Summoned by that battlecry the Exarchs gather at the gates of the Avatar's throne room. They bring the Young King, an Aspect Warrior chosen by the Farseers, who stands naked and painted with the blood runes of Kaela Mensha Khaine.

In his right hand they place the Suin Daellae - the weapon of the Avatar, whose Eldar name means the Wailing Doom. In her left hand they place the Cup of Criel, the cup brimming with her own blood. A long chant is begun whilst from within the god's chamber comes the enraged crackling of burning metal and raging furnace.



As the ceremony grows more intense so the Bloody-handed God stirs into life

Into the throne room the Young King walks to her destruction, and the bronze gate closes behind her.

For several hours the furnace rumbles and booms...

At last there is an inhuman roar of agony and a psychic shock wave blows apart the bronze door of the Avatar's shrine. Amidst the torrent of power the Avatar walks from his throne into the Craftworld.



As to the fate of the Young King not even the Farseers will speak....D:
