Right, so one of my non-Japanese friends at school got a hold of the 5th edition of the Warhammer 40,000 rulebook – not only that, but it’s also one of the 4000 Limited Edition rule books. “OMG!!!!!!” is something along the lines of what I would type if I were 10 years old. I didn’t get a long chance to flip through it, but I did see another section of the current timeline added to the current: the Age of Ending. Apparently, the Emperor is losing the battle against Chaos and unfortunately dying. Perhaps when the Holy Emperor is in a near-death situation, the Illuminati will reveal itself to the Imperium? Perhaps there will be a Fall of Man, an event much worse (I hope not) than the Fall of the Eldar? Another Chaos God… there is enough Chaos filth already. Another possibility: by the death of the Emperor, humanity will finally develop an immunity to Chaos and its so-called power and filth.

If the Emperor does die, humanity fighting itself will be expected. The Adeptus Ministorum will be in ruins, no doubt. The Adeptus Mechanicus will follow its own agenda… chances are, they’ll see Tzeentch (more likely the Prince of a Thousand Faces) as their Machine God, while the rest go for the Void Dragon of the C’tan (From the book Grey Knights by Ben Counter, the Prince of a Thousand Faces is pure knowledge. He was also given a body by Tzeentch).

Another possibility, and I must say that it’s the worst, is that every single Chaos legions attacks Cadia. That will also be bad.
