May have been asked a thousand times if so sorry, but do you think that Dante's vision of him dying for a greater cause will ever happen with GW or BL. (Hopefully BL since I don't play the TT and have no use for a codex) Yet, I fear this will happen when big E gets off the golden toilet, primarch unicorn and dragon are finally found with their legions, Fulgrim regaining control of his body, Russ being paper trained, or Girlieman finally healing and coming out of stasis, last but not least Logar realizing he's a tool.

Unlikely; GW have advanced a few minor tabletop characters' narratives (Tycho, for instance), but they have never (thus far at least) sought to progress the setting's meta-narrative.

Actually... Fulgrim might have exorcised himself already, it's uncertain, but a possibility.

Is there any real implication to that?

That's how I read it in 'The Primarchs'.

Not to get off topic but what are they ever going to do with Cypher? He's one of the most mysterious and intriguing characters maybe in the history of 40k and yet GW doesn't even have rules for him at the moment???

agreed there is so much room for potential there

We can only hope our good Dante dies in an epic battle for the good of the imperium, such as for instance, protecting the reborn infant Emperor. Psykers could feel the untold emenating power surging from the younglins body from across the galaxy. Just like the angel, sanguinius died battling horus. As you know the only reason the emperor killed horus was because the angel punctured a hole in his chaos armor. in the end dante dies but the space marines repel the chaos attack and bring the emperor in baby form to some massive fortress monastary (as terra was destroyed by chaos orks ect) as the emperors system was rebooting in the warp.

I was thinking he would die, while holding the eternity gate alone just like sangy. As Dante is doing this the GK's and custodes are reviving or killing big E. Yet, Dante could have a gene seed of a member that died before sangy did so, Dante dies fighting the bloodthrister that broke sang, when they recover his seed the apoth's learn how to cure the red thirst, and black rage.
