It was created by the Aeldari deity Cegorach, better known as the Laughing God, though for what purposes the god created this repository can only be guessed. The Black Library is the only source of the Aeldari's knowledge concerning Chaos that has remained untouched. Warhammer 40K Darktide Review - Left To Shred As a result, only the Solitaires of the Aeldari Harlequin troupes are allowed to come and go freely, although some say that a Human, perhaps an Inquisitor, has also been allowed to do so. The immature, who are still vulnerable to the promises and seductions of Chaos, find that they are unable to pass through its gateway. The library defends itself against the weak and those who would misuse its knowledge by refusing entry to all except those who have acknowledged and tempered the Chaos within themselves. The existence of the Black Library is known to only a few and entry is allowed to even fewer individuals. The forbidden lore of the Black Library describes the blandishments, influences, forms, creatures, perils, promises, and horrors of Chaos. In a hidden location, some say at the very centre of the Webway - the Aeldari's network of stable interdimensional tunnels that crosses the galaxy - rests the tomes, books, scrolls, and codices describing the Aeldari's complete and extensive knowledge of the Warp. Yet a single source of Aeldari knowledge has remained untouched and inviolate since the Fall. The Aeldari know more of Chaos than Humanity ever will, and still more was lost when the Aeldari Empire collapsed during the Fall. The Black Library is governed by a body of the wisest Asuryani Farseers drawn from all of the craftworlds known as the "Black Council." The Black Council is the closest the fractious Aeldari species has come to an advisory body that looks after the interests of the entire race. The Aeldari craftworlds became the only surviving sources of their ancient knowledge of sorcery and the Ruinous Powers of Chaos after the Fall of that species to the birth of Slaanesh.Īs the craftwords have drifted apart, this knowledge has consequently become fragmented, and as some craftworlds have become lost over the millennia, more precious Aeldari knowledge has been lost with them. The Black Library of Chaos, also known simply as the Black Library, is the secret Asuryani craftworld that serves as the Aeldari's repository of forbidden lore concerning the Ruinous Powers that exists somewhere within the labyrinthine passages of the Webway.
