However, behind Calus's back, [[Ghaul]] was organizing a coup with the Consul and some of Calus's closest friends and advisors: [[Umun'arath]], [[Shayotet]], [[Otzot]], [[Moli~~]] [[~~Imoli]], [[Iska'al]], and [[Caiatl]]. [[Ghaul]] launched his coup in the dead of night. With the Emperor too popular to simply execute, Ghaul, his Red Legion, and the Consul arrested Calus and a number of supporters in his own court and exiled him aboard The Leviathan, taken far from the Empire along a pre-programmed course.

Ghaul swiftly assumed power. Declaring that there would be no more emperors, he instead assumed the title of ''Dominus'' and imposed radical reforms on the Empire. Under his leadership, Cabal culture moved from hedonism and pleasure for all to militarism and personal glory. The Empire's member species were diminished in relevance. Its subtlety was replaced by brute, industrial force. It conquered rather than absorbed.
