So they are in fact... preventing the spread of (what would be considered by Empire authorities as) 'Forbidden Knowledge'?For people wondering about Slaanesh and the temptation of knowledge, there's a canon cult called the Bleak Society that started off as a philosophers guild wanting to understand the nature of reality, but their desire for knowledge turned them to Slaanesh worship in order to perfect their studies and academic research. They are fairly low-key, as secret cults go, but whenever a rare or forbidden tome turns up on the black market, they appear to claim it for themselves.

Those poor Horstmann Quest bastards are getting ever more confident that we are a Tzeentchite and ever more frightful about what our plan is, aren't they?"I still have no idea if Egrimm van Horstmann is a chaos worshipper. That dastardly trickster."
"Also, let's go to the Chaos Dwarf trade hub and come back after buying a bunch of suspicious books on magic. No way that could be seen as anything other than totally legit, right?"

Karak Vlag.
Yeah, I kind of mixed things up here
'their dead Jim.'Is there any way to tell whether the Slayers were corrupted or under some sort of persistent illusion/enchantment? The fact that they acted as slayers has be believe the second one. I'm fairly sure the demons would prefer something more interesting than generic suicidal berserker troops if they had the choice.

Seeing the absolutely outstanding success of our last sideroad stop, people are even more motivated to take as many of these short adventures as possible for obvious reasons.
I'm more interested in scouting the chaos dwarves than actually buying something. Demolishing their trading post might be difficult and paint a huge target on our backs but if we get around to doing it in the future it would be a huge gain for humanity.Neither we did come to check on Karag Dum...

"Here, I think I've got an idea. Budge over." A moment later, a much louder voice asks, "what about the Elgi? They turn up for this Great War of yours?"
You smile. "They sent three people and they still act smug about it."

My position: "We killed them, let Gazul sort them out."
…she hadn't even seen combat before signing up for a trip to hell? I know she had something to prove but even still.
He continues to say and do all the right things.
Our pet murderhobos seem annoyed that they didn't actually murder anyone in this battle.
That is an amazing show of faith from a non-K8P Dwarf."If the Wizards tell you to do something, do it, even if it's weird.
Stranger than fiction indeed."Reality is never as convincing as something designed to be convincing,"

Btw, does anyone any idea where the LoC with his "retinue" went? Those guys always have a plan... No. Not "a plan" - The Plan. And, most of time, more than one.
Why did he decide to go east? I doubt that he didn't know where he was and where he could find the nearest people for sacrifices.
Hm. Possible, yes. Not as easy as a human village, but not as hard as a human village, the only road to which is blocked by a small army.The nearest sacrifices are probably the unsuspecting Skaven or Dawi Zhar it's hunting.
What's your source for this? I remember reading something that's pretty much the same as this on the Age of Sigmar wiki and I'm interested in seeing where in 40k it shows up in as well.That is Slaanesh's biggest advantage in the great game dispite being the youngest and weakest of the dark gods.
"Though Khorne is the only god openly hostile to the Dark Prince, Nurgle and Tzeentch are also ill at ease in its presence, despite the fact that the most typical hierarchy of power between the four Chaos Gods sees Slaanesh at the bottom. Even they feel the magnetic pull of Slaanesh's matchless charisma, and are both attracted and repelled by their younger brother.
This is due, in part, to the fact that all the Chaos Gods embody the excess for which Slaanesh is known: Khorne with its bloodlust, Tzeentch with its scheming, and Nurgle with its spreading of plague. Each is an obsession that the Dark Prince can turn to its will with merely a whispered promise.
Lurking deep within the psyche of each of its brothers is the suspicion that the influence of the Dark Prince is rapidly growing, and that Slaanesh will perhaps one day eclipse them all in strength.
With this thought in mind, any alliance of convenience with Slaanesh is especially short-lived; while this could be attributed to simple distrust of one who changes sides at a whim, there is an argument that the Dark Prince's rivals fear the secret power it holds over them."
Now, this is a quote about the 40k version, but it still fits.
Slaanesh's domain is the most widespread, and even intrudes on the other chaos gods turf.
