→Shenglong
===Cybele===
The Bellus and Arkio (still untransformed) travelled to the burial world [[Cybele]], which was under assault by a force of [[Word Bearers]] [[Chaos Space Marines]] led by the [[Dark Apostle]] [[Iskavan|Iskavan the Hated]], to relieve the Blood Angels forces guarding the world. Arkio led an infiltration mission to the enemy-held space port and turned its missiles on the [[Chaos]] [[Grand Cruiser]] [[Orge Lord]] in orbit, destroying it and sending Chaos forces reeling. He later single-handedly saved Sachiel from a daemon, then rallied the men and became the figurehead which turned the tide against the Word Bearers.
===ShenglongShenlong===
They pursued the apparently fleeing [[Word Bearers]] to their base on [[Shenlong]], against [[Chapter Master]] [[Dante]]'s orders to remain on [[Cybele]]. En route there, aboard the battleship ''[[Bellus]]'', Arkio was presented with the [[Spear of Telesto]] as a reward for his bravery. The spear did not react to the daemonic seed planted in Arkio (due to Stele having first calmed it and stabilised the mutation beforehand), and instead flared with a white light that enveloped Arkio, turning him into the likeness of Sanguinius himself for a second before the vision faded.
