The Fragment of the Emperor's Soul was a piece of the Emperor's soul that He cast out into the Warp, during the Horus Heresy's Siege of Terra.

帝皇灵魂碎片是在荷鲁斯叛乱泰拉围城期间，他抛入亚空间中的一块帝皇灵魂。

History 历史

This was from aboard the Vengeful Spirit, after the Perpetual John Grammaticus‎ convinced the Emperor to cast off the massive warp energy He had gathered to defeat Horus with. This prevented the Emperor from becoming the Chaos God known as the Dark King, but He knew that in doing so, His chance of defeating Horus had dropped significantly. Now to be able to kill Horus and save the Imperium, the Emperor would need to call upon every single advantage He had left at His disposal. So as the Emperor dispelled the Warp energy, He also cast off a fragment of His soul that contained almost all of His hope, mercy, grace, loyalty, compassion and love.

这是在永生者约翰·格拉马迪库斯说服帝皇释放他为击败荷鲁斯而聚集的巨大亚空间能量之后，从复仇之魂号上传来的‎ 。这阻止了帝皇成为被称为黑暗之王的混沌之神，但他知道这样做，他击败荷鲁斯的机会大大下降了。现在，为了能够杀死荷鲁斯并拯救帝国，帝皇需要利用他剩下的每一个优势。因此，当帝皇驱散亚空间能量时，他也抛弃了他灵魂的一部分，其中几乎包含了他所有的希望、怜悯、慈悲、忠实、同情和爱。

The Emperor knew these aspects of Himself would not only hinder His ability to kill his wayward son, but would also cause Him to become consumed by self-hatred and regret for doing so, if He still possessed them. If that were to occur, then the Emperor would condemn Himself to the same embittered path that had corrupted Horus. The Emperor also knew He would need to commit atrocities to rebuild the Imperium after the Horus Heresy had ended, which these aspects would prevent Him from accomplishing. However as the fragment entered the Warp, the Emperor hoped He would one day be able to reclaim it and become whole once more. This was witnessed by Malcador the Sigillite, as he sat upon the Golden Throne, and he believed that, just as the Chaos Gods did, the fragment would eventually grow larger by absorbing a coalescence of emotions and beliefs, that were drawn into the Warp.

帝皇知道，他自己的这些方面不仅会阻碍他杀死任性儿子的能力，而且如果他仍然拥有这些方面，也会让他被自我憎恨和后悔所吞噬。如果发生这种情况，那么帝皇将谴责自己并走上与被腐化的荷鲁斯一样的痛苦之路。帝皇也知道，在荷鲁斯叛乱结束后，他需要犯下暴行来重建帝国，这些方面将阻止他完成。然而，当碎片进入亚空间时，帝皇希望有一天他能够夺回它，再次变得完整。掌印者马卡多坐在黄金王座上时见证了这一刻，他相信，就像混沌之神一样，碎片最终会通过吸收被卷入亚空间的情感和信仰的融合而变得更强大。
