	Katakros is fixated on his campaign in the Eightpoints, but still keeping tabs on what's happened elsewhere, calling out Neferata's power play when she criticized Olynder working with Be'lakor. Katakros himself didn't criticize Olynder's actions because they hurt Sigmar's plan, with Neferata accusing Katakros of still being salty over his first loss to Sigmar. He's also starting a side project to seize control of Ghur, partly out of nostalgia, partly to distract himself from the side effects of the soul wound Archaon gave him.

			The fight against Chaos is taking its toll on the Arx Terminus. While it has repelled nearly every assault, this means that it needs repairs regularly. Also meaning the Mortisans don't have time to purify the taint of Chaos from the bones they use. As a result, parts of the Arx Terminus have become corrupted by Chaos, with Bonereapers hearing strange voices and chambers randomly sealing themselves shut. These areas are quarantined from the rest, with regiments of Mortek Guard watching them in case something like a horde of daemons emerges. The one failure was when Archaon led an army that managed to break through the Arx Terminus and enter the Endgate, dealing significant damage to Gothizzar before being repelled. Whether this was a statement from Archaon or the Bonereapers managed to push him back is unknown.

	Apart from that, we get the thoughts of Mannfred and Neferata on Arkhan's disappearance. Mannfred gloats about it, but is certain Arkhan will return (and plans to rub the defeat in his face when he does). Neferata doesn't comment much, except to subtly say that she "almost" missed him compared to a killjoy like Katakros (tsundere much?).

	Then Nagash personally arrived in Hysh to finish what Arkhan started and kill Avalenor in revenge, but was forced to do battle against Teclis, with each god’s respective army doing battle beneath their feet. Though both gods were roughly equal in magical might, Nagash proved to be a superior combatant and marked Teclis with his blade and death magic. But Teclis got the last laugh due to some unexpected allies in Alarielle and several Luminarks, culminating in the destruction of Nagash's nine books, Nagash himself having his body broken and his soul imprisoned in Nagashizzar and Teclis personally undoing the Necroquake.

	When Teclis and Nagash decided to throw hands, the Bonereapers saw some particularly grueling setbacks. Not content with making the entire Death faction a bunch of jobbers for the Lumineth, the Bonereapers got worfed like a 40k Avatar of [[Khaine]] fighting Ultramarines, so bad it's as if the author had some bad experiences playing against them on the tabletop.

	Teclis confronted Nagash after repelling a Nighthaunt attack on Settler's Gain, and unsuccessfully tried to threaten him into backing down. Then Teclis enacted a master plan seeking to end the Soul Wars and make Nagash pay for the Necroquake. To start, he personally led a Lumineth army riding [[~~What~~\|flying mountains]] on an invasion of Shyish to destroy three monuments in a symbolic victory to show people the Bonereapers weren't unbeatable. Despite fierce resistance, and a waring from Vokmortion, the Lumineth were able to match the Bonereapers in battle before destroying the monuments and <s>fleeing</s> going back to Hysh.

	The Bonereapers replenished their losses with the dead of both sides and sought revenge. While undead armies led by Neferata and Mannfred invaded Chamon and Ghyran respectively, a Null Myriad army led by Arkhan himself invaded Hysh and press-ganged the local Mordant Courts to help <s>give the Lumineth a right proper boning</s> conquer Ymetrica by turning a realmgate in Hysh into a mini-Shyish Nadir. But a Lumineth army repelled Arkhan's first attempt, forcing him to flee and try again with a second realmgate on the edge of Hysh. Not only was this second attempt thwarted by a Lumineth army led by a vengeful Eltharion, the Bonereapers were wiped out, with Arkhan himself punted off the edge of Hysh by the Light of Eltharion and disappearing. The Lumineth burned their dead to limit the Ossiarch’s recruitment, forcing them to harvest the bones of their ghoul allies, causing more trouble as the Flesh-Eater Courts fought back.

	Likely inspired by the [[Stormcast Eternals]] (at the meta level. In-universe Nagash made them long before Sigmar had his Stormcast idea), the Bonereapers are not mere skeletons given life by necromancy, but massive constructs of bone and countless warrior souls, making them all look impressively robust for undead. Since the Soulblight Gravelords are the mainstay, the Nighthaunt are the shock troops and the Flesh-Eater Courts are completely insane, these buff bone bruisers are the elite vanguard of the Grand Alliance. Given their themes of bones, undead constructs, priest characters, architect characters and skull-throwing catapults... they're currently the closest thing we've got to [[Tomb Kings]] in AoS.
