Li Qinwu captured a Dark Eldar pirate ship, rescued its human prisoners, and brought two stranded Astartes into his fleet while gaining access to valuable T'au research. He returned to gene-seed work and began forming the Broken-winged Angels, leaving Little Sheep to prepare for augmentation.

• Ricardo left with Oluka after Nova refused his offer to return to Terra with Troy, and Li Qinwu led his fleet through the Webway toward Agricultural World 496B.
• Li Qinwu pursued and disabled a Dark Eldar pirate ship, then ordered the Fleet Iron Guard to board it despite heavy casualties and capture Archon Amanra.
• Amanra offered to guide Li Qinwu to Commorragh, while Li Qinwu discovered a captured Greenskin Warboss, T'au scientists, more than ten thousand human captives, and two imprisoned Primaris Astartes aboard the ship.
• Li Qinwu questioned the T'au scientists and assigned their research to Imperial researchers, then killed Anna after she blamed him for Louis’s death.
• Hulitai joined Li Qinwu’s forces, while Ragnar rejected returning to Fenris and said he would leave when he chose, and the Astartes later brawled with Yellow Sand during a drunken feast.
• Father Anthony extracted gene-seeds from Hulitai and Ragnar, and Saint Raiser confirmed that the five gene-seeds Li Qinwu provided were pure and highly compatible.
• Li Qinwu offered Little Sheep the chance to become an Angel, and Saint Raiser agreed to augment him after he gained weight, and ten recruits then swore their oaths as Broken-winged Angels and received Terminator Armour.
