Asternin was a planet in the Outer Rim located near the Nihil Occlusion Zone during the High Republic Era. Nine months after the destruction of Starlight Beacon, the settlement[1] Solunus[5] on Asternin was raided by the Nihil. Galactic Republic forces, alongside Jedi Master Pra-Tre Veter and Jedi Knights Bell Zettifar and Burryaga Agaburry, came to the aid of the settlers on the planet. While providing support, Nihil scouts identified the Grand Master and alerted Melis Shryke aboard the Stormship Cacophony. Nihil forces quickly arrived with their 47 lightsaber nullifier, rendering the Jedi weaponless. While Zettifar and Agaburry hurried the townspeople to safety, Veter used his powerful Force abilities to fend off and distract the Nihil before he was eventually captured.[1]
