Plots get recycled a lot more than you probably realise. The concept of chaos afflicting a land once a royal bloodline is severed is a very old one, and greatly pre-dates WH40K.

Everything you see in computergames was at one point binarily cloned by well-read individuals, from any book they liked.
I remember seeing a parody about LotR sometime on the net, that was greatly appalled that the Lord of the Rings trilogy so shamelessly stole the concept of Orcs from Blizzard's Warcraft franchise  |

I remember reading a series of books caled the sword of shanara trilogy. That was a shameless rip off of lotr exept with races changed and the ring replaced with the one sword.
