Oui Garviel Loken est devenu un Chevalier Gris.

La dernière information qu'on a à son sujet est qu'il observe le bombardement orbital final (ogives nucléaires) depuis sa position puis repart dans des sous sols pour "garder" quelque chose.

Par la suite il est fait quelques fois références à lui, comme ici:

'Not like Rylanor to run from a fight' noted Eidolon
'No' agreed Lucius ' though Tarvitz did say about him guarding something'.
'Guarding what?'
'He didn't say. Rumour was he found some kind of underground hangar..'

(from p429 Fulgrim)

Plusieurs rumeurs furent établies à ce sujet, notamment le fait qu'il aurait trouvé un hangar secret. Pour cette rumeur ci, plusieurs explications sont proposées par les fans et lecteurs (qu'il gardait le corps brisé de Loken pendant sa guérison, qu'il gardait l'héritage de sa Légion, ou encore qu'il gardait un lieu "sanctuaire" où purent se réfugier les rares loyalistes encore vivants)

Acune mention officielle de ce qu'il est devenu n'a été faite, et je pense que dans l'avenir nous en sauront plus étant donné que je trouve très étrange de laisser une telle histoire sans suite précise et définie.

...
However by some twist of fate, or through the will of the Emperor, Loken did not die in the bombardment. Months later, well after Horus' fleet had moved on to face the Emperor's Loyalists at the Drop Site Massacre on Istvaan V, where 4 more Astartes Legions declared their open allegiance to Chaos and to Horus, Loken finally managed to dig himself out of the rubble of the Choral City, Istvaan III's capital city. Unfortunately, Loken's mind had been broken by the trauma of the betrayal and his wounds and he had lost both his memory and his identity. Instead, he took up a new role and named himself Cerberus after the ancient Terran legend of the hound who guarded the gates of the Underworld, because he believed that death had rejected him, the "monster" who now haunted the burnt and broken ruins of Istvaan III for over a year, killing the other survivors of the betrayal, beleiving himself to be the last Loyalist Space Marine in existence.

This changed when Battle Captain Nathaniel Garro, formerly of the Death Guard Legion and now a Loyalist Space Marine in the special service of the Emperor after his escape from Istvaan III on the Imperial frigate Eisenstein, returned to Istvaan III with the express purpose of searching for Loken as a recruit to join the organisation that Malcador the Sigillite intended to found on the Emperor's orders that would later become the Imperial Inquisition. They encountered a handful of survivors who spoke of a beast that hunted them. Taking matters into his own hands, Garro went to the lair of the so-called beast of Istvaan III, and on discovery of the long-dead corpse of Tarik Torgaddon, he was attacked by the unkempt, nearly-psychotic "Cerberus". After a lengthy battle, during which Cerberus escaped, Garro and his companions discovered that the human "survivors" of the virus-bombing of Istvaan III were in fact daemonhosts who had been transformed into undead Plague Zombies of Nurgle when the virus-bombing had weakened the barrier between the Immaterium and Istvaan III, allowing the Plague Lord's influence to reign supreme. Garro and his Loyalist Astartes managed to defeat the foul creatures with the aid of Cerberus; however, once the undead had been destroyed, Garro and Cerberus had one more one-on-one combat match.

It was during this final fight that Garro managed to reach through the amnesia and fractured awareness of Cerberus to the core of the good man that remained deep within his psyche, reminding him of who he truly was, and that the Emperor still had a use for him in rooting out the corruption that was staining the Imperium. Aware of his true identity once more, Garviel Loken joined Garro and his team. With his assemblage of warriors now complete, Garro and Loken left Istvaan III for Luna to receive their first mission from Malcador the Sigillite.
