Son of Death (30k Mortarion Quest)

"If I only wished to farm, I would," you growl, casting through your memories for comrades who might be content to serve as a farmhand and keep you company if you asked. Calas would, surely, or perhaps Skorvall. That you think they deserve their own lives rather than existing as shadows of yours means nothing. "The true work cannot be shared. To clean the air, purify the ground, create the food for tomorrow… only I can see the path."
Hah! I love how he calls us out on our bullshit. We thought to test his humility, but it was he who tested ours. And we failed. I must say that I find your take on him quite likeable.

[X] The Dauntless Host. Every man and woman who called themselves Death Guard will have a place by his side, if they wish to claim it.

If they wish to follow, let them.

[X] Write in. With a parade for those departing. Mortarion think himself a man apart, but the same is not true for those who choose to leave with him. They have families and loved ones, and Mortarion will permit them some measure of joy.

Just cause we're an edgelord, doesn't mean we have to make everyone around us be edgelords.

[X]Let the Past Bear Fruit: No ceremonies, no. No grand speeches. But before each warrior leaves, they plant a tree as a memory, and take a seed of the same to bring with them. Lest they forget their past.
 
We can give them Kor Phaeron & Luther treatment still.
That's what I mean by cell-surgery. Because it really is that artisanal and difficult. Making an adult human perform like a Space Marine is not unknown to the geneticists of 30k, but it's especially hard to make that a stable result. Kor Phaeron's reduced physical capability and Palpatine-tier good looks are what happens when you have non-lethal augmentation failures.
 
[X] The Unbroken Few. The seven comrades who stood with him against Necare, last survivors of a brotherhood chosen for their lack of remaining ties as much as their quality.

[X] Write in - A Fond Farewell. Mortartion shall hold his own wake, and that of all who follow him. Better that Barbarus focus on celebrating the lives of it's sons and daughters who leave with him rather than their loss.

[X] A Grim Reprise. Mortarion shall hold his own funeral, and that of all who follow him. Barbarus shall mourn the deaths of those who go to the stars, but they shall also be proud, for it will be a worthy end indeed.

Well... that was interesting

Not sure about the other part, but I really like this. Kinda reminds me of the American Wakes that took place in Ireland during and around the Potato Famine.

Formal breaking of ties between those going and those staying, with a mix of mourning and celebration. Seems fitting for how Morty here views the situation imo

[X] A Thief in the Night. There will be no grand ceremony, no pointless festivities or flowery speeches. Let his deeds be his legacy, nothing more or less.
