Hello guys I'm a professional graphic designer and digital artist and I'm looking for a commission if anyone is interested so please dm me also I'm doing commission now at a very reasonable price so feel free to chat with me I recently designed a cool comic if anyone is interested so lmk I'll show you in my dm
Lion El’Jonson
Lion is not one for theatrical remorse, but once he understands what happened, the weight of it would hit him hard and stay there. He would immediately think of the children, then of the brother whose spouse he killed, then of the fact that the whole shape of the situation was preventable. He would likely remove himself from the children’s sight at once, because he would know his presence would only deepen the damage.
Fulgrim
He would be devastated by the ugliness of it, because it is exactly the kind of thing he cannot decorate away. Fulgrim might have gone into the situation with certainty, even elegance, and then been forced to face the fact that he left children with the image of their uncle as a monster. That would wound him far more than he would admit.
Perturabo
He would react with a cold, brutal kind of self-loathing. Perturabo is not gentle with his own failures, and this would become one of the ones that sits in him like iron in the gut. Once he understood that the spouse was fighting for their children, and that the children are now traumatized, he would likely feel contempt for the situation itself. He would become fiercely practical at once, securing the children, limiting further exposure, and trying to solve what can still be solved.
Jaghatai Khan
He would be horrified, and the horror would make him very quiet. Jaghatai understands family bonds deeply enough to know exactly how catastrophic this is. He would not linger over self-pity. He would move immediately to get the children away from the scene, away from any further violence, and away from the uncle who now represents terror to them.
Leman Russ
This would hit him like a sledgehammer to the chest. Russ can survive a lot, but the moment he realizes he killed his brother’s spouse while the children were watching or while they are now suffering from it, the rage would curdle into something much worse. Guilt would not make him gentle, but it would make him changed in a very different way, because now he has to live with what he has done. He would want to do something immediate, something blunt, something that feels like atonement, but he would know that no amount of blood will make the children unsee what they saw.
Rogal Dorn
He would be devastated in silence. Dorn would probably freeze for a moment, because his mind would immediately reconstruct the entire event and all the places it should have gone differently. The fact that the spouse was fighting for the children would cut him deeply, because Dorn understands duty and sacrifice in a way that makes that motive unbearable. He would take charge at once, not to erase the guilt, but to protect what remains. The children would be secured, sheltered, and kept away from any further harm. But Dorn would not forget the cost.
Konrad Curze
He would be the most awful mirror of the entire tragedy. Part of him would be unsurprised, because of course violence begets trauma, and of course the children would be left scarred by seeing their uncle as the killer. But that does not make him less affected, only more twisted by it. He would probably understand the fear in the children all too well, and that would make the whole thing even darker. He might even tell himself this was always where it was going to end, which is his way of avoiding the fact that he has just helped create another generation of fear.
Sanguinius
He would be shattered by it. Sanguinius would feel the tragedy in the deepest possible way, because he is the Primarch least able to treat children’s pain as collateral. The realization that the spouse fought for the children, and that the children are now traumatized by their uncle, would horrify him. He would want to comfort them immediately, to take them away from the blood and the wreckage, and to make them feel safe again. But even if he succeeds in comforting them, he would still carry the knowledge that this family now has this wound in it forever.
Ferrus Manus
He would be probably furious with himself. Ferrus is the sort to treat failure as a thing to be corrected, but this is beyond simple correction. He would understand very quickly that the spouse was protecting the children, and that changes the meaning of everything. He would move to secure the children, to stop the spread of panic, and to keep the situation from getting worse. But his regret would be heavy, because he would know he was not strong enough to prevent this.
Angron
He would be a disaster. If Angron learns that he killed his brother’s spouse and then finds out the spouse was fighting to protect the children, the guilt would land like a chain around the throat. He would likely not know what to do with himself afterward. The children being traumatized by their uncle would make it worse, because now the violence has reached into innocence, and Angron hates that even when he cannot fully articulate it.
Roboute Guilliman
He would be horrified, but he would also immediately try to manage the damage. Guilliman would attempt to understand the scale of the psychological harm right away. The spouse died protecting the children, the children witnessed enough to be traumatized, and the uncle is now the face of that trauma. He would move to create stability immediately, because that is the only thing that can still be offered.
Mortarion
Mortarion knows what it is to be trapped in a bad shape of reality, and this would feel like another one. He would hate the fact that the spouse fought so hard for the children and that the children are now left with fear where safety should have been. And yet Mortarion would carry this one like a bruise that never leaves.
Magnus the Red
He would be devastated in the way only someone who can understand all sides at once can be. Magnus would see the fear in the spouse, the desperation behind the fight, the children’s trauma, and the terrible finality of what he did. He would likely try to soothe the children with words, with reassurance, with magic - if allowed, because he would know that fear becomes memory very quickly in moments like this.
Horus Lupercal
He would be hit hard by the realization because, for Horus, this is exactly the kind of failure that ruins the story he wants to tell about family and loyalty. That is the kind of thing that would leave a crack in his confidence, even if he hides it well. He would try to regain control by taking over the aftermath, making decisions fast, and presenting stability.
Lorgar Aurelian
He would be horrified on a spiritual level. Lorgar would see the spouse’s sacrifice as almost sacramental, and the children’s trauma as a desecration that now stains everyone involved. He will become intensely focused on helping the children recover, perhaps with guidance or ritualized comfort, because he needs to believe something sacred can still be rebuilt.
Vulkan
He would be crushed by it. Vulkan loves children with a deep, protective instinct, so realizing the spouse died shielding them would break him right open. He would immediately move to comfort them, shield them, and make sure they are never left alone with the memory of what happened. Vulkan would carry the guilt heavily, but he would try to turn that guilt into care.
Corvus Corax
He would go very still and very dark. Corvus would understand instantly what it means for children to see violence and then attach that fear to a family member. He would probably blame himself more than he says out loud, because he would see the failure of restraint in himself. His response would be to extract the children from the situation and give them space, silence, and safety. He would not try to force them to forgive. He would know that trust has to be earned back, if it can be.
Alpharius and Omegon
Their reaction would be layered, but the core of it would be recognition that this is a strategic and emotional catastrophe. They killed the spouse, the spouse was protecting the children, and now the children are traumatized by their uncle. They would understand that the children need distance, safety, and very careful handling. They would regret the failure deeply, even if they never say it plainly.
