The Primarch of Liberty Novel

In an alternative Warhammer 30k universe, the Emperor of Mankind uncovers the Independence Cluster—a collection of highly advanced planets that have retained knowledge from the Dark Age of Technology. Within this cluster, He finds His first Primarch, Franklin Valorian, who bears the title Symbol of Liberty. Valorian is a towering figure at 15 feet tall, distinguished by his charismatic personality and sense of humor. When the two meet, Valorian approaches the Emperor with both curiosity and a lack of reverence. Rather than viewing the Emperor as a divine being, Valorian perceives Him as an exceptionally powerful but fundamentally human individual who is driven by a noble mission—comparable to a superhero. This unique perspective sets Valorian apart from how others typically regard the Emperor, establishing a distinctive dynamic between the Primarch and his creator in this alternate timeline.
