    @JRPGFan20000 "souls" in 40k are not what we call souls in the catholic religion. It's simple the subject's presence in the warp. A human can exist without it, those humans are a special class of psycker who negate the warp in them and around them, cutting any link they might have to the soul's realm. So dark eldars' don't really change from this perpetual change of souls, but their permanent link surely corrupt them

    For those confused as to why the Imperium has gone to the Dark Eldar for help, as opposed to the Eldar. The answer is simple the Dark Eldar have access to the vast majority of advanced technology from the pre-fall Eldar empire. This might be confusing for some, since the Craftworld Eldar have closer connections to their ancient traditions. What many people often forget or don't know about the Craftworld Eldar is that prior to the Fall, Craftworlds were not designed as places to live in and of themselves but as transport craft design to deliver supplies between distant planets. Because of the vast distances required to deliver various goods and supplies it was necessary for Craftworlds to be self sufficient. This would lead the inhabitants of these Craftworld to develop an insular and completely parallel culture to mainstream Eldar society. Thus they were effective "gypsies" within there own culture. Now admittedly the Craftworlds are advanced technology but they were effectively highly complex transports, think about it this way how advanced are our own shipping boats compared to the our overall level of technological prowess. Now the Dark Eldar on the other hand have an entire city full of technological marvels from their golden age. A city that acted as the primary shipping lane between the Webway and Real Space for the ancient Eldar empire. They have suns contained contained within a sub-realm around their city that they use as near endless power source and sophisticated understanding of biological augmentation that surpasses any other race currently in existence. There rejuvenating technology is so effective the oldest of Commoragh's Homunculi were alive even before the Fall. They have created weaponry that can cause massive crippling pain and injuries while also still keeping you alive and conscience. So to summarize while both have access to technology far beyond anything humanity currently has. The Dark Eldar simply have more of it and in some cases have technology that simply nobody else has access to or can even replicate.

    The Drukhari however have one major default with most of these ancient tech : They cannot operate it any longer. Most of these technology were based on psychic abilities to be used, and the Drukhari Lost that a long time ago. For exemple, in Valedor, the Drukhari offers to the Asuryani an ancient planet-killer weapon called the Fireheart to fight the Tyranids, because it requires Psykers to activate. Another reason for the technological difference is that, unlike what most believe, the Asuryani are not found of mass destruction and murder, and as such, avoid using mass destruction weapons like the Drukhari have, or technology based on forbidden science (like Necromancy), because it may lead them closer to Chaos. Only some Craftworld like Iyanden have passed beyond that restrictions for necessities, and Craftworld Biel-Tan, because they give themselves the permission as Defenders of the Maiden World. However, this last part has become less important with the closing days of the 41st Millenium.

    Whilst humans are populous and useful don’t forget the sheer resources the Drukhari command. Some of their factions make a habit of capturing the populations of entire hive worlds to put in suspended animation to cover any potential ‘famines’. Comorragh itself is a ‘city’ that is the size of an entire sector. The imperial navy are a thorn in their side. No astromicon = no imperial fleet = feeding frenzy. No (or vastly reduced) humans = much less fuel for the Chaos Gods. Could be pretty handy for the Drukhari to betray the Imperium. There are other slave races that are available.

    The Dark Eldar can be perhaps be blackmailed as well. The Throne holds closed a rift not only into the Warp, but also stabilizes a shattered portion of the Webway. The Throne fails? Well then Daemons flood into the Webway, and they would not only overrun Terra, but, using their now-unfettered access to the Webway, would very likely head directly for the Dark City itself; a prize that Slaanesh has coveted for millennia.

    AS a drukhari, there are many reasons to do so, besides the obvious souls. Mankind is still one of the biggest enemy of Chaos. And the chance to manipulate the Emperor by "repairing" the thorne to influence the emperors behavior would be a tremendous advantage. Drukahri Archons are long term schemers. Also the Drukahri know best how to use souls to stay alive.

What they do is from a place of survival, which is why they are compelling in the first place. They know helping humanity only benefits them. More slaves, more allies, more victims, and ultimately more chances for a way to stop Slaanesh.

    To a point. They escape chaos' notice in part because they don't actively pose a threat to them. If humanity fell into the Eye of Terror, that priority would change, but strengthening the Imperium also makes it harder to acquire pain slaves. No, I think the appeal is more selfish and less political. Homunculi are supposedly politically mercenary, their loyalties going to whomever can best provide them with their needs (test subjects, souls, etc). This is not an accord with a Cabal and therefore with Asdrubael or Malys.

I've always personally liked the Imperium the most in 40K, although I don't agree with everything they've done, but in the choice between psycho pervert Xenos and a beyond fucking psycho pervert Chaos God? I'll take the Xenos. They can be wiped much easier if the time comes, and besides can they really be judged for what they do? Considering how thousands of souls are fed to the Emperor every week to sustain Him, his own people, can the Drukhari be judged so harshly?

    Capture a load of Ork Mech bois, along with tonnes of Orks you convince to be loyal to the Emperor by promising them really cool weapons if they're loyal to the Emperor, and then have the residents of Terra cheer them on as they repair the Throne. The extra Ork mercenaries are just there to amplify the effect but by cheering on the Mech bois they'll be utterly convinced their thing will work, and because of that it will. Alternatively, get those Drukhari but use Orks to amplify the effect, or get your Mechanicus and psykers to get their shit together so that you can figure out how exactly Orks work and see if you can make some new kind of Ork which isn't obsessed with killing everything but still has that self-belief effect, then make more and more and then have them amplify the capability of the repairmen you get working on the Throne and then the capability of the Emprah himself.

    I heard about the dank eldar helping the big E and needed to Google this, was up until 6 am bathing in some of my new favorite lore, and then I came across this video The pleasure never ends I feel like a commoragh citizen on christmas

    The Dark Eldar would help the Imperium for one simple reason. Slannesh. They know the Imperium are the only thing that can slow down Chaos and if they wake the Emperor of Mankind then the Chaos gods are going to be busy.

    That and the drakari'd probably be less dangerous, both would fuck you over but the dark eldar would probably do something obvious, like put a bomb in or something. A farseer'd leave a slight scratch on the floor the emperor would trip and break his back on as he's finally resurrected from the throne 8 thousand years latter. That and the craftworld eldar might not have the technology they're basically descendents of the eldar amish.

    I don't trust the Drukhari not to hide a kill switch inside their throne. Imagine being able to hold the Emperor ransom.
