Lorgar - Shanriatha: But Lorgar's enlightenment was not yet done. Having heard the report of what the Astartes of the World Bearers' Chapter of the Serrated Sun had experienced within the Eye, Lorgar was determined to meet with the Gods of the Primordial Truth himself. Forty-three Terran years before the Drop Site Massacre on Isstvan V, Lorgar took flight on a Stormbird gunship into the Eye and stepped onto the surface of the Crone World of Shanriatha located within what would one day become known as the Eye of Terror.He was accompanied in his search by his Daemonic guide Ingethel the Ascended. The creature inquired why the primarch had chosen this world to investigate. Lorgar replied that he had seen the ruins from orbit, a city drowned in the rust red dust plains that reminded him of the surface of Mars. The primarch wanted to known what kind of creature Ingethel was, to which the Daemon Prince replied that Lorgar knew what she was.But to Lorgar's psychically attuned eyes, he could see nothing in the core of the creature's being -- a creature incarnated without a soul. Ingethel explained, in the realm of flesh, sentient life was born ensouled. In the realm of raw thought, the Immaterium, all life was soulless. Both were alive -- the Born and the Neverborn, on both sides of reality -- and were destined for symbiosis and union if the Chaos Gods had their way.The world that they now stood upon in the Eye of Terror was where the realm of flesh and spirit met. Physical laws meant nothing there. There was no limit on what might be. That was the true nature of Chaos -- endless possibility.Ingethel informed Lorgar that he was unique amongst the Anathema's sons, for all of his brothers were whole. Only he was lost, for his brothers had mastered their gifts since birth. Lorgar's own mastery would only come with understanding, but when it did he would have the strength to reshape entire worlds on a whim.Lorgar then inquired as to what was the name of the world that they now stood upon. Ingethel told him that the "soulbroken" (the Aeldari) called it "Ycressa" before the Fall. After the birth of Slaanesh, it was named "Shanriatha," which in the Aeldari Lexicon meant, "never forgotten."Ingethel explained to Lorgar the reason the Aeldari were called the "soulbroken" amongst the servants of Chaos had to do with the birth of the Lord of Pleasure. In her genesis, brought about by the Aeldari's worship, she claimed the spirits of the entire race.When any mortal dies, its spirit drifts into the Warp. But when the Aeldari die, they are pulled right into the maw of the goddess they betrayed. She thirsts for them, for they are her children. She drinks their souls into herself as they die.Lorgar commented that what Ingethel mentioned matched the teachings of the Old Faith of Colchis, for it was said that upon death, the unshackled souls drifted into the Infinite, to be judged by thirsting gods. Ingethel replied that the Primordial Truth was deeply embedded in humanity's blood.All of Mankind knew innately that something awaited them after death. The faithful, the loyal, would be judged kindly and reside in their gods' demesnes within the Realm of Chaos, while the faithless, the unbelievers, would drift throughout the Aether, serving as prey for the Neverborn. Though the Immaterium represented the Heaven promised in most human faiths across history, it was also the same Hell humanity had always feared.As the Daemon guide and the primarch moved on with their exploration they came upon vast ruins. These ruins were not the remains of a city, but the remnants of Craftworld Zu'lasa, which had attempted to flee the birth of Slaanesh, but escaped too late and fell from the void to bury itself in the world's lifeless dust.Two hundred thousand souls within the Craftworld had died at the moment of Slaanesh's birth. Unguided, with madness rampant in its own living Infinity Circuit core as the Prince of Pleasure devoured its souls, the Craftworld had fallen.Investigating further, Lorgar sensed something within the ruins. As he inspected the ruins of the massive spacecraft with his psychic probing, he felt something stir beneath, burrowing upward. Something broke the surface, in what first appeared to the shocked primarch as the statue of a dying god that dragged itself from a grave of scarlet soil.Ingethel informed Lorgar that it was an Avatar of Kaela Mensha Khaine, the former war god of the Aeldari. Ingethel wanted Lorgar to understand the abject lesson -- that even a divine being could fall, intimating that the same could happen to Lorgar's God-Emperor and any gods that sought to deny or oppose the Primordial Truth.Almost pitying the pathetic creature, Lorgar strode forth and raised his Crozius mace and then struck the creature, ending its painful existence. Lorgar then demanded to know what the future held. The Daemon informed the primarch that it would end as it had begun -- in war. Undaunted, Lorgar ordered the Daemon to show him.
