| |
Perfection and Pain is a Emperor's Children short story by Jude Reid. It was initially released as a eShort during Heretic Astartes 2025 eShort Week in April 2025.[2]
Story Description[1]
When Tamaris of the Blades, Legionary of the Emperor’s Children, has his treasury raided by Drukhari, he makes it a point of pride to reclaim his relics single-handedly. But as he boards their ship, it is revealed to be a trap, and he soon finds himself a spectacle to the cruel xenos in their fighting pits. However, there are bargains to be made with his scheming captors, and a slim chance of greater glory...
Notes
Mentioned in the story the Kabal of The Seven Sorrows was named with a mistake - as a 'Cabal..., which does not correspond to the terminology used by GW about the drukhari.[1]
