He personally led his regiment, which guarded the westerly approach towards the capital, but by early May when the tide of war had turned against Ava, Tarabya and other key vassal rulers, renounced their ties to Nyo, and retreated to their respective regions. Tarabya also brought his nephew, who then wore the title of

415:, Thihathu's favorite queen, perhaps as a face-saving gesture. (To be sure, Nyo most probably needed to get rid of Saw Pu from the palace as the queen was intensely disliked by Queen Bo-Me, who had put him on the throne.) At any rate, Tarabya, along with the majority of the vassals from central and southern regions, pledged support to Nyo.

Per (Maha
Yazawin Vol. 2 2006: 34), (Yazawin Thit Vol. 1 2012: 246) and (Hmannan Vol. 2 2003: 20), there was at least one prior Tarabya of Pakhan, who was moved to become governor of Pagan in 1413. The first Tarabya is sometimes referred to as Tarabya the Elder (ပုခန်း တရဖျားကြီး, lit. "the older

Thado would soon come to rue his decision to spare the princes' lives. Although
Tarabya is not heard from again in the chronicles, the younger Minye Kyawhtin never gave up his claim to the throne. The young prince fled Thissein just a few months later, and soon raised a major rebellion that would

As governor of Pakhan, a major vassal state, he must have gone to the front from 1413 onwards. But outside of a brief mention in the 1422–1423 campaign in (Yazawin Thit Vol. 1 2012: 268), his name does not appear in any of the campaigns (1413–1418) in the chronicles. He was only a regimental

Most vassal rulers were unsure of Thado's claim to the throne as he did not hail from the founding house of the dynasty. Although a few of the vassals would later raise long running rebellions throughout Thado's reign, they initially did not challenge Thado. Tarabya was the only exception.
475:
Thado, who began his career as a page for Prince Min Swe (King
Minkhaung), had a soft side for the only living son and grandson of his deceased lord. Instead of executing the royals with the strongest claim to the throne, the king sent Tarabya to live in an estate near the

Considering himself the rightful heir to the Ava throne, Tarabya flatly rejected Thado's call for submission, but he could not get other vassals, even those surrounding Pakhan, to support him. Indeed, when the time came to choose, all the vassal rulers near Pakhan—

The main chronicles do not mention his age at any point in his life except that he was the youngest child. Given that his immediate older sibling
