The Emperor of Mankind looks over the Ogryn custodes that were created. The sheer amount of training and strength building that was needed to just have the chance of surviving the implants to make a custode wasn’t needed with an ogryn. Most ogryns stood around 8 to 9 feet tall, being taller then space marines and the same size as custodes. The ogryn custodes tower over them even his tallest of his sons would have to look up to them. At 16 feet tall the ogryn custodes are giants and are much more powerful then any pure human base custodes or space marine. The only problem is that the ogryns are still dumb, so dumb that the ones fighting for the forces of chaos, believe that what they’re doing is for their god the emperor.
It's just one of his many projects he's been doing around the palace. Even with his recovery to his full health, the emperor hasn't left his palace. The only thing he's been doing is governing his decaying empire trying to undo the eons of damage. He is now sitting at all the meetings of the High Lords of Terra, being very displeased with how things have been running without him at the wheel.
Since the dark days of the Horus Heresy, the number of seats on the Senatorum Imperialis has largely remained the same, fluctuating during various points of crisis before eventually returning to its original number of 12. Each seat is filled by a leader from one of the most powerful adepta and other organizations of the Imperium. A complex web of tradition, skulduggery, promises of support, threats of retaliation and considerations of mutual interest binds them together and determines who holds office and who does not.
Now that the Emperor is back he made changes to how things are done. Like he doesn't find people not praying to him or being apart of the Imperial Creed, he finds it insulting when people are force to worship him. And when the Ecclesiarch protested, the Emperor just grab him and had the rest of the high lords follow him out of the room. They follow him right to a balcony that overlooks the hive city below them. Where the Emperor who had been holding the Ecclesiarch in the air with one hand toss him over the side. He then turned to the remaining high lords, telling them that anyone who doesn't follow his word goes over the side.
Word also spread about how the emperor who had loved mankind for so many countless eons, has lost his faith in mankind. Which the emperor made it known that he has all but given up on mankind and openly talks to himself about why he had even bothered to save them. He is only doing what he's doing in trying to improve the empire, in the hopes that his daughter would comeback to him.
News of the emperor daughter being an abhuman with wings and a horn on her head with her skin being orange quickly spread. And what happen to her when one of the black ships found her, leading to her being fed to her father which awakened him. The organizations whose members were part of the crew that had tortured and crippled the emperors daughter have all been hit hard knowing that its because of members of their group that the emperor had lost his faith in mankind. They have all been working hard in regaining their honor in the eyes of the emperor and all members are have committed themselves in following any and all the emperors wishes.
They also been on the lookout for anyone that is like the emperors daughter. As the rumors has it that she came from another universe free of chaos where he mother rules. The emperor stays in the palace gazing at the mirror that connected to his wife's world. They're hoping if they find someone from that universe who ended up in their like the princess, the portal who reopen.

"He is really trying," Celestia said to her counterpart.
"But as I said it doesn't matter if I forgive him. The only one that matters is Sunset and she is far from ever forgiving or trusting any human," her counterpart said. (1)
