Not just one: the closest to power, the heir, the choosen one. Not Magnus maybe, for the events as they occurred. But eight of your sons is quite a big number.

Correct me if i'm wrong, but the Emperor personally rescue all of his Primarchs  (if not all, the vast mayority)  when Chaos scatterd them across the galaxy. And if some followed him, it was just for his charisma and actions he did personally. He did not send others.

On another post we are discussing of how much importance had the Webway Project in the Emperor "absence" during the facts that lead to the Horus Heresy.

Yet, is quite true to say the Empeor underestimate the importance of his presence to overlook things personally. He was not just a "busy" dad, he was a natural born leader, he was the Emperor of manking. I mean, even one of his legion worshipped him as a God already. If even this will not sound like an alarm bell...

As he did successfully to reunite his sons, he should did things first person. Maybe if he delt personally with the 2 missing Primarchs, maybe he would not act like he did.

The Webway project is of outmost importance, but it looks like the Emperor "connection" with his sons was already not so strong.
