→Resurrection
Several decades later, Eisenhorn returned to Cinchare and offered Pontius a trade: he would have Magos Bure construct a mechanical body for Pontius to inhabit, in exchange for any information that he might provide on [[Daemonhost]]s; Eisenhorn knew that he was badly outclassed by the [[Radical]] Inquisitor [[Quixos]], whose most powerful weapons were the daemonhosts [[Cherubael]] and [[Prophaniti]]. Although Eisenhorn swore that Pontius would never be released from imprisonment, Pontius was so excited at the prospect of having a body to inhabit that he instantly agreed.{{Fn|2}}
As he was leaving Cinchare to confront Quixos, Eisenhorn was troubled by the realization that, for all of Pontius's evil, Eisenhorn had enjoyed their conversations, and even more troubled by the thought that, had Pontius not turned except for his allegiance to Chaos, he was the sort of man that Eisenhorn would happily gladly have called him a friend.{{Fn|2}}
