Description

Naboo came under Nihil rule after another expansion of the Stormwall, which swallowed most of the Chommell sector. The garrison was commanded by General Abediah Viess, who was quartered in the estate of the San Tekka clan. An opportunity for a breakthrough arose when the defector Xylan Graf passed information about the barrier's design to the Republic, and Avon Sunvale deciphered the key tied to Mari San Tekka's homeworld; Graf's condition was the liberation of Naboo. The operation was divided in two: Elzar Mann led a strike on the Lightning Strike station, which powered the wall, and Avar Kriss led the landing at Naboo. With her went Knights Burryaga Agaburry, Bell Zettifar, and Vernestra Rwoh, while Master Porter Engle, who had long been pursuing Viess, infiltrated the estate separately. At the manor the Jedi had to fight two Nameless; for the first time they managed to kill them by overcoming the terror the creatures induced. Kriss single-handedly disabled the cruiser Swift Fire by ramming it with her Vector. The planet was liberated, but Viess escaped in a stolen yacht. Marchion Ro soon changed the barrier's key, and the Stormwall rose again.
