the shadow of the Primarch's brother was like a shining star.
[Now, there is more work waiting for you, my brother. 】
[Just cheer up. 】
"…Okay, sister."
Luojia couldn't help but sigh, and his consciousness returned to reality.
He looked at the documents in front of him with a complicated expression regarding the revision of the large-scale industrialization of Colchis and the establishment of multiple outposts for expeditions. Even though the brain of the Primarch could easily complete this level of work, but just now The scene he saw... still lingered in his mind for a long time.
A broken empire, a decayed throne...
And, a hopeless dark future...
These are all in urgent need of change.
