| With the fall of Llysfam Annuwiol, the Amatteir mastery of the Al-Sherar Sector ended. Although a relatively small conquest compared to the achievements of other Legions, the Fifth secured the space around their homeworld and established an alliance with one of the great Forge Worlds of the Segmentum. On those worlds that received word of the victory, officials responded with rapture. Gaspard Lumey and Ciban IV received high praise in most quarters - but not on Mars. The Martian Parliament protested at the Primarch conducting diplomacy with a Forge World above their heads and dispatched envoys to receive Al-Sherar's submission to the rule of the Red Planet. The refusal of the Kazi to bow to Mars set the stage for a theological and political dispute that raged on and off for centuries.

| Greater developments occurred in the Al-Sherar Sector. Military tribunals were held on the old Amatteir worlds to pass judgment on the occupiers. Although death sentences were summarily passed for all of the Xenos themselves, their human cronies and assistants were given some leniency for extenuating circumstances. Those who had not joined in the revolt were typically sentenced to a life of hard labour. The late-comers to the human cause received the dubious reward of a Warrant of Trade and a Cruiser, soon renamed ''The Weatherman'' by now-Captain [[Rogue Traders (Hektor Heresy)|Visant Le Gall]]. With the matter of drumhead justice settled, Gaspard Lumey turned to diplomacy. He swiftly brokered a treaty between Al-Sherar, Ciban IV, and the worlds of the Markian Pact for the division of the former Amatteir worlds. Colonisation picked up soon after the end of the war, establishing a cluster of Civilised Worlds (settled by Cibanese and Markians) and Industrial Worlds (drawn from the teeming stock of Al-Sherar and Ghalhal). Disputes among the interested parties were settled in the '''Al-Sherar Sector Tribunal''', in which Al-Sherar, Ciban IV, Ghalhal, the Markian Pact, and the Fifth Legion all had equal say.

| Finally, Gaspard Lumey organised the victors of the Al-Sherar Sector War into the [[Expedition Fleets (Hektor Heresy)|25th Expedition Fleet]] under his personal command. This force would be the Fifth Legion's main contribution to the Great Crusade for some time to come.

In 857.M30, the Fifth Legion fought a sector-wide conflict against the Xenos Empire of the Amatteir. While Gaspard Lumey's Space Marines were sorely tested, they emerged victorious with the aid of allies old and new. The addition of the Forge World Al-Sherar to the Imperium helped to spur on the Great Crusade.
