Most of the Void creatures that attack your starspawn are "Mindless" and so MindbLast is completely ineffective against them. (Which I believe is why your body gaurds refused to use MindbLast).

Use the move-0 void critters that you occasionally get as bodyguards. They are tough, and you have nothing else to use them for.

And remember to either cast return or use ritual of returning - or both.

While that's true, that's not the reason they won't use MindbLast. Bodyguards never use any ranged attacks they might have, including magical ones like MindbLast. This makes putting illithids on bodyguard duty very counterproductive. Use Crab Hybrids until you get decent void summons.
