well russ was on a quest to find something that could possibly heal dear old papa. from what i can tell though (which i admit isn't much :) ) this 'something' is either non-existant or resides in the plague gardens of nurgle, possibly the eldar god isha.

if his quest actually needs him to enter the plague gardens then his quest is doomed. grandfather nurgle spends most of his time in his gardens which means for russ to extract whatever he's looking for he'll have to sneak past nurgle like the sneakiest of sneaky things or confront nurgle. now russ isn't really into the sneaky aspect of conflict so i don't see him either trying it, or pulling it off if he does try, and confronting nurgle just ends up with a dead and pustulantly bloated primarch (sorry legion).

like i said though i don't know that much about what russ is actually looking for, so feel free to correct me if this^ is off the mark.

as far as i know none of the other missing primarchs were on any sort of quest or looking for anything, but in regard to returning with something of worth, my money's on vulkan. he hid a bunch of stuff for his chapter to find, and until that happens there hasn't been a peep out of vulkan. i find it hard to believe that he's just been sitting on his arse thinking "throne, it's taking a lot longer for them to find that stuff that i thought. maybe i should have done something constructive with my spare time." i think (i also hope) that he's spent the intervening millenia building something, or somethings, that'll make a significant difference to the imperium.
