===Post-Heresy===
Eidolon survived the retreat from [[Terra]] and made it to the [[Eye of Terror]], where he was one of the major Emperor's Children commanders from their new base on [[Harmony]] and the subsequent [[Battle of Harmony|raid by the newly formed Black Legion]].{{Fn|9b}} A few centuries after [[the Shattering]] in 764.M34, Eidolon had re-established the Emperor's Children base at [[Canticle City]] on [[Harmony]], which had been mostly destroyed during the [[Legion Wars]]. Here he styled himself 'Lord Commander Primus' and established the [[Phoenix Conclave]]. According to Eidolon himself, he had a dream in which [[Fulgrim]] appeared to him and told him to gather those in the Legion that still sought perfection. To that end, he began attempting to reunify the Emperor's Children and thinks by spreading enough entropy, true perfection may be born from the ashes. However, [[Fabius Bile]] suspects Eidolon's story of Fulgrim appearing to him is a lie.{{Fn|9b}} Nonetheless, he is said to currently rule one of the largest and most disciplined forces of Emperor's Children and is in an alliance with [[Abaddon the Despoiler]].{{Fn|9a}}
Rumours claim that Eidolon is responsible for hundreds, if not thousands, of gruesome raids on [[Imperial]] worlds in the past ten thousand years, and have suggested he may have served as lieutenant to [[Abaddon the Despoiler]], consort to [[Queen Sylelle]] and champion of the [[Keeper of Secrets]] [[N'Kari]]. No [[Inquisitor]] has yet succeeded in locating the source of these rumours, but without indisputable evidence, the [[Inquisition]] will not declare Eidolon deceased.{{Fn|1}}
