In the lull period between Isstvan III and the [[Drop Site Massacre]], Kaesoron and the Legion attended the opening of the ''Maraviglia'', a concert composed by [[remembrancer]] [[Bequa Kynska]] and based on the music heard in the Laer temple. The resultant symphony (which degenerated into an orgy of deviant sex and mindless killing) enthralled Kaesoron and his fellows, fuelling their desire for sensual stimulation, just before things came to a head at the Drop Site Massacre. Screaming like a madman and leaping nimbly around the battlefield, Kaesoron once again confronted the Iron Hands' first captain. In a battle that left both men in agony (actually, in Kaesoron's case, a state of orgasmic ecstasy), Santar was killed...with Kaesoron thanking him. "That was exquisite" was the last thing Santar heard. During the battle, a stray explosion severely disfigured Kaesoron's face.{{Fn|1b}} After that, Kaesoron participated very little in the actual fighting on Isstvan V, instead defiling the corpses of the dead and taking bits of them as trophies to wear on his armor.{{Fn|1}}
After the Drop Site Massacre, Kaesoron became known as the '''Favoured Son'''.{{Fn|4a}} Alongside [[Lucius the Eternal|Lucius]], [[Fabius Bile]], and [[Marius Vairosean]] he captured Fulgrim in hopes of exorcising the [[Daemon]] they believed inhabited his body.{{fn|2}}{{Fn|4b}} While on their way to [[Iydris]], Julius was treated by Bile and received bone and horn implants as well as new mechanical eyes in order to repair his face.{{Fn|4b}} During the [[Battle of Iydris]], Julius commanded 3,000 warriors.{{Fn|4c}}
Following the [[Horus Heresy]], Kaesoron ascended to the status of [[Daemon Prince]] of Slaanesh {{Fn|3a}} and joined [[Eidolon]]'s [[Phoenix Conclave]].{{Fn|6}} In [[M41]] during the [[Purging of Contqual]], he attempted to turn the world [[Shardenus]] into a [[Daemon World]] by opening a [[Warp rift]] on the planet,{{Fn|3b}} but was stopped by [[Clan Raukaan]] of the Iron Hands.{{Fn|3c}}
