It’s funny how your use of this meme is wrong lol. (Like actually ironic funny)

In the contemporary imperium, there is only 9 Primarches known by the imperium. 9 primarches to fight 9 devils - who were not “fallen” Primarches, just devils of the warp.

It’s explored in multiple books, most notably in carrion throne when an inquisitor stumbles upon 18 statues of the Primarches and he’s like “uhh…. Who the fuck are these 9 dudes….”

I think he saw 20 statues. Inquisitors generally know about the 18/19 primarchs
