Requiem Infernal (Warhammer 40,000)

Product Information

What was Nurgle doing on the planet anyways at the beginning when it tries to possess the breachers? Providence has thus far only been explored in passing, first in Fire Caste and then subsequently in Requiem Infernal. It is home to a troubled alliance of diverse nations collectively known as the Arkan Confederation. Think how the Sabbat Worlds forms a universe-within-a-universe within Warhammer 40,000 – the Dark Coil is like that to a certain extent, only in a more abstract way. The worlds of the Dark Coil

Consider this a useful resource for any Coil Traveller, whether as a starting point for those taking their first steps along the Coil, or a point of reference by which experienced travellers can reorient themselves. The scope of the Coil is such that it’s impossible to examine every link individually, but here you can find an overview of the two clearest types of connection – the worlds of the Dark Coil, and the main factions that inhabit, visit or invade them. I’ll leave the specifics for you to discover yourself, so you need not fear that any secrets will be revealed, but this should see you onto the right paths. It was you all along. And watching character after character face that, and bow before it, was exhausting and incredibly painful. All the good intentions, all the highest benedictions and blessings, all the people that we want, need to be good -- none of them are strong enough. They never were. The second world to be explored, and the first in real detail, for many Coil Travellers this is where the fascination began. Phaedra, or Fi’draah as it’s known to the T’au Empire, is a world of tangled island chains and foetid fungal jungles, at the heart of which lies a labyrinth of tributaries known as the Dolorosa Coil.PF: The specific imagery or names usually arise when I develop a theme. In the case of the Angels Resplendent I’ve known about the personal artwork on their shoulder pads since The Crown of Thorns, but the actual pictures were chosen when I wrote the relevant scenes. The Mona Lisa reference was an exception to that. I’ve wanted to use it since I first painted a Space Marine and knew such a feat was beyond my own abilities. Actually that’s probably where the first glimmerings of the chapter itself appeared. The hunters always moved by night, only emerging from their lair when the darkness was absolute. They had no memory of where they had come from, nor had they the capacity to care, but the imperative that drove them was clear.” Warhammer 40,000 is one of those popular franchises that can be rather intimidating for new readers. Given that the setting is 10,000 years long and a galaxy wide, it’s no surprise that many get a little lost, especially with the wide range of potential stories on offer. The Coil also expresses my preference for stories without absolute answers, where reader engagement and interpretation are as important as the framework the author creates. Like my views on Chaos, I’ve talked about this at length in my previous interview, but it’s worth stating again because it’s the soul of the Coil. If that’s not for you, then neither is the Coil. Non-wh40k Excerpt] [A Practical Guide to Evil] "I want to be the storm" - and a bit about the evilness and stormness of Chaos with wh40k excerpts

This guide would not have been possible without the generous help of Peter Fehervari himself, Tim van Lipzig, Yury Voytko, Rostislav Markelov and Nine. The insidious Genestealer menace lurks beneath the surface of the Dark Coil, with its tendrils particularly deep within the world of Redemption. To say more risks revealing secrets best left for Coil Travellers to discover themselves, while reading Cult of the Spiral Dawn and Cast a Hungry Shadow.I read the opening to Peter Fehervari's Requiem Infernal. This book is unlike any other 40k book I've yet to come across (probably more due to my not having read that much at this point than anything else). An Imperial shrine world, Vytarn – known as the Candleworld – was a water world, afflicted by lethal tempests and hiding a long-buried darkness. Its main physical feature is the Koronatus Ring, an archipelago consisting of a central cathedral built into a mountainous island, surrounded by seven smaller spires/islands, each named after one of the Imperial Virtues.

We agreed to bow out together, did we not?’ Mercy said playfully as she started climbing again. ‘Besides, I was never your captor, sister. That was always you!’PF: Hopefully it will leave them with an enduring sense of an alternative – stranger, darker, deeper – incarnation of 40k that sits alongside the more epic visions. This is my best shot at a mature, complex and genuinely grim novel. It took a long time to complete, during which it pretty much took over my life, so I hope readers will meet its challenge head-on and at least respect the work that went into it. Naturally, I also hope many – or enough – will enjoy it, even if it’s the uneasy kind of pleasure that good horror stories should leave in their wake. And if it pulls a few more courageous souls into the wider web of the Dark Coil that would be wonderful! There’s only so long a writer can keep going on the outermost fringes… For yet more information about the Dark Coil, I can recommend the following videos from some of the amazing Fehervari fans in Russia (via Rost-Light on Reddit):
