*"Of the original 20 Primarchs only 9 survived the Horus Heresy. The remainder were either killed in the fighting (like Horus) or fled with their [Legions] into the [[Eye of Terror]]. The survivors helped [to rebuild] the Imperium."<sup>3</sup>
**It is currently accepted that 3 Primarchs died during the Heresy ([[Ferrus Manus]], [[Sanguinius]], and [[Horus]]) and 6 are known to have fled into the Eye of Terror ([[Fulgrim]], [[Perturabo]], [[Angron]], [[Mortarion]], [[Magnus]], and [[Lorgar]]). The fates of the other 11 are open to multiple interpretations.
**Two traitors, [[Konrad Curze]] and [[Alpharius]], did not flee into the Eye of Terror and were killed later on. 7 loyal Primarchs seem to have survived. It is possible that Kurze Curze and Alpharius were counted as part of the 9 survivors.
