The following paragraphs contain spoilers for: | Storm of Damocles (Novel) |
M'au was a Tau Empire Fireblade from the Ke'lshan and was the leader of the hidden M'Yan'Ral Stormsurge facility on Sh'anshi.[1a]
After the facility was discovered by Watch Captain Nergui it was attacked by the Deathwatch and White Scars Chapter.[1b] The sudden attack caught M'au's Fire Warriors off guard, though they quickly fought back against the invaders. Unable to stop the Imperium's forces from reaching deep within M'Yan'Ral, M'au began to fear for the safety of the facility's Ethereal Aun'ui Hoo'nan. This led the Fireblade to personally escort the Ethereal to a secure room, which he and several others Fire Warriors then guarded.[1c] However, Watch Commander Jotunn had sensed there was an Ethereal in the facility and had begun searching for the Tau leader. Jotunn eventually found Aun'ui Hoo'nan's room where, despite being outnumbered, he killed M'au and the guards.[1d]
