After his discovery by the [[Emperor]], Lorgar brought the planet into the [[Imperium]], granting it access to advanced technology and society. Under Lorgar's brief rule the planet prospered but when the [[Emperor]] took Lorgar away, the planet plummeted back to a feudal state. Imperial traffic avoided Colchis not only for its lack of orbital infrastructure but also due to rumours that the area was unreliable after the disappearance of the 2,188th Expeditionary Fleet.{{Fn|2}}
When the [[Ultramarines]] returned to Colchis to purge it after the [[Horus Heresy]] they found a collapsed world. All of the industries were destroyed and people barely clung on to life. The Inquisition ordered the cleansing by the use of [[cyclonic torpedoes]], disrupting Colchis's delicate geological structure, and thereby triggering a catastrophic explosion that annihilated the planet.{{Fn|1}} At the time the Mark of Calth had reached 219,479.25.03 (approximately 25 years).{{fn|5}}
