Iirc Vlaakith has no heirs, that's why she turned herself into a lich.

Least I remember seeing that somewhere.

Like the queen personal captain or something like that.

Idk man, im still pretty sure she's just faking it. A Dragon Knight should know her if she's important and she should have a silver sword

She says part of becoming a kithrak is getting a silver swords, so she shouldn't have one yet.

Yeah, but Sebille was the heiress of the Elven throne in DOS and she was barely more than slave when we met her. Maybe the dragon knight doesn't know Lae'Zel because he is not important enough to know, or just oblivous to Lae'Zel mission.

Maybe she is like the hero of Farseer trilogy, Fitz. An assassin or a secret agent that only the most important people know.

Or maybe she is just a delusional trainee, yeah.

In fairness, she could've been separated from it too.
It might even be a quest later to retrieve her sword.

If there is possibility of Laezel fighting/killing SH then I guess her 'quest' of taking mindflayer's head will change to capture an artifact. If githyanki really have a cure (lich queen is quite powerful) then box could be the price. Possible party betreyal plot

If she was, she'd have turned against us at the Githyanki Patrol.

I mean she technically does it, the only problem that she did not consider is that she was on the trapped side too

Vlaakith became a lich for power alone. She drains the life force of her highest level minions to increase that power. That's why in older editions where the githyanki knights reached 16th level (or I think 10/10 fighter- mage in 2nd ED) before they could reach 17th level she'd sacrifice them to both get stronger herself and to ensure that none of her subjects could usurp her.. the way she usurped the ruler before her. I know she's not actually monitoring their levels, but that's what it said about her in either 2E or 3E.

I agree that Lae'zel has a naive view of her own people. Or she has an elevated position and believes that a dragon rider should defer to her even though she is not yet one herself. If I remember right they do have a caste system with nobility.
