Involvement

Act One

Baretha is part of a githyanki patrol searching the Wilderness for a powerful weapon. As the sarth in the group, she reports directly to  Kith'rak Voss. As the party approach Baretha and the githyanki patrol near the entrance to the Mountain Pass, they find a group of Flaming Fists demanding them to lay down their weapons. The Fists are swiftly defeated in a bath of dragon flames.

Baretha and her squad become hostile to the party if provoked, or if the party fail to talk their way out of Kith'rak Voss' interrogation.
