After the fall of [[Bhab Bastion]], Zephon rallied with remaining loyalist officers such as [[Fafnir Rann]], [[Namahi]], [[Azkaellon]], [[Maximus Thane]], [[Satel Aimery]] in the final defense of the Inner Palace under the command of [[Archamus II|Archamus]]. During the battle, Zephon succumbed to his rage and tore apart the bodies of Traitors.{{Fn|7}} Rann and Zephon then led a desperate defense deep within the [[Sanctum Imperialis]], which traitors were able to pour into as the [[Emperor]], [[Dorn]], and [[Sanguinius]] boarded the''[[Vengeful Spirit]]''.{{Fn|8}}
Upon sensing the death of Sanguinius at the hands of Horus, the Blood Angels Legion fell into the madness of the [[Black Rage]]. Zephon was wracked by visions of the death of his Primarch, but was able to keep most of his sanity. Why is not entirely clear, but Zephon speculates it is because his condition left him more numb to the pain and despair. Zephon ultimately survived then aided Fafnir Rann and other Imperials against both traitors and his own berserk brothers.{{Fn|9a}} After the Imperial victory at Terra, he is seen taking part in a funeral service for Sanguinius alongside [[Raldoron]], [[Azkaellon]], and perhaps 500 other surviving Blood Angels.{{Fn|9b}} After the Heresy, and Zephon went on to become the first [[Chapter Master]] of the [[Charnel Guard]].{{Fn|5e}} In his elder days as the Heresy went from fact to myth, he would listen to the tales of the final struggle on Terra and only interject if they claimed that Sanguinius waited during the Battle for the Sanctum Imperialis. He would correct them by saying that Sanguinius did not stand with his back to the Gate and watch as the [[Ka'Bandha|Bane of the Ninth Bloodline]] attacked the Royal Ascension. Zephon's correction would often make the listeners interested in hearing his first-hand account of the event but he would defer to others set the record straight.{{Fn|5d}}
