|align="center"|'''''Since the time of [[The Fall]], our race has been haunted by what we, in our reckless pursuit of hedonistic indulgence, gave birth to. Though our dreams once overturned worlds and quenched suns, we are now but fitful shadows clinging to the edge of existence. All the stars in the sky cannot blot out the hateful glare of the Red Moon's Eye. The birthing place of The Great Enemy pulses with all the malice of a daemon that is dreaming, casting its shadow over all we have ever done and all we ever shall. Every twisted strand of Fate and casting of the Runes leads me to this time, to this place, and it is clear that the final battle awaits me at the ancient [[Crone World]]s. A conflict the likes of which has not been seen since the [[Mon-keigh]] [[Horus Heresy|warred amongst themselves]], and their [[Emperor of Mankind|corpse of a seer]] fell to his [[Horus|traitorous son]], is coming and all my steps lead towards it, no matter that I walk other paths. I see the stars stained red with the blood of the Mon-Keigh and, though their wars do not concern me and I would gladly let them destroy one another, I know that to avoid this fight is to condemn my race to inevitable doom. And though all I see is darkness, I know that I will not flinch from my destiny.'''''

|align=center|'''''It is a sad truth that in order to secure life we must become servants of death. Such are the depths that our race has been pushed to. But through this we are to become like the phoenix, arising anew out of the ashes of our former selves.'''''

|-
|align=center|'''''The Aeldari psyche is a powerful weapon. It can slay a distant foe with a pulse of thought. Like any other, it must be used with skill. Since the coming of the [[Dathedian]] its edges grow sharper than ever before, its grip more perilous to grasp. The slightest misstep can see its wielder and even the reality in which they stand, laid open and bloody.'''''

|align=center|'''''You make a grave error. We work here to fight a Dark God that casts shadows upon both our cultures. Your war is not with us, [[Artemis]] of [[Posul]]. I call parley.

|align=center|'''''You wish to be free of the influence of my kind. You see the [[Armour of Fate|armour]] as a gaoler holding you hostage to our whims. Know this – the fates of Humanity and Aeldari are bound together. Either both species will survive, or neither will. Your [[Emperor]] understands this. There are greater enemies than the [[Primordial Annihilator]]. In the times to come, you will see. The struggle is only beginning. The old war returns. Remember this conversation, and reconsider carefully, on the day realisation comes, whether you wish to stand alone.'''''<br>- Eldrad speaking with the reborn [[Roboute Guilliman]]

|align=center|'''''I have made mistakes. This I must — and do— acknowledge. My efforts have been thwarted by foes. In eagerness and passion I did not see the terrible danger. I pay for my failures with exile, but I do not apologise for my motives. All that I have done has been for the survival of our species. As the galaxy grows ever more perilous, we must become more willing to act decisively. I know that I am.'''''<br>- Eldrad while exiled from Ulthwé
