Possibly both. However if the Starchild was to materialize as a consequence of The Emperors `death`, even unleashing a horde of deamons upon Terra and the Imperial Palace would be, for me, an acceptable price to pay for the return of The Emperor.

What you say is true, consider this. There are ten thousand Adeptus Custodes, protecting the Imperiam Palace. They are the best and most dangerous warriors humanity has to offer, apart from the Primarchs and The Emperor Himself. These 10 000 are the most elite, and there are 300 of them, The best of the best, that act as The Emperor`s personal bodygards, in the chamber where the Golden Throne is located. They are in His presence constantly, and watch over Him at all times. I don`t even want to speculate about how capable a warrior just one of them is.

When the psychic attack of Magnus destroyed, and that `breach` happened it was the Sisters of Battle along with the Adeptus Custodes that pushed them back. What The Emperor did was to close that breach, and keep it that way until it was repaired.

What you say is true, if The Emperor dies, then that breach would be opened and all sorts of demons and creatures will come forth. When and if that happenes i am very confident that the Adeptus Custodes will hold them off, atleast for a long while, until some way to close that breach is found, not sure if there even is one, however, make no mistake, when and if The Emperor dies it would be a tremendous event, therefore perhaps the surge of unleashed power might close the breach, or all sorts of things might happen. Perhaps some defence or event might close that breach. And I personally would be more worried about the Void Dragon and the Tyranids, then whatever demons come from the webway.
