The elected will get together in the heart of the sanctuary, bringing with them the hopes of their people…
They will fight for the glory, for the honor, at the edge of the abyss…
Will the lowest in the abyss while the strongest will be brought to the naked…
Then they will fall in turn, victims of their pride until it is more than a glorified, glory, lying in the blood of his own nation, deaf to the supplications dying while he will recover this rightful Right, Sacred Eternal Champion in the heart of the Night, Supreme Lord in the land Devastated, King Nocturne acclaimed by the ghosts of his enemies… Until dawn…
That the forges revolve nights and days, that the prophets look through the future, that your armies are amassing around your banner. Prepare yourself mortals!

Le soleil se couchera, teintant le ciel de rubis et de sang…
Les élus se regrouperont au cœur du sanctuaire, amenant avec eux les espoirs de leur peuple…
Ils combattront pour la gloire, pour l’honneur, au bord de l’abîme…
Les plus faibles sombreront dans les abysses pendant que les plus forts seront portés aux nues…
Puis ils tomberont à leur tour, victimes de leur orgueil jusqu’à ce qu’il n’en reste plus qu’un, auréolé de gloire, baignant dans le sang de sa propre nation, sourd aux supplications des mourants tandis qu’il récupérera ce qui lui revient de droit, champion éternel sacré au cœur de la nuit, seigneur suprême en ces terres dévastées, roi nocturne acclamé par les fantômes de ses ennemis… jusqu’à l’aube…
Que les forges tournent nuits et jours, que les prophètes scrutent l’avenir, que vos armées se rassemblent autour de votre bannière. Préparez vous mortels!
Car je suis Khorne! Le Seigneur du sang! L’Archi-commandeur! Le Forge-guerre!
Vous êtes mes invités… entrez dans mon Arène. LES RÈGLES ONT CHANGÉES, PRÉPAREZ VOUS!!
Renseignements directement en magasin!! Vous ne voulez pas louper ça, croyez moi sur parole
So where do we stand? this is the first solid mention of Fantasy we’ve had in weeks. Seems like between Space Marine rumors, and now Fantasy 9th, things will be heating up next month for sure!
