The ''Terminus Est'' and Typhon reappeared on [[Ynyx]] and upon the First Captain's request Mortarion himself agreed to journey on the vessel to [[Terra]] instead of the ''[[Endurance]]''. However this was part of Typhon's elaborate plot to corrupt the Death Guard, and in the subsequent trap within the [[Warp]] the ''Terminus Est'' along with the rest of the Death Guard fleet became daemonically corrupted.{{Fn|3}} When the ''Terminus Est'' was sighted as part of the armada that followed [[Horus]] to [[Terra]] it had changed. The Mark of Nurgle was upon it and all the other vessels of the Death Guard. While [[Mortarion]] led the assault on the Lion's Gate starport, Typhus controlled the Plaguefleet and it is suspected actually began the orbital bombardment of the Emperor’s Palace.{{Cite this}}
Following Horus’ death and the arrival of loyalist reinforcements the ''Terminus Est''’s formidable reserves of attack craft were expended as a rearguard while the Death Guard were evacuated back to their ships. Along with the rest of the [[Traitor Legions]] the Death Guard fled to the [[Eye of Terror]] and disappeared from Human knowledge for centuries.{{Cite this}}
