Now many of you are wondering why I named my blog as I did and in this story I will explain a little further into the Tau and Eldar alliance. (ok fine nobody is wondering but it helps with the suspension.)
Farseer Felise had not been sleeping well as of late. He dreams were clouded and her visions of the future had started becoming hazy. She consulted Autarch Crypta, and he informed her that a small tendril from one of the tryanid fleet that recently collapsed on the eastern fringe had branched off and was threatening to attack a small world, currently with a small war between the Tau and the Imperium on it's surface. It seemed as they were fighting each other for the rights to it.
This didn't seem like anything big until he mentioned that if the tyranids succeeded in overtaking the world they would have a very fertile breeding ground and a good platform to launch an assault on a neighboring craftworld, and from there could possibly overtake, and assault their craftworld.This didn't bode well for any Eldar in the galaxy. And from that information she saw a vision of what could happen, if she or someone like her didn't get involved. The entire system could collapse, and possible the whole sector into 3 different types of oblivion, all at the same time.
This gave her a headache that she couldn't get rid of for 3 days.
Once she recovered she started scrying into the near future on ways of avoiding total collapse. Several things needed to come into place before she even had a chance to stop it. The first was to stop the tyranids. Her craft world had been the first to detect the approach of the tyranids, and was the first to battle the hive fleet Kraken when it entered the galaxy. Her force had failed but gained a lot of knowledge of the beasts to develop a strategy in defeating them. She searched the sector for alien forces that could slow down, or even possibly stop the the advance of the great menace but could also be manipulated. There was a small warband of Orcs currently battling eachother over petty differences a little ways away, but then saw that the neighboring craftworld had already started riling up the orcs in preparation of the upcoming battle. She looked other places to where she could be of use and suddenly stumbled across a wrinkle in the warp. It looked like the beginning of a rupture that could spawn Chaos in alarming numbers. She realized that the wrinkle was too big to fix, but too small to detect unless someone stumbled on it like she did. Creating a Psychic link with a farseer on the neighboring craftworld, and informed them of the rift.
She then started looking for other wrinkles or rifts in the area, and stumbled across something else. A null void in the warp, surrounding a small moon on the farthest planet in the system. She had only seen one other like it...
Her first reaction was horror, and then came an idea...
