Chaos is eternal is a quote from one of the army books, and basically means like evil/crime (in real life), Chaos is eternal. In a metaphorical sense. Thousand Suns are just dust and ash in armor in reality. They are reanimated, and sent out to fight. I can't give you a reference without violating Games Workshop copyright policy. Read the codex if you want. :) Fr0 04:57, 26 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Removed Quotes from End of Article
At one point, IP 207.112.12.71 added this to the very end of the article.
Only Chaos is eternal.
IP 69.209.49.122 replaced this text with this under grounds that it was a (False Statement)
Now The Thousand Sons Marines are piles of dust and ash lying in their still-animate armor.
This seems very iffy. It wasn't here before. Doesn't seem like something an encyclopedia article would have. Can anyone verify? Ambush Commander 23:34, Dec 24, 2004 (UTC)
[edit] The Thousand Sons history: Ashes to ashes...
The Thousand Sons were turned to dust by the Rubric of Ahriman, a spell created by the special character of the same name, to preserve them from the depredations of the Chaos Gods. Tzeentch tricked him into it, and now they are all animated suits of armour with the souls and dust trapped inside. Interestingly, the Thousand Sons are the only Traitor Legion to have entered such a pact unwillingly, which considering the nature of Tzeentch is rather fitting.

- This article is about Tzeentch, not the Thousand Sons- they have their own article, and their relation to Tzeentch is described here suitably briefly. Second, articles about fiction should be written in an "out of universe" perspective- ie, they should not be written so that it sounds like these things actually happened, nor should it be directly copied from GW material.

[edit] Icon
Should an image of Tzeentch's icon, such as the one found here (http://uk.games-workshop.com/hordesofchaos/tzeentch/images/cult-icon.jpg), be added to this page? 66.24.236.62 16:57, 6 October 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Possible inspiration
Not going to add this to the article, obviously, since there's no reference source, but I thought this might interest the rest of you. 12th century Byzantine scholar, poet and grammarian who didn't suffer rivals gladly (violently attacking them). Wrote a dramatic sketch in iambic verse, in which the caprices of fortune and the wretched lot of the learned are described. Wrote the Book of Histories, usually called Chiliades ("thousands") from the arbitrary division by its editor into books each containing 1000 lines . . . ladies and gentlemen, I give you John. Just a pity there's no mention of the number nine, but I might look him up at the library to see if there is (maybe he had nine children or something). - Heavens To Betsy 20:43, 6 December 2006 (UTC)
