About this listen

As the Horus Heresy rages and the death toll rises, one more will be added to the numberless dead: Sibel Niasta, personal astropath to the First Lord of the Imperium, Malcador the Sigillite. As her end approaches, Malcador sits vigil by her bedside, and the pair discuss their friendship and what it means - how the past and present have shaped Malcador and the Imperium, and what the future holds.

You promised me it wouldn't be like this.

Malcador speaks with one of his closest friends on her deathbed. As the conversation continues it is clear Malcador is opening up to her and instead of comforting her in her last moments he tries to convince himself it will all work out. A view into one of the most important characters in the imperium Malcador shows it all has not gone according to plan, yet he is ready for what awaits him.

Fantastically Human

I love the implications yet the ambiguity in the intent. This short brilliant story is refreshing in setting and fast pace that really fleshes out the Sigillite.

Great voice acting, Jonathan Keeble's narration is second to none as always.

Scalpel Perfection

Short but worth every scarce minute. Definitely prefer this over the other Malcador story and it probably has more to offer even at a third the length.

Required Listening

Although less than 30 minutes, this short story has major ramifications for the entire 40k universe. Combined with great performances, every 40k fan should listen to this tale.
