The remnants of the assault force reached orbit leaving the Dark Angels trapped below, but they
could spare no time to exact any revenge, for the [[Promethean Class Cruiser]] ''[[Invidious]]'' had returned, called back from patrol by Knight-Praetor Mordred, and the ''Conqueror's Pride'' was no match for the ancient Terran warship in open battle. Bloodied in body and pride, the Sons of Horus fled the Advex-Mors system. They had come seeking both weapons for Horus' desperate rebellion and to break the will of one of the unquestionably loyal Legions but could claim little more than a pyrrhic victory.{{Fn|1a}} However, the potency of the captured waepons could turn the Horus Heresy in the Traitors' favorfavour.{{Fn|2}}
