==History==
For reasons unknown, [[El'Jonson]] awoke in Mirror-Caliban in [[M42]] without his memories, after millennia of sleeping since the original [[Destruction of Caliban|Caliban's destruction]]. After encountering the old king on the river, whose waters played a song that he could hear, El'Jonson was approached by a [[Watcher in the Dark]] and he asked it where they were. The diminutive figure would simply reply '''Home''', before informing the Primarch of the king's condition and to beware of the shadows that dwell near him. El'Jonson then moved on and discovered a domed building, but once more the Watcher appeared and warned the Primarch against entering it, stating he was not yet strong enough to safely do so. When an annoyed El'Jonson asked what he should be doing instead to make sense of where he was, the Watcher told the Primarch to follow his nature. This led El'Jonson to follow a stench of corruption until the trees of MirriorMirror-Caliban{{Fn|1a}}, were replaced by those of the ruined world [[Camarth]]{{Fn|1b}}. It was there, that the Primarch encountered the [[Fallen Angel]] [[Zabriel]], which caused El'Jonson's memories to return to him.{{Fn|1c}}
The two would then work together to save the [[Imperial]] world from the [[Ten Thousand Eyes]] [[Chaos Warband|Warband]]{{Fn|1e}}. And as time went on, the [[Primarch]] learned how to freely enter Mirror-Caliban and use it to reach other worlds{{Fn|1i}}. By focusing on where he wants to go, [[El'Jonson]] causes the location to slowly appear within realm, until its forest finally fades away and the Primarch enters his destination{{Fn|1e}}. This ability is known as the '''Forestwalk''', which also allows El'Jonson to take others with him upon these journeys{{Fn|1e}}{{Fn|1i}} and the Primarch has used it to great effect in his battles against the Imperium's foes. To them, an apparition of the forest suddenly appears from nowhere and then fades away after the Primarch walks out of it{{Fn|2}}. Despite this ability, though, El'Jonson sometimes enters Mirror-Caliban after sensing something drawing his attention to the realm. Upon doing so, he is then teleported to another location{{Fn|1e}}, which El'Jonson discovers contains [[Fallen Angels]]{{Fn|1g}}. The Primarch does not know, however, if this feeling that leads him to his wayward sons is an instinct of his or if another force within Mirror-Caliban is pulling him towards the Fallen Angels.{{Fn|1f}}
The mysterious realm also once held the [[power sword]]{{Fn|1d}} [[Fealty]]{{Fn|1e}} and the [[Emperor's Shield (Relic)|Emperor's Shield]]{{Fn|1j}}, until both were discovered by [[El'Jonson]]{{Fn|1e}}{{Fn|1j}}. The latter was contained in the domed building the [[Watcher in the Dark|Watcher]] had warned him against entering and upon doing so anyways, El'Jonson fought a [[Daemon]] that could shape-shift into the forms of his brother [[Primarchs]]. This ability caused him to be overwhelmed by the creature, until El'Jonson found the Emperor's Shield within the building and used its powers to destroy the Daemon.{{Fn|1j}}
