Transcription, lines, lyrics and text version of the famous meme video – An excerpt from the book “Storm of Iron”, by Graham McNeill (2002). Voiced by burialgoods. An Imperial Guard commander duels an Iron Warrior Full script:
Vauban froze as he heard a voice in the smoke and an enormous figure in burnished, dust and blood stained armour wearily emerged from the swirling clouds before him. The warrior was helmetless, his close-cropped black hair tight agains his skull and his eyes burning with a hate that chilled Vauban to his very soul.
The two faced one another in silence until Vauban drew his power sword and assumed a relaxed fighting stance, though fear of this warrior pulsed along every nerve of his body. In a calm voice he said “I am Castellan Prestre de Roche Vauban the sixth, heir to the lands of Burgovah on the planet Joura, scion of the House of Vauban. Cross blades with me if you wish to die, foul demon.”
The warrior smiled. “I have no such impressive titles, human. I am called Honsou. Half-breed, mongrel, filth, scum. I will cross blades with you.”
Vauban activated the blade of his sword and dropped into a fighting crouch as Honsou approached. The battery fell silent as the two combatants circled one another, searching for a weakness in the other’s defence. Vauban raised his sword in salute and, without warning, leapt towards Honsou, thrusting with his energised blade.
Honsou swayed aside and swept his sword round, slashing the blade towards Vauban. He ducked and spun away, slashing high with his sword. Honsou deflected the sweep and stepped back, his sword raised before him. Vauban recovered his balance and advanced towards Honsou. He lunged again and Honsou expertly blocked the trust, rolling his wrists and slashing at Vauban’s head.
But he had read the move in Honsou’s eyes and the castellan dodged the blow. Wary now, the pair again circled each other, their defences alert for any sudden moves. Honsou attacked, a flashing whirlwind of steel, forcing Vauban backwards step by step. Vauban parried a vicious slash aimed at his chest, launching a lightning riposte at his foe. The blade scraped a deep furrow in Honsou’s armour, but slid clear before drawing blood.
Honsou retreated and Vauban followed with a grin of anticipation, launching himself at Honsou with fresh vigour. Honsou was a powerful warrior, but Prestre Vauban had been a student of swordplay his entire life and each attack drew fresh blood from his adversary.
He hammered his enemy’s defences again and again forcing him slowly backwards until Honsou stumbled and lost his footing. Vauban spun left and struck out at Honsou’s sword arm. Honsou was quick, bringing his block up just in time to intercept the blow, and their weapons met in a coruscating halo of sparks.
Vauban roared as Honsou’s blade snapped and his own smashed home. The Iron Warrior grunted in pain as his arm was severed just above the elbow. Honsou retreated, stumbling as blood sprayed from the stump of his arm. Seizing the opportunity, Vauban leapt in to deliver the deathblow, but, at the last second, realised that Honsou had lured him into the attack. Honsou roared and stepped to meet Vauban, slamming inside his guard and hammering the snapped lenght of his sword blade through his silver breastplate and into his heart.
White-hot pain flooded Vauban as Honsou twisted the blade, bright blood pouring down his chest and darkness veiling his sight. Had he heard someone crying his name? He felt his lifeblood pouring from him and looked into the eyes of his killer.
“Damn you…” he whispered.
“That happened a long time ago, human.” hissed Honsou, but Vauban was already dead.
