    Blood Reaver Synopsis needed

    Hey, I have started Void Stalker today and I am having a bit of a problem understanding whats going on. The problem is I read Blood Reaver quite some time ago and am having trouble remembering it (Variel who?). Can someone please give me a short synopsis of what happened.

    Hmmm..... the Night Lords go to Hell's Iris and attack the Marines Errant fortress monastery in exchange for supplies/repairs to the Covenant of blood form the Red Corsairs. However, they realise that one of the RC strike cruiser's is actually one of theirs - it was originally the Echo of Damanation. They then plot to betray the RC. During the assault on the Marines Errant Fortress Monastery the NL dissapear, and board the Echo of Damanation, managing to airlock out the company of RC on board, with the help of Variel, an apothecary who has gone over to the NL to repay a favour to Talos.They use Octavia to pilot it out of Hell's Iris. Meanwhile, in exchange for gene-seed, Talos had been given Ruven from the RC. He then helps Octavia to get the warp jump. However, while escaping the Covenant is destroyed by the Corsairs' fleet, killing the Atremntar and the Exalted. Ruven, Deltrian, etc excape. Blood Reaver ends with Talos killing Ruven for killing Secondus
    Thanks (N.B bad spelling )

    Seriously, if you're such a **** that you need a Chaos god to back you up in any fight you enter you deserve to get murdered. Real men do it by force of their own badass. And don't even get me started on those weak-ass mother **** psyker witch losers.

    Thanks a lot. Exactly what I needed.

    A little question though: I dimly remember some sort of raptors war band but the NL were severely short of men. Did Talos secure new gene seed or recruits to refill the NL ranks?

    I believe they were among those that the Covenant rescued from Crythe at the end of Soul Hunter. i can't remember if it mentions anything in the short story though.
