Biography

"Did he do something to you?"
"Yes...just kill him. I don't want to talk about it. Just...trust me, he deserves to die."
―A spacer and Anyza Ekull, about the slavemaster[1]

By the time following the Battle of Yavin, Anyza Ekull was captured by the Corellian slavers and enslaved in the Corellian Slaver Bunker near Tyrena. During her captivity, she was brutally treated and abused by the slavemaster.[1] In 1 ABY,[2] Anyza finally managed to escape the bunker with a group of slaves led by Kyran Silene. The escaped slaves did not reach Tyrena and established a camp in the wilderness. Nevertheless, Anyza remained deeply traumatized by the mistreatment and abuse committed by the slavemaster.[1] A spacer recruited by Kyran Silene's wife later arrived at the camp.[3] The spacer planed to infiltrate the bunker to find evidence of the slaver operations for the Corellian Security Force.[4] The spacer also met Anyza Ekull. The woman refused to explain what the slavemaster did to her and begged the spacer to kill the slavemaster. Once in the bunker, the spacer fought and eventually killed the slavemaster. Anyza Ekull was very grateful to the spacer and confessed that she might start recovering now.[1]

  2. ↑ The opening crawl of Star Wars Galaxies: An Empire Divided dates the game to after the events of Star Wars: Episode IV A New Hope, and additionally, Serji-X Arrogantus, who died in Star Wars (1977) 10—the events of which The New Essential Chronology dates to 0 ABY—appears in the game. Therefore, at least a portion of Star Wars Galaxies must be set in that year. Furthermore, in the game Ruwan Tokai references the destruction of the Death Star as having occurred one year earlier, and Strongholds of Resistance also places the events of Galaxies' Chapter 9: "The Fury of Exar Kun" in 1 ABY. Lastly, while Chapter 11: "The Battle of Echo Base" features the Battle of Hoth—dated to 3 ABY by The New Essential Chronology—the developers have stated that the portrayal of that battle in the game is intentionally anachronistic. Therefore, the events of Star Wars Galaxies must span from 0 ABY to around 1 ABY.
