“Insult me again brother and I will theoretically punch you in your practical face” I just envision the emperor spitting his tea out laughing while psychically eaves dropping.
I have never understood why anyone thought that was a good one-liner. If I recall the situation correctly, the Lion had just tried to blame Guilliman for letting Curze into Sanguinius's throne room. Guilliman responded by basically telling the Lion that he was the "Warmaster", and that the job of protecting Sanguinius was his, which it absolutely was. So in response the Lion threatened to hit him. That's not only ridiculous but incredibly childish, especially for someone who is supposed to have a superhuman intellect. On top of that, the insult doesn't make sense. You can't theoretically punch someone, and the phrase "practical face" doesn't mean anything. The whole thing seems like the author clumsily tried to make the Lion seem badass by turning a phrase Guilliman liked to use. I for one think it made the Lion look like a douche. edit spelling
@@DeusExMachina10001 I see it as Johnson making fun of Guilliman's phrases. I think the point was that the use didn't make sense. That adds to the humor too.
@@ske2010 That would still be stupid though because Guilliman's phrase makes sense, and the Lion's absolutely doesn't. It comes off far more like someone trying to be clever and failing. Also the Lion was still 100% in the wrong in the argument, which would disarm the one-liner even if it made sense. Sorry but the Lion still comes off as looking like a douche here, which if that had been the author's intent, I would agree was well done. But I'm 99.9% sure that wasn't the case.
"I am Dante, commander of the Blood Angels," the golden-armoured warrior says. "I greet you, Lion El'Jonson, lord of the Dark Angels and son of the Emperor." The Blood Angels drop to one knee, just as smoothly as their Thunderhawks landed. The Lion frowns, abruptly feeling as though he has been wrong-footed. "You are satisfied with my identity?" "If you will forgive me, lord, you are....older than I expected," Dante says, still on one knee. "But to have so readily and unprompted recognised the face of our genefather says much. Besides, I have served the Emperor for over a thousand years, and I have yet to meet a being with the same bearing as a primarch, save for another primarch." The Lion blinks. Over a thousand years? Dante was ancient indeed! And- "Wait," he says, his mouth dry. "Another primarch? Get up, all of you," he adds, "just tell me - one of my brothers yet lives?" "My apologies, my lord Lion," Dante says, rising back to his feet along with his Warriors. "I assumed word had arrived ahead of us. Lord Guilliman of Ultramar was revived and healed from the stasis in which he had been locked for millennia, and has launched the Indomitus Crusade to take back the Imperium from its enemies. He fought his way through the Great Rift and came to the rescue of my Chapter and our blood-brothers, and brought reinforcements with him in the form of Primaris Marines, a new breed of warrior developed over ten thousand years." The Lions thoughts are whirling. The Imperium still exists. He is not being denounced as an imposter, and plunged into an ugly civil war against his brothers sons. There are other bastions of humanity out there in the galaxy, with which he can link up and fight back the darkness. However, one thought rises to the surface above all others. Roboute. I am not alone.
Guilliman stared straight-faced into his brother's eyes, careful as to not show any indication of the emotional tumult that was running through his very being. The Lion, with a face just as unreadable yet understandably contemplating thoughts of either violence or rage against the fellow Primarch, was now stunned speechless. This was definitely not a situation where either brother thought they would ever find themselves needing to contemplate, let alone address with one of their kin. "You did what?" the Lion asks. "With a what?" Guilliman stayed quiet for what felt like a millennia. He knew that this would not be an easy discussion, and pondered every word he could use to best explain the situation he had found himself in, before slowly rising to his feet and staring out of the window overlooking his glorious empire of Macragge. For all he knew, it could very well be the final moment he was able to do so. "I was..." Guilliman paused again; he could not remember the last time he ever found himself at a loss for words. His statesman's guile that had been used to win over the hearts and minds of untold billions now regressed to the nervous ramblings of a child backed into the corner of a room. He reaffirmed himself before breathing in a long sigh and continuing. "So lonely, brother."

My buddy Steve was a huge fan of the Dark Angels. We both were around going back to rouge trader days. I wish he were still alive to see the Lions return, he would've loved very much to paint the model and have watched the great lore in this video, ty.
I feel you. I have been a fan of the chapter since I was 10, and now I am 19, half of my life. It means a lot to me. RIP to Steve. Did he have some kind of favorite name inspired by Dark Angels? If so, I would make a model with such a name in the army. If you don't respond I will just make a guy named Steve.

@@Tamerleine thank you, it’s from my non existent erotic fanfic I just made up during watching this stream. I call it: Yvraine Sits Upon the Golden Bone
Guilliman's eyes reflected what his words failed to express, a hunger that only a starved prisoner could understand, his hand covered his mouth and moved downwards, his eyes lost on the horizon of his planet. "If only you knew how Eldar hips can move, Brother..."
The fact that Lion feared Guilliman’s Fury, speaks volumes… considering Guilliman is the 40K version of Germanicus, Augustus, and Julius mixed into one
@@TheAmberKing No seriously thank you man, your passion and incredible storytelling has single handedly made me a 40k fanatic and gotten me through some dark days these past 2 years.
I love the returned Lion, absolutely love him. Just so relatable. Please feel free to continue videos about this new and more relatable Lion as his lore progresses. 40k helps with depression.
"Of all the Primarchs, save perhaps Mortarion, Lion El'Jonson stands apart. Partially this is due to his taciturn nature - a brooding silence hangs over him at all times. Yet there is something more... something buried beneath his noble exterior. Perhaps this is a result of his upbringing, growing to maturity alone in the monster-ridden forests of Caliban. Even at a council of war, the Lion moves like an apex predator. He is always watching, always planning, always hunting. He unnerves even his brothers." -Malcador the Sigillite
As everyone else, Im going to check the duration of the first episode, hear it again and synchronize the ending with the release time of part 2 😂😂😂 Love your content, thanks for your hard work.
As someone who discovered WH40K by borrowing the original angels of death codex back in middle school and fell in LOVE with the dark angels......these two videos, especially the ending to this one, are possibly one of the single best tellings of a Primarchs story I have ever witnessed. The reunification of Lion and BOTH the fallen and the unforgiven has me in tears....Because of this video I will definitely be breaking my old vows and probably buying the first official games workshop box set I have purchased in probably like 13 or so years (the Lion figure, of course). A vow I made because they priced me out of collecting years ago. These videos will make me break it. Thank you....
Thank you for the final few minutes of decompression with just background music. They help the story linger some more and the sentences and images to echo in our brains. What a story! Some of the voice acting this time truly touched some chords. Especially that moment where the lion was alone in the cell looking at the empty manacles. Wow.
The Lion's journey from the wilds of Caliban to reuniting with his legion after 10,000 years is such an awesome story and great character development for Johnson. You and everyone else involved in the voice acting did a spectacular job with this. I'm definitely gonna be rewatching both videos this weekend.
I love Curze, I don’t know why the Night Lords don’t get more novel love. Talos and company made them human. I don’t know if it was just my experience in the military but coming to terms with your own nature was a really hard thing for me to do.
30:51 what a burn ! 🤣 For those who didn't get it, Ultramarine tactics revolves around "theoreticals" and "practicals" tactics. Lion was making a pun !
You are something else. The Oratory skills you possess are second to none. I don’t remember what the technical term for the way you overlap your previous statements after time or voice change but I love it. I love reading stories like that but listening to them is so beautiful. Psychologists say we are learn different but there is a common thread. You read it, you hear it, and you do it. In this case, we get to hear it twice. That second overlap is always more important than the first. If anyone is reading this, it is done on purpose. Like a math equation, the solving inside parenthesis come first before you can move on, but you can move things around before you solve. The second hit is the parenthesis being solved paving way for the solution. I’m not gifted in the arts. I wish I was but I don’t know if I would enjoy them as much if they came so easy to me. I was blessed with physical talent and honed my skills in the military. You guys are the real hero’s. You make me feel my emotions again. That is priceless…
Let’s Gooooooo! I meant to say this in part 1, but love your videos. I like a lot of primarchs for different reasons, I try to think of which one I like the most. Then it hit me, I only get this excited for The Lion. So yeah, thank you for helping me realize that
The thing I like most about these Lore vids is that this isnt a historic chronicle of events. Its a bard telling the story. No other Warhammer lore vids or channels ever get me legit teary eyed. The weight of these tales is palpable, especially when paired with the music and visuals. That effect is why i showed the Saul and Lucius vid to my gf as her first introduction to 40k. She has now borrowed my copy of Horus rising. Keep up the great work dude.

This was so awesome! Listened to on a long drive. The narration was so good. Great job! I really enjoyed learning more about the Lion during the great crusade and always wondered what he was doing while Sanguinus was at Terra.
The Dark Angels were already my favorite Legion and The Lion was already my favorite Primarch but holy cow this just makes me like them sooooooo much more now. I am completely in and cannot wait for more.
That was great. I was a fan of the Dark Angels since I was 10, and now I am 19. Nine years ago, I had so little idea of who my favorite primarch, Lion El Jonson, was, but it has changed so much…
The Lion and Sanguinius interactions are so well written and he has grown so much in character. Glad to have the Lion back in the setting as the Imperium needs him. Thanks Amber King for the phenomenal Lion videos. Also i wish they would do something with Madail he was the Only Greater Deamon to match not 1 but 3 Primarch's and not lose but a stalemate.
Imperium Secundas was a good idea in concept. With Guilliman running the government and logistics, the Lion over military and security, and Sanguineous being the figurehead and the outside opinion between the two other Primarchs. And Curze almost ended all three with focused madness and insane determination.
Lion: "Uhhh.....here's the thing....Konrad kinda.....got out of his cage...." Guilleman: "You had one job, bro!" *Curze runs by giggling like a toddler*
Thank you thank you @The Amber King! Battle brother, this was amazing! I love the Lion's character so much and I appreciate how in this two parter-voyage you have encapsulated everything regarding the Lion. For too long I think people have been led to have a certain negative interpretation of Jonson hence, I love how you and the amazing crew (shout out to all of them) have shown the good, the bad, and the ugly of the Lion and how you framed how 40k Lion is very different from 30k Lion. Jonson for me is a loyal son, but he has made mistakes and I love how GW are taking his story beats now with his Risen. It will be interesting to see the dynamics of the Unforgiven with the Risen and Jonson from here on out. I also feel Jonson being the protector he is now, may finish what he started at Thramas and wipe out all remaining Night Lords. @Sean Michael Moreno, thank you fro brining to life the voice of my favorite primarch!

Worth the wait. I have the Arcs of Omen, and other source materials, but this was infused with so much emotion. It was at times, haunting.
I’ve been waiting for this so much. The king is back .
My favorite book! Also congratulations to you and our brother remembrancer!
What’s the music that plays when Guilliman and the Lion discuss Imperium Secundus at the start?
Warhammer 40,000 Mechanicus OST - Children of the Omnissiah?
bro this is incredible
Broadcasting 5 am on Friday morning for me. Luckily that about the time i get up. :)
Yo I've been waiting on this since Part 1. Can't believe I'm 3 days late to the GOAT Amber King
This was amazing. Thank you for making this.
very nice story i like returning and listen to it
2 hours of The Amber King on a Friday night with the added Balder's Gate 3, this is a good day 👍
Excellent work! Send my regards to your eldritch masters.
Loyal is it own reward.
Old man Lion has got to be the biggest character development in current lore. Young Lion would've slaughtered the fallen with no hesitation.
I'm so excited to see this live for the first time.
Guilliman in 30k: I do not want to be Emperor!
Guilliman in 40k: *is basically the defacto Emperor*
Imperium Secundas was a good idea in concept. With Guilliman running the government and logistics, the Lion over military and security, and Sanguineous being the figurehead and the outside opinion between the two other Primarchs. And Curze almost ended all three with focused madness and insane determination.
FOR ULTRAMAR
FOR THE FIRST
FOR
THE
EMPEROR!!!!!!
More excellent work pal. Your writing is emotional and the soundtracks fit the mood perfectly. Ide love to provide voices for you. Haha
This was incredible
Lion: "Uhhh.....here's the thing....Konrad kinda.....got out of his cage...."
Guilleman: "You had one job, bro!" *Curze runs by giggling like a toddler*
Thank you. Thank for this. Thank you for bring so such and passion to the 40k verse.
I hate that i have to wait 😅
Finally just finished these. They were great. Looking forward to when you finally reach Leeman Russ and Horus!
The Amber King is unstoppable, another banger
Amazing! We need more Lion content.
Yess! Been waiting for the next part of my favorite primarch's story! Will check it out soon!!
Thank you thank you @The Amber King! Battle brother, this was amazing!
I love the Lion's character so much and I appreciate how in this two parter-voyage you have encapsulated everything regarding the Lion. For too long I think people have been led to have a certain negative interpretation of Jonson hence, I love how you and the amazing crew (shout out to all of them) have shown the good, the bad, and the ugly of the Lion and how you framed how 40k Lion is very different from 30k Lion.
Jonson for me is a loyal son, but he has made mistakes and I love how GW are taking his story beats now with his Risen. It will be interesting to see the dynamics of the Unforgiven with the Risen and Jonson from here on out. I also feel Jonson being the protector he is now, may finish what he started at Thramas and wipe out all remaining Night Lords.
@Sean Michael Moreno, thank you fro brining to life the voice of my favorite primarch!
your readings are class mate, smoulder and linger !
Motivational this went hard
For the Lion!
I missed your reflections in this one. That was something I really liked in the last
Love this stuff! You do great work! Awesome narration and music!
Bravo, amazing I had been waiting to get to see the lion since I found you as a creator. Thank you
Heavily underrated channel
Be careful of your vanity brother! I see it!
This was awesome!
51:30 What the hell? That's what you look like? A REDHEAD!
