This belief would come to be understood finally during the [[Devastation of Baal]], when Dante led the Blood Angels and their successor chapter's in a final stand against [[Hive Fleet Leviathan]]. During the battle Dante managed to slay the [[Swarmlord]] but was badly wounded in the process. As he lay dying, he saw a vision of the [[Sanguinor]] and [[Sanguinius]] himself. Relieved that his duty was finally over, Dante was about to pass into death when Sanguinius told him to live and that his time was not yet done. Distressed, Dante begged Sanguinius to let him die and take his soul with him, but was suddenly revived on the battlefield.{{Fn|8b}} Fortunately for the Chapter Master, Baal was saved by [[Roboute Guilliman]] and the [[Indomitus Crusade]], {{Fn|7}} who commended him for saving half the galaxy from the terror of the Hive Fleet {{Fn|8b}}
