Narek was able to escape Traoris by persuading a pair of his fellow Word Bearers to teleport him through the [[Warp]], but upon arrival on their destination world, [[Macragge]], Narek's fellows revealed that they only aided him so that they could wreak havoc on the [[Ultramarines]] and attempted to kill him as a traitor to the legion, forcing Narek to kill them and go to ground. Narek was ultimately able to track down and capture Grammaticus, who had come to Macragge with the fulgurite as part of his own mission, but was wounded by Grammaticus's comrade [[Damon Prytanis]] and later incapacitated by [[Konrad Curze]], who was loose on the planet. Discovered by the Ultramarines near [[Vulkan]]'s corpse, Narek was imprisoned by for the primarch's murder.{{Fn|2}}
After a period of imprisonment, Narek was secretly rescued and smuggled off Macragge by [[Kaspian Hecht]], an agent of [[Malcador the Sigillite]] and a powerful psyker who attempted to overwrite Narek's mind. Fighting back, Narek managed to kill Hecht but was left with parts of Hecht's psyche embedded in his own, leaving him with gaps in his memory and confused about his identity. Taking on Hecht's armour and identity, Narek commandeered a ship and made it to the space station [[Rampart]], where he joined up with [[the Sixty-Six]], refugee [[Salamanders]] attempting to ferry Vulkan's body back to [[Nocturne]] through the [[Ruinstorm]]. Narek aided the Salamanders during their perilous voyage but was discovered once his true identity resurfaced, forcing him to fight off both former allies and Word Bearers sent to hunt him before escaping to the surface of Nocturne.{{Fn|3}}
On Nocturne, Narek was confronted by [[Eldrad Ulthran]] who recruited the Word Bearer in his quest to eliminate the Cabal. Narek helped Ulthran kill several Cabal agents such as [[Gahet]], [[Slau Dha]], and [[Damon Prytanis]]. Afterwards, Eldrad allowed Narek to be on his way with a piece of the fulgurite. Narek was next seen rendezvous' with the Word Bearers, rejoining the legion while hiding his quest to kill Lorgar.{{Fn|4}}
