  • Trazyn likes to come off like an eccentric collector who tries to have fun in this galaxy of misery, but it becomes clear very fast that literally millions of years being a soulless robot has left him desperate to actually feel anything of worth. We see just how far this goes in this novel where the prospect of finding an intact and preserved Necrontyr sounds like the ultimate item to add to his collection. All throughout the book however, it's easy to see the cracks in his hollow enthusiam start to build over time until finally, he's at the cusp of aquiring his prize. At that point, he couldn't lie to himself anymore. He didn't want to find it just as another artifact to steal, he wanted to use the preserved Necrontyr to try to revive himself as he originally was. To actually be alive again. And then it turns out It was just a very long term plan set up by The Deceiver. You can practically feel the hope drain out of Trazyn in that moment.
