After the Great Raid on the compound near Wacko, Brixas, and its aftermath there were some "complications" in the necromantic rituals used to revive the fallen. Some returned in an altered state, with visions and knowledge that challenged the fundamentals of Blue Hat ideology and threatened the supreme authority of the Leader.
