start to add more detailed information on his role in the Fall of Cadia book
In 997.M41{{Fn|1a}} after being made Captain of the 2nd, Garadon cultivated alliances and ties with many famous Space Marines such as [[Cato Sicarius]] of the [[Ultramarines]], [[Colvane Brasch]] of the [[Invaders]], [[Erasmus Tycho]] of the [[Blood Angels]], and [[Draco]] of the [[Black Templars]].{{Fn|6}}
In 999.M41 After the [[Siege of Hydra Cordatus]] the 3rd Company was slain to a man. Garadon received permission to leave the 2nd Company and rebuild the 3rd. Many veterans of the [[Crusade of Thunder]] arrived to be transferred into the rebuilt formation under Garadon.{{Fn|1a}} Garadon was left on the [[Phalanx]] to rebuild the Company while [[Lysander ]] and [[Vorn Hagan]] left with 5 Companies for a [[Crusade]], and 3 others were deployed to the [[Segmentum Obscurus]], leaving 30 members of the first company and the brand new third company on the [[Phalanx]]. However When the [[13th Black Crusade]] started [[Warsmith]] [[Shon'tu]] and [[Daemon Prince]] [[Be'lakor]] [[Battle of the Phalanx|assaulted]] the Phalanx in its vulnerable state, leaving entering it via a warp. Garadon took command, rallying the crew and his battle brothers. When the ship was infected with corruption he withdrew his forces from those sections and ordered the [[Phalanx]]'s weapons to shoot those sections. Once the infected sections were gone and the machine virus no longer had a small force of Imperial Fists to defend hold on the ship Garadon set it on a blind heading into the vessel[[Immaterium]].{{Fn|1a}} UltimatelyThis made the [[Daemon]]'s that had invaded stronger, so Garadongathered the remaineder of his forces in the Chamber of Storms to make a stand. When [[Be's small force was saved by lakor]] joined the fight the [[Legion of the Damned]]arrived to help the [[Imperial Fists]], and [[Be'lakor]] was forced to retreat with his forces in the middle of a fight with Garadon. When the legion didn't leave after the battle Garadon then arrived over thought there was still something for the [[Phalanx]] to do before returning to Terra. As soon as they set their course for Terra the [[Librarian]]'s received a distress Hymnal from [[Cadia]]. Garadon overruled [[Trevaux]] and fought alongside Imperial defenders against [[Abaddon Furan]]'s objections to them responding and had the DespoilerPhalanx set out for [[Cadia]].{{Fn|22a}}
When the [[Age of the Dark Imperium]] began, Tor Garadon led the [[Phalanx]] to Terra where he deployed a Company of Imperial Fists to help establish calm on the Throneworld following the [[Sack of the Lion's Gate]]. While on Terra he worked closely with Custodes under [[Valerian]] against [[Chaos Cult]]s on Terra and later helped battle the [[Minotaurs]] following their participation in the [[Hexarchy]]'s coup.{{Fn|7}} He later crossed the [[Rubicon Primaris]] and become a [[Primaris Space Marine]].{{Fn|3}} Alongside Lysander he is now one of the last surviving Fists from before the formation of the [[Great Rift]]. Since the [[Indomitus Crusade]] began he nearly came to blows with [[Iron Hands]] [[Master of the Forge]] [[Feirros]] during the [[Battle of Xalladin]].{{Fn|4}}
