same... how do you burn a light.... 'tau earth cast engineer runs up to him' psssst... pulse gun.....
A shining light produces heat as a bi product and run off of wastage energy. Simply put, a light bulb generates heat despite its purpose to generate light. So simply put the metaphor of burning in the emperors light basically means space marines are gonna riddle you with Bolter rounds. God, you think people would get it.....
Come on, Eldar must have light bulbs as well. Otherwise what would they all sit round holding hands singing about peace and harmony. God damn space hippies.
I have never observed this 'singing about peace and harmony' not before I died and not since. In fact the only clan of the Lethanuul Exodites that sing are the Areskia Clan warriors-- they love singing about cleaving a foes head off as they commit the action
there are some craftworlds that sing for hope of peace but i have to say that number is diminishing quickly
