Patriarch Thooraki was very protective of Thrawn, knowing the officer was a brilliant tactician and strategist but also aware of Thrawn's fatal flaw of low political acumen. Thooraki correctly surmised that Thrawn had enemies within the upper echelons of not only the Ascendancy, but also the Mitth family itself. Thooraki knew he was old and close to death, and feared that members of the Mitth family who opposed Thrawn may seek to succeed him as Patriarch.
