Changes

In the aftermath of the [[Drop Site Massacre]], Eidolon proved unable to deal with the ever-changing tempers of his Primarch as well as other senior members of the Legion did; his under-estimation of Fulgrim's newly highly capricious nature led to a terminal misstep when he chose to ask ''why'' Fulgrim proposed a plan of action, and wasn't able to verbally react quickly enough to soothe Fulgrim's resultant rage; indeed, what words he did manage to say in his defence inadvertently provoked his master further. In a blistering fury brought on by the belief that Eidolon was mocking him and planning to betray him, Fulgrim swiftly drew the [[anathame]] and slew his once-favourite Lord Commander. Eidolon's severed head was then passed over the victory wine of the legion's inner circle, the blood dripping from it being allowed to mix with the alcohol.{{Fn|3}} However with the approval of [[Fulgrim]] himself{{Fn|4a}}, [[Fabius]] managed to reattach Eidolon's severed head to his body and revive him.{{Fn|4b}}. He later accompanied Fulgrim to [[Iydris]], leading the ritual that saw his Primarch ascend to [[Daemonhood]].{{Fn|4c}}

Exasperated with his clumsy and unresponsive body, Eidolon set out to find a cure. Fabius Bile advised him to find one of a dozen legionaries sent far away long ago, when the legion was still afflicted by the Blight, to extract an untainted [[Gene-seed|progenoid gland]]. Eventually, the ''[[Proudheart]]'' stumbled upon a small fortress-monastery on a distant moon, guarded by some [[Iron Hands]], [[Salamanders]], and most importantly, [[Space Marine Sergeant|Sergeant ]] [[Avram Rakomon]] of the Emperor's Children. During the battle that ensued the lord commander discovered, and quickly grew accustomed to his newly enhanced strength, reflexes, and senses. After he had slain the loyalist sergeant with contemptuous ease, he decided to embrace the boons bestowed upon him by the [[Slaanesh|Dark Prince]] rather than attempt to return to his previous mundane perfection.{{Fn|16}}.
