	After [[Neferata]] has became a vampire and triumphed over her own cousin [[Khalida]] in a duel, she was viewed as Asaph's reincarnation by the public. Under [[W'soran]]'s suggestion, she created her own cult of personality for PR and to harvest blood safely. The cult's influence attracted many Nehekharans to Lahmia. Since the Nehekharans no longer had any direct blessing from their gods due to Nagash breaking the ancient covenant, having a temple and an incarnation of their gods was a comforting tradition.

	The Queen of Rasetra (who was never given a name) was one of the Nehekharans who traveled to the temple, hoping she could get help there to overcome her difficult pregnancy. Since Neferata gave Khemri to the Rasetran King '''Khept-am-shepret''' (due to him being descended from one of Settra's sons) over two centuries ago, this meant if the child of her and the current Rasetran King - '''Aten-Heru''' - was a boy, he would inherit the throne of Khemri... if only he survived the pregnancy.

	The death of Khalida had Neferata realize she'd been living in a cage her entire life (Being trapped inside the female palace ever since she was born and all). Being an immortal blood drinker was no different, as she had to hide her vampiric nature and activities from the public or they'd purge her and everything she'd built on Nagash's works.

	Such is the way of the warhammer's grimdark nature, for every great achievements like technologies or civilizations are ruined just one step before their completion, and results in sending the entire race responsible into the dark age, or worse (this is why the development of the Primaris Project were secretly developed for ten millennia without anyone knowing as to prevent the chaos gods from ruin them; why the Dwarfs would accept an invention only if its blueprint has been stubbornly worked on for multiple generations before a prototype is considered). While The [[Chaos Gods\|big four]] are often responsible for those atrocities in order to [[that guy\|provide themselves some enjoyments]], many were caused by large scale civil war or treasons. In Alcadizzar's case however, he failed simply because did not know the kind of world he lives in.

	There's a popular saying for this:''No good deed goes unpunished'', a common theme in the warhammer franchise. It means those whom were rescued by the good guys were ungrateful. In Alcadizzar's case, what he rescued was was not his people in this case, but rather the culture of Nehekhara, its gods and the land itself from [[Neferata\|poverty, oppression]] and [[Nagash\|death threatening invasion]]. Yet in the land, he lost everything he had rescued just because he wasn't willing to sacrifice himself. Not even his last redeeming act of slaying Nagash could redeem it, for it had results in the rise of Tomb Kings, Alcadizzar's fore-bearers whom were forced to wander the land as rotten undead beings for all eternity. So indeed ''No good deed goes unpunished''.		There's a popular saying for this: '''''No good deed goes unpunished''''', a common theme in the warhammer franchise.

	However, the phase also has a second part:''and let no evil deed go unrewarded'', meaning the villains will not be rewarded for their evil acts, which kind of applied to Nagash for being slaying by Alcadizzar prevent him from controlling the entirely living deads of Nehekhara which he would use for world domination. So at least Alcadizzar did something to prevent evils from destroying this world. Such is the way of the Warhammer world.

	Still, all that promises died the moment Alcadizzar made his decision. Perhaps it was part of Khsar's test? It is a merciless deity who only give challenges and the reward often has to do with what the mortal has gained from his challenges, yet Alcadizzar has failed, which has robbed him of his everything. Could Tzeentch also be involved in his suffering too? afterall, there were a twin tailed comet shining above Alcadizzar. Could this be part of his grand plan to see him suffer? along with the entirely of Nehekhara?		Still, all that promises died the moment Alcadizzar made his decision.

	Dismissing his claim, Nagash began his new ritual by paralyzing and painfully carving arcane symbols into Alcadizzar. Nagash explaining how Alcadizzar was the symbol he needed for this ritual, that Nagash had deliberately made the plague to spare Alcadizzar and had not killed him for that reason. That this spell would channel Nagash's magic, kill the last few people living in Nehekhara and bind them to his will. Nagash capped this off by taunting Alcadizzar that he might see his family again and possibly taking Khalida as his consort if he liked her enough, leaving Alcadizzar helpless to do anything but howl in rage.

	For the ~~entirely~~ of the ritual, Alcadizzar could only kneel, locked in place by paralyzing needles and the power of the great ritual. The great ritual caused a swirling wind tunnel to form in the sky with green light in it's depth, as if it was a gateway to the underworld. The dead Nehekharans had gathered behind the greenlight gate, drawn by the bond of fealty they owed to Alcadizzar in life. Nagash could sense the spirits gathering behind the greenlight, as could Alcadizzar, who only searched for his dead family.

	And just like that, the great ritual summoned up all the undead of Nehekhara. The ancient kings, dead commoners, soldiers. Not even dead wildlife were safe from Nagash's control. Unbeknownst to them, only the occupants of Settra's tomb hadn't risen.		And just like that, the great ritual summoned up all the undead of Nehekhara. The ancient kings, dead commoners, soldiers.
