The Illithid Empire must never return, but a Gith Empire would be just as bad, if not possibly worse. The best thing to be done is lock them in a civil war in which their racial pride will never recover, kill Orpheus and set Lae'zel on the path of rebellion against Vlaakith. Their awful race will kill itself while the Illithids regain their strength, and the three factions will keep each other contained. Survival at its finest, as a certain Emperor would call it.

Best outcome for Lae'zel might be someday joining the ranks of the Githerai (in one ending she is going to negotiate an alliance with them) together with her remaining rebels - but I must admit my knowledge about the Githerai is far to limited to judge this option.

I think that if in the ending either is wirh Orpheus or leads the rebellion herself she pulls off the negotiations with her githzerai cousins (which may prove difficult as the Githzerai don't trust those that are not a part of them) it just might gain a decently steady (or unsteady depending on how you look at it) alliance between the two groups.

He changed the rules before Bane, Bhaal, and Murkal when Jergal just gave it all up to them freely. So my guess is he will just slap her back down to being a lich.

The best thing to do is let gale sacrifice himself. He wants to do it for his goddess so let him go be happy. That way nobody turns into a mindflare. All you have to do is get the tadpole from the emperor.. tell the Emperor you will have to think about it and then go talk to everybody. Ask gale if he is sure he will use the orb. then tell the Emperor you will use the tadpole if the orb fails Which will appease him.. make sure you have Laezal in your party that way when he tries to kill Orpheus she will stop it and you can side with with her and then Orpheus won’t turn you into a mind flare right away because you will have the tadpole from the emperor so he automatically thinks you will do it if you have to. But don’t be fooled when the last scene happens because when he looks at you, he sees a mind flare, but that’s just the way he sees you because he is a god. At the end of the scene you will be your mortal self. My favorite ending is to sacrifice gale in the third act. The only downside is the orb might destroy his soul as well, but nobody knows. So there is a chance he can’t be reincarnated. I just don’t believe Mistra would let that happen. I’m on my fifth play through and I’m doing the dark urge for the first time and I am having a ball with it. The way I like to end the game is different from other people. But I thought I would at least try to help some of those who don’t want to be a mindflare at all.

Well, it is a good ending for me, the frog got what she wanted. And the githyanki empire will eat itself easy with vlaakith slowing weakening it for her own purposes. A free githyanki empire just means they are more efficient at conquering. Gith was a monster but at least Vlaakith is bad at conquering. Orpheus, the son of gith most likely would have continued his foul mothers’ filthy legacy and eventually turn against us just to make more slaves off istik.

letting Lae'zel go through with this was NEVER an option imo, Vlaakith is real bad news, just like darth sidious.

Bad news for githyanki maybe, but good news for everyone else. Keeping this bloodthirsty a Conquering race weak makes them easily occupied with fighting mindflayers and not conquering all of faerun. That creche was proof of that. Slaughtering all of Lathander’s faithful so the frogs could infest in it…abominations…. They are aliens from outer space who would conquer us if giventhe chance

What is there to expand? She just dies in that scene. Vlakith literally gobbles the souls of those who "ascend". That phylactery of hers must be fueled somehow
