===Collision===
At the end of [[M41]] the [[Great Rift|Dathedian]] tore across the galaxy. Ul-Khari was traveling along the Gilead System's edge, when a [[warp rift]] was created around the Gilead System due to the Great Rift's violent sundering of [[realspace]]. Tthe The rift ejected a rogue planet directly at the craftworld. A frozen hellscape of a [[Hive World]] was hurled directly in the path of the craftworld. With no time to evade, the aeldari vessel crash-landed on the warp-forsaken world [[Trollius]], a long-dead world haunted by unknown terrors.{{Fn|1a}}{{Fn|1b}} The tendrils of the Weaver of Fate appear to have arranged the collision, for unknown purposes.{{Fn|3a}}
Nearly half of the Craftworld was destroyed in the crash or entombed in ice, other areas are rendering derelict and unusable. The loss of many food cultivation facilities, workshops, and archives has rendered the craftworld significantly short of critical resources. Other areas lost includes those that housed the [[Aspect Shrine]]s of the [[Howling Banshee]]s and [[Fire Dragon]]s. Deciding whether to allocate energy and resources into producing food or arm and ammunition requires constant balancing.{{Fn|2c}}
Although Craftworld Ul-Khari rarely summons their Wraithguard from slumber, their wraithbone groves are obsessively tended, and many of these survived the devestationdevastation. Ul-Khari has been forced to call on many of these [[Wraith Construct]]s to stand guard and defend the crashed vessel. The Great Rift has effected their [[Wraithsightwraithsight]] and reliability. There are rumours that those few amongst the [[Varonius Floatilla]] would occasionally destroy their human ally's [[Sanctioned Psyker]]s. Those on Trollius itself sometimes pause to stare motionlessly up at Ostia for days at a time, lost in a trance.{{Fn|1e}}
