Long ago, when Chaos was first unleashed upon the world, the Elven champion Aenarion drew the dread Sword of Khaine from its altar and used its terrible power to save his people from annihilation. The blade carried a curse that poisoned the bloodline of Aenarion, and so when he passed on at last from the world, the Elves were unwilling to appoint his son Malekith to be the next Phoenix King. In retaliation, Malekith engineered a terrible civil war that divided the race of Elves into two factions.
Unlike the High Elves, who suppress their passions lest they be overcome by them, the Dark Elves willingly embrace their hedonistic nature. Dark Elf society emphasizes individualism, selfishness, and pride. They have little regard for one another, and even less for the other races of the world which they see only as potential slaves and subjects.
Since their expulsion, the Dark Elves have desired nothing more than to return to Ulthuan and avenge their defeat, reclaiming the land they believe to be theirs by right. In the Age of Reckoning, Malekith learns of an impending Chaos invasion of the Empire and uses this knowledge to set in motion a chain of events that will elave the island home of the Elves defenseless against an invasion. At the Witch King's command, a great fleet of Black Arks, great floating islands laden with soldiers and engines of war, sets sail across the sea to conquer the island kingdom of Ulthuan and fulfill the destiny denied the Witch King so long ago.
