In The Chapter's Due, it says 'Droplets of blood from the fatal wound inflicted by a fallen brother hang suspended like the brightest rubies....' (emphasis mine) making it seem like the stasis field was activated immediately the wound was inflicted, with blood still spraying, so wouldn't the field have trapped Fulgrim as well?

Do any other novels describe these events?

Or, as he was a primarch, was he strong enough to survive the injury long enough to sit/lie down and for the apothecaries to reach him while Fulgrim slithered off?

(On Ultramar, as he's on display, is he seated or prone?) Just read further in the book, he is seated on a throne....so was he sitting down when Fulgrim slit his throat?

No idea how they got him in there but I assume it's like you said, he survived long enough to be put into it by some apochathery. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/716606/9183080.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/716606/9183080.page GMT SM codex, pg 22 in the "Shrine of the Primarch" it says "Within this edifice is the marble throne of Roboute Gilliman, upon which sits a regal corpse."

How he got there from wound to throne is open to debate.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/716606/9187640.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/716606/9187640.page GMT
