Description :EDIT: I almost forgot; my storyline and basis for this will come from three sources: the princesses from Disney, the Marines and Imperium from 40k, and some style and design from the Sailor Moon series.



The seventh and last preview: Princess Jasmine of Agrabah. Idea: the Disney princesses, after the events in their films, are living their happily ever afters with their true loves. Happiness, love, and paradise surround them.

But, unfortunately, cruel fate is to befall them. All over their kingdoms an unknown enemy assails them. It brings legions of monsters, undead, fanatics, plagues, berserkers, supernatural forces, and gigantic armored warriors to lay waste to their kingdoms. None of the Disney couples have faced anything like this. The princesses' true loves fight valiantly to defend their homes, but in the end, all are killed by this unknown enemy, their souls sacrificed to the four primordial gods. The princesses, lost and shaken, flee and converge together, saddened beyond belief at the loss of their kingdoms and the deaths of their true loves. Yet hope still remains.

For out of nowhere, eighteen warriors appear, all of them armored and massive. These warriors are the senior commanders of the Adeptus Astartes (Space Marines), and servants of a now-dying Imperium of Man and its eternal master, the God-Emperor of Mankind. Seeing their only hope of salvation and their only chance of revenge, the princesses become the students of these warriors and learn the arts of war and demonology to battle these creatures, of whom the Marines know their true name: Chaos, and its four undying gods: Khorne, Nurgle, Slaanesh, and Tzeentch.



Anyways, these submissions I'm posting are only previews for a line of artworks and stories depicting what I just told above. To summarize: Disney princesses live happily ever after, Chaos comes and destroys their kingdoms and true loves; the Princesses, lost and forlorn, learn of the ancient Imperium of Man and become its servants, learning and training for the day they fight for revenge.

Now, the last of the chosen Princesses: Jasmine, whose home and love Aladdin was destroyed by the machinations of the Chaos god Tzeentch, master of knowledge and change. Like all the princesses, Jasmine wandered alone and forlornly, until she was approached by an ancient warrior and scholar. His crimson armor was gloriously intricate, with geometric symbols, glyphs, runes, and other arcane paraphernalia. An ancient symbol adorned his left shoulder: an eight-pointed serpentine star. This was the symbol of the arcane Thousand Sons Legion, who were sorcerers, psychics, and seers in addition to being superhuman warriors. This meant that the warrior in front of her was none other than the First Captain, Chief Librarian, and Magister Templi of the Corvidae cult. This was Ahzek Ahriman himself. He took her as his apprentice and taught her much arcane lore, magics, and other forms of ancient sorcery. Jasmine has become a highly capable sorceress and pupil of Ahriman.

The title Arcanum is Latin for "arcane" or "magic".


This submission is the intro to a series of artworks and stories based from Disney and Warhammer 40k.

The Disney princesses belong to Disney.
The Space Marines belong to Games Workshop.
This artwork and the corresponding stories are mine. Enjoy.

So I'm guessing this is before the Horus Heresy, correct?

No, this is my own 40k fiction. In this case, the Heresy did occur, but was not as severe. Only four Legions betrayed the Emperor, while less than half of the remaining five remained loyal.
Furthermore, Horus was cleansed and redeemed by the Emperor himself, though the Emperor was still greatly crippled enough to be interred in the Golden Throne.
And the Imperium's still in its current declining state, though not as bad as before.
And I put in Disney and Sailor Moon as being caught in the crossfire.

Ahhh, intresting backstory. I can understand Horus becoming good again, because wasn't it another primarch or space marine that eventually got in his head and turned him against the emperor?

It was, yes. Lorgar and his lackey Erebus. Actually it was Erebus who's the true instigator of the Heresy, since he was already devoted to Chaos long before the Word Bearers or even Lorgar turned to its worship.

Yep, the innocence of Disney princesses with the love and feminine style of Sailor Moon.............dominated by the dark universe of 40k, a universe of bias, sci-fi, blood, betrayal, and unending war.
