Battle of Khazhar
The Battle of Khazhar was a battle waged shortly after the formation of the Great Rift.[1]
The war saw a Chaos invasion of three Exodite Worlds known as the Three Sisters. The war was initiated by Human Cultists, which summoned Daemons upon the nearby world of Khazar. Biel-Tan responded in kind and was fortunate enough to be led by three of the Phoenix Lords: Baharroth and Fuegan. During the battle a third Phoenix Lord, Karandras, appeared to cut a bloody swathe through a wedge of Daemonic cavalry. With three Phoenix Lords upon the field, some Eldar thought that the Rhana Dandra was near. But this did not come to pass, and in the weeks that followed the Daemonic hosts and the Cultists that had summoned them were destroyed. The rest of Khazhar's population was killed by a psychic tempest unleashed by a conclave of Biel-Tan Farseers and Warlocks.[1]
In the aftermath of the battle the Three Sisters were saved and the grateful Exodites were entranced by the sight of three Phoenix Lords. Knowing that the hour was near and repaying the debt to Biel-Tan due to their tireless campaign to protect their worlds, the Exodites rode to war alongside the Craftworld.[1]
