So I just recently found out the slaanesh wasn't the god of excess originally but essentially the chaos god of sex in older additions. alot of her lore was focused around sex and sexual topics before GW rebranded her to be excess in all its form, which was a good thing. now I'm curious what was the lore around fulgrim's fall during this time or was it not made back then before slaanesh got rebranded?

I just finished reading Angel Exterminatus and the only bit I remember them mentioning was "she who feeds". The whole planet was more or less a prison to keep her satiated. I'm guessing there's more lore elsewhere that'll provide answers, but I'm still only 20-ish books in.
