Changes

With preparations for the assault completed, Raldaron reported to Sanguinius on the state of their intelligence, showing that all six settlements reported by the colonial census agency vanished without even ruins remaining, and only a single structure, the [[Cathedral of the Mark]], present. With Sanguinius admitted that Horus had been distant lately and that it was possible he might have sent Sanguinius to Signus Prime to prevent him from stopping a potential rebellion, Raldaron was left shaken, wondering who would join the Warmaster if it came to schism.{{fn|1g}} After Sanguinius was injured by Ka'Bandha, Raldoron ordered the Blood Angels to fall back to the ''Red Tear''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s landing site. However, the Blood Angels were being driven to a killing rage by the Chaotic influence. [[Mkani Kano]], Raldoron's adjutant in the First Company and a former [[Librarian]], revealed that he had gathered some of his brothers in secret, as they had been having visions of a [[Red Angel]]. He also revealed that one of the survivors found by Captain [[Dar Nakir]] and Meros, [[Tyllian Niobe]], was a [[Pariah]], able to remove psychic influence.{{Fn|1g}} Taking Meros and [[Veteran Sergeant]] [[Orexis]]' squad, Raldoron lead a kill-team to remove Kyriss and Ka'Bandha and stop the Blood Angels from falling to the Red Thirst, picking Meros' brothers in Squad [[Cassiel]] and [[Warden]] [[Yason Annellus]].{{Fn|1h}} While on the way, they found Helik Redknife's squad, killed by Blood Angels.{{Fn|1i}} Raldoron and the others made their way to Ka'Bandha and Kyriss' sanctum, where they discovered what was fueling the ragefire: the tortured soul of [[Tagas]], Captain of the 111th Company and one of Raldoron's closest brothers, believed killed on Murder.{{Fn|1j}} Raldoron managed to kill Harox, but was nearly killed by Ka'Bandha, when Sanguinius returned, having been revived by the Librarians.{{Fn|1k}} When Kyriss proposed that Sangiunius take the Ragefire into himself, Raldoron urged his Primarch not to do so, but Meros allowed himself to be taken instead, temporarily freeing the Blood Angels of the Red Thirst.{{Fn|1l}} Following the battle, Captain Amit revealed to Raldoron that he had been the one who killed the Space Wolves, but Azkaellon, who had already lied to the Primarch saying that they were killed by the daemons, swore them both to secrecy, as Sanguinius' nobility would compel him to take full blame from [[Leman Russ (Primarch)|Leman Russ]], and with the Imperium facing civil war, the Adeptus Astartes needed unity.{{Fn|1m}}

Following the [[Horus Heresy]], Raldoron succeeded Sanguinius as the new Master of the Blood Angels (no longer a Legion, but now a Chapter) and brought his mortal remains back to the [[Fortress-Monastery]] of [[Baal]] after the [[Battle of Terra]].{{Fn|6}}
