Editing Slaves to Darkness (section)

====Broken Realms====
During the events of broken realms Archaon had tasked the Gaunt Summoners, among them Eater of Tomes, to begin harvesting a rare substance known as Varanite from the Eightpoints. This substance was the realmstone of the Eightpoints itself and was itself highly dangerous, its very presence warping and twisting everything around it (kinda like radioactive material in real world), so much so even demons feared it. Archaon, however, believed the substance could be used to breach the gates of Azyr by weakening the seals on the gate. Using wormlike chaos beasts, he began harvesting the substance. However, an infiltration by Morathi and Sigmars forces led to the destruction of the main mining operation (along with the theft of some of the Varanite by Morathi). Though the chaos forces did get to test some of their new anti-stormcast weapons during the raid.

Following up on this event, Be'lakor began making moves to gain further favour with the gods. He released Stormcast prisoners during the Siege of Anvalgard to stoke up civil wars in the forces of Order. Following this, he witnessed an interesting chain of events. The Seraphons destruction of a Silver Tower (it was a big huge space battle) in a battle he saw that its destruction would lead to a chain reaction of magical backlash that would cause Realmgates to explode and release chaos energy into the realms. Desiring to recreate this event he made an alliance with Lady Olyander (long story, true story) and besieged Vindicarum in Chamon. During the battle the realmgate was destroyed which caused a further set of chain reactions causing other nearby realmgates to collapse darkening the skies with chaos energy and cutting off the Stormcast from Azyr. This led to the decimation of both the city and the Stormhosts of the Celestial Vindicators and Hallowed Knights. Ultimately the siege was ended by the timely arrival of the Khardron Overlords and possibly Grungi. However the damage was already done with Be'lakors storm begining to spread throughout the realms.

Following this Be'lakors star was once again on the rise with the gods and the devastation in Chamon was easily one of the biggest Chaos wins against Sigmar since the Realmgate wars. However things didn't go entirely perfect. Soon after Allarielle enancted her Rite of Life (essentially her version of the Necroquake) which led to the release of the Destruction God Kragnos and the realm of Ghur releasing vast waves of Beast magic throughout the cosmos. The forces of Destruction subsequently energized like never before.
