The adventurers also discover that githyanki insurgents oppose the invasion and that Vlaakith has been usurped by a githyanki named Emperor Zetch'r'r, who was the one who launched the invasion. In the end they must help the insurgents take control of the shipyard and give chase to the astral ship of the githyanki Admiral Kada'neLater, in the adventure Tyranny of Souls, it is revealed that Tiamat, as part of her greater goals, has had Vlaakith assassinated to take control of the githyanki, making a new pact with a githyanki named Zetch'r'r to make him the emperor of the githyanki and give him control over a force of dragons in exchange for serving her and turning from their crusade against the mind flayers to fight against her own enemies as part of the invasion. The soul of Gith, now free from imprisonment in the Nine Hells due to Tiamat having broken their pact by forcing the githyanki to abandon their crusade, comes to Tu'narath and possesses Vlaakith's intended successor to lead a resistance called the Separatists against Tiamat and Zetch'r'r's rule. Gith is captured, which leads to the Separatists recruiting adventurers to rescue Gith and fight Emperor Zetch'r'r and his red dragons.</blockquote>
