Editing Calael Bishop (section)

=Fate & Legacy=

Little is known about the circumstances of Bishop's death. Records indicate his flagship, the Prodigal Sun, was lured away from Providence in order to present an opportunity for Imperial forces to engage both.  Survivors of the event recall  the Primarch led a desperate boarding action against the enemy vessel, which thereafter vanished into the warp- simultaneously, an unprecedented army of Ghost-Martyrs manifested in Providence, devastating the Imperial invaders. Bishop's spectral form was seen atop the Blackstone Spire as he cast the immense meteoric spell that would come to be known as the Salvation of Providence, putting the enemy fleet to rout and casting the remaining craft into the Maelstrom. After this, his specter vanished along with the other Ghost-Martyrs, with one exception- his burning psionic blade, Solais, appeared in the Wardens' reliquary. The Astral Wardens believe this is a sign from their gene-sire that the Lodestar will someday return to lead them in their time of need. 

Since that time, several Legion Masters have led the V<sup>th</sup>, most recently Erasmus Cochrane, the first man to successfully grasp Solais' phantasmal form since it was interred in the Wardens' hallowed vaults.
