===Introspections Upon Perfection===
{{QuoteBox|quote=The young do not desire the discipline of the Path, but rather their curiosity drives them to try every fruit from the tree. Thus it is that so many take the Path of Wandering or the Path of Damnation in their first years of adulthood, and so the great tragedy of our kind is played out again and again as the number of our people shrink from generation to generation.{{Fn|5}}}}
{{QuoteBox|quote=When war calls we all ought to answer. Would that it were not this way, but for our people to survive we must tread the darkest of paths. Yet I regret that many of our kin have grown to see such obligations not as a duty, but a joy. I do note love the blade for its form or its keen edge, but only for that which it defends. Must we pay for existence with our very souls? {{Fn|6}}}}
===The Prophecy of the Hidden Path{{Fn|4}}===
{{QuoteBox|quote=
Like ghouls in the dark,<br>
the wicked ones gather,<br>
Drawn to a tragedy unfolding.<br>
Warnings twice-given across the<br>
span of time,<br>
Stifled by pride and by hatred.<br>
The strands of fate shall grow taut<br>
At the dawn of the [[Rhana Dandra]].<br>
The death of all Eldar looms large,<br>
But fate can be twisted, even broken.<br>
One shall walk the forked path,<br>
A threefold truth to weave the skein:<br>
Nemesis of She Who Thirsts,<br>
Opener of the Seventh Way.<br>
Long-dead souls gather behind<br>
The Rebirth of Ancient Days,<br>
Drinking, but not consuming;<br>
Taking in, but giving new life.<br>
In the heat of Khaine’s wrath,<br>
Our sorrow will be reforged.<br>
Our destiny becomes a weapon<br>
Fit to slay a goddess.<br>
The pallid moon of unnumbered voices<br>
Shall turn into a sun<br>
Lit by the flames of unjust wars,<br>
A crucible of souls and dreams.<br>
The stolen seers, amassed,<br>
Gather unto them the Dead.<br>
Legion, they drift within the sands,<br>
Their voices raised as one.<br>
Lambent glow becomes shining beacon,<br>
Death knell rises to herald’s cry.<br>
The blackened shield becomes the sword,<br>
The yawning void becomes the path.<br>
The God of the Dead calls out.<br>
A whisper so fierce and strong<br>
It shall hush the stars forever.<br>
