One of several edits concerning "Eye of Night". Thanks, Gavin Thorpe...
Centuries later, Inquisitor [[Katarinya Greyfax]] and a squad of [[Grey Knights]] sent by [[Roboute Guilliman]] to recover the Eye of Night. The only trace of the location was remains of the Ecclesiarchy planet that Horst used as his base, which had his psychic spore. After searching through one of the small fragments of the planet remaining, they found Horst bound to the skeleton within the Paladin's armor.{{fn|2a}} He was in a state between life and death, and he said that he knew that Moriana would know where to find the Eye of Night. The two inquisitors entered the Eye of Terror searching for Moriana, who revealed that Horst knew the location but that he was suffering from amnesia.{{fn|2b}} She gave them a daemonic guide who led them to a daemon prince who held Horst's body and the Eye of Night. Greyfax killed the daemon, and Horst in the process, and recovered the Eye of Night from within its body.{{fn|2c}}
==Canon Conflict==
On page 95, the [[Battlefleet Gothic Rulebook]] states:
"Like a rations pack crushed in your fist, Savaven just crumpled in on herself, then broke up into thousands of
fragments. There’s just an asteroid field there now, really dense, impossible to navigate." {{fn|1}}
Other accounts of the [[Planet Killer]] describe similar levels of destruction.
[[Eye of Night (Audio Drama)]] completely contradicts this account, postulating an intact Savaven on which Horst/Belacus could take refuge.
In addition, Horst's first name is given as "Gideon" in the novel [[Execution Hour]]. {{fn|3}}
