→Forming the Black Legion
Gathering allies around himself, Abaddon moved on the Canticle City on the [[Daemon World]] of [[Harmony]]. During the [[Battle of Harmony|vicious battle]] that followed, Abaddon took up the [[Talon of Horus]] and boarded the Emperor's Children [[Cruiser]] ''Fleshmarket'' which was commanded by Fabius Bile. Inside, they found horribly deformed mutated adolescent clones of all twenty [[Primarch]]s. After putting an end to these monstrosities, Abaddon and his forces next met the clone of Horus himself. After shattering [[Worldbreaker]] with the Talon of Horus, Abaddon impaled the clone of his gene-father. With his dying breath, Horus remembered Abaddon as his son, to which Abaddon replied he was not his son any longer.{{Fn|6}}
Abaddon's forces subsequently purged the Emperor's Children from Harmony and proclaimed himself as the successor of Horus. He would begin a new war - – a [[Long War]]. After his victory, Abaddon proceeded to purge the Black Legion of traitorous and self-serving elements, such as the [[Word Bearers]] champion [[Rynax the Unspoken]], the [[Nurgle]] [[Chaos Lord]] [[Purgor the Putrescent]], and the [[Slaaneshi]] [[Sorcerer]] [[Hexagalimere]]. Making bloody examples of these Renegades, Abaddon was able to cement his hold on power over the Legion.{{Fn|8a}}
