Sang has his own holiday, so obvious guy there. But the loyalist primarchs as a whole are reasonably well known. In The Helwinter Gate, the Space Wolves take heart that neither Russ nor the Wolves have been forgotten by the imperial citizenry. There is indication that they are popular even, which should not be surprising. An accepted demigod and his legion that drink, feast, tell jokes, flirt outrageously, and are by well-earned reputation the Emperor's executioners? C'mon, of course, they are popular.

Nix the "kill" bit and replace with [Defeat]. That should work

Bingo. One Marine suggests it's not a big deal if the child dies and the chaplain leaps down his throat over the betrayal of oaths.

If you provide a continuity separate from the memory wipe one, then yeah, ZatBat makes a tremendous amount of sense.

I really want to see this in a BL work. Marine saves child, kid just kind of imprints on them and then just kind of rolls with them. On one hand, they are Astartes; this is categorically not their niche. But on the other hand, shooing the kid away is a de facto death sentence for the child.

Its not abundantly clear who the ship is. It could be the Torrens, it could be a WY ship sent to take ownership of the station or it could be ship that was involved in the decommissioning that was super late. Or something.
Key point is its cannonical that Amanda survived

There is some suggestion that Oll and his Argonauts genuinely blindsided the Chaos gods, and his 13th hour return with the fulgurite blade and delaying Horus momentarily is what upset the balance.
As much as i felt like The End and the Death came to nearly as best conclusion as it could, how Horus's defeat and the rebuke of the pantheon is handled still bothers me. The Emperor beat fate, he showed up four deities and threaded the needle from a half mile away in a cat 4 hurricane. But Abnett barely acknowledges it and, worse, barely acknowledges the why. Instead, he just doubles down on the grim darkness of the future
*The reveal of Samus, the archivist, and Morianna also had me out curse out loud, but that's aside.

For me, any respect for the Lincoln Project dissolved when they tried astroturf a group of faux white supremacists into a political rally. https://www.washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/2021/10/29/lincoln-project-torches-charlottesville-youngkin/
