Massacre on Sarlinn's World

From Warhammer 40k - Lexicanum

The Massacre on Sarlinn's World began, when an Eldar Craftworld's forces invaded the Chaos-held Sarlinn's World.[1]

Despite having the element of surprise though, the Eldar found themselves outnumbered and outmaneuvered, which forced them to retreat back to the Webway Portal they had emerged from. However the forces of Chaos would not let the Eldar escape easily and barely a tenth of the Craftworld's forces engaged in the campaign returned to their home. They also had little chance to gather the Spirit Stones of their fallen and many were left behind on the Chaos world. The heavy losses suffered in the battle, was a mortal blow to the Craftworld's already diminished population and it is unlikely the Craftworld will be able to recover. The awareness of this irreplaceable loss, looms over the Craftworld's remaining Eldar like a close dark cloud, oppressing their thoughts and their spirits. In their tunnel vision, all the Eldar can see is a slow, inevitable decline for their Craftworld. No more laughter, no more life, no more hope.[1]
