A number of years later, she was instrumental in bringing an end to the war by aiding the Haebrous king, Jailne, and the Yalaini empress, Alaidain, in finding the secret ways through the trackless tunnels of Vasmora, the great cavern beneath the Plateau of Gelid, where they defeated King Sarvien II in a pitched battle.<ref name="TranslatedLetter" /><ref name="HistoryOfAubereanVol1" /><ref name="MuMiyahNoteTranslation">2000/08 Taste of Twilight - Mu-Miyah Note Translation</ref><ref name="ACDMCDLoreTheLayOfLeikotha">2001/11 Dark Majesty - AC:DM CD Lore: The Lay of Leikotha</ref>

During the Empyrean Shadow War, Lady Maila Realaidain sought the help of Lady Adja to protect her son, Asheron, from the Hopeslayer's rage using the forbidden ways to extend life taught to her by her mother and grandmother.<ref name="TranslatedLetter" /><ref name="Communion">2001/11 Dark Majesty - AC:DM CD Lore: Communion</ref><ref> Asheron's Call 2:

Apocrypha

In a 2016 Q&A, former developer Chris "Stormwaltz" L'Etoile describes Lady Adja as "the last full-blood descendant of a line of Falatacot who communed with the Deru."<ref name="Stormwaltz2016QAQuestions2And3">2016/10 Stormwaltz 2016 Q&A: Questions 2 & 3</ref> While not mentioned by name, this suggests Adja's grandmother was descended from the Light Falatacot faction. If accurate, this would represent the only mention of a Light Falatacot living amongst the Dericost during the events of the Millennium War.
