Following the Battle on Ravendelve, Corax still was committed to combating the forces of Horus. Compensating for his devastated legion's small numbers, he conducted raids, hit-and-run attacks, and instigated uprisings on traitor controlled worlds. These included actions on [[Constanix II]], [[Scarato]], and [[Carandiru]].{{Fn|9}}
Eventually, Corax reassembled the entirety of his surviving Legion at the [[Dexius System]]. There he contemplated on the future of the Raven Guard, with many of his legion wishing to return to Terra to aid the Emperor against Horus' offensive. After evading a [[Night Lords]] attack, Corax was again influenced by the visions of [[Marcus Valerius]] who saw that the [[Space Wolves]] were on the verge of destruction. Corax led the Raven Guard in the [[Battle of Yarant]] to aid the Space Wolves against traitor forces. During the battle, Corax led a suicidal last stand alongside [[Bjorn]], but after witnessing the arrogance and vanity of Horus' forces realized that it was not up to him to determine when he would die. He was a servant of the [[Emperor]], and would continue to aid him against the traitors until he met his end. Thus Corax led an evacuation from [[Yarant]] and expressed his intent to continue resisting the traitorous [[Warmaster]] from the shadows.{{Fn|11}}  Corax and Russ both reappeared alongside eventually made for [[Deliverance]], eventually meeting up with [[Lion El'Jonson]]at the Raven Guard's Fortress-Monastery. The Lion is quick to question the Raven Lord's absence from major fronts of the war, but is ire is put to rest by Russ, who points at the survival of his own legion as evidence of their worth. Russ declares he will join The Lion's [[Passage of the Angels|Crusade of Vengeance]], including warriors equipped with new [[Mark VI Power Armour]] produced on [[Kiavahr]]. Corax however is cautious to commit his bloodied Legion to what he sees as a needlessly spiteful waste, and only assigns a small expeditionary force of his Raven Guard to The Lion's forces. Even in this role, Corax's forces will be used to eliminate key enemy targets ahead of the main Dark Angelsfleet in order to spare entire worlds from annihilation. Raven Guard forces later took part in the [[Siege of Barbarus]], assailing the homeworld of the [[Death Guard]] alongside the Dark Angels and Space Wolves.{{Fn|17}} [[Siege of Barbarus|besieging]] the [[Death Guard]] homeworld of [[Barbarus]].{{Fn|17}}
