Raimer led the 90 [[Black Templars]] marines aboard the ''Ophidium Gulf'' in a crusade into a treacherous part of space in the Galactic South, known as the Veiled Region. Here they discovered some inhabited worlds. The primitive aliens living there worshipped a god they called the "[[Voice of the Emperor]]".
While trying to find out what the nature of this god was, Raimer destroyed the alien temples and moved on to the core planets of the system. While doing so, they discovered that most of the worlds had already met a destructive power greater than Raimer and his men. During their trek to the core planets, the sensorium of the ''Ophidium Gulf'' detected a small fleet of vessels breaking orbit of one of the devastated worlds. Augers determined that these ships were of the [[Dark Angels]] [[Chapter]]. After making contact with the fleet, Raimer offered to fight alongside the Dark Angels to capture the alien's leader, the "Voice of the Emperor".
The fate of the ''Ophidium Gulf'' remains a mystery. The last that was heard of it was a single communication when en route to the system jump-point. There has been no contact with Castellan Raimer since.
