By the time between 3 ABY and 4 ABY, the line had ruled the syndicate for hundreds of generations. Lash came out of hiding as she was dying as a result of pneumogray, and she entrusted her protégé, the bounty hunter Beilert Valance with keeping Cadeliah safe until she became of age to claim her birthright. Vukorah was contacted by Lash, who also attempted to broker a deal with Vukorah for Cadeliah's safety, though the general was not prepared to let Cadeliah ruin all she had built in the clan. Vukorah then placed a bounty on Valance and Cadeliah, either dead or alive, and hired the hunters 4-LOM and Zuckuss for the job. The two were unsuccessful in their attempts and Cadeliah was left by Valance in the care of Yuralla Vega, his former lover, and the Rebel Alliance.
After allying herself with Lady Qi'ra of Crimson Dawn, Vukorah was given the Unbroken Dagger, which had been lost centuries before, and made her way to the Unbroken Clan Palace to speak with the Grand Leader. He told her that because of Krynthia's death years before, the line would end when he died, unaware that he had a granddaughter. The general told the Grand Leader she was unwilling to let that happen, and revealed to him that she had the dagger. When the Grand Leader tried to tell Vukorah the relic was meant to only be held by members of the line, she stabbed him with it, killing him. As the Grand Leader laid dying, Vukorah informed him of Cadeliah's existence, and that his granddaughter would soon join him in death after she was captured by Crimson Dawn. Vukorah then took over the clan, becoming the new Grand Leader. After Cadeliah was captured by Crimson Dawn, she was kept safe by Qi'ra as she believed that with the girl's help, as a result of her being the heir to two of the Unbroken Clan and Mourner's Wail, she could unite the criminal underworld. Eventually Cadeliah's existence, and her place as the rightful heir to the Unbroken Clan began to become known to other members of the clan, who then tried to remove Vukorah from her position. First, Skormarra attempted to kill Vukorah and take the throne until Cadeliah was ready to take it herself, but was unsuccessful and killed by Vukorah. Then sometime later, two members made plans to kill Vukorah and allow Cadeliah to claim the title that had been held by her grandfather.
