I apologise CaptainAndrath for infuriating you.I know that and this is what i meant.

The soul of The Emperor  was that of the collective shaman souls, they created for themselves a new body, altering the dna of a fetus in the womb and then merging into the one very powerful soul of the being they created. The created child was then born from a normal human female and possibly didn`t mature quickly and didn`t have full acess to his powers from early childhood. Being created suggests instanteniously emerging from thin air, or something else, i meant born to remove the notion of rapid creation. I hope that makes it clear.

Here is another thought, the reason for the rapid growth of the primarchs was because they were created to be very impressionable as children. If the childhood is any longer that increases the chances of being corrupt or scarred psychologicaly. The enviroment and people the primarchs were surrounded by from that very delicate state of development defined who they became. Those lucky enought to have caring foster parents, with which a bond was formed with ultimately were with a more stable and balanced mind, such as Dorn, Russ or those accepted by a tribe and its members. My guess is The Emperor simlpy didn`t expect something like a warp storm to take them away, and probably had a plan on how to raise them correctly and remove any character faults.

Very good observation on the two lost primarchs, i agree with that.

The Emperors distrust and abhorrence towards Chaos and any Xeno species probably increased immensely when the Dark Age of Technology lead to the near extinction of mankind, then He decided that Mankind alone will rule the galaxy.

Despite the increased distance of The Emperor from the rest of humanity He did have close, trusted freinds to give him counsel such as Malcador and Valdor. They were not as removed from normal humans and could therefore be the connection between The Emperor and His people. The biggest factor to The Emperors `dehumanization` if you will, was time itself, He lived for 30 000 years or more. The amount of freinds and loved ones that died must have been overwhelming and for that reason He had freinds that aged much slowly, and were vital.
