Side Chapter: Eldrad Path

Craftworld Ulthwé

Ever Since the Second Light Briefly Shone in the Kaurava System, the warp became calm, that Eldrad Ulthran, the Greatest Farseer of the Eldar Race, He Took a Gamble to peer in the Veil of the Warp, where He Faced on the Crossroads for his Race, He entered One of the Path, One that is A Road to Certain Doom as He Saw Craftworlds Burned... Shattered to Dust, the Imperial Flag Is Burned to the Ground and Tau Empire were Crucified to the Point that their Planets is only filled with Crucifixion bodies of the T'au, Screams of his People among the Masses of Sentient Life Echoed the Stars, of Pain and Suffering and Pleas for anybody to save them, Eldars Gods Lay Dead, Demons And Devils Roam the Materium, Enjoying the Blood and Flesh of the Countless Species as they Placed their Sacrifices Foul and Depraved to Eldrad, Even The Chaos Gods that Feared among the Galaxy Bowed before the being, not of Respect, But in Fear, to much of Eldrad surprised that they worshipped A God From the Outside, A Being that is In guise of a Human... But not a Human, his Features was Terrifying as the Being Face Is covered by a Darkest Void that threaten to Consumed everything and Its Rage Slowly Breaking the Fabric of Reality, the Being Noticed His Incursion to the Warp, He Slowly Approach Eldrad, each Step he took towards Eldrad, The Warp Screamed and Slowly Blacken the Purple Warp... First Time that Eldrad Knew that There was Someone that was even more Scarier than The One they Birth, Slaanesh, He tried to Escape, but he stood frozen, As he Stared at the Being Face He Could See Countless versions of Him Dying In all sorts of Manner in the Void, nearly driving him mad... He heard a Imperial Bolter as it Rammed Smacked Directly into the Being Body as Blast it Away from Eldrad Place, the Shell Slowly Sunk into the Body, like its endless mud and Sludge comprise of the Entity and made a Muffled explosion, Eldrad looked From where the Bolter Came From and Two Giant Men Clad in Blue and Green, One whose Head Held a Olive Wreath, Bearing the Omega Sign on His Pauldrons... Bearing the Emperor Sword that Eldrad Knew, And Another one whose Power Sword and Armed With a Shield, The Man In Blue Snarled at the Entity with his eyes were Bloodshot, Teeth Almost Snapping...

'Primachs' Eldrad Thought to himself as he Escape to a Safe Distance away from the Battle

"Begone Foul Beast!" The Ultramarine Roared in Anger Rushed Forward, Swinging the Emperor Sword with such a Force to the Being, Hoping that the Burning Flames of his Father Sword to Banish or Slay whatever this Monster Came From

As the Sword merely Touched The Being as if Mocking the Primarch he Grew into the Size of Guilliman and Kicked him, Sending across the Field, The Flames on the sword Suddenly Went Out... Much of Guilliman Dismay, that His Father Sword Failed Him at this Critical Moment, He was Rushed aside By the Man In Green as he took his turn to Fight this Monstrosity, Sword against Sword, The Primarch in Green took the initiative at the start, Slowly started Losing Ground, He Held His Shield against the Flurry of Slashes until the Shield Began to Crack, to Much of His Horror as the Shield That Took Angron Hits at the Height of his Power given by the Warp, began to Shatter, and He was Stabbed By Countless Shadows that Came Under the Entity legs... the Lion Fell down...

"Brother Noo!" as Guilliman Rushed in Once more, with Fury clouded his judgement, Ignoring the logical reason to Escape and Regroup... But how to regroup? Terra is Already destroyed... His plans of Primaris failed, corrupted wholely by the Murder curse, the Indomitus Crusade Failed, and even now His Chapters is Already being destroyed, His Genesons..... His Realm is Destroyed...

He began a desperate fight against a Entity that destroyed Countless Version of Him, Countless Galaxies, and What Effort did Guilliman done? A Scratch, The Being was Amused of this Efforts, He Rewarded Guilliman, the Only Damnable Thing to Guilliman Psyche, He Revived The Lion to Fight Guilliman, Lion Now Covered With Whisp of Darkness that Invaded The Body of the Dead Primarch... He stood up, Grabbed his Sword and Began to Attack Guilliman...

"Brother, Don't Do This" as Guilliman Parry His Brother Sword Hoping to Speak Reason to him..

"Die!! Enemy of the Emperor!" As Lion is Blinded By the Enemy Behind Him... Seeing his Brother as the Enemy he Sought to destroy...

Guilliman Parried Lion Attacks, until a Series Shadow Spikes Came out of Lion Feet and Stabbed Guilliman Chest shredding him from the Inside... Guilliman Fell down as the Armor of Fate is Sounding Warnings that his Life support Systems is Failing Slowly Dying,

"I failed the Imperium Once more" as Guilliman Breathed his last...

The Being Smirked at Guilliman Demise and Released Lion from his Control, And The First thing that Lion Saw was his Sword Dripped with Guilliman Blood... Various Emotions Confusion, Rage, Sadness Swirl Around the Lion...

*Clapping*

"How does it Feel to Murder your Own Brother? Your Final Words to your Brother, I believe, That he was the Enemy of the Imperium? Ironic isn't it? For One Who Value his Loyalty above all, his blood on your hand is Just Reward?" The Being Mocked the Lion whose Silence was Deafening...

Lion Aimed his Sword At the Entity, Only his Sword Stopped At the Entity Face ... His Body turned into a Cloud of Dark Clouds...

"I Revived you, Don't you think that I can take it away? Now Where is That Eldar? Oh? There you are" as the the Being Noticed Eldrad, He Slowly walked to the Eldar, growing in size almost wanting to Swallow him whole, As if knowing that Eldrad Couldn't run, Just as he was about to Grab Eldrad, Eldrad was Whisked away from his Grasp...

"Even Now System... You Still Defy me?" As the Chaotic Being Stared at the Stars.

Eldrad Once again was On the Crossroads on the warp, Still Purple to Eldrad Relief... He Met his Older Self? looking more dejected and tired... as the Older Self is Staring at the Crossroads

"It would Seem, You Saw Our Futures... Sad is it not?" the Aged Eldrad turned Look at his younger self

"What is that Thing? Why is it the Future is Different from what I Predicted?" Eldrad wanted to ask much Questions, But he was Stopped by his Older Self...

"That Being is us a Nameless one... he is willing to destroy our Universe... You saw it didn't you? How You Died in Many Ways? Those are real..." As the Old Eldrad Sadly Replied

"But We Can Do this Without Humans!"

"A Single race? that is What you Think..." As the Old Version tapped his hand to Eldrad head, Showing Countless Scenarios to Eldrad Mind, A United Eldar Coalition Lost Against him, the Necron their ancient enemy, United their Pantheon, Empires and used the C'Tan shards and still Lost against him, The Imperium under the Guilliman that He saw Before Fought Void and Failed, and T'au? Is that a Joke?

"We have to Be United, we shall stand a chance, Younger Self... and Time is Running Out..."

"How is it possible to Be United? Is it Guilliman? The Emperor?"

"No... Him" as the Eldrad was Led to a Path... a Brighter Path...

and on this Path, He stood on a Land of Greenery, a Peaceful World, and he Looked about and saw a Forest and A Lake was near the Vicinity and a Mountain in the distance, He Saw a Red hair Human went By him as Sparks of Psyker Energy Emanated from his Body, and he held a book of intricate Gears and wore a Worn down Astra Militarum Uniform...

A Eagle Flying towards The Human, Bore the Aquila symbol On its Chest, wounded, Weary of Bearing it, It Came to the Human as it Landed on his Arms, As the Human Chuckled, as he Tended the Eagle Wounds....

Eldrad Heard Rumbling around him, As a Green Salamander burst out of the Ground, Roaring in its Glory, A Silent Lion And a White Cheetah Came from the Forest... a Raven and a Dove Perched on the Human Shoulders, A Winter Wolf Howled made its entrance from the Mountain as it Rushed to the Group,... a Silver Armadillo Rushed out in fear and a Golden Bear was Chasing it...

Eldrad was Curious was of this Event, Until Greater Rumbling in the Ground was heard, A Black Hydra Rose from the Lake, While the Falcon whose existence almost faded, an Owl that is Dyed in Black and a Black Phoenix mutated beyond recognition.... Stared at the Human From the Shadows

The Human Raised his Hands and Said...

"You are not forgiven... but you could redeem yourself and Time will be the judgement for your sins" as the Tainted animals slowly Turned into their True Colors, as The Silver Falcon Screeched and The Crimson Owl Hooted, and the Purple Phoenix Chirp and Joined in the Human Company... the Emerald Hydra In its Multiple Heads Roared in delight...

and another Vision

Much of Eldrad Confusion, When He Saw Isha Guarding a Giant Tree that held a Butterfly, the Human approach her.... Eldrad Dismay of this Events...

"Is it done Miss Isha?"

"He will recover in due time..."

"Thank you...For healing Him"

The Red Hair Human Now Stared at the Eagle.. and Release the Eagle

"You are never truly alone...go and Fulfil your mission...Your brothers always will be by your side..."

The Eagle Nodded, with Regained Vigor, it Flew to the Skies once more... leaving the Human and the Animals Behind...

Eldrad Return to Reality, Sweating of the Vision he saw, a Sapling was there waiting for him... He stumbled across his Messy Room and Crashed the on the Table that held it

"Farseer, Did anything happen?"

"Nevermind, I have Some business to do..."

Meanwhile...

Alex was finished Smashing another Ork outpost, Burning the Ork that was in charge in this base and Set it on Fire... He Left in haste with his group to reach the Refugees Convoy,

A Group of Crimson colored Space Marines was observing the Human that lead the Ragtag group...

(???): Brother.... We Better inform Force Commander Boreale about this.... Incident...

As the Astartes Watched from the shadows as the Person in Question, Loaded the IG Primaris to Drop pods and Launch it to Location unknown to them... and watched Alex Drive off in the distance....
