Godblight - Guilliman speaks to the Emperor || Voice Over

Back to a bit of Guilliman, but, a piece that was requested, and one with a large focus on the Emperor himself! It was a difficult thing to attempt to capture something that should work for his voice but I did the best I could!

A scene I've been requested to attempt and one I've wanted to do for a while.
Portraying the Emperor is quite a hurdle but I think I did the best I currently could with the tools I have!
And overall a very interesting scene for the universe as a whole, whilst being emotionally crushing for Guilliman.

If you enjoyed please like, comment and subscribe! It means a lot to me.

And, my thanks for watching!

[RichardStrong]

The implication later on is that he doesn't have a full and accurate recall of this conversation. Like a million things were imparted to him and he remembers only a part of it.

[CanadianCadian]

The amount of effort it took for Emps to pull himself together to speak those few coherent words is truly unfathomable.

[morrettigames]

Ngl, my dad is passing from cancer… I spent today with him (like I will for as many days he has left)… this evokes a similar feeling to speaking with him today… lucid… here but not here… the weight and burden he doesn’t want for me but understands it will come… guiding the family and protecting them… the wind of eternity never reaching and never ceasing speaks to us

[MrJara]

I hurt for Guilliman, he is so lonely. I can’t wait for the reunion with the Lion.

[DeetexSeraphine]

Yeah, no wonder Roboute is suffering from Ultradepression... no pressure bro.

[gagerecker]

That final “Guilliman” at the end is so tragic. It feels like he has so much more to say. The emperor wants to give orders to lead the empire with his son but he just can’t. He has to trust in his Greatest son to finally bring back hope and do what he himself could not. Again 10/10 work you truly are a talent.

[Kafiunchahi]

04:50 "'Father, not a Father, thing, thing, thing' the minds said."

That part really stood out to me. This sounded like the Emperor decrying the utter maddening horror he's become. All glory, splendour, and humanity lost, his self-loathing really comes through. Great job again.

[manhunter]

Give The Emperor a bit of a break, for over 10, 000 years he's fought chaos, power the astronomican, and part knowledge on key individuals. All this while his body decays and his mind shattered to the point that there's no way to tell which one is truely him.

[stephenbyrne]

*_"Guilliman, hear me. My last loyal Son. My pride. My greatest triumph."_*

I always anticipate Guilliman to respond: *_"I'm here Father...."_*

[mrwolf]

I can’t imagine what it must be like for the both of them. For Guilliman to have such a crushing emotional moment like that and for the emperor to be suffering in perpetual pain stuck on the throne for 10, 000 years because of the betrayal of his own creation, his own son, and for him to put in so much effort just to barely be able to speak coherently with the only son that hasn’t either betrayed him, gone MIA, or are KIA.

[someguy]

This proves there was an emotional connection. The Emperor pulled himself together for nearly the final time, not to impart a command, but to speak his son's name.

[TheCorrodedMan]

In the grim darkness of the Far Future…
_There is yet Hope_

[inwit]

Mortarion was right about one thing.
His father is dead. The Emperor is not the same person he was during the crusade.
There may be love there still... but millennia of suffering on an unimaginable scale would erode everything from you. Strip you to your barest nature and take even that away. The Emperor fights because that's all he can do. He can't even die.

[KaiserAfini]

That final "Guilliman" feels like the Emperor on his deathbed, reaching out his hand to console his son, letting him know one last time that he believes in him. One word with infinite weight, you captured the moment perfectly.

[EtherealEmperor]

"father, not a father, Thing, Thing, Thing"

to me, its almost like the emperor is saying
"I remember you my son, but I am gone, all that's left is this thing I have become"

it almost seems to carry some kind of revulsion, like the emperor in these brief moments of consciousness is disgusted with himself

[spencerherron]

I think “Yesterday’s savior” may be the most heartbreaking but apt description of how G-man feels about the person the emperor used to be upon seeing what little was left of him.

[visigth]

The fate of the Emperor is such a horrific tragedy to try to comprehend. Under all his godlike power he's still just a man. He has human emotions and human depth and human contradictions. He can't decide whether Guilliman is his final living son, his last connection to his own humanity, or just the last tool in his belt to try to reclaim what was lost. A champion for his vision or a broken failure like all his traitor primarchs. The broken mind of a man physically trapped in a rotting body by his own power. A mortal being with an immortal soul forced to carry the responsibility of a god.

I almost break down trying to wrap my head around it.

[ilikemusic]

The effort of The Emperor rending his fragmented soul and psyche back together just to communicate this small amount is completely unfathomable. Hundreds of psychers being turned to ash while the golden throne does whatever the hell it does all while this godlike being is in a state between life and death pulling together his consciousness. For 10, 000 years he has been interred upon the golden throne. I can’t imagine what that what do to someone’s mind.

[justsomedude]

I still like to believe that the emperor cares about his sons, he's just so mixed and not right in the head right now that you wont know what he really feels
