Crone World
The Crone Worlds are the remnants of the worlds of the Eldar Empire overwhelmed by the Eye of Terror during the Fall, and horrifically altered.[14] These original homeworlds first colonised by the Eldar as they rose to power tens of thousands of years ago, now the lasting remnants of the greatest doom to ever befall the Aeldari – it is for Morai-Heg the Crone god of fate that the Crone worlds are thus named.[15a]
History
The region was overtaken by the Eye of Terror[14], its worlds consumed by Chaos but not destroyed, instead turned into nightmarish realities in limbo between Real Space and The Warp[14]. Crone Worlds seem to be synonymous with Daemon Worlds. They are now the domains of the Ruinous Powers and their slaves along with the Chaotic Eldar[2a] and their ab-strains[13] trapped there since the Fall.
These worlds remain vitally important to the survival of the Asuryani as they are last remaining source of Spirit Stones and other valuable artefacts of the Eldar Empire. However, journeys to the Crone Worlds constitute entering the most dangerous areas of the galaxy, and many who go to the Crone Worlds never return. Besides the spirit stones, and still exist in the Crone Worlds.[14] Fabius Bile is known to have made a base of operations in the Crone Worlds after narrowly escaping the Salamanders Chapter.[1]
