As a member of the Knights-Errant, Promus was tasked with Malcador to select Candidates for the [[Grey Knights|Titan Project]], killing those who were seen as too mentally weak.{{Fn|2}} Promus went on to lead a mission at the orders of Malcador to recover the [[Shards of Magnus]]. Accompanied by [[Yasu Nagasena]] and [[Space Wolves]] led by [[Bodvar Bjarki]], their mission brought them to [[Kamiti Sona]], [[Aghoru]], and finally [[Nikaea]] against the [[Thousand Sons]] Cabal of [[Ahriman]].{{Fn|2a}} On Nikaea was struck down trying to fight a shard of [[Magnus]] on [[Nikaea]], blasted by Magnus's power, but [[Yasu Nagasena]] stepped in to protect him from a warm of [[daemons]]. After the shards of Magnus merged and left for the [[Planet of Sorcerers]], Promus was confronted by Bjarki who learned of his past murders of loyalist Legionaries from [[Fateweaver|Fatewoven]]. Promus admitted the daemon's claims were true to Bjarki but refused to explain the secrets he was bound to keep. On the orders of Bjarki [[Svafnir Rackwulf]] ended his life in response. His friend [[Lemuel Gaumon]] then took his name as his own.{{fn|2a}}
