@Crimsonfire: That works very well actually. The first stragglers went around the Red Veil, but as the NE grew, the Brotherhood of Darklings started to notice and pick them off. By the time the NE steal Matrukoris, to go trough is the viable only option left (aka the Brotherhood doesn't dare to go there).

I imagine the NE's trek trough the Veil would be something akin to the Long March, a perilious trek to safety, resulting in a safe haven being reached but with huge losses for the NE.

The Covenant will not take back Matrukoris. The Blood Brotherhood might possess it for while, but at the end of the trek the NE will pull it trough (probably with the introduction/aid of the Koatria Protectors/anti-MONARCH Warrior-Hunters). The NE is "forced" to flee in the end (getting away safely was their intention), but they pull Matrukoris out of the Red Veil with them. The BB claim overall victory, but in truth the aims of both sides are fulfilled.
