Editing Craftworld Arkendar (section)

==Culture==
Creativity dominated the landscape of Arkendar society. Upon reaching maturity, the Eldar took paths that would cultivate creative desire before committing to any other path. The exceptions of this were the first leaders of the Craftworld, such as Jeron and the Hu'lanas. After completing a path, it was common place for Eldar to return to such academic and artistic paths to use their experiences to fruition in expanding upon the great libraries and galleries aboard their home vessel. Out of all the Craftworlds, Arkendar hardly had any of its citizens following the Path of the Outcast. Tragically, this only amplified the horrendous nature of the loss of the Craftworld. As many did not have the means to live outside their home, and those that did were too few to guide the others properly. 


The Arkendari prized their ancient lore, but accepted the works of new artists with rabid anticipation. This did not mean they gave a blanket acceptance of all things created however. One had to work hard for their poetry or songwriting to be recorded in the vaults. If senior Eldar scorned it, it was proposed later scholars would as well. This conception was shattered thankfully by the greatest Eldar storyteller of all time, the wordsmith '''Teleri Ashan'''. His tales of heroism were sensational to the people, but disregarded by the old guard. Only a handful of his stories survived as a result after the Craftworld was immolated.


Human culture was readily absorbed as it grew, but always in a clinical fashion. Observing and ruminating upon the seemingly primitive musings of philosophy and storytelling being explored by the emerging civilizations clawing out of the Age of Strife. Promoted by Teleri Ashan on behalf of Farseer Jeron, Terran culture arriving from the Imperium was wildly regarded as the most advanced of all the human peoples. This added to the belief the Imperium would come to inherit the mantle of the Eldar Empire, coming to bring order against the Necrotyr and the forces of the Primordial.
