→Anaris
==Anaris==
[[Vaul]] reforged the final sword, the one that he had failed to finish for [[Khaine]], the greatest of all, and called it [[Anaris]](lit. "Dawnlight"). Armed with this weapon, Vaul strode forth to do battle with Khaine. It was a long, hard-fought struggle, but even with Anaris, Vaul was no match for the war god. Khaine cast down Vaul, maiming the smith, and bound Vaul to his own anvil.
However, the falcon, '''Faolchú''', consort of the Great Hawk, who had fought for Vaul, took the sword Anaris and delivered it straight to [[Eldanesh]], greatest of the mortal [[Eldar]]. With Anaris in hand, Eldanesh of the Red Moon took up the fight and faced Khaine in single combat. Eldanesh fought well, but in the end he too was defeated by Khaine, his body crushed by the god of war. As Khaine slew Eldanesh his hands began to drip with red blood. Forever after he was to become known as Khaela Mensha Khaine, which means "Khain the Bloody-Handed". [[Asuryan]] had seen enough of the slaughter and proclaimed the war over. Khaine had had his vengeance and left the field satisfied.
