===The Last Council===
In [[The Last Council (Short Story)]], [[Horus]], [[Alpharius]], and [[Jaghatai Khan]] attempt to stop [[Malcador the Sigillite]] from destroying one of the Lost Primarchs' statues outside the [[Imperial Palace]]. This Lost Primarch's actions had led to his death and disgrace during the Great Crusade, and because of this, Malcador claimed he was no longer worthy of having a statue that bore his face. Horus and his brothers disagreed and stated that even in death, the Lost Primarch deserved to be remembered for the glory he had earned the Imperium. Horus then claimed that Malcador had overstepped his authority and was trying to amend the Imperium's early history, so that future generations would never know of the Lost Primarch. Despite their arguments Malcador refused to listen, and angrily used his psychic powers to attack Horus, when he began to utter the name of the dead Lost Primarch. While being psychically strangled by Malcador, Horus attempted to speak, but only managed to say "M..Mal...al". It is unknown if this is the name of the Lost Primarch, or if Horus was attempting to say the name of Malcador instead.{{Fn|40}}
===The Passing of Angels===
In [[The Passing of Angels (Short Story)]], [[Sanguinius]] is tasked to destroy a civilization and condemn it to oblivion. The reason for such a large scale act of censorship was the use of an ancient weapon from the [[Old Night]]. This sort of gravity mine completely erased a bubble of existence in a radius of 5 km from the planet, swallowing all civilians and soldiers in it. The [[Emperor]]’s retaliation for the employment of weapons from the Old Night was absolute. The [[Blood Angels]] were tasked to wipe out the culture of this human civilization (whose name is censored as "H____" throughout the whole story), its name forgotten and never mentioned again. Moreover the surviving inhabitants were split and sent to other planets, while their home-planet was given to other colonists. This course of actions and destiny seems to echo what happened to the two unknown legions.{{Fn|42}}
