It was nowhere that cut and dried, or pretty.
Sometime after KQ6, Sierra ended up getting bought or had a merger with some other company, with the understanding the Williams would still lead and run Sierra. Less than a year after the event, the other people were making all decisions and excluding Ken from everything. Finally he gave up and left. Roberta tried to keep the dream alive, but even on the KQ games she was getting outright ignored by the programmers and artists, who would do whatever they felt like. Finally the stress got to be too much and she quit.
Ken wrote a short book about Sierra from the start to their end with it, called Not All Fairy Tales Have Happy Endings, released about 4-5 years ago. If you wanna know why Sierra was such crap after KQ6, read it.

Out of the entire King's Quest series nobody seems to remember this one and probably for a good reason.
