After a disastrous experiment on the ships [[Plasma Reactor]]s by [[Frater Thamatica]]{{Fn|2c}}, the ''Sisypheum'' is boarded by both the [[Emperors Children]] and [[Iron Warriors]]. This is the first time Sharrowkyn crosses swords with [[Lucius]] and bests him in combat cutting Lucius's face. He was unable to deliver a killing blow as the battle carried them away from each other. {{Fn|2d}} A reckoning then took place on the planet itself, when Nykona sought out Lucius and isolated him before swooping down to attack. Sharrowkyn bests him and plunges both of his gladii through his neck and chest piercing both hearts, killing him and leaving his cadaver on the planet.{{Fn|2e}}. Somehow [[Fabius Bile]] recovers Lucius's body and he awakes in the Apothecarion - the method of his return to life is not clear.{{Fn|2f}}
Nykona, still part of the ''Sisypheum's'' crew, later was part of the strike force that encountered the impostor [[Shadrak Meduson]], who was apparently [[Alpharius]] in disguise. During the battle, Sharrowkyn slew the skilled [[Alpha Legion]] combatant [[Ashur Maesan]] and saved the life of [[Cadmus Tyro]].{{Fn|3}}
