Solomon Voss was a [[remembrancer]] during the [[Great Crusade]] and some of the [[Horus Heresy]]. Solomon was famous for writing ''The Edge of Illumination'' and was said to be the "finest wordsmith of the age". He was executed by [[Rogal Dorn]] on one of [[Saturn]]'s moons, Titan. He was found on a ship that was sent into the sol system during the Horus Heresy, the ship was then bombarded, boarded by the [[Imperial Fists]] and all the crew killed. Upon being found in the bay of the ship he introduced himself as "the last remembrancer" <sup>1a</sup>.
He was taken to the most secure prison in the [[Imperium]] on Titan now reserved for traitors and turncoats where they are interrogated for they're secrets and then killed. When Solomon was brought into the fortress he was questioned by Rogal Dorn and [[Iacton Qruze]] <sup>1a</sup>.
Solomon told them that he and some other remembrancers, including Askarid Sha, had pulled some strings and gone to [[Isstvan V]] where they were picked up by [[Horus]]'s flagship the ''Vengeful Spirt'' and all taken in front of Horus himself where he ordered all but Solomon killed on the spot. Solomon was ordered by Horus to continue doing his job as a remembrancer, despite being ordered by the Imperium to stop, but for Horus's traitors instead <sup>1a</sup>.
During his time with Horus he was never harmed and continued his work but Solomon said that he went insane, at least for a time. When being questioned by Rogal Dorn he said "the future is dead, Rogal Dorn. It is ashes running through our hands". Dorn then flew into a rage and called him a liar and said that they would defeat Horus. To which Solomon said that they may but they could never rebuild the Imperium as they no longer have trust and told Dorn that if he had nothing to fear then why won't he let his works on what he saw while with Horus be published. Dorn then left the room <sup>1a</sup>.
Dorn later returned and with Iacton's sword executed Solomon and ordered his works burnt <sup>1a</sup>.
