The Maledictum required a key to unlock it. [[Gabriel Angelos]] and the 3rd Company of the [[Blood Ravens]] wanted to find and destroy it in order to keep it out of the hands of Chaos. In a desperate attempt to guard the key, Farseer Macha called upon the Eldar God [[Kaela Mensha Khaine]]. One of her Eldar warriors became Khaine's avatar. Unfortunately, it was Sindri's plan all along for the Eldar and the Blood Ravens to meet in combat. While the Eldar and the Space Marines distracted each other, Sindri stole the key. To make matters worse, the [[Avatar of Khaine]] was eventually slain by the Space Marines, leaving the Eldar greatly weakened.{{Fn|1}}

Now Sindri commanded the Chaos Space Marines, and for his coup de grace, Sindri acquired the Maledictum.{{Fn|1}} Farseer Macha soon realized that her destiny and Gabriel Angelos's destiny were intertwined, and it was folly to try and avoid it.

Macha again appeared on the world of [[Acheron (World)|Acheron]], leading Eldar forces in an attempt to claim the mysterious [[Spear of Khaine (Weapon)|Spear of Khaine]]. During the battle against the Blood Ravens, Macha was able to negotiate a temporary alliance with [[Gorgutz]]'s [[Ork]]s, and are able to eventually find the Spear's vault. However when it became clear that [[Chaos]] forces risked erupting from the planet, Macha urged [[Gabriel Angelos]] to use a [[Battle Barge]] to destroy Acheron. Macha was able to teleport Gorgutz and Angelos off the world before it was destroyed.{{Fn|2}}
