"RUST" || AN IRON WARRIORS MONOLOGUE || UNOFFICIAL WAHAMMER 40K AUDIO NARRATED BY A VOX IN THE VOID 

Perturabo and his Iron Warriors were used, not for glorious, cinematic battles, but brutal, grinding, wars of attrition. Conflicts where even Astartes fell in droves for mere meters of earth. It didn't matter that they were superhuman, they bled and toiled like any mortal soldier. If any one Legion truly understands the horrors of war, it's the Iron Warriors. I truly believe that Perturabo and his Legion suffered the Astartes-version of PTSD, and that it broke them. They were never real heretics, just broken men.

I totally agree - I never got the feeling Pertie wanted to fall. I don't think he ever gave a fuck towards Horus or the big E.

As a Veteran with 12 years of duty on his back the last 30 seconds hunts me .

This could be a nameless Iron warrior, or it could be Perturabo. I love the ambiguity.

Absolutely Perturabo. Absolutely sounds like him. Absolutely feels like how he views everything. Absolutely perfect and worthy of praise. Those 3 dislikes ABSOLUTELY DESERVE TO BE PURGED!!

Something, since I first heard about them, drew me to the Iron Warriors. I found myself searching for what it was. And here, I think, I found it.

"In an universe of lies, I failed to choose my own truth." Such a powerful ending line, couldn't have been better ! Hope your work get more views, 'cause you really deserve it.

Perturabo truly denied himself to be more than what he was simply created for

From an iron warriors fan this is better than some official audio books. Also how have you not blown up yet.

Personally I have a very big soft spot for the iron warriors. This has brought boundless joy, thank you for your work fella

This is beautiful. Iron Within and Iron Without, brother.

This really seems like Perturabo questioning his whole existence after the Heresy, and everything that happened after that. Questioning why he threw away his duty to the Imperium or to his sons, perhaps? Maybe even questioning if he was truly ever meant to be a general or a warlord.

Iron Warriors are my faves. This is very cool.

The rust of doubt. The psychological downfall of the iron warriors from the great crusade and beyond all within 10mins 😱. Awesome work 🔥🤘😎👍🔥

Ah, yes. The only tactically competent traitor Legion.

ol Purty wanted to be an engineer and creator, solving serious and complex problems using his genius. he didn't want to be a warrior general, always killing and destroying.

Iron Within Iron Without The Iron Warriors are truly tools of destruction in method and thought in every way

"...and I will always be alone." It makes me think of your other video with the Lamenters how in the depths of his anguish the Lamenter captain feels himself descending into blackness and tells himself the same thing. But his brother chaplain is there to help pull him up and out of his despair. Its the same feeling that is shared between the the loyalist and chaos forces but its acted upon in opposite ways. What's sad for me about the Iron Warriors is that it didnt have to be this way. If you alienate yourself one day you'll find that you are alone and the people that could have helped you aren't there anymore.

Great voice, very much so matches a Iron Warrior.

This is definitely Perturabo...what an awesome little character-study! Stellar narration 👌

First off, that was amazing voice work, I hope it didn't hurt you because that sounded....well lets say I hope most of it was sound effects. Good story too. Its tragic almost...The Iron Warrior in some sense realises that their path to Chaos was mistaken, not in any really deep emotional way but more as an analysis of the current state of affairs and their own choices involved in getting here. Clearly not optimal, so while we try to work out what to do next, we do what super soldiers do when they have no purpose....randomly kill and murder. You really made it work mr. Vox.

Perurabo’s issues speed run.

Mark Spark recommended your channel and I'm content it happened. Iron within brother. It was an honor to listen to this.

This is the story that inspired me to write 'Decimation'...still think its one of your best; awesome vocal work and ambient

IRON WITHIN!!

What a treat, im so deeply thankfull for this......I love the fourth.....iron within!

With every spoken word coming up I can imagine the pictures you are describing with this beautiful kind of storytelling. I love this feeling when listening to your videos, keep going, It´s awesome.

Well, that name takes on new meaning now, doesn't it?

I kinda feel his emotion. Awesome, good job and keep it up

That was a fun ride. Nice and bitter!

SO amazing! Had goosebumps almost the entire time. Iron Warriors are my most favourite Legion and this monologue fits so amazingly well. Iron within!

Iron Within, Iron Without!

Took me awhile to realise this is Perturabo lamenting his current position

My heart breaks for Perturabo.

Love it! Iron within!

Iron...Within...Brotha!

Mindblowing work!! FROM IRON COMETH STRENGHT!!

Very well done, it resonate. Iron Within!

This has helped me get closer with my iron warriors army than i ever could myself, thanks

Not sure if this is my favorite work because it captures the Iron Warriors perfectly or because I'm an Iron Warrior enthusiast and this gives me something cool to listen to about one of my favorite Legions.

Oh, wow! That was great!

I truly love your content. I really hope you keep it up. Thank you very much

This is beautiful and chilling. I’ve listened to it so many times and can’t stop. Keep up the good work!

I'm going on a listening binge. This work is very high quality. Thank you.

Comments for the lords of iron!

Perturabo:What is my purpose Emps: you pass butter…

Another awesome piece of work!!!

YOUR CHANNEL IS AMAZING

Poor perturabo

Damn good!

Holy shit this is amazing

Excellent narration. Iron within, Iron without!

This is my favorite of your many works.

Really awesome video! I love this character. I think he's the most interesting of all the ones in the 40k verse. I've encountered those who don't like him, don't appreciate him and don't identify with him. I guess some people don't really have a dark side, have never been on the edge of a total meltdown. If you ever have, you'll probably have sympathy for Perturabo. He has so many qualities of a hero, and he very nearly is one. But there's something flawed about him that drags him down into the abyss. I see him as being very much like Darth Vader. He might even be capable of redemption, but his resentment and stubbornness keeps him in a state of villainy. He's resigned to the role, probably because he doesn't think anyone would ever forgive him. It's because he can never forgive himself for his own mistakes.

This is absolutely unparalleled.

I listen to this everyday on the way into a job hate to lock in

This is worth living for

Mental picture of Peter turbo wearing a fedora reading this in a hippie coffee shop

This is really awesome

SUWEEEET MERCY🤯

True ironposting

Woo that was lit AF

Man now I hope a blood angel one gets done

amazing 👏🏻👏🏻

Amazing

This is great

" I am in an elevator and I must shart........once again I am alone........"

This was amazing! When are you going to do the World Eaters? Would love to see them done this way, oh and catch this Subscription Cousin!!!

Iron within Iron without

I literally worked out to this and it was amazing

Iron Warriors: the legion where everyday is a monday for them

Can BL just hire Liliedhe to write their novels rn?

What does a genetically made killing Machine think and how he deals with his purpose... how he accepts that he was made for a purpose of killing and nothing more. His acceptance of his fate yet the struggle to be more... man you captured this so well. Absolutely legend

Dude needs a hug

Iron within, Iron without.

Perterabo and his legion are the very epitome of 'seriously battle-hardened'... Man those guys were tossed into meat grinder after meat grinder. They simply don't care, and carry on...

Hey man, I absolutely love this. Gives me chills. You are the best 40k reader on youtube BAR NONE. Incredibly high level work, GW should employ you! I am an electronic music producer, and with your permission I want to make an extremely dark and sludgy techno song using your reading here as the focal part. Let me know if you are happy for me to do that.

Amazing, the voice is perfect. Cold and bitter

Atleast he admits it

Tbh perturabo had the same luck with the lamenters. Neither when he was loyal or traitor, him and his sons where shat on equally.

Who da thunk i would ever feel compasion and pitty for Perturabo.

God if I wasn't married to the Thousand Sons..

perturabo is my spirit animal

This is definitely Peturabo.

In Texas, we call this the Love of God.. ;)

Did u read yet how the iron warriors and Pert end up in the seige of terra. 14 legion redeemed!!!!

Damn

Is this an application form/ cover letter to join Khorne?

Sir. This is a Wendy's.

Perty kinda cute tho

Too intelligent to be deceived with false purpose, yet too shallow emotionally to find true purpose. A tragic character.
