In the mission the player, alongside General Martok and Matriarch J'Ula, find Gowron in Koth; a realm for those unworthy of Sto-Vo-Kor or [[Gre'Thor|Gre'thor]]. He is in Koth because of the dishonorable actions of his ancestor Aakar (also portrayed by O'Reilly) as Aakar's dishonor doomed his descendants for three generations. He agrees to be the personal servant of [[Fek'lhr]] in the mission's conclusion to guarantee the player and J'Ula's success in enacting their plan to corner and stop Aakar.
