he Emperor Steps Into the Arena… and Reality Breaks
So here we have a classic Record of Ragnarok setup—Brunhilda, the valkyrie, is calling upon humanity’s greatest champion to fight against the gods. And who does she summon? Not some mere warrior, not even a demi-god, but THE Emperor of Mankind himself. The God-Emperor, the golden-clad, psychic powerhouse who makes gods tremble just by existing. He stands there, radiating pure, unfiltered divine wrath, because a mere mortal (Brunhilda) just commanded him. Yeah, she done goofed.
Gods of Ragnarok: Absolute Panic Mode Activated
The meme absolutely nails the reaction of the gods, and it’s pure comedy gold. The bottom half of the image is a collection of horrified expressions—meme staples like the shocked cat, a bewildered dog, and what appears to be a grizzled WWI veteran who has seen things no mortal should. And honestly? That’s a reasonable reaction. They thought they were about to fight a strong human, maybe someone like Genghis Khan or Musashi. Instead, they got a man who waged war against actual gods and won. This is like challenging a lion to a fistfight and realizing it brought a tank.
The Emperor’s Immediate Solution: Burn the Heretics
Of course, the Emperor is not about to just follow orders from some random valkyrie. The text sums it up perfectly: murders Brunhilda the heretic for commanding him. Yep, that tracks. But why stop there? also murders everyone else for witnessing the heresy. Because if there’s one thing the Emperor excels at (besides genocide and maintaining the worst father-son relationships in history), it’s enforcing his own version of reality. The gods of Ragnarok never stood a chance—not in a fair fight, and certainly not in the trial by exterminatus they just walked into.
