A list of heartwarming events in this fanfiction, proving that even in a dark and dangerous universe like this, there is still hope.

Roboute Guilliman

  • Roboute extending a hand to the Exodite Dragonlord, Asarnil, promising him that he shall do everything in his power to prevent terrible fate befalling on everyone and the Exodites if possible. Given that Asarni saw what was the future's state looked, this is quite a warm gesture.
  • Roboute consoling Kassandra when attempting to convince her to join him. Doubly so as it was Roboute's idea as to earn her trust much easier.
  • Roboute telling Petra to treat Kassandra, who had been recently found, with kindness given what Kassandra had endured as a child.
  • Roboute upon finding out what Kor Phaeron had subjected Aurelia to, did not hesitate to command Asarnil's forces to wipe out the populace of Colchis.Cross with Awesome and Nightmare Fuel.
  • This is even more pronounced considering he wanted to leave them after securing his sister but changed his mind.
  • Roboute coming to Morrigan and giving her as many aid as he could, stating he does so not just to exterminate Chaos but because it is his obligation as her older brother.
  • Roboute using his Gene-Seed to transform the dying Thunder Warriors send to aid him into semi-Space Marines, saving their lives in the process.
  • He promises himself that this time, there will be no Lost or Purged Primarchs.

Asarnil (Dragonlord)

  • Asarnil's growing friendship with Roboute is a sight on its own.
  • Asarnil advising Roboute to not feel remorse for wiping out the people of Colchis, citing that wiping out evil such as Chaos cultist is the only way to truly purge their influence and transform their lifestyle properly to defy the Ruinous Power.

Petra

  • Petra putting on a pair of feathers over her ears attempting to match the pretty ones ( Aeldari) is a small case.
  • Petra growing to care for her older brother and sisters, defending and glaring at anyone who dared to make Kassandr feel uncomfortable. This is quite noticeable as her original counterpart, Perturabo, never could express care nor develop the capacity to do so given his strange power.
  • Petra getting to enjoy being taught multiple subjects by her teachers too advanced and complex for her to instantly understand and master, as the original Perturabo was capable of instantly mastering whatever tasks he was put up to, and felt robbed of the sense of wonder he might have felt at looking on impressive works of art or learning how to do things the long way.

Kassandra

  • Hugging Roboute as tightly as possible while chomping down on a piece of bread.
  • Kassandra warning Roboute to let Morrigan have her chance at revenge.
  • Kassandra getting taught her how to control her visions, so she doesn't constantly need to see the future deaths and other horrible futures.
  • Kassandra allowed herself to be hugged, and hummed the lullaby that Miriel sang to help her sisters after their ordeals.

Aurelia

  • Aurelia growing to love her brother like her sisters. It's quite nice to see her growing close to her sisters as she was willing to help them bake food for their older brother.
  • Aurelia consoling Morrigan after the horrible loss of the people of Barbarus, the terrible injuries their brother has endured due to her actions and even the fact that her two older sister hates her for what she had done.

Morrigan

  • The surviving people of Barbarus thanking Morrigan for fighting for them with nothing but a beat-up scythe and some ragged clothes when she was still small, before anyone else helped them. They honour her by depicting her on their new coat of arms as a smiling woman with white hair and a crown of flowers, holding a scythe in a field of pale corn.
  • Morrigan returning her brother's gesture in a hesitant manner during a tourney where her brother proves his worth. It's small but it is nice seeing she is becoming more open with affection. A stark contrast to her canon male counterpart.

Emperor of Mankind

  • Given his past as Conan of Cimmeria, it has been suggested that his love bordering on obsession for all things golden and shiny and making everything gold in his Imperium may well stem from his relationship with BĂȘlit, the Pirate Queen of the Black Coast, who dressed solely in golden jewelry and is often considered Conan's true love.
  • The Emperor deciding to send the dying Thunder Warriors to Guilliman as an act of trust and hoping he could cure them, putting them to good use like the genetically altered super warrior desired.
  • The Emperor naming his personal warship Bucephalus, after the old horse he cherished dearly. Even with his old age, the fact he remembers fondly of an animal is pretty sweet considering what the real Alexander did for the late horse.
  • Upon discovering Hathor and Danu Dorn, he decides to give the proper reward to the foster and their respective people. To the gang leader who raised Hathor, he gave them six thousand lasgun for raising her for 6 years and for the Dorn Clan, lots of gloves.
  • When Conan!Emperor and Roboute finally meet, the first thing Emps does is ask for his sword, filled with his future self's psychic imprint and therefore his memories. The second thing he does is immediately and powerfully embrace the Avenging Son.

Hathor

  • Hathor demanding Emperor to reward them properly lest she would not go with him. Not to mention how she was willing to fight for her gang, showcasing just how much she cherishes them.

Danu Dorn

  • Danu not wanting to leave Clan Dorn because she think of it as her own home.

Fulgrim

  • Fulgrim's foster parents join her on the Emperor's ship as her aides; in canon, they apparently died of natural causes before the Emperor's arrival.

Madonna

  • Madonna's Chuunibyou behaviour is actually a big act she puts up to prevent the people of Prospero from worrying about the spiritual parasites that hunts the psykers there.
