==History==
His transformation began in the aftermath of the [[Great Rift]]'s creation, when the Mentors began to organize a mission, to travel to '''Elara's Veil''' in order to determine if the Imperial region still held firm{{Fn|1c}}. Incarius, as Vadhán was known then, volunteered for the task{{Fn|1d}} and was told by his [[Chapter Master]], [[Nisk Ran-Thawll]], that he would also act as emissary and observer to the Emperor's Spears and [[Celestial Lions]] Chapters, who defended the Veil. With his objectives given to him, Incarius took command of the [[Sword Frigate]] [[In Devout Abjuration]] and also the highly trained [[Chapter Serf|Helots]] '''Kartash Avik''', '''Tyberia Volos''' and '''[[Anuradha Daaz]]’’'’’’, who would aid him in his mission. With that, the Abjuration crossed the Great Rift into order to enter the '''Straits of Epona''', which was now the only entrance into Elara's Veil{{Fn|1c}}. The journey was fraught with danger, however, and by the time they reached the Veil, the Sword Frigate was heavily damaged and thousands of its crew lay dead. Worse still, the ship's crew knew the Abjuration would not survive a return trip across the Rift and they were effectively trapped in the Veil. As the Abjuration limped its way to the Emperor's Spears Homeworld, [[Nemeton]], however{{Fn|1e}}, Incarius disregarded this and vowed they would return to the Mentors after they completed his mission. Once they arrived at Nemeton, Incarius explained his mission to the Spears, but he was met with a less than warm welcome by [[Space Marine Captain|Lord]] [[Brêac]], of the Chapter's Third Warhost.{{Fn|1c}}
The Lord realized that Incarius' true mission, was to make sure the Spears and Lions were still loyal to the Imperium, but what truly angered him was the lack of reinforcements the Abjuration carried. Brêac explained that since the Great Rift's creation, the Worlds of Elara's Veil had been invaded by the [[Pure (Chaos Warband)|Pure]] and their [[Exilarchy]] hordes, which vastly outnumbered the Veil's Imperial forces. The Rift had caused the Veil to become isolated, and in desperation the Spears had sent several of their warships into the Straits of Epona, to ask the Imperium for aid. None had returned, nor had there been any sign of reinforcements, until the In Devout Abjuration had arrived. Incarius would then confirm to Brêac, that he knew of no records of the Spears' warships having made contact with the Imperium, which had been completely unaware that the Veil had been invaded. This, plus the Mentors wearing the colors of the [[Star Scorpions]], the Spears' now lost Brother Chapter, instantly caused Brêac to gravely dislike Incarius{{Fn|1c}}. Nevertheless, the Lieutenant Commander and his Helots would gain the Spears' approval to accompany Brêac aboard the [[Strike Cruiser]] ''[[Hex]]'', though many of the Third Warhost began to demean Incarius, by calling him a '''False Scorpion'''. He would ignore this though and focused on completing his mission, as the Hex left Nemeton to continue the battle against the Pure.{{Fn|1f}}
