→Vulkan Lives
====Vulkan Lives====
His charred body was later recovered by the Ultramarines, who at first were unable to identify the corpse as anything more than a grotesque statue - all living matter having burned up on reentry. Over a series of days Vulkan's body began to regenerate, eventually returning to life and shocking the Ultramarines [[Apothecaries]] he had been entrusted to. Realizing who it was, the apothecaries summoned their Primarch, [[Roboute Guilliman]], who was at first furious that no one could give him any answers as to how or why Vulkan had suddenly fallen from the skies. To Guilliman's horror he found that Vulkan was broken mentally; , violent and incoherent, attacking anything and everything he could. {{Fn|6}}
Unknown to everyone, a bond of sorts had formed between Curze and Vulkan, the later being able to sense when the Night Haunter was nearby. Curze was indeed on Macragge, having been trapped aboard the [[Invincible Reason]] but eventually breaking out of the [[Dark Angels]] flagship and stealing a [[drop pod]] to the surface. Vulkan broke free of his bonds and pillaged Guilliman's private armory before setting off to hunt Curze. The two fought across an entire city, Vulkan finally realizing his regenerative abilities and using them to his advantage; by focusing his will, he could regenerate much quicker. At one point Curze shot Vulkan's head off, causing the primarch to fall from a cliff. Vulkan was back alive before he hit the ground.{{Fn|6a}}
