In regard to the Prophecy of the Hidden Path below, Lassister Mung III speculates that the 'Pallid Moon', 'The stolen seers amassed', and 'blackened shield becomes the sword' likely refer to [[Coheria]] where eldar ritualists were disrupted by the [[Deathwatch]] Strike Team lead by [[Artemis]],{{Fn|4}} during the events of the [[Battle of Port Demesnus]].{{Fn|8}} In addition, 'The warning twice given' likely being first the warning given by [[Eldrad Ulthran]] to [[Fulgrim]] about the [[Ruinous Powers]] and secondly possibly being the warning given by Eldrad during Artemis' disruption of the ritual on Coheria. He postulates that the references to 'the voices' and 'the dead' have a note of being a source for salvation in the prophecy, and that these are likely referring to the [[Ynnari]] death cult. He believes that the 'One shall walk the forked path' is [[Yvraine]], figurehead of the Ynnari cult as is detailed in the records of the [[Fortress of Hera]].{{Fn|4}}
Eldrad and Kysaduras forsaw the Yvraine would be the one to tread the thin strand of fate that lead to the rebirth of their species. Many Eldar would proclaim she is the prophesied Opener of the Seventh Way, nemesis of She who thirsts, who weaves the skeins at the dawn of the Rhana Dandra.{{Fn|2d}}
