To Maxillio Luminor Martel, life seemed perfectly flawless. He has earned a position as a Petroknight, one of the emperor's elite guards. It is a position millions have pursued, yet few ever achieved, and it comes with the strongest vow of loyalty to the emperor that anyone could give.

The Hearth-Door: A Primarch's Vow by WarhammerEnthusiast

In the grim darkness of the 41st Millennium, there was one Primarch who refused to hate. Baram, the Shield of Jotunheim, Primarch of the Ironhearts (Vth Legion), was a bulwark of impossible strength and devastating compassion. He wielded the Hearth-Door, a colossal shield meant to guard every single soul, believing the true strength of the Imperium lay not in its weapons, but in the people he protected. But when Horus betrayed the Emperor, Baram was thrust into a civil war that shattered his vow of unity. He was forced to fight the rage of Angron, confront the chilling logic of Guilliman, and face the ultimate failure: he could not save his brothers. Now, as the Imperium burns, Baram makes one final, tragic choice: to reject the rules of war and retreat to the galactic edge. He will take his shattered Legion to the farthest reaches of the stars, becoming the Eternal Sentinel-the shield for the forgotten. This is the untold story of the Primarch who fought not for conquest, but for the broken hearts of humanity.

But destiny does not forget. i don't own Warhammer or Naruto its belong to the original owner i only own the story and idea...😁

The Iron Seraph by RedImperium

It was supposed to be an ordinary strike mission. Get in, kill the xenos, liberate the human captives, and get out. But that was not what happened. Sergeant Adrian Aurelius embarked in a drop pod, alone; ready to make planetfall. But mysterious phenomena propelled the Astartes onto a planet that was not the intended target... nor within the system the battle was taking place... Neither was it within the same galaxy. This story follows his adventures in this new world, as he is forced to adapt to the environment around him... and whatever else it may contain.

Aquila by Ulthwe

Commander Caius Atelinas is many things: angel, demon, soldier, saint, and above all, an Ultramarine. A distinguished veteran of uncounted battles, his squad is often sent on some of the most dangerous missions to defend the Imperium of Man from the enemies of Mankind no matter where they show their faces. When he is sent on a mission to retrieve a stranded Tech-Priest on an isolated world at the edge of Imperium Space, he finds himself confronted with something much more dangerous than a downed space craft. Soon confronted by agents of Chaos, an Orkish invasion, and a squad of Aeldari all seeking the Tech-Priest or the ruination of the planet, Caius and his squad find themselves at the forefront of a fight that will put their skills to the test and sets Caius on the collision course with an unexpected ally - Farseer Naudan Bahad of Craftworld Ulthwé, his long-time rival and one-time ally, who has come to the planet seeking out a familiar foe and a mystery that they both believe had faded into the shadows. --- STORIES IN THE SERIES: 0.

The Aegis Vow: Sovereign Arbiter by WarhammerEnthusiast

He was the only son of the Emperor who dared to call the Imperium a failure. Primarch Valerius was lost to the annals of history, a forgotten relic of the Great Crusade. Unlike his zealous brothers, Valerius was not ruled by faith or fury, but by one absolute law: The Doctrine of Necessary Utility. When the Sovereign Arbiter of Humanity's Survival returns, he finds the Imperium crippled by superstition, bureaucracy, and a war fought with obsolete doctrine. The revered Codex Astartes is merely a roadmap to failure, and the High Lords are worse than any Xenos threat. Valerius refuses to lead a rebellion. Instead, he begins a surgical, systematic crusade to prove that the only path to survival is absolute, ruthless efficiency. He builds the Aegis Imperium, unites the fragmented Space Marine Chapters under his cold, logical command, and forces Roboute Guilliman to yield to a new form of governance. His purpose is singular, and his final vow is the most dangerous of all: to gather forbidden relics, breach Holy Terra, and attempt the impossible-to restore his broken father on the Golden Throne. A Primarch's logic will either save humanity or shatter it forever. Experience the saga of the Primarch who broke every rule of the 41st Millennium to fulfill the Final Vow.

Traitor Trickster by Astral_Astraea

Human rights are reserved for humans, right? Maybe wearing one's skin isn't enough to merge into the mortal world. Many of us, variants if you prefer to regard us nicely, otherwise monsters, are born with otherworldly specialties. And those born without it considered us curses to the land while we saw it as superpowers. They call us monsters yet they're the ones hunting us. Till it was me they're hunting down, they locked me in a facility with horrific scientists. The other variants are my allies, the facility, our enemy. The leader of the facility is just another one of us, but he's standing on the opposite side, battling against us. Everyone can lie, but no one can deceive a psychic. Standing before him, you can't hide anything. Your thoughts, your schemes, the psychic hears it all. I, like every other variant locked in this place, dreamed of escaping. Continuous outrageous breakouts just to get recaptured? I need a disparate way, a more intriguing method to sneak myself out of here. Kaysen Hayes, leader of the facility, his job is to keep us all contained. Anyone who dares to escape will come to face him, and he never fails to trick us, put us into defeat. A few variants earned their alliance with the facility, like tamed animals, they'll come to help whenever there's a breakout. When I saw one of those variants, traitorous ideas sprung to my mind. But I need not wait long till the offer comes to me in person. How long until he runs out of tricks? How long does loyalty last? Tricks don't last forever, and so does loyalty.

Recalls of Surrender by RileyDavj

Alchemy has always been a key to understanding the universe, yet it has often been dismissed as mere superstition. The truth seared through my veins like scorching heat, igniting every cell of my being with a searing, uncompromising judgment. I sacrificed everything-my strength and sense of identity-chasing after an overwhelming purpose. Duty and conviction waged a war against a primal yearning for freedom, unleashing a maelstrom of emotions that threatened to tear me apart. This internal hell fueled an insatiable, maddening lust for vengeance, obliterating my moral compass and propelling me toward utter destruction. Only when I made a final decision did the fundamental principles of morality seem to slip through my fingers like grains of sand. Each savage blow against the oppressive system left me questioning: am I a righteous crusader, or a monster consumed by hatred? The poisonous doubt gnawed at my mind, suffocating my thoughts with insidious whispers. Yet, I found the strength to silence them. With fierce determination burning in my veins, I vowed to break free from the chains of oppression or die trying. Fear would not hold me captive any longer. As I teetered on the edge of life and death, I couldn't help but wonder: would I emerge victorious or succumb to the relentless wheels of fate? The answer lies shrouded in the mists of an uncertain future, but one thing is irrefutable: win or lose, every decision will ignite an inferno of change. This cataclysmic revolution will raze the old world and herald the birth of a new era. In this cosmic roulette, even the most steadfast warriors can turn to dust in the blink of an eye. Therefore, are you willing to participate? Given that there always was, is, and will be war. Hope stands stronger than fear, yet anything is possible when darkness lingers. It is the deflection of accountability and guilt. Yet when all seems lost, trust that the butterfly knows where the water flows.
