- "Axxila is a ghost planet now. Carved from the inside out by strangers a galaxy away. I hope you make it off this husk."
- ―Pollus, to his son Firmus Piett
Axxila was a sparsely-populated[7] terrestrial planet[3] located in the D'Astan sector of the Outer Rim Territories.[1] An exporter of ores, the once prosperous world eventually fell into obscurity after outside forces like the Galactic Empire engaged in strip mining operations.[3] Axxila was the homeworld of Imperial Admiral Firmus Piett.[6]
Behind the scenes
Axxila was first mentioned in Star Wars canon in the 2015 reference book Ultimate Star Wars.[6] Before that, it first appeared in the 1998 Star Wars Legends eight-part story arc Star Wars: X-Wing Rogue Squadron: Masquerade from the comic book series Star Wars: X-Wing Rogue Squadron published by Dark Horse Comics.[8]

This assumes that the name "Celanon Spur," as used in Star Wars: Build the Millennium Falcon 48 Guide to the Galaxy: Visiting Ord Mantell, applies to the canon hyperspace route depicted on the map that matches the depiction of the Star Wars Legends route with the same name in The Essential Atlas per Jason Fry (@jasoncfry.bsky.social.) on Bluesky (post on January 3, 2025): "They are indeed the same. Same galaxy, same map. In the rare event something needs to be changed, it will be discussed. (In response to: Hi @jasoncfry.bsky.social, was hoping you could confirm for Wookieepedia purposes that the hyperspace routes depicted on the Galaxy Map given out at Celebration are intended to be the same routes as in Legends. Sorry to bother, but would make our lives much easier to have it confirmed!)" (screenshot).
