The Crowd-“Elitist” Society


The Crowd-“Elitist” Society
Each of us at least once has asked himself: Who am I? Where am I going? What do I want? What am I living for?
Being unable to find the answer ourselves we ask other people for help through direct communication, books, movies, pictures and music. We understand that we are born not by chance, that there are personal and public interests, that one or another type of social life arrangement can either support or hamper the development of our creative powers. At last we come to a question: Which society are we born in and which society are we going to build?







We can see that under the current social order that exists in all countries of the world the majority of the population is not living, but surviving constant adversity, not understanding the reasons for this, whereas the “elitist” minority is actually growing fussy, while the global civilization has come to a biospheric and ecological dead end. This situation allows to say that the existing “world order” is not a natural norm.
“The world is grand chess board” – says Zbigniew Brzezinski (Zbignev Bjezinski) meaning by this a constant conflict as a norm for societal life.
But is it really so?
To answer the question let’s see which levels exist in the current social order.
As Belinsky said:
“A crowd is a gathering of people who live by tradition and reason based on authority”
Therefore, a crowd is a group of individuals living dishonestly.
Level One. A crowd of “little people” – pawns – who think that nothing depends on them, their destiny is just to be a grass on the battle field.
In this system there is only one rule of movement on the board for all the pawns prescribed by a “holy Scripture” and based on support of the “elite” and authority of the leader. However, it’s not clear for the common layman what the best way is for him to accomplish his benevolent intentions and cherished dreams, because he does not possess adequate knowledge about social governanceand has just a hazy notion of what is good and what is evil. And the information provided by various educational systems contains just fragmentary knowledge in a restricted professional area sufficient maybe for a job of a cashier in a supermarket.
Level Two. This is the so-called “elite” – also a dishonest group of individuals controlling the behaviour of the crowd of pawns, defending its own utterly clannish interests. This social stratum has the same degree of understanding of social governance as the pawns do, but due to the mafia-type clan system it has more opportunities to satisfy its claims of would-be superiority and the right to parasitize. Each “elite” piece also has its own rule of movement on the chessboard prescribed by a holy Scripture and a blind belief in the power of chief’s authority. However, the knowledge the “elite” possess is also fragmentary, but from more different spheres of knowledge and more detailed, sufficient for them to exploit the crowd. By its moral nature the so-called “elite” is the same as a crowd, but a more informed one.
To maintain the development of the system it must be maintained in a constant confrontation with a similar system, appointed to the role of enemy by global game rules – which is reflected in the mind of the crowd as the “struggle of opposites” according to the “divide and conquer” principle. This is a sort of “field training exercise” to keep the system fully armed in case an alternative system of social governance appears. In the objective reality the Universe itself does not generate any struggle of opposites; this struggle only appears with the malicious intent of governing officials and executives.
This is where the role of the global players controlling the system within their global political game manifests itself. They have got a piercing intelligence to exercise well-learnt combinations. The global players justify their goals and means of achievement with corporate ethics which says: “The Corporation comes first”. They have fragmentary knowledge though more extended and detailed in the sphere of economics, governance and history, which makes them more erudite and enables them to forecast and control processes.
There may be more than two players. Different regional civilizations and supranational corporations have different ideals and goals, many of which are imposed from outside. It’s like multilateral chess where each player would be playing his own game.
This is all that most people are able to see.
But let us ask ourselves: where are the authors of the rules in this picture of the world, who devise and implement these games into the society, prescribing the scenario of existence for each piece, including the players, designed specially for each of them? Who is the possessor of the integral knowledge of social governance about the entire system in a slave-owning social order?
This level is controlled by a global clan of hierophants, otherwise called “a global predictor”, which implements the highest level of intrasocial power– the conceptual power – into life,  playing the role of God.
A conception is an idea of a certain social order.
Conceptual power is the power of people capable of:
·  Identification of problems and goal-setting related to them;
·  Devising of methods (conceptions) for achievement of the goals set;
·  Implementation of the conceptions into the process of social life.
Similarly, “conceptual power” refers to the power over a certain community (society) of ideas that express the goals of the social life, the means and the ways of their achievement.
The symbol of the global predictor is depicted on a one dollar banknote. It’s the eye of the Omniscence above the pyramid. The basis of it’s power is an artificially created monopoly for the knowledge of social governance. “Knowledge is power” - this way of thinking is used by the global clan of hierophants. The goal of the global predictor: to prevent the people from becoming Humans - the vicegerents of God on Earth.
These global managers might seem to be almighty, but they are not. The scenario they are trying to implement is not supported from on Above and that is why it is not stable. Consequently they have to devise more and more new forms of implementing slavery.
The conception of the slave-owning system is stated in the most widespread book on Earth – the Holy Bible. The Bible divides the dishonest crowd into two camps: the shepherd and the sheep.
It exhorts the sheep:
“Slaves, obey your earthly masters in everything; and do it, not only when their eye is on you and to curry their favor, but with sincerity of heart and reverence for the Lord”. (Bible, Colossians 3:22)
The culture which is based on the Biblical morality teaches the honest people, who want to live fairly, the following ethics: Only creative means are acceptable for achievement of goals, however the goals imposed are based on the string-pullers’ interests.
The shepherds of the crowd are habituated to the ethics: the ends justify the means. Hence, the only thing to do is just to maintain the Biblical ideals in the well-intending crowd using the carrot-and-stick approach.
Thou shalt lend unto many nations, but thou shalt not borrow; and thou shalt reign over many nations, but they shall not reign over thee.”. (Bible, Deuteronomy 15:6).
That is why we see a stable system where the well-meaning men of the crowd are toil for the shameless crooks. The well-meaning man of the crowd always justifies himself by saying: “Everyone lives like that”; and the dishonest “elite” has only one excuse which says: “Nothing personal, just business!”
Thus, the Crowd-“Elitist” Society is a hierarchic and pyramidical social order in which the upper classes do not recognize the human dignity of the lower classes. The culture generated by such society arrangement hampers the people to develop their creative potential. Consequently most of the people are factitiously relegated to the status of a crowd.

Main Features of the Crowd-“Elitist” System
- existence of a leader – the authority;
- existence of a reputable or Holy Scripture;
- existence of an initiation system;
- existence of a crowd which follows the leader and/or the Scripture thoughtlessly;
- existence of the so-called I-centrist ethics in all the people –atheism.
To prevent people from thinking about the possibility of building a fair society on Earth, the special term “Utopia” had been invented, with the meaning of something unreal and delusive, which actually was an obstacle for the mind making people think that it was just tales and fables created by fantasy authors. And to prevent people from considering the global social governancephenomenon, such terms as the “Conspiracy” and the “Conspiracy Theory” were implemented designed for deriding of those who start contemplating the subject.
Thus, the following cultural standards were gently instilled, convincing each individual of hopelessness of existence from the very childhood:
“It’s impossible to change fate”, “Life is full of afflictions – Lord endured suffering and commanded us to be patient”, “Enjoy life to the full”, “Life is but a span”, “After us, the deluge”.
The latter assertion is true since many people start wishing to flood this “Highly cultured” hell, and consequently at the entrance to adulthood the society gets a slave of passions and addictions, instilled by the culture, a slave to pleasures, who more and more seldom thinks of the means by which he satisfies his animal desires.
In the Crowd-“Elitist” Society the meaning of life is pleasure: “If there is a pleasure – there is life, no pleasure – no life”. This philosophy in the society with the crowd-“elitist” morality is implanted by the vicious “elite”, because it is the “elite” who is the trendsetter for the crowd. But the “elite” itself cannot do anything other than wasting life and parasitizing on the working class.
The problem of most authority figures is that this algorithmic is carried out by them unconsciously and fully automatically even if they proclaim alternative ethics principles different from the crowd-“elitist” ones. But implementation of this algorithmic is possible if the morality of the authority allows him to carry out these algorithms.
The authority shows how to treat the new information and the crowd, not wishing to think for itself, is acting based on the principle: “The giraffe is tall – He knows best!”
But the leader of the crowd himself in circumvention of consciousness depends on the higher levels of governance, which have goals that differ from his own, and this dependence is characterized by the principle: “Within one’s comprehension each one works for oneself, and within one’s incomprehension – for the one who comprehends more”.
The crowd-“elitist” culture is organized so that there are typical models of behaviour in various situations. The functional role and the place a person, can play and occupy within any association of people is accordingly specified beforehand in certain algorithms. These algorithms run through all the elements of culture: mass media, movies, theatre, books, traditions, and so forth. If a man diverges from the rules, ideas and actions established by the current culture, this is condemned by the crowd no matter if the man acts and thinks according to conscience or not.

Is there any alternative to the crowd-“elitist” society arrangement?
The escape from the crowd-“elitist” inferno, as famous Russian thinker Ivan Efremov wrote, , wrote, lies in the sense of proportion first of all, and not in blind faith. But this phrase of the writer should be continued with the following: to escape from the inferno the sense of proportion should be based on ethics which goes beyond the society, ethics based on which all the universe is functioning and developing. That is why a Man is gifted with Conscience. Listening to it a man is looking for answers about the goals of the mission of his soul on Earth and the means to achieve the goals in a direct dialogue with the Hierarchically Highest All-Enclosing Governance, and gets freedom as Gifted by God’s Guidance of Conscience. In this case there is no hierarchy in the society, because each man on Earth has his own unique mission and only he is the one who can accomplish it best.
Earth civilization still remembers the men who serve as an example of living in such ethics and who proclaimed the alternative to the crowd-“elitist” society. 2000 years ago Jesus Christ announced the possibility to build a society of fair life arrangement for all the mankind:
 “Since that time the kingdom of God is preached, and every man presseth into it”.
(Holy Bible, Gospel of Luke 16:16)
At present, as before, each one has an opportunity to realize what is fairness and unity by direct dialogue with the Creator without any mediators!
A principle of unifying people has existed in Russia since olden times, and is called “sobornost”. Based on this principle neither personal hierarchy nor social tension takes place. Before the Christianization of Russia the social leadershad quite a different attitude toward their homagers rather than now. The clannish-and-corporative isolation from the rest of society was not appropriate for them at that time. When the moral-and-ethical standards were equal for everyone, there was no personal hierarchy, though specialization of labor in the community was inevitable. That is why during some periods professional governing officials – a prince or a hierophant – could serve as a simple oarsman in a boat implicitly obeying a helmsman, while under other circumstances this helmsman would obey orders of the prince or the hierophant, at the same time they were equal to each other in terms of personal dignity.
That is how this relationship is described by Byzantine historian Leo the Deacon, telling about the meeting of Prince Svyatoslav with Emperor JohnTzimiskes:
“Sphendosthlavos arrived sailing along the river in a Scythian light boat, grasping an oar and rowing with his companions as if he were one of them. <…> His clothing was white and in no way different from that of the others with him – except for its cleanliness”.

Maurice, a famous Byzantine Emperor and writer of the sixth century, wrote about the Slavs: “They didn’t hold their prisoners in slavery until their death, but limiting the captivity to a certain period of time they would offer a choice: either to pay a ransom and get back home or stay as free persons and friends.”
Justice or fairness means absence of exploitation of human by human! When everybody has not only equal rights and duties, but there is a real opportunity to implement these rights.
Everything in the universe is fair, only an ancient choice is not, the one which has suggested the crowd-“elitist” culture of slavery to us, which must be dispersed like fog. So what prevents us from starting to correct the situation today, when the access to the world cultural heritage is granted through the internet for anyone?
Under the current living conditions of the society, due to the Law of Time, slavery in all of its aspects is fading away systematically, and more and more people can see it if they wish.

The Biblical concept of the crowd-“elitist” world order is supported by three mainstays:
1. Concealment of the knowledge of social governance  – called “Hermeticism”;
2. Implanting of the slave and slave-owner worldview based on deceitful ethics;
3. Hidden matriarchy, which means control through the sexual instincts whereby men are subjugated to women psychologically.
The Russian civilization proclaims its own concept of the fair life arrangement of the future:
1. The Concept of Public Security – the disclosure of the knowledge of social governance and dissemination of it through the educational system;
2. Learning and adoption by all people of the cognition methodology, the “dialectics”  as an art of searching for the truth by posing of elaborative questions and searching for answers to them;
3. Love –the God-given active state in which a man is really more capable and efficient in solving the problems of the society.
Based on the aforesaid, everyone has the right to start the construction of the society of social justice, in which there is no place neither for pawns, nor for queens and other active pieces of the wheeler-dealers and inquisitors existing within the framework of the crowd-“elitist” worldview. In the Russian worldview we all are equal before the Creator and there is no need in the games devised for finding the strongest, the smartest or the silliest one. There is a place for a Man, a vicegerent of God on Earth, his destiny and mission in Love and Co-creation for the good of the whole Universe.
 “…Vie, therefore, with one another in doing good deeds” (Qur’an 2:148) and God will add more to that, of which you do not know…

Несколько разработчиков убрали игры из Steam из-за того, что Valve не стала комментировать протесты в США

Ряд инди-разработчиков прекратили сотрудничество со Steam, убрав из магазина свои игры. Они обвинили площадку в отсутствии поддержки движения Black Lives Matter, так как Valve не комментировала связанные с ним протесты в США и мире. Об этом сообщил портал GamesIndustry.biz.

Первым объявил о разрыве отношений с Valve Джулиан Гландер. На странице его игры Art Sqool указано, что она больше не продаётся в Steam по просьбе автора. В обращении к Valve он упрекнул компанию в том, что она никак не прокомментировала протесты и «даже не выпустила проходного заявления о расовой справедливости». Он также предположил, что владельцы магазина «чувствуют себя обязанными сообществу злых белых мужчин-геймеров».

Вслед за Гландером с аналогичным заявлением к Valve обратился основатель Ghost Time Games Габриэль Кёниг — автор Jettomero и Test Tube Titans. Он заявил, что зарабатывал в Steam около тысячи долларов в месяц, но всё равно решил убрать из магазина платные версии своих игр, так как Valve не комментировала протесты в США.

Коллег также поддержал Дэн Сандерсон — он попросил удалить из Steam игру First Winter. По его словам, она «не приносила денег, но это дело принципа». На момент публикации материала тайтл всё ещё доступен для покупки в магазине Valve.

Разработчики призвали других создателей игр последовать их примеру и перейти на другие площадки. Гландер в качестве альтернативы предложил itch.io. Ранее этот магазин инди-игр собрал больше $8,1 млн в поддержку движения Black Lives Matter.

The Fracture of Biel-Tan - Part Two



With the Yncarne back in the game, the Ynnari are able to break out of the killing fields and fall back to a more a defensible location. They hole up inside the giant Memorial Hall of Atransis, holding the choke points easily. But Yvraine has found only one of the two swords on Belial IV, and they’re effectively trapped inside the Hall. That’s when two huge structures at the back of the hall being to open up, revealing a glowing portal. Stepping out from it is a massive Wraithknight, blue and yellow heraldry emblazoned upon it. Two more Wraithknights follow, as well as a host of smaller Wraith Constructs. Leading the Wraiths is Iyanna Arienal, the Angel of Iyanden. The Iyanden Wraiths cover the Ynnari forces, as Iyanna beckons them through the portal. Whilst they’re still missing one of the crone swords, to stay is to die so the Reborn dash through to the Webway and eventually to Craftworld Iyanden. Iyanna recognises a kindred spirit of sorts in Yvraine. Iyanna believes in Ynnead, but matters of the dead are a touchy subject in Iyanden. “I’ve got your back Sis, but others might not be so friendly,” she warns Yvraine as they enter the Craftworld. There’s one other small problem facing Iyanden at the moment – it’s under attack by two Space Hulks swarming with Demons of Nurgle.

With the defense of the Craftworld in full swing, the Ynnari party are greeted with crossed arms by the Iyanden defenders who basically force them into a house arrest until they can properly deal with them. Yvraine is kinda mad about this, but she forces herself to cool down to avoid hostilities. She instead reaches out with her Pyschic powers to her old Corsair buddies from Commoragh. Hearing her call, they come to the aid of Iyanden, unleashing an unexpected and devastating salvo on one of Space Hulks, destroying it.
Prince Yriel is leading the Iyanden defence, with his Corsairs. They are fighting furiously, and with exceptional skill, but the remaining Space Hulk is proving super-resilient – it is a Nurgle Hulk after all. Yriel realises that they need to launch a strike force to destroy it from the inside, however any conventional assault would be suicide. He comes up with a bold plan. He shuttles himself and his captains over to Iyanden, and convinces the pilots of the Craftworld to follow a specific course of co-ordinates in order to dictate the movement of the enemy Space Hulk. He then takes his group of corsair captains through the portal into the Webway. Using some ancient maps of the Webway near Iyanden, and a perfect sense of timing, Yriel gathers his captains into the right spot at the right time... and activates their personal Webway Teleporters to step right into the heart of the Space Hulk. Not as cool as a Teleportarium Assault by Terminator Assault Marines, but still pretty cool none-the-less.
The inside of the space hulk is utterly infected by the filth of Nurgle, and its only the Corsair Captains air-tight armour that stops them falling dead from a single breath of toxin. Resistance is light, only the occasional Nurgling, as the Corsairs had bypassed all the defences. They make their way to the Enginarium where they find the massively bloated Demon Prince Gara’gugul’gor (“whose name can only be pronounced correctly with a throat full of phlegm”). While he has super-dextrous tentactles to attack with, he’s so fat he can barely move. But lucky for him, his prey came right for him. The Corsairs are able to dodge his attacks at first, but the fighting attracts more and more Nurgle demons and the Corsair Captains are soon hard-pressed. Yriel goes all out – the Spear of Twilight destroying everything it touches – when the Demon Prince sprays a stream of vomit at him. Yriel is able to duck out of the way – but ducks straight into one of Nurgle Prince’s tentacles. Instantly, he’s wrapped up in the tentacle and drawn in to be devoured by the Demon but he uses his ocular implant – the Eye of Twilight – to burn himself free. Close enough now to strike, he brings the Spear of Twilight down... but not on the demon. Instead he strikes into the heart of the enginarium itself. The dark energies of the Spear leach through the machinery of the Space Hulk, turning it into rust and shutting down the engines. The Space Hulk is left unable to maneouver, thus ending its threat to Iyanden. Yriel smiles momentarily in victory – until Gara’gugul’gor grabs a massive girder and smashes Yriel dead with a massive blow. The Demon Prince mops up the rest of the Corsairs, but looks around in concern. He’s gonna lose his standing with Grandfather Nurgle over his failure to destroy Iyanden, but as he looks at the corpse of Yriel he starts chuckling. Maybe there is a way to salvage this mess... 

Iyanden has escaped the threat of the Nurgle forces, but at a high cost. Prince Yriel’s frozen body is found floating through space, and is retrieved with great sadness. What must Iyanden do to escape this seeming curse that haunts it’s every move? Yriel’s body is put into quarantine – the Eldar are no stranger to Nurgle’s “gifts” – and their caution is proved prudent when Yriels body explodes into contagion when examined by some Wraith constructs. Yvraine, since freed from the house arrest and given thanks for calling in the Corsair aid, hears of this and makes her way to the quarantine area. Holding her Crone Sword high, she channels the necromantic powers granted to her by Ynnead into waves of lethal energy that kill off all the spores of Nurgle released into the chamber. She then enters the chamber, and grabs the Spear of Twilight. Iyanna waves off the Wraiths that try to stop her, Yvraine gives Iyanna a curtsey (IS THIS A NEW ‘SHIP?!?!) and plunges the Spear into Yriel’s chest. Yriel bolts upgright, the life energies the Spear had stolen from him over the years returned, as the Spear itself transforms shape and reveals its true form – the 4th Crone Sword. Prince Yriel had been Reborn.

A council is convened of the assembled Eldar forces. “We must act now, to change the fate of the galaxy,” Eldrad says. “But the Great Enemy is ascendant. We cannot prevail alone”.
“Who can help us?” asks Sylandri Veilwaker. “The Tau are still too young, the Orks too unpredictable and the Tyranids out of the question. Humans are too easily corrupted – they are making the same mistakes we did, that led to our Fall.”
“They have faith,” says another Farseer, “and with Faith they have power”.
“The time of their corpse-god is over,” says Wraithknight Soulseeker. Yvraine, with Iyanna at her side, speaks up then. “No, they must have a new leader,” she says. “If we can raise a new hero that reminds them of the glory of their past, they will follow him just as we cling to our myths.”
“She is right,” says Eldrad, “and I have already forseen of a leader the Humans will follow like sheep. We must go to the moon of Klasius and meet our shared destiny”.
“We shall give the humans a demi-god,” says Yriel, his chill voice sounding as if it comes from the grave, “A king reborn, with a deathly blade. And the hosts of Iyanden shall go with us.”


A brief interlude to catch up on Commoragh before we get to the last part of the narrative – the demonic invasion of Dark City has wrecked havoc. With Vect abandoning the city, there is no co-ordinated response and many rival Dark Eldar end up fighting each other as much as the demon invaders. Amongst the unchecked violence spilling through the streets, Kheradruakh completes a kill and claims his last perfect skull he needs. Conducting a ritual amongst the gaze of a thousand skulls in his lair, he opens a gateway to the midnight dimension of the Mandrakes. Overnight, his lair becomes the new kingdom of the Decapitator, long-lost monarch of the Mandrakes. His shadow army combines its strength with the hordes of the Haemonculi covens and the Demonic incursion begins to lose momentum in the face of this adversary. Vect, who’s retreated to consolidate power in outlying outposts, is facing alot of pressure from his own court over the nature of the invasion. Lady Malys in particular is doing everything she can to undermine his power. Vect is sparing no expense to try and find Yvraine, who started all this madness in the first place, in order to claim back his authority. Rakarth on the other hand is simultaneously horrified and intrigued by the prospect of Ynnead. A duel edged sword of immortality that can also mean inescapable death...


Back aboard Iyanden, preparations to depart for Klasius are in full swing. Entire ghost halls are brought to full wake as the dead Eldar souls rejoice at the chance to change the future of their race. These newly Reborn Wraiths show far more awareness and responsiveness to the world around them, as if the awakening power of Ynnead is giving them new powers. Some of the Iyandeni are concerned that the craftworld’s defences will be crippled with the majority of its forces leaving, but the Wraiths won’t listen. They want to fight for Yvraine and Ynnead. They are Reborn. They set out into the Webway for the long journey to Klasius, in the Cadian System.

The Webway is a dangerous place in of itself, not to mention the forces that lurk inside it. Ahriman Ahzek has heard of this new awakening of Ynnead, a god that can reverse the effects of life and death. This is of great interest to Ahriman, and his millennia long search for a way to reverse the effects of his Rubric. The presence of Baleful Eyes go unnoticed as they watch the Ynnari host venture through the Webway...
Ahirman springs his ambush. Scarab Occult terminators rip combi-bolter, rotary cannon and hellfyre rockets into the Ynnari from crystal bridge, while return fire bounces harmlessly off their armour. Wraiths charges in, devastating the ranks of Terminators before the bridge collapse and sends them all tumbling into the void. On another flank, Pink Horrors and Lords of Change are dousing the Ynnari forces with mutagenic fire. Where ever the flames touch, insanity is left behind. Howling Banshees suddenly de-age, left as infants looking at their swords in fascination. Swooping Hawks transform into a scintillating rain of scaled serpents. Dire Avengers find their shuriken projectiles reversing course back into them as a swarm of starving piranhas. The Horrors are laughing with unchecked glee. But then the Phoenix Lords arrive, led not by Asurmen but by Jain Zar. She has taken Ynnead into herself, and been Reborn. Jain Zar, Baharroth, Fuegan, Asurmen, Maugan Ra and Karandras sweep through the Tzeentch Demons, completely outclassing them and send them packing. 

In another part of the battle, the sorcerers of the Thousand Sons are laying waste to the Eldar and its only the presence of Eldrad that holds them in check. Kysaduras meets his end at the psychic power of Ahriman, turned into a crude wooden statue stuck eternally in a cry of anguish. The Harlequins manage to push into Ahriman’s forces, but Ahriman points his staff and turns them into dust. Yvraine, the Visarch and the Yncarne rush in, but Ahriman lifts his hands and suddenly the Eldar Triumvirate find themselves adrift - on the outside of the webway! Yvraine can feel eyes on her back and knows that if she turns she will meet the gaze of the Changer of Ways and learn the meaning of madness. The Visarch and the Yncarne are desperately trying to cut through the wall of the webway, to no avail. Yvraine looks down through the wall of the webway instead and sees Ahriman. A sudden flash of insight strikes her and she shouts out, “Ahriman! I have the power you seek! I can restore your brothers!”.
“Why should I believe you?” he replies. Yvraine reaches out with her power, and focuses on the Rubric Marines that accompany Ahriman and ‘reverses the cycle of their existence’. The marines of the XVth Legion suddenly stagger backwards, before rallying around Ahriman with the discipline of the Legiones Astartes. “Ahzek, is that you brother?” they call out, “What in the name of Magnus is going on? Why are we fighting Eldar?” Ahriman is stunned, shaking uncontrollably with emotion. He reaches out and pulls the Eldar Triumvirate back into the Webway. “Now!” Yvraine signals to her companions, as a Wraithknight smashes a hole in the webway and the Yncarne sucks all the newly resurrected Legionaries out into the void. Ahriman screams in denial, chasing off after them on his disc. “The Whispering God gives new life,” Yvraine says watching the Thousand Son forces get overrun, “Just as he takes life away”.

The Thousand Sons are mopped up, but fighting has taken a heavy toll on the Ynnari. Fully a half of their force has been lost, but the Eldar that died have their spirit stones secured. They will live on amongst the surviving Ynnari. The Yncarne and the Phoenix Lords have disappeared though, no sign of them save for a tunnel packed full of discorporating demons. The Ynnari press on, guided by the Harlequins following the laughter of Cegorach. The Laughing God had been impressed by Yvraine’s gambit against Ahriman, and was lending his aide. He’s taken up by the idea of a brother awakening. Khaine is a bit of a bore after all. Some of the Ynnari even begin talking of a small pantheon again – Khaine, Ynnead and Cegorach. Some even muse on an equivalent female trinity – perhaps Iyanna Arienal as the maiden, Yvraine as the mother and Lady Hesperax as the crone? Hmmm...

The reach their destination, the portal gate to Klasius, where a contingent of Imperial unknowingly approach their destiny. Meeting the Ynarri there first though are a contingent of Wyches from the Cult of Strife. Lelith Hesperax has heard from her Harlequin contacts of the Ynnari’s quest, and she’s sent help. If her Wyches report back that the Ynarri are the real deal, then Lelith too will join the ranks of the Reborn. Yvraine is pretty sure Lelith’s motives mainly selfish – immortality and all that – but welcomes them with open arms anyway. Yvraine opens the portal to the ice moon, and they step through... right into the last stand of Saint Celestine, Belisarius Cawl, Inquistor Greyfax and their allies against the dread Black Legion. The surprise arrival of the Ynnari is too much for Abaddon and he’s forced to retreat. The Imperial and the Eldar retreat to safety as well, and a tense stand-off occurs. The Imperials are nervously fingering their weapons as Celestine walks forward. Autarch Melinel of Biel-Tan steps forward as well. Greyfax’s hand goes for her power sword, the Visarch mirroring her and suddenly boltguns and arc rifles and shurikens are drawn and pointed. Melinel knows the humans distrust the Farseers as manipulators and liars, and they view the Dark Eldar as evil incarnate. But perhaps they’ll listen to a Warrior like himself. He entreats them to listen to his words, and bows before Celestine. A moment passes before Celestine strides forward, very deliberately sheathing the Ardent Blade. The air is still tense, but guns are lowered slightly as Greyfax steps forward into the negotiations. The Black Templars look amongst each other, almost daring another to be the first to step forward into action. But the parley holds. 
The Eldar offer an alliance against the Ruinous Powers. Celestine has an idea of where they need to go, and how important it is that they deliver the cargo that Cawl is carrying. The Eldar are the only ones that can get them there, through the Webway. Greyfax is less trusting – they are still lying, manipulative Eldar after all! – but even she agrees that they can always kill them later if necessary, after the mission is completed. Marshal Almaric eventually gets onboard, though he’s still vigilant for the slightest sign of trickery from the Eldar, and orders his Battle Brothers to stand down. History is made as the Eldar and Humans come ‘as close to an understanding as their races had ever attained’. So the two forces – Imperial and Eldar – join as one, and begin the next stage of the journey. 

Their Destination? The Realm of Ultramar. Macragge.
