While the eldar of the Kel Sandros craftworld began searching for the Foramen Ignotum in order to advance their plans for Tau domination of the galaxy in order to destroy chaos, the Sisters of Quartz were actively following a different path. The harlequin troupe were growing ever more alarmed by the trespass of the lesser races into matters that neither concerned them and would likely bring damnation to all. However, the troupe were also being tracked by members of the Crimson Blade dark eldar kabal, who were keen that the Sisters did not find out their plans. By straying too close to the kabal's domain in the webway the harlequins had brought doom upon themselves. Ambushed in the labyrinthine corridors close to Commorragh the sisters fought for their lives but the small band that had become isolated from the rest of the sisters was mercilessly slaughtered by their dark kin. The harlequins put up an impressive fight, taking down all but two of the ambushing party, but the dark eldar had ensured that their own plans and intentions remained hidden from the other Aeldari faction. Had they found out, the harlequins would have almost certainly brought the full weight of the Craftworld eldar to oppose them.
The Sisters of Quartz had further issues when responding to a signal from a distant world. The barren world had been the site of multiple investigations by the factions of the Aleph sector, but when the harlequins finally arrived they found no-one. Unfortunately the hive mind found them, and every member of the band sent to the world was killed and then devoured by a genestealer attack on their way back to the webway portal. The Sisters of Quartz were losing their front line warriors, and still they were no nearer to stopping the discovery and misuse of the necron device.
