The Craftworld is also known for its vicious war against the [[Necron]]s, begun when the [[Seer Council]] of Alaitoc saw the rise of [[Imotekh the Stormlord]] as a fulfilment of the Prophecy of Doom Arising from the [[Book of Mournful Night]]. Alaitoc eventually acquired an ancient crystalline map of every [[Tomb World]] in the [[Galaxy]], though now only fragments remain. This map is used in conjunction with their network of Outcasts and [[Exodite]]s to orchestrate a battle against the Necron menace.{{Fn|10}}
Despite the growth of [[Chaos]] following the [[Great Rift]], Alaitoc continues to believe that the [[Necron]]s are the greatest threat to the galaxy. Alaitoc's foremost [[Farseer]], [[Ylocu Shaie]], sung of a sea of dead stars at the climax of a geometric disaster related to the Necrons. As such, they are closely aligned with the fiercely anti-Necron [[Masque of the Frozen Stars]].{{Fn|11}}
