In Episode 7, the Emperor grows suspicious and demands to see his elite personal bodyguards—the Adeptus Custodes (or "Companions")—whom he hasn't laid eyes on in millennia. 🍌 The Iconic Reveal
In the broader lore of the series, Captain-General "Kitten" has installed a text-to-speech device on the Golden Throne. This allows the skeletal, psychic God-Emperor of Mankind to finally communicate after 10,000 years of silence.
While wildly absurd, this episode is actually a brilliant nod to actual, classic Warhammer history. In the original first-edition Rogue Trader lore from the late 1980s, official artwork and text stated that the Custodes had indeed abandoned their armor and wore only capes and loincloths out of mourning and shame for failing the Emperor.
