12:20 We actually got Titus lore and the 100 years gap explained in a White Dwarf magazine. The Inquisitor that took him iirc imprisoned and experimented on Titus because he was fascinated by his resistance to the warp. The Ultramarines chapter was trying to get Titus back into their ranks this whole time and considered the fact that Inquisition took him unlawful. The Inquisitor ignored their messages. Eventually the Inquisitor was eliminated by other inquisitors after they deemed his actions heretical and they freed the Space Marines he was experimenting on. Titus, thinking that Ultramarines have never contacted the Inquisition and didn't want him back, decided to become a Blackshield. Members of the Deathwatch who conceal the chapter they're from, sort of disowning themselves. He spent decades in service of the Deathwatch, and Ultramarines eventually assumed he was dead. They end up finding him wounded, giving him the primaris treatment and reinstating him into the chapter. The demotion to the rank of lieutenant isn't supposed to be any sort of penance or punishment as many people think. The position of a captain of 2nd company was simply taken by other people for over a century, and demoting the current captain to get Titus his old rank would've been unfair/in bad taste. EDIT: It was in White Dwarf issue 498. I've read this months ago and might've got some details wrong, so look it up if you want the 100% correct version of events

Damn that actually is kinda wholesome in a sense, I always thought that they disowned him afterwards when he became a blackguard so it’s nice to hear it was actually the opposite

The inquisitor was actually possessed by a demon during a purge of a heretical cult and killed by a Grey Knight under his command to stop the demon. it was only after his death that the inquisition launched an investigation into what exactly he was doing.

In regards to the Primaris: Some authors had already decades ago laid the ground work storywise that the contemporary 40k Astartes have biologically degraded which reduced their stature and capabilities compared to the 40k Legionaires. E.g it once being common that the transformation process would turn the boy looks wise into an almost to direct copy of his father Primarch. In short, it would be best if GW and the writers just make the Primaris be callbacks to the Legionaires of old and that the additional modifications are merely a necessary patchwork because Cawl couldnt get the job done otherwise .
