Gal Vorbak of the Serrated Sun Chapter The Primarchs A conversation between Word Bearers of the In the novel A Thousand Sons by Graham McNeill, during the Triumph of Ullanor, Magnus mentions the missing primarchs to his brother Mortarion: This theory also does not describe why the Blood Ravens would still be present in the late 41st Millennium - obviously their forebears had committed some terrible acts of treachery for their records to be completely obliterated, to such an extent that even other Legions present at the time presumably also had any of their own records of the Lost Legions and their primarchs destroyed or modified. This theory, however, gives undue importance to the Blood Ravens, because, outside of the Dawn of War PC games, they are in no way a significant Chapter in the Imperium of Man's history. This has given way to the theory that the primarch of the II Legion could possibly be the founder of the Blood Ravens Chapter. The only information Games Workshop has ever released on this subject that directly addresses the mystery can be found in the Horus Heresy novels False Gods and The Lightning Tower by Dan Abnett. Primarch Rogal Dorn, in the falls of the Kath Mandau Precinct, Imperial Palace, TerraĮarlier, less ambiguous sources go so far as to say that information on the Lost Legions and primarchs was deleted following the Horus Heresy. In the short story The Lightning Tower, when the Imperial Fists' Primarch, Rogal Dorn, is in the falls of the Kath Mandau Precinct of the Imperial Palace and comes upon a series of pillars with plinths that contain life-sized statues of all the Space Marine Legions' primarchs, he notes: The reader is advised to make up their own mind based on the available evidence.

The complete and utter erasure of all records of the II and XI Legions is considered by Imperial historians as the most successful Edict of Obliteration ever carried out in Imperial history. In a galaxy-spanning empire that stresses fealty and loyalty to the Emperor in return for advancement, acclaim and spiritual salvation for its elites, this is perhaps one of the most severe punishments. This is the official Imperial policy of deliberately destroying any records, icons or other symbols or monuments pertaining to an individual or organisation, usually of the Imperial elite, who has been declared Excommunicate Traitoris by the Emperor of Mankind (before He was interred within the Golden Throne), the High Lords of Terra or the Inquisition. This formal censure and erasure from official records is known as an Edict of Obliteration, also called a Damnatio Memoriae, a High Gothic phrase meaning "condemnation of memory." Referred to as "the forgotten and the purged" it is known only that the missing primarchs and their Legions are listed as having been "deleted from Imperial records."
