      Angron didn't hate his own legion. He hated everything. He hated himself. He hated the Emperor. He hated that he still lived.

      But I do agree that saying that Conrad kurze was the only primarch to hate his legion is just false

Away with father that which we abhore, as they abhored us! Loathed be ye, fathers, that loathed us! Into the honest battle fray we rush, blood dripping from our Chainaxes, the blood tithe yet to be reaped!

    Decimus would aproach the burnt husk of the war sage. The son of octavia was not the same man who stood,bearing the ungodly crown of the night haunter. Konrad Curze was dead before he even came to nostramo. But decimus was smarter. And stronger willed. Channeling his now inhuman will,the warsage was reborn. Malcharion stood back,unnerved.
    "...Decimus?" Malcharion said,confused
    "The very same. But that was a while ago. A long while."
    "...then you know exactly why i do not intend to join my "brothers"."
    "Im not uniting a legion of criminals. I pursue a different cause. The inperium is hypocrisy incarnate. I know you feel the same,and i offer the same thing i offered every night lord willing to listen. Vengeance. For Talos. For Zhal. For my family."
    Malcharion was silent.
    "...how much have you progressed."
    "I already have several atramentar at my banner. I hope to bring them back. With or without the prince on crows."
    "...if this is true. You have been busy."
    "More then you know. So. What will it be,War Sage?"
    Malcharion would nod.
    "My sword belongs to the master of the atramentar,to the true Sons of the Dark. If you seek this path,then my steel is yours. But i will have my 2nd rest be permanent."
    "I wouldnt have done this if i didnt have a reason. Come. Its time i introduce you to my court."
    The Great Prophet and the War Sage would emerge back into the ship,purpose renewed.

    As far as the heretical traitor legions go, I’ve been of the mind that purging flame is almost to good, but I can admit that the Night Lords unique journey does have some grudging acknowledgment of neutral feelings from me (never openly - IXth 🩸from beginning to end) mainly due to the black humour, nihilism and dry sarcasm present in the few charismatic personalities they’ve spawned. The problem is they’re actually ignorant and precious school girls with their modus operandi though- the galaxy hates us boo hoo……. It’s a bigger club than they think when there’s the Iron Warriors in that galaxy 😂 not to mention outcasts like the White Scars that get some heat too. That said, at best they just should be immolated last.

    That quote at the beginning sums up the night lords really well! I don't understand why some people like them. They're easily the most pathetic of all the legions. Conrad is sort of an interesting character. If you're into the fact that he's a fatalistic, broken, spiteful, being who's more of a creature than a man and ended up being the only primarch to take the cowards way out. Otherwise I don't really get the appeal.

      Same, I fail to see the appeal at all, I guess aesthetics and in general not being just another Chaos pawn goes a long way, I think the only thing I enjoy with them involved is when they find themselves in the same situation they make countless billions suffer like when one of their warbands was hunted by a White Scars company or when they were ambushed by the Carcharadons while they were raiding a prison.
