Chaos lies - maybe. GW has very cleverly made all the evidence re: the Lost Primarchs vague and contradictory leaving us free to do as we like with them (thanks guys!). Marshall, your scenario is a definite possible but not a positive certainty.

Personally I prefer to see the 'Lost' Primarchs as having been cast into outer darkness for dissent from the Imperial Creed. NOT Chaos corruption since nobody seems to even contemplate such a possibility in HH until hit in the face with it. And NOT out and out betrayal since the idea of treachery from the ranks of Primarchs and Astartes seems similarly unthinkable. Russ flatly states that his legion has fought other Astartes before so it's safe to assume that he was deployed against his brethren but nobody outside the Wolves seems to know this. I admittedly cling to the implication in the exchange between Dorn and Malcador that the 'Lost' legions and their Primarchs still exist - somewhere - out of touch and out of reach. But hey - that's a possibility too.

So how many people out there have their very own Primarch and Legion? We all want to be a Primarch right?
