Erebus was converted into a Space Marine of the Word Bearers shortly after and began to implement the Dark Gods plans to overthrow the Emperor's order. Instead, Erebus felt exhilaration at seeing the man he would soon bring low.

When the Covenant of Colchis fell at the hands of Lorgar and his followers Erebus went into hiding for a time before reemerging as an acolyte of the Primarch. Erebus became a devout child of Chaos thereafter, mastering the Old Faith of Colchis which in truth was just an aspect of Chaos worship.

Erebus cared little for his studies at first, but gradually began to appreciate their meanings. Taking the identify of Erebus for himself, the boy departed his village and became a aspiring priest for the Covenant of Colchis in the city of Vharedesh. Taking his parents advice to be more like Erebus to heart, the boy strangled him with a garrote and replicated Erebus' facial tattoos. His parents often scolded him for his poor behavior and lack of achievement, comparing him to his village's pride: a religious and studious child named Erebus.
