Having just read legion its pretty clear that something is going on. The cabals visions are put pretty clearly in the book, I dont think they were lying.

My suggestion is that the twins looked at the options of loyal (everyone dies, chaos wins) or disloyal (everyone dies, chaos looses) and decided to take a different path. One gives themselves to chaos the other sticks loyal. Effectivley take both paths. This neatly explains the fact neither of the cabals options occur, it explains the bizzare fact the alpha legion hasnt been to the eye of terror.

Its also far and away the most alpha legiony thing to do. The first legion (Dark Angels) also split down the middle but in a much more obvious way and Legion specifically states the first snd last legions are key.
