POOLS OF FATE

Faelthrain glanced over the smooth surface of the crystal pool, it's surface had not been disturbed in centuries, the reflected light shown brightly. The inner sanctum of the Eldar subterranean monolith was encrusted with polished crystal, every wall gleamed with inner life and refracted light. The mere sight of the crystal walls which resembled marble to some extent filled Faelthrain with renewed hope. A smile played about his face as he realised that there are still places where the enemies of the Eldar had not dared enter or could indeed found.

Behind him, five Warlock stood in attention, their weapons ready "heed not hostile thoughts in this temple, young Seers, this place remains untouched" flashed through the minds of the Warlocks.

"Now we must hurry, this place was sanctified by the Eldar of ancient, there are many a psyker out in the void which may heed the call of the homing runes which were activated upon our entry..."
