The real Thiel eventually returned to [[Macragge]] and had an audience with Guilliman in the same room where the [[Alpha Legion]] imposters tried to kill him. Guilliman told Thiel that the blade he stole is now his, he then questioned Thiel about the [[Red-marked]] and how they operated. After Thiel explained, Guilliman told him that he'd have the men he needed for the Red-marked, and his support. He then revealed to Thiel that he received Thiel's armorarmour, which included his tactical argot. Guilliman told Thiel how the legions old thinking was outdated, and they needed to be more flexible like the Red-marked, and that he is working on [[Codex Astartes|The Codex]] to make them more tactical{{Fn|9}}
Thiel led a squad of red-marked to [[Iax]] alongside new Ultramarines recruits to investigate a [[Promethium]] rig that had gone silent. Upon approaching the rig their Thunderhawk was shot down, and upon entering the facility they discovered that it was abandoned. After fighting through security [[Servitor]]s, the group came across a single comatose survivor, who quickly died despite the best efforts of the Ultramarines [[Apothecary]]. Thiel and his squad continued to search the rig, coming across a [[Tech-Priest]] who explained that the crew went mad and flooded the entire station. Thiel was then assailed by a traitorous Space Marine wielding sorcerous powers. Thiel was overpowered, but saved by his squad. The traitor identified himself as [[Alpharius]] and said the word "Nightfane" before he died. Thiel and his forces decided that Iax had been infiltrated by traitors.{{Fn|7}}
