Were it not for the Lion, the Universe wouldn’t be where it was today. Were it not for the Lion, there would be no Heresy. There are many words to describe Lion El’Jonson, Primarch of the Dark Angels Legion, but most of them fall into those categories. If anybody is willing to contribute artwork towards this project then let me know. Unfortunately, I can’t offer payment, but the finished document will become more impressive with artwork attached, as I’m sure most of you haven’t come here to just read one big block of text. The artwork used in this is not my own, and you’re probably aware of this from the use of the Fallen Angels cover art above, which I used as I couldn’t find any traitor Dark Angels. I’m not going to tell you which Legion the Chaos Gods will claim, because remember – we will have one Tzeentch Legion, one Khorne Legion, one Nurgle Legion and one Slaneesh Legion, but if you want to find out that you’ll have to keep reading. If you ever wanted to know what loyalist Thousand Sons, Night Lords, Word Bearers, Sons of Horus, World Eaters and Emperor’s Children would look like, then this is what you’ll find out in this piece. The same can be said for those of you who wanted to know what traitor Dark Angels, White Scars, Blood Angels, Iron Hands, Salamanders and Raven Guard Legions would have looked like. That’s pretty much the line-up that we’ll be seeing in The Lion El’Jonson Heresy. In this article, I write a bit of alternate history for the Warhammer 40k timeline, where I ask the question – what would happen if it had been the Lion El’Jonson, Primarch of the Dark Angels Legion that had lead the betrayal of the Emperor instead of Horus Lupercal, Warmaster? This piece of alternate history presumes prior knowledge of Warhammer 40k lore and the Horus Heresy novel series, and was inspired by Bolter and Chainsword’s awesome Dornian Heresy.
