Good point Attank about the Emperor's feelings toward Horus, I get what you mean. Maybe I didn't word it very well, I was just thinking of scenarios that may have occured had the Lion been aboard Vengeful Spirit with his father.

You make a good point though, if the Lion had been with the Emperor when he came across Horus, nothing he said probably would have convinced him that Horus was completely corrupted, so the Lion could have been in danger from his father just as much as he would have been from Horus.

Or, like you said, had Sanguinius and The Lion defeated Horus, the Emperor may have been furious with them for their actions.
