@nerthos The Emperor fights Horus, not killing him outright believing he could save him, in the process suffering grave wounds. After a long time of fighting, a couple loyal soldiers enter the fight to help the Emperor, getting utterly crushed by the godlike Horus. Then the Emperor realizes there's no saving Horus, and kills him in one strike with a psychic blast. The Emperor is mortally wounded by the fight though, and commands Dorn, one of the loyal primarchs, and basically the greatest engineer/architect the imperium has left to turn the golden throne into a life support device and the Emperor is entombed there, very slowly decaying for ten millenia having to mantain the Astronomican to keep humanity from falling apart. More aliens show up, technology is lost again, and we reach the current setting of WH40k in the ending days of the 41st millenium.
