After many long and bloody battles, the Blood Phoenixes finally completed their purge of the Planet Cronus. The Battle Barge Stampede of Fury remained in close orbit, imposing a strict prohibition on any visits to the world, while the Fifth Company maintained the Castallium Incorruptus in North Manedea.

The Equestrial Guard's Segmaretum Command lodged protest for the Blood Phoenixes actions, reporting them to the Inquisition. The Blood Phoenixes successfully defended their actions, convincing their interrogators that General Rockvolter should have bowed to the Blood Phoenixes orders and withdrawn.

Nevertheless, the Inquisition kept a watchful eye on the Chapter, for the rumors of hoarded relics never fully abated. Likewise, many in the Guard's command structure never forgot the blood shed on Cronus.

And indeed, the darkest time in the Chapter's history began soon after the war's end.
