During the Blood Angels preparation to face an [[Devastation of Baal|invasion]] by [[Hive Fleet Leviathan]], [[Mephiston]] interrogated the Octocalvariae; to determine if his psychic vision of the [[Bloodthirster]] [[Ka'Bandha]] invading [[Baal]] as well, was true. The Xenos was known to be a prophet of incredible accuracy, but it only offered to help in exchange for its freedom. However, Mephiston did not require its cooperation and used his immense psychic powers to forcibly delve into the Octocalvariae's mind. Each of the Xenos' many eyes could see into the [[Realm of Chaos]] and Mephiston used them to locate Ka'Bandha and saw that the Bloodthirster was trying to emerge from the Warp and invade Baal. When the Bloodthirster saw Mephiston gazing upon it, Ka'Bandha gave a roar that severed the Blood Angel's connection to the Octocalvariae. The Xenos then laughed and said it had foreseen that Ka'Bandha would one day kill Mephiston and the Blood Angel's soul would join the Bloodthirster's hordes as they brought down the Imperium. Mephiston denied this, but before he left the Octocalvariae's cell, the Xenos claimed that the darkness within the Blood Angel would one day make them allies.{{Fn|1}}
