Eldrad has begun to [[Dome of Crystal Seers|Crystalise]] and spends long days apart from the world of the living within the [[Dome of Crystal SeerSeers]]s, his movements slowing and his body beginning to turn a transparent crystal. Eldrad has forseen retiring his soul to mingle with those of his ancestors, but has denied this fate in order to continue to battle [[Chaos]].{{Fn|19}}
Eldrad's predictions were famously instrumental in the closing of the warp rift above the [[Exodite]] World [[Haran]], which was to be used by the [[Chaos God|Gods of Chaos]] to pour forth their innumerable servants into the [[materium]] and the Eldar [[Webway]]. For many months, massed Eldar forces from all over the galaxy, joined by the mighty [[Phoenix Lord]]s and led by Eldrad, persecuted a great campaign against the forces of [[Chaos]]. Eventually they succeeded in closing the warp rift, but at the cost of many Eldar lives. This lead to the planet being known as Haranshemash, the world of blood and tears.{{Fn|3a}}{{Fn|3b}}
