They came in trickles to the world at first then in the thousends their world had been all but destroyed behind them, and they where the only survivors out of Billions. Fifteen Million mostly Children and those too old to fight had escaped. Their Mothers and Fathers having been lost when the Humans, on the verge of defeat had destroyed their world. Exterminatus, the dark face of the bitter fighting that often occured in depths of space, and one of the many reasons the Eldar had such a hatred for aliens.
Not to say that the Eldar where innocent of such acts indeed the council was plotting what it saw as fitting retribution, but that is unimportent right here and now, for now the Exodites had fled to a world first found by Humans, and a sector of space that teemed with a multitude of nations. However they came to one world that stood alone, untouched as of yet, and indeed unvisited except by a lone Farseer. Now they came to rest and live as they had always lived. Behind them came a train of Gems to rest on this world, after the Fire of Exterminatus had died, they had been recovered, although those that had gone to gather them had risked their own lives.
This was not an act of greed but of simple preservation for the gems contained the Souls of their world. A few scattered warriors now rode escort for the Tribes a few warriors that had escaped death.
In the depths of space meanwhile a treaty was signed and the Kionash of Tor Yvresse, and the Exodites of a dead world joined as one people. This however was not subjucation of the defeated Exodites but a true alliance. As the Rai'Star of the Exodites joined the Council as a full member, the first none Seer to have done so in it's history. In time the full details of this treaty would be annouced, in short however it meant one certain thing to the Eldar... A begining as something changed, the Craftworlders had first established a colony on Mars now they had built a second... and the Kionash understaood one simple fact from this they where now, an Empire.
