Seeing her family only in public broadcasts, she eventually learned that Thexan was killed during the raids into the Core Worlds. Senya abandoned her family, but not the Empire, taking assignments on the fringes of Zakuulan space. Senya attempted to rescue her daughter to no avail and later attempted to run away with the children, but they refused to leave, calling her weak.

Senya grew troubled by Valkorion's indifference to his children, which culminated with him locking Vaylin on Nathema and subjecting her to mental conditioning. The two began a romantic affair, and Tirall bore three children-the twins Thexan and Arcann, and her daughter Vaylin. Joining the ranks of the Knights of Zakuul, she rose to become a member of the personal guard of the Immortal Emperor Valkorion and caught his interest. Senya Tirall was a Human female Force-sensitive native of Zakuul, the capital of the Eternal Empire. " Now more than ever, I realize my children must be stopped and that I have to make peace with the choices I've made." ―Senya Tirall
