The Tragedy of Eldanesh is the story of the first Eldar, born from the very gods themselves, and blessed with their gifts, he led the early Eldari peoples to glory across the stars. But his conflict with the war god Khaine sparked a war between the gods which brought the young Eldar civilisation to its knees.

Some aspects of the story have been dramatized, but there are several conflicting bits of lore about this story, so I chose some of the parts which fit together best for this story format.
I know this is an Attenborough channel but DAMN i would love to hear some John Hurt narrating 40k again !!!! The Ultramarine movie was garbage but the first 2 mins, man, Legendary !!
where the necrons enter during the wars in heaven?
Very Cool
we need more of this
It's not a story the Tau would tell you.
100k very soon bro, just you watch. Keep this up
I'm hoping they finish the Birth of Slaneesh and The God Emperor's back story!
You’ve combined my favourite sci-fi with my favourite naturalist/all round awesome fauna friend.
Subbing for more!
With how the warp entities develop. you would think the Eldar who are an artificial race themselves would be more secular. The Eldar, are probably older than their Warp Gods.😊
I'm in love with these. Thank you .
Fantastic video! It boggles my mind to consider all the various gods and how they fit into the grim universe.
Id love to learn more about the god emperor
In the end, the Eldar did in fact brought Khaine & the rest of their gods' downfall. And though forever dripping of the blood of the 1st Eldar, it is those bloody hands that ensure that what's left of their race survives the horrors of the Galaxy.
Where do the old ones fit into this? The elder pantheon is very real as they were destroyed by slaanesh but the elder were clearly created by the old ones, not isha. Maybe isha is an old one?
I want more I don't care what it is I'll listen to anything you give us.
I'd love to see a full documentary on the great heresy or something.
Please keep on doing this. Your writing is very good and perfect fit with the voice.
Why did they have a mythology if they knew the old ones made them?
Love the video, but I've never heard 'Isha' pronounced like that before… Is it not just 'ih-shuh'?
Yes yes yes! I absolutely love the Eldar and Eldar mythology and it's fairly hard to find lore videos about it in my experience. Thanks for covering this! ❤
Man 40k has so many gods it's hard to keep track of them and where they went when the chaos gods showed up.
8:22 I never heard that Lileath was ever consorted to Kurnous before.
12:02 How can they side with mortals if there is a barier preventing them to meet?
12:57 Is Faolchu a male or a female? Or is it irrelevant? Man, Lileath, Isha, Faolchu… Kurnous is insatiable lol XD
I thought the war in heaven was with the Necrontyrs and the C'tans?
If it happened to xenos, can it really be called a tragedy?
I would kill for a video by you about the birth of slaanesh.
I wish I had the older games the era were Terrans acquired internet through primitive telephone jacks mounted in the walls of their habitations
You should do a video about thousand sons next
i thought the eldar where made by the old ones?
and the war in heaven was the necrontyr/cathan vs the old ones/eldar/qorks
Quick note as well, there are two conflicts known as the War in Heaven within 40k: the war between the Eldar gods as is covered in this video, and a seperate war between the old ones and the Necrontyr. I hope this hasn't caused any confusion.
Is this an AI voice? 😂
Brother, big fan, gonna have to call you out on the use of this MTG card at 3:24 that is in fact Phenax, God of Deception. Yeah, I have this card, it's a good card, but no.
Love this stuff,
KEEP IT UP!
Just remember everyone, watch with adblocker ON, not sure if the channel is monetized, but is most surely not approved by Sir Attenborough himself.
It should be noted that many in and out of universe of 40k. Believe the Alderi tales about their gods and mythology. Is the racial memory of the Old Ones and when the Old Ones up lifted them to weapons in the War in Heaven against the Necron and their C'tan masters.
Can we get a playlist assembled so we can just click and listen to them all consecutively please? Love the videos, thanks for making them!
If the Eldar know that thay are the creations of the Old Ones, why would they have a creation myth with these Eldar gods?
Or do they not know that the Old Ones created them?
Also, where did the Eldar gods originate from? Are they the byproduct of the Eldar's collective psychic emotions in the Warp?
Sorry for all these questions. I'm not as up on Eldar lore as I am on some other factions.
