Years passed after the Horus Heresy. Russ, at a great feast with his Legion in attendance, stood and said: "In the end I will return. For the final battle. For the Wolf Time." He then left the Fang, along with his personal retinue, and embarked into the Eye of Terror. The tale of his disappearance is retold every thousand years by [[Bjorn the Fell-Handed]], the oldest [[dreadnought]] still in service. He is said to have served with Russ ten thousand years before. Every once in a while, the Space Wolves embark on what is called the Great Hunt to search the galaxy for their missing leader. Though they have searched far and wide, they still haven't found any sign of their Primarch. Apparently The Wolf Primarch Arch-nemesis, Magnus The Crimson king knows the wolf kings whereabouts, but keeps it secret. <sup>8</sup>:

*"You strive for victory. That is obvious. What may be less obvious is the nature of victory. There are circumstances in which you can destroy the enemy utterly, without loss to your own forces, and yet the victory may be his. In all situations, you must first decide on the nature of victory, and then take steps to secure it. Avoid the instinct of fight first and think later." (''Meditations, Book VI'')
