→Awakening Ynnead
In wake [[Yvraine]]'s apotheosis and the birth of the [[Yncarne]] and the [[Fracture of Biel-Tan]], in an effort to hasten the "Seventh Path"{{Fn|8a}} and bring the [[Ynnari]] close to the [[Eye of Terror]], Eldrad urged the seer council of [[Ulthwé]] once more into reckless action: to create a hyperspatial bridge in the [[Warp]] through a great ritual connecting their [[Dome of Crystal Seers|Crystal Seers]] to those of [[Biel-Tan]]. Truning them from thier duties in the Infinity Circuit and risking the crystal seers to warp corruption in this way was a heinous taboo, and the bridge would risk [[Daemon]] incursion for every moment it was held open; the Seer Council privately disented but nontheless followed their High Farseer in his gamble.{{Fn|8b}} Opening the passage created a wave of translocation, shunting [[Imperial]] ships light-years away from their destinations and tore open [[Gellar Field]]s, but the Ynnari moved through without incident save a few driven to fear seeing the raw [[Warp]].{{Fn|25}} The cost to [[Ulthwé]] was high: three of Ulthwé's finest [[Farseer]]s turned to crystal during the ritual.{{Fn|10b}}
As [[Yvraine]] thanked the [[Seer Council]] for their help, the council took the moment to instead turn against Eldrad accusing him of misapropriating his role as leader of Ulthwé: for the tunnel he had built and the the farseers turned to crystal, for the wayward arrogance he displayed on [[Coheria]],{{Fn|8b}} sacrificing both an [[Ulthwé]] and [[Saim-Hann]] warhost in the effort{{Fn|25}} and knowingly in the skeins dooming [[Biel-Tan]], and for the perverse use of the [[Dome of Crystal Seers|Crystal Seers]] in both efforts.{{Fn|8b}} Yvraine spoke in his defense, and her Biel-Tani followers urged Ulthwé's aid. The council was interrupted by the appearance of the [[Altansar]]i, who pledged themselves to the Ynnari and urged Ulthwé to join as well but the steadfast refusal fo the Seer Council soured to blows until the [[Harlequins ]] of the [[Masque of the Midnight Sorrow]] appeared with [[Kysaduras|Kysaduras the Anchorite]]. The Ynnari would continue, Kyasduras and a contingent from Ulthwé would join, the seer council would not stop them: Eldrad would join them, now in exile.{{Fn|8b}}
Despite his exile, Eldrad continued to guide the Ynnari and formed his own group known as [[The Exiles]], renegade [[Seer]]s who continue to follow the strands of fate which keep the [[Rhana Dandra]] at bay.{{Fn|10b}} He next appeared on [[Kalisus]] in the [[Cadian System]] as a member of the [[Ynnari]] to guide several Imperial survivors of the destruction of Cadia into the [[Webway]].{{Fn|9}}
