	Despite this, the craftworld is recovering at a rather fast rate, hopeful to return to its former glory. Fitting for its name, really. Yes, Ward wrote some [[noblebright]] in 40K, but even there, Iyanden was still doomed.		Despite this, the craftworld is recovering at a rather fast rate, hopeful to return to its former glory. Fitting for its name, really. Yes, Ward wrote some [[noblebright]] in 40K, but even there, Iyanden was still doomed.

	This growth has been hampered by yet more invasions though. With the spilling of the warp caused by [[Cadia's]] fall, Iyanden was once again besieged by Chaos Forces, this time three Hulks infested with [[Nurgle]] Daemons. Although small in number, these ships were impossible for the Iyanden fleet to destroy, so the craftworld instead decided to focus on terminating the Hulk's engines and fleeing. Doing so came at a high cost, including the death of Yriel (although Yvraine brought him back later because a Nurgle Daemon Prince wanted to screw over Slaanesh). The Ynnari, when leaving, also took so many of their Wraith warriors with them that some of Iyanden's citizens feared the craftworld was being left defenseless.

	Much like every other modern day Craftworld, Iyanden truly came into its own after the Fall of the Aeldari. While many of the other craftworlds tucked their tails and ran away to go hide under their cosmic beds while the [[Slaanesh\|boogie (wo)man]] feasted on their kin, Iyanden was among the first of the Craftworlds to actually pick themselves up and resolve to do something about it. As the first to take steps to rebuild an empire for themselves, the seers of Iyanden were the ones to invent the [[Infinity Circuit]]; it was actually the Phoenix Lord [[maugan ra]] who created the idea of the Infinity Circuit, hence his name "the harvester of souls", and integrate it into the heart of their Craftworld as a simultaneous psychic power source and semi-afterlife for the dead. Though they'd attempted to use this innovation to encourage the other craftworlds to get their heads out of their asses and help them make the galaxy great again, virtually all of them simply accepted the Infinity Circuit tech and kindly told Iyanden to [[Dick\|go fuck themselves]]. The singular exception to this was [[Biel-Tan]], another major craftworld who also thirsted for the conquest and glory of old. The alliance would prove fruitful, with the two Craftworlds almost cleansing Orks entirely from the galactic south, however this wouldn't last, probably due to, though they were highly motivated to reclaim the galaxy for the aeldar, ~~Lyendan~~ was actually honestly good natured and wanting to actually help the galaxy instead of zealotry exterminating life, that would become the hallmark of Beil-Tan.

	Though Biel-Tan and Iyanden both wanted to make a glorious new empire as an end goal, tensions started to rise over the means to reach it. Iyanden was primarily focused on cleansing Chaos influence from the galaxy and actually building up colonies gradually to form the foundations of a new empire while Biel-Tan was beginning to devolve into something of a psychopathic, xenocidal murder-hobo bent on the eradication of ''all'' non-sanctioned life found squatting on any of their (former) worlds. ~~Lyanden~~ would grow increasingly uneasy with the actions of Biel-Tan, and would cut off their alliance, much to the fury of Biel-tan, who considered their former allies to be nothing but a bunch of weak willed traitors.

	Though they had separated it didn't effect ~~Lyanden~~ to much, as they still remained the largest most populated Craftworld, until they would came into contact with a massive [[Tyranid]] Hive Fleet that they grossly underestimated (I mean, they are still [[Eldar]]). ~~Lyanden~~ had grown complacent in their position of power and dismissed Eldrads warnings out of hand, believing that he was just overstating the threat to gain influence.

	They would pay dearly for their pride, and although they eventually drove off the hive fleet, Iyanden suffered countless casualties and lost four out of every five Eldar within Iyanden's halls. This embodiment of a Pyrrhic victory reduced the formerly most populous craftworld to the dramatically underpopulated husk it is today. Such is their dire state that they now rely heavily on the dead to fight for the living, dragging the souls from their peaceful rest only to have them enter a cold unfeeling half-life.

	Iyanden spent the better part of the following millennia drifting around the eastern rim cleansing Chaos wherever it could, assisting the [[Dark Angels]] in dealing with a [[Fallen]]'s Chaos insurgence, protecting a few Exodite worlds and even gaining a few new allies in the minor Malan'tai and Idharae craftworlds. Though many of the surviving Eldar protested initially, it was around this time Iyanden's signature [[Wraithguard]] and [[Wraithlord]]s began to become a commonplace sight within the craftworld's military. Between their efficiency and the simple fact there weren't enough living Eldar to form the rank and file, this grim necessity was quickly accepted.
