Pallas Eugenesis, summoned to tend to Hektor, was incensed by his wounding.  She unhesitatingly laid the blame on the Council of Terra, and declared that the "white-handed bureaucrats" of the Council had thrown Hektor into the fire out of jealousy and fear that his First Legion would once again reclaim its place as the right hand of the Emperor.  Pallas remained bitter even after Hektor recovered his health, often pointing to his lost eye as a reminder of the callousness of the Emperor's ministers.

The Warmaster did not hasten to rebellion, but he began looking for others among the Adeptus Astartes who shared his resentment of the Council of Terra.  Such men were not in short supply.  [[Camaxtli]] felt that his men had long been dishonoured by the duties thrust upon them.  [[The Voidwatcher]] and his [[Black Augurs]] craved complete liberty in their mystical research.  [[Rogerius Merrill]] perhaps had no hate for the new regime, but he preferred a man he long knew and trusted to the new Council.  Most dangerous of all was Hektor's protégé, [[Aubrey The Grey]], whose youthful optimism had been slain at Lazarus.  The Primarch of the Eternal Zealots feigned personal loyalty to Hektor and pledged to find him more partisans besides, but his real goals were much darker than the Warmaster's.
