*{{Main|Destruction of Caliban}}
When Jonson returned from the [[Horus Heresy]], a withering salvo of fire knocked ships out of orbit. Over many decades Luther had corrupted the remaining legion on Caliban. Jonson was furious and moved his ships back into orbit, bombarding the planet. Eventually, Jonson ordered the invasion and the loyal Dark Angels landed across the planet. The corrupt Dark Angels took hold in the Order's monastery, and Luther and Jonson faced off. The ancient home was reduced to rubble and the planet was flattened.
Eventually, due to the bombardment, the planet's crust began to shift and crack. Around the planet, the warp shifted as the dark powers realised they had failed again and a [[warp]] storm spewed forth around the planet. A swirling vortex of warp power was created around Caliban and it eventually broke apart, being pulled into the [[warp]]. Only an [[The Rock|asteroid]] with the ruins of the [[Fortress Monastery]] remained. [[Luther]] was said to be found, but Jonson was nowhere to be seen. It is said that he was taken by the [[Watchers in the Dark]].{{Fn|1}}
