Following the Midnight Coup, Tlazat and many other Loyalists of Emperor Calus were forced to join him in exile aboard The Leviathan and were sentenced to be taken to the edge of the galaxy. At some point in this voyage Tlazat was appointed by Calus to work with Scribe Shagac as royal historians and record a "true" history of the Cabal from the perspective of Calus. This tome, known as the Chronicon, was to be a "beacon of truth" to combat the lies of Dominus Ghaul and his fellow conspirators. Tlazat wrote the first entry of the Chronicon, which depicted a speech given by Calus upon his exile, in which the Emperor supposedly declared a new age in history was beginning that would be defined by his golden knowledge which he would share with only the worthy.[1]
In the five-hundred and seventy-fifth entry, Tlazat recorded a violent malfunction in The Leviathan's engines that resulted in the massive vessel being flung to an unknown point in space and severely damaged its systems. Tlazat and the rest of the crew were left in darkness as the engineers and pilots worked to repair the vessel, eventually gathering around Calus to seek his guidance. However, Calus wished only to don a spacesuit and venture out of the ship alone to see their place of banishment. After Calus did so, the ship began being lashed by violent tremors which rendered many of the other crewmembers unconscious over the next two hours. Continuing to record in the Chronicon, Tlazat began writing about the events in real time and stopped utilizing the typical exaggerations he and the other scribes used to write the text. Tlazat sought out Zhozon, the Emperor's closest confidant, and learned from his fellow Psion that he was feeling a mounting pressure in his brain, a ailment which had caused twelve others to begin bleeding from their ears. Tlazat was affected as well, becoming unable to write physically any longer and using his mind to do so instead. He feared that Ghaul had not in fact sent them to exile but instead to die at the edge of space where the citizens of the Cabal Empire could not see and was sure that Calus had already perished outside The Leviathan.[2]
