Lorgar and the Emperor tried to separate Turing from Silverheart, but Silverheart regained control and forced a confrontation on Terra. Lorgar saved Turing, Novalors was destroyed, and the arc ended with Lion El'Jonson mistaking Lorgar and Anna for a couple as the Emperor hinted at a future favor.

• Lorgar persuaded the Emperor to end Turing’s punishment, and they agreed to repair him while secretly removing Silverheart-linked components and preparing to destroy Novalors if necessary.
• Silverheart contacted Maccabeus as the Eleventh Legion withdrew, and later reunited with Turing through a Servo-skull aboard the Logical Dominion.
• Turing urged the Eleventh Legion to integrate AI companions into its ranks, prompting Imperial leaders to plan to separate him from the Legion and summon him to Terra.
• Leman Russ and the Custodes ambushed Turing at the palace, and Lorgar fought him until Silverheart’s control left Turing gravely damaged.
• Turing said he wanted to live and go home, so Lorgar burned away Silverheart’s nanites and systems before the Emperor placed Turing in stasis under guard.
• The Emperor ordered the captured Eleventh Legion warriors executed, while Lorgar declined command of the Legion and suggested Roboute Guilliman take it.
• Angron fired Superstar at Novalors, destroying the planet, its satellites, and Silverheart’s substrate.
• Lion El'Jonson questioned Lorgar about Superstar, then mistook Anna for Lorgar’s partner, and the Emperor later told Lorgar they approved of his supposed marriage before mentioning an unspecified future favor.

Lorgar led a coalition against Amg’s vast Ork WAAAGH, then joined forces with Amg to battle the Drukhari in Commorragh. The Drukhari fled after Imperial reinforcements arrived, while the deaths of Kallus and Calas Typhon left Lorgar weighing the future of his allies and the Imperium.

• Amg the Starbreaker brought a million-ship Ork fleet and a star-sized scrap fortress against Klas Noda’s fleet, and Lorgar assembled reinforcements from several Primarchs to destroy the WAAAGH.
• Lorgar and Hercules boarded the fortress, where Anna’s nanometal armor helped Lorgar cut through the Orks before he challenged Amg to a duel.
• Archon Post and the Drukhari interrupted Lorgar and Amg’s fight, so the two joined forces against them and pursued Post through a Webway rift into Commorragh.
• Lorgar and Amg devastated Commorragh with their powers, and Hercules and the Ork Warlords joined them before Amg chose to remain and train for a rematch.
• Imperial forces drove off the Drukhari fleet, and Sanguinius arrived to help the Word Bearers secure the sector and gave Lorgar a quill from one of his feathers.
• After Khârn reported Captain Kallus’s death, Lorgar learned that Calas Typhon had also died and decided to deliver Typhon’s remains to Mortarion himself.

Lorgar’s efforts to improve the Imperium’s war machine were interrupted by a Slaaneshi attack and news of Corax’s discovery. After finding Corax tortured and a human girl dead, Lorgar led a devastating assault on Kiavahr, while Curze reached the secret facility where Corax had been held.

• Mortarion mourned Calas Typhon and vowed to make the enemy grieve, while Rockefeller’s memories led from his youth to his position as Word Bearers Chapter Master.
• Valkyrie reported the recovered exoskeleton data, and Lorgar ordered Cissel Power Armour into production as Anastasia inspected Hephaestus and began a secret project.
• Valeria Messalina disguised herself as Anastasia and offered Lorgar pleasure, but Lorgar saw through the deception and destroyed the daemon’s apparent form.
• Ferrus Manus mourned the Iron Hands lost to the Hrud and put Aerion in charge of the guard and First Company’s rebuilding, while Fulgrim and Akurduana dealt with Akurduana’s foul stew.
• Malcador told Lorgar that the Emperor had found Corax, and the Emperor then ordered Lorgar to bring Angron and Curze to Lycaeus.
• Corax attacked Lorgar, Angron, and Curze aboard the Golden Dream, and Lorgar knocked him unconscious before demanding an explanation from the Emperor.
• After learning that rogue researchers had imprisoned and tortured Corax, Lorgar killed the captured researchers and ordered a full assault on Kiavahr, with Angron and Curze joining him.
• The Word Bearers, War Hounds, and Night Lords attacked Kiavahr, where Lorgar destroyed the Core Archives and Curze infiltrated the secret laboratory and concentration camp.

Corax’s captivity and loss of Bella set Lorgar on a path of political maneuvering, while the White Scars answered Suiyang’s call and Pei Min faced Rahn. Lorgar took control of Pei Min’s body, killed Rahn, and destroyed the altar before Pei Min collapsed.

• Corvus Corax endured years of experiments on Lycaeus, met Bella Cora, and later accidentally killed her after breaking free and finding her gravely wounded.

• Lorgar killed Rahn, destroyed the altar, and burned away its profane markings before Pei Min collapsed.
