Death of Tsavong Lah at Ebaq 9
The invaders' warmaster survived the destruction of his troops on the moon, saved by his personal guard. Recovering, he immobilized the Jedi with a sticky mass and wounded Lowbacca, but in a duel Jaina Solo pierced his throat with her lightsaber.
Description
Warmaster Tsavong Lah headed the warrior caste and personally declared a hunt for the Jedi, demanding that the New Republic hand them over. At Ebaq 9, he believed rumors of a fortress in the Deep Core and led there the largest fleet since the fall of Coruscant, and the appearance of the Solo twins made the battle a matter of honor for him. When it became clear that the armada had fallen into a trap and that returning meant execution, Lah led the Yun-Yuuzhan battle group with twenty thousand warriors toward the moon, ordering the frigates to overload their shields. Ten thousand died in the minefield; another ten thousand landed and advanced on the bunkers. The destruction of this force was brought about by Vergere: stealing an interceptor, she accelerated to thirty-five thousand kilometers per hour and crashed into the moon's central shaft, causing explosive decompression. The Warmaster survived — he was wearing an ooglith cloak put on him by a subordinate. He challenged Jaina Solo to combat and died from a lightsaber she threw, which pierced his neck. Shimrra appointed Nas Choka as his successor.
