==Overview==
During the raid, the Kabal struck a Great Temple dedicated to [[Slaanesh]] and slaughtered thousands of its worshippers worshipers and dragged many of them to their vehicles to be later used for the Archon's amusement. Afterwards the Archon himself, entered the Temple and cut down a [[Daemon]] that was guarding several ancient treasures, which he took. With the Temple ransacked and their holds filled with captives, Tchaeul ordered the Kabal to return to the ancient [[Webway|Warp Gate]], that had brought them to Adraith. Just as it seemed the Kabal had bested the servants of the Dark Prince, a large force of Slaanesh [[Daemons]], [[Daemon Engines]] and [[Chaos Space Marines]] appeared and barred their way to the Warp Gate, as they neared it.{{Fn|1}}
Eager to avenge the defilement of their Temple, the Slaanesh force charged the Kabal, driven by their lust for battle and desire to inflict pain. As Tchaeul made ready to deal with the force ahead of him, a second larger Chaos force emerged behind the Kabal and rapidly advanced upon them. Trapped between the two forces, Tchaeul saw he had no choice, but to escape through the Webway and gave the order to charge the Slaanesh force blocking their way to the Warp Gate. In the desperate battle that followed, few of the Archon's Kabal were able to match his feat in reaching the Warp Gate, indeed it was only through a suicidal attack by a number of his forces that Tchaeul was able to reach the relative safely of [[Commorragh]]. Though as the Archon later said of those who died, ''"That is what they were for."''{{Fn|1}}
