** When Loken's about to lead Tenth Company into combat for the first time since elevation to the Mournival, Abaddon very seriously tells him, "Get this right." Loken's response is an utterly deadpan;
-->"I'm glad you told me that, Ezekyle. I was considering making a mess of it."

** While telling his life story, Uriah recounts his first encounter with the Emperor's Thunder Warriors. A very, ''very'' drunk encounter where he decides it's a good idea to [[TooDumbToLive hurl insults at them.]] He gets thrown off a cliff and into the water.

* " After Garviel Loken assaults Iacton Qruze for not telling him Mersadie Oliton was alive, Ares Voitek of the Iron Hands whips up a traditional Medusan drink used to heal rifts within a clan, and passes it around among Rogal Dorn and the Knights-Errant. The resultant brew is so strong that [[TheStoic Dorn]] cocks an eyebrow, while the rest of the Knights act like Voitek just tried to poison them. The only ones who enjoyed the brew are Bror Tyrfinger (Space Wolf) and Altan Nohai (White Scar).

He laments Lorgar's [[ManChild tendencies]] and darkly comments what he'd do with him (put a boot up his ass). Thiel offers to demonstrate how which seems to earn a rebuke from Guilliman. When Thiel attempts to apologise for his attempt at humour, Guilliman admits the joke was [[ActuallyPrettyFunny actually pretty funny]].

--->'Ventanus, Captain, Fourth Company, First Chapter, Thirteenth,' Ventanus replies. 'I am looking for-'
--->He has memorised the names.
--->'-Seneschals Arbute, Darial and Eterwin. Or, in fact, any senior municipal servant whose portfolio encompasses the starport.'
--->'They are all in the building,' the footman replies. He is clearly being fed behind the eyes by some direct-to-retina datasystem. Ventanus can tell from the slightly glassy way his eyes de-focus to verify the names.
--->'Could you fetch them?' asks Ventanus.
--->'They are in session all afternoon,' replies the footman. 'Is it urgent?'
--->Ventanus chooses his next word carefully. It’s not so much the word as the hesitation he places in front of it, the hesitation that says ''I am wearing battleplate, I am armed, and I am doing my very best to be polite.''
--->'Yes,' he says.
--->The footmen hurry away.
