# The Ember

-The consolidated energies of all Asterii souls, shaped into a projectile weapon to be launched by the [Worldminds](https://kgco.AspenArkive.com/books/the-asteriicinquefoilsnemesis-xenos-heavy-encryption/page/worldmind "Worldmind") in an ultimate attack against a Chaos God.

-The Ember was unable to kill Nurgle, but apparently remains a toehold of sorts within the realm/being the Archenemy. It is possible that [Lazarus](https://kgco.AspenArkive.com/books/keojrah-glynt-assets/page/specialist-lazarus-quint "Specialist Lazarus Quint") encountered this ember in a dream, surrounded and slowly being encroached upon by gargantuan, organic structures shaped similarly to blades of grass. He was able to rejuvenate the Ember's flickering light using his [Redressor](https://kgco.AspenArkive.com/books/the-asteriicinquefoilsnemesis-xenos-heavy-encryption/page/artifact-nemesis-device-redressor "Artifact: Nemesis Device (Redressor)"). In the process, he learned how to use the device's purge protocol more efficiently.

-[King Quinque's](https://kgco.AspenArkive.com/books/asterion-factions/page/king-quinque "King Quinque") plan involves creating a larger Ember from the souls spread across the many Worldminds, and launching properly fatal attack against Nurgle.

-Remnants of the psychic attack seem to remain in the Immaterium, as small glowing embers; these residues have some role in containing the entity that powers the Worldmind of Asterion.
