I wanted to know, is it ever mentioned how loyal the Necron Phaerons still are to the Silent King?

I know that they are still very bound by tradition and that Szahrek still kind of has the title of a ruler, but, for example, would they come to aid him in battle if asked to?

And a second question, since the necrons were bound to the Triarch when they rebelled against the C'tan, does that mean that all necrons now despise the C'tan? Or would it be possible for there to be some dynasties that would still serve the C'tan since their total number is unknown, there isn't really a mention how many got away (except the Void Dragon).

They aren't, not really. Most Necron Overlords are more concerned with their own power.

And the latter point is possible, I guess.

As Void Dragon said, Necrons were only truly when they were at war wit hold Ones and when they were under Silent King's rule. And Silent King destroyed the machine that was keeping the entire Necron race under his control and as a result destroyed their best chance to be united again.

And since every Dynasty is different and have a will of their own it is possible that there is a dynasty that even worship the C'Tan.

Another thing, since the necrons seem to be very careful not to bring 2 C'tan shards near eachother, does that mean that 2 shards are all it takes for them to break free from their prison?

And, the C'tan now have other names such as the Deceiver is Meph'rethan, whose given names are these? Necron?

Mephet'ran was always what the Necrontyr called the Deceiver, dating back to their 3e codex.

Yupers.

1: The Silent King removed his command protocalls after he ordered the Necrons to bed. However with a big enough threat the Necrons could unit under the same banner again as the Triarch did with the Old Ones. It would just be more of a choice then when the command protocalls where in place.

2: I would have to dig it up later but somewhere in the new codex its suggested that there are Necrons who still serve the C'Tan. It was a complaint I had with the old to new fluff and someone pointed it out.

Its something along the lines of "Free C'Tan shards gathering loyal Necrons to them". It is in an old spot and I missed it untill it was pointed out.
