I've been reading (if this is canon or not) The emperor will die soon near the end of the 41 or sooner. But if he dies he has sons of thousands or even millions that don't even know of their heritage. This so called "Sensei" is seemed out and protected by this Illuminati that are even higher ranks than the inquisition.

So.. They can be either sacrifaced. Or even better replace their farther and become the new Emperor of Mankind and lead another Great Crusade against the foes of the Imperium. And possibly be as physically and mentally strong as his father before him.

So there won't be The age of strife and there won't be any astronomic on faliures (until the new Emperor knows how to power the astronomicon for a few years) and the Spirit of the Old emperor into the new emperor. And then the Imperium of man will live on forever. Might be a possibility that it will be scared due to the tyranids approaching (so yeah canon or not our favorite fantasy will last for generations).
