→Night of Revelations
===Night of Revelations===
On what would become known as the [[Night of Revelations]], a grand gladiatorial spectacle was held in the Lelith's [[Crucibael]]. Many fought that night before the main event, a group of [[Sslyth]] [[mercenaries]], dozens of wyches against [[Space Marine]]s armed only with knives, and eventually the hordes of [[Tyranid]]s cloned from those recovered from during the [[Battle for of Valedor]]. The main spectacle was a long anticipated match between the Daughter of Shades, Yvraine, and the master of the arena Lelith Hesperax herself. The cost of securing a seat was high, drawing no insignificant crowd, even [[Harlequin]]s came to see Yvraine and her bloodbrides fight.{{Fn|2c}}
After a wide gamut of bloodshed had the crowd baying for more, Lelith and Yvraine would eventually enter single combat. The master of the arena decapitating a [[Lictor]] the Daughter of Shades was dueling, nearly killing Yvraine in this opening strike. Lelith would make a show of their duel, goading Yvraine's fury. After toying with Yvraine for a time, Lelith would cut off Yvraine's left hand and leave her with a deep stab wound to the gut before departing to provide other bloody entertainment in the eclectic arena full of blood, corpses, and enemies.{{Fn|2c}}
