im not sure if it is in this forum that i said this, but the High Lords of Terra (HLOT) would Loose they collective minds over the return of a Primarch and the Disruption of the Status Quo, the HLOT and their collective backers fall into 3 catagories, 1. They serve The Emperor, 2. they serve the Imperium (they are not the same thing via Rogal Dorn in a conversation with either the Chief Custodian or The Sigil) 3. (and 99% fall into this group) they serve them selves and their power brokers.

"Beautiful on the surface, but rotten underneath. Don't ever, even for a second, doubt that this is the most dangerous world in the galaxy.... Danger does not always come in the shape of Orks with bolters, Ragnar. This world is where the elite of the Imperium have gathered. We are talking now of the most ruthless, ambitious, unscrupulous collection of rogues ever culled from a million planets. This is the place they have come to realise their ambitions, and on Terra they can, and will not let anything stand in their way. Not me, not you, not their own kin if need be."
