Shard Of An Ancient God! The Blade of Antwyr And The Most Stubborn Of All Grey Knights Garran Crowe! 

I like to imagine Crowe just puttering around, going about his day in a completely ordinary fashion with the sword resting against his pauldron, whistling like Mickey Mouse on his boat all the while.

The funny thing is, the daemon sword is learning what it is to be a mortal in the clutches of a wholly indifferent or cruel being. Imagine how much it would give up just to be used just a tiny bit. Not too different from a slanneshi cultist who needs a taste. But they always need more and the thing they want it from doesn't care and holds all the cards.

@@akuinator6350 i kinda pictinring as the indiferent janitor, " well the sword is speaking but i gotta clean that floor" "i dont get paid to care"

Thr Grey knight xcom game shows Crowe does have a personality of sorts, and isn't a simpleton. He's just... more of an automaton when it comes to safeguarding chaos contraband.

@@andrewgause6971 that's what I've always thought, cause no "simpleton" can survive something that can just brute force through someone's natural mental barriers. This man is more of a living robot so deeply ingrained in his mental barriers that he simply dosent have a care for emotions or ideals.

@@trip9845 🤣🤣

and yet people will say that retconning the grey knights to be the genesons of the prototype primarch would be bad writing, hes an autist, and so are they

@@TS-jm7jm I like the sound of that actually, I really like the sound of that.

Crowe slowly turns to face his brother purifyer. Crowe has never been seen without the daemon blade for over 100 years; and his grip never loosened, and only grew tighter as the screeching blade began hurling such vile insults and obsenities that it'd make a slaaneshi daemon blush. Crowe let the blade tire itself until audible weeping can be heard; before turning around and continued walking towards his chambers...a small satisfied smile on his face beneath his helmet.

Lol. Lmao perhaps. Kek even.

The Virgin Fulgrim: I-I couldn't help it, I couldn't stop myself from killing my b-brother. That blade... it was just too powerful... too cunning... The Chad Crowe: Yeah I just take it to the bathroom with me. I remember there was one time we were out of toilet paper. Antwyr: *daemonic screaming*

@@justinjohnson1695 Reminds me of a scene from some cartoon or comic I read years ago but forgot where about that sort of predicament. Where the incredible sword was stuck between a giant’s butt cheeks and left to whine about it. But the real scene that comes to mind from your comment is in the Marvel Zombies Evil Dead Crossover comics where Ash convinces the evil and ancient book the Necronomicon to send him to another universe because the zombies might eat the book because it is made from human skin and written in blood. Except when the zombified heroes of Marvel find the Necronomicon; Cap America just tosses it to Zombie Hulk, who would go on to use it as toilet paper. TLDR; an ancient tome of pure evil and malice was going to be used by a zombified, rotting version of The Hulk as ass wiping paper.

The sword Crowe has might actually be worse than the sword Fulgrim picked up too.

@@AdeptKing Are we sure on that? Because the sword Fulgrim picked up was able to eject his fricken soul out of his body, depending on where you read about that canon, and stashes it inside a painting of Fulgrim. The fact Fulgrim steals his own body back is just goes to show how damned powerful the soul of a Primarch is.

Passion is superfluous to requirement. There is no want, only need. There is a sword that needs to be contained. It will be. That is all.

'witness the field in which I grow my fucks, Antwyr. Witness it, and notice it is barren.'

Pure distilled Generation X

This model should be allowed to keep the armor of contempt rule.

“Bros he mad fr fr.”

Hoes mad Hoes mad

He angy

I can definately imagine the Crowe does have more than a little fun at the fact Antwyr just can't taint him he doesn't rub it in of course but I can see him flashing a little satisfied grin at him now and again to say my will is stil intact.

I love this thought. Hilarious.

An unbreakable tool is a weapon onto itself

Counter point, his brain has so many wrinkles that in practice it has become smooth.

@@goingforgold_8536 where does that come from?

You're mistaking him for Anwal Trawn. Then again you only find out you're perpetual the first time you die.

@@DoctorM42Crowe is simply too dense to die.

Antwyr probably wants to be able to drink.

​@@cryamistellimek9184Man's soul is as thick as his skull.

You know that blade was screaming that entire time. Skulltaker probably left when the blade started to beg him to kill the grey knight.

Better yet skull taker was to busy laughing in his own head to focus on killing the gray knight.

​@@ronardojohn1057oh you *know* Khorne had to find the whole thing hilarious. "Look, I am the literal anthropomorphic embodiment of rage and hate and fury and mindless bloodshed... but I am also a God of martial prowess... and I just watched a metaphorical grandson of The Anathema beat one of my dudes into a pulp with a dull sword over the course of half a day through nothing more than the power of raw determination and spite! I have to give credit where it is due."

@@andrewgause6971 damn that was highly specific and true.

Goodbye horses starts playing

that sword really need a hug and a cup of coffee

It's gotta be either willpower or such a sheer amount of autism.

I believe the guy was just simply extremely authistic, cause if you are intelligent there is no way you would not yield in some sense to something like that, its not force of will, for him it was just, meh

I think it’s still working on acceptance. It seems to bounce around the first four steps pretty wildly.

​@@aureliogialluca704I suspect that the 666 "mind ra-" errr "trials of the emperor" scouring away all his prior memories and personality helped.

I'm in a battle playing Forgotten Hope (a mod of BF1942) on a new map I had never played on and I had just pushed up to the last capturable area in front of the enemy's main spawn point and getting myself comfortable for a bit of KDR padding with a scoped rifle when 😵 and the weapon I was ☠ with was a "Noob Stick"...😑 Took me a bit but I eventually found that thing. It was a pickup kit/weapon just laying on a table in that one area and only on that map. That "kit" had no grenades, no pistol, no rifle, no landmines, no plunger and explosives, not even a knife,,, nothing but a two foot piece of wood with a single nail driven through one side and out the other. The fights to claim that thing were epic.😁

Blade of antwyr is aquired by ork Bozz. Blade offers up monstrous powers . Bozz just uses it to skratch his arse.

Ha ha metal stick go WHACK.

@@sadwingsraging3044 Using emotes to replace words in that comment made me more violent.

@@Yorkington 🤷‍♂️👏🏻

COULD YOU IMAGINE?????HAAAAA

Always with sandwiches and tanna leaf tea on hand and DOESN'T forget the marshmallows.

Brother Jurgen, please stop tormenting the tech priests.

Would you like some tea sir..

Maybe Jurgen is chopping sandwiches with the sword somewhere, right now. That or it’s strapped to a melta like a bayonet.

I even read that in the voice from TTS...

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA! I CAN HEAR HIM 😂😂

‘Try to take my mind over. If you can! You’ll find that my mind is quite well *fortified* ‘

who wants a blessed oiling?

Chuck Norris approved 😂😂😂

Soy Daemon Sword vs Chad Grey Knight

Considering that Daemons do not understand time as mortals do, and that this sword-bound spirit now faces very possibly what must feel like eternity in the hands of an autistic brick... I can see it.

that would be vanity, and antwyr would have certainly exploited that.

@@RedSampler I think it’s more of a statement of fact more so than bragging.

@@RomanvonUngernSternbergnrmfvus statements of ''facts'' and vanity go hand in hand, no one knows if his brain is the smoothest in the universe ,crowe can,t possibly know that. nor could antwyr, so that would make antwyr curious as to why crowe would make such a statement. if there is one thing demons like this one can,t stand its humbleness. but this is just how i percieve antwyr (doesn,t mean im right). antwyr simply doesn,t have an answer for the stoic silent humble nature of crowe.

@@RedSampler It’s a grey knight, there’s decent odds of him being goth when he says that, we don’t know if there’s a line of grey knights who are just perfecting being a root vegetable or not.

@@RomanvonUngernSternbergnrmfvus i understand, but to make that statement of fact, while we ourselves even don,t know for sure and therefore not a fact..., would give antwyr a foothold. maybe valdor the emps , some blank, or another greyknight could be able to keep the sword without it being a problem.(but because crowe keeps it we will not find out) for sure we know that fulgrim can,t🤣 😂🤣

i imagine its something along the lines of skulltaker talking to korne like hey boss how'd you like that battle and korne is just laughing his ass off with gork and mork because the whole time the greyknight skulltaker was fighting was using a top tier demon blade like a tire iron because the man was too set on keeping antwyr in check to even think of letting go of it's leash

Khorne: so..... how'd it go ^⁠_⁠^ Skulltaker:....I don't want to talk about it. I'm going to bed.

Khorne: *laughing* oh man never i could have imagined that lil shit antwyr being humiliated like this! Skulltaker: Glad you´re having fun boss.... ow... everything hurts.

We know Khorne has humor, because when Tuska the Demonkilla crushed one of his Daemonprinces balls as a last "fuck you", he was so impressed he made orks be reborn everyday to fight an eternal battle. It's an ork valhalla, effectively.

You just hear crying and wailing from the sword in the midst of battle and maybe calms down being wiped down and oiled or would that be awkward?

It will probably make the deliberate decision to disassociate from reality fully and pretend to be a japanese school girl or some shit.

"Eventually, Antwyr stopped thinking"

crowe: sword don't talk. it cut and stab antwyr: no crowe: fine, then sword bash antwyr: wait wha-AHH! OWW! STOP IT!

I didn’t even notice LMAO

I went back to look, and hot damn. Its even funnier on rewatch for it.

Grey Knights are my guilty pleasure. Sometimes it’s nice to have a group of perfect little goody-two-shoes’ fighting against pure “evil”. Grey Knights are fun

He has perfected his art. Quite impressive.

@@sadwingsraging3044 Especially considering that English isn't even his first language!

Not even a chaos daemon, a minor chaos god

The ring, though, is much more terrifying, as nothing short of eru or morgoth could resisit it, no matter how smooth brain you were it would corrupt you, no matter how long it needed to wait it would wait, worst part? It could cause things to happen. It got stuck in the bottom of the ocean? Welp time to cause a nearby fish to eat it, get either caught by a fisherman or wind up on the shore, it got stuck in a box and thrown deep underground? Well, well, well, it's time to cause an earth qauke that'll unearth the box and maybe crack it open. It's got taken by some rando? And he isn't wearing it? Welp those orcs are useful, got taken by a hobbit and now stuck in a cave? Well, now isn't this interesting. there's another hobbit nearby who can take it, the ring is dangerous cause its will is to find its master and thats it, and God forbid you find yourself at mt.doom where its at its strongest, the only reason why golum fell in is cause he made a promises on a magic item and that in tolkiens universes pretty much binds you to said promises and golum broke it and allowed eru to intervene... yep, you heard right eru, who is tolkiens version of GOD in his story had to intervene and it wasnt the first time either, he had to intervene against sauron twice at this point, so yeah the sword has agency and its own plan but cant do much in bigger scales in reailty, the ring on the other hand (hehheheh) is dangerous cause how it can work with reailty to manipulating events to cause its escape, and no matter how pure, how strong, how smooth brain you are, you will indeliblely be over taken by the ring and its power unless your eru or morgoth but thats unfair as eru is just God in another name and morgoth is lucifer in another name

I reckon they’d be mighty annoyed at why the weird sword in the reliquary is constantly breaking it’s scabbard, because I imagine that they’re connection to the warp is so cut off that they probably can’t hear it’s raving mad pleas for someone to end it’s torture. And then, with a loud dull thud, it falls over on the floor.

I'm wondering if there are Orks who paint themselves silver because it makes them extra-fighty against demons.

To add insult to injury, whatever was happening on vraks warranted the deployment of 3 brotherhoods or companies of Grey knights. So Angron and the forces he commanded taking over a world were less of a priority than whatever was happening in a pocket on Vraks during its seige.

AT LEAST a hundred of them.

Angron seeing on a hud [ The Waaaahg didn't like that] after killing Yarik.

@@theclonelieutenant5976 To be fair, Angron is a known quantity for the Grey Knights to deal with. In Vraks' case, everyone didn't have a clue WHAT was coming other than "pretty fucking bad", so overkill is warranted.

Dawww ❤❤❤

Imagine giving a daemon sword stockholm syndrome.

​​@@MrReich1918... why did my mind go to slaanesh having that for someone wtf

Crowe would probably write what it said down word for word in silence, pass the book off to his boss, who would read it, assume he is lying, and ignore it.

@@njnjco . If I were the sword, I would do my best to imitate the tide talking stain commercial during important meetings.

Skulltaker: STOP PLAYING AND FIGHT ME SERIOSLY ANTWYR! Antwyr: I CAN'T DO IT YOU MORON! Crowe:....no

And the combined trauma of Antwyr’s suffering makes him pledge loyalty to the emperor lmao

And Kaldor Draigo.

I'm curious if Antwyr would consider "self-shattering" to release himself from being wielded like a jedi hack lightsaber bat. Also, if Crowe maintains the blade or if that would make things awkward.

It’s mentioned that they are equal in different ways. Drach’nyen is a beat stick while Antywr is a sinister crouppter

@@sessy01 I imagine Crowe tried, realized the blade could not be sharpened normally, then stopped.

@@sessy01 I feel like it doesn’t have the ability to break itself else it’d have done it to escape before now. If it’s indeed the shard of a former god, I could see the other Chaos Gods taking many precautions to avoid that very scenario if they were the ones who sealed him away.

Khorne literally got cockblocked 😂

Would a demon sword unpowered wanna break itself, or are there awkward moments as the blade is maintained?

​@@sessy01considering the blade doubles as a prison it probably repairs itself to a degree. After all. The Grey Knights originally tried to destroy the blade figuring Antwyr would slightly less of a threat to humanity if they could boot it out of material universe if they couldn't kill it.
