Editing Battle of Coheria (section)

==A Mon'Keigh Wrench thrown into the Plans==
Artemis found himself vindicated when he found Eldar signals upon the supposedly abadoned moon. As the Watch Captain readied his forces for deployment, he felt a psychic entreaty from Eldrad enter his mind, with the latter asking for a parlay, to allow the ritual to complete as it would benefit both Eldar and Human alike (which was ''technically'' true).

Unfortunately for Eldrad, Artemis was never in a diplomatic mood, ''especially'' with foul xenos. The Captain ordered the attack, and the Harlequins of the Midnight Sorrow lept to the Farseer's defense.

The battle became a wild and confused melee, not helped by the onset of mists charged with psychic power. The Deathwatch found themselves hard-pressed by the Harlequins, while Eldrad worked to bring the ritual to completion.

Then Artemis threw out a stasis bomb. This action caused a brief bump in the time stream, but it was enough to metaphorically throw the High Farseer's plans veering wildly off-script.

The Death Jester tried one more time to find common cause with Artemis, that this was the greatest chance all races had at striking a great blow against [[Chaos]], but it was for naught. The Watch Captain's hatred for all xenos was too great, and he rebuffed the offer of alliance as easily as he pulled the trigger to end the Death Jester's life.

The ritual reached its crescendo, but with the end of the Death Jester took the Laughing God's blessing with him. As Eldrad struggled to keep the spell from collapsing, a pulse of bright plasma roared in his direction. He let his concentration waver for a brief moment, to divert a small fraction of his power to protect himself, [[Fail|but that was all it took]].

The spell unravelled, and Ynnead's awakening was interrupted. All that gathered psychic energy caused the crystal seers to explode, after which it blazed through planet uncontrollably. Coheria was doomed.

As the Marines boarded their transports to escape, Eldrad staggered through a Webway Gate as well. As he mulled on his failure, he thought he saw a small spark of the consciousness he had sought to awaken fly off, though even he could not say [[Commorragh|where in the galaxy]] [[Yvraine|it would go]].
