you can't. Slaves to Darkness is a MUST READ on this front, it really hammers home how UTTERLY NAIVE the traitor primarchs where. ESPECIALLY Horus,
Slave to darkness is what drew me into 40k properly after messing about for a while. It was just so bonkers and full of character. As a teenager I did a book review of it at school and the stoners in the class were blown away by the idea of chaos. Such a geek thing to do looking back on it.
And PM. Isn’t abandon archaon really.?????
Abbadon wishes he could have a fraction of Archaons awesome.

Archoan always seemed to me to be chosen as opposed to thinking he had bettered them. He was more nails because he knew they all had his back as opposed to trying to use them.

Archaon turned from being a Sigmarite priest to full-on-chaos due to reading some old text. What would that have been?

Archaon. He was a knight who found a prophecy Archaon was gna destroy the world. Then he found the second part he , Diederick, would be Archaon. So he threw a hissy fit, and became Archaon. The ultimate self-fullfilling prophecy.
