- "This is the Gravestone! This was the only ship that ever went up against the Eternal Fleet and won. Do you have any idea how long people have been looking for this thing?"
- ―Koth Vortena
Sometime prior to 4635 BBY,[1] a battle occurred in the far western reaches of the galaxy.
History
The Gravestone and the Eternal Fleet
The droid-controlled Eternal Fleet was systematically eradicating all life in the Unknown Regions. The Fleet was finally stopped in a confrontation with the Gravestone, a massive alien frigate that used its Omnicannon—a powerful weapon able to spread damage from a single shot to multiple adjacent targets—to drive back the fleet. The Gravestone ultimately proved victorious, forcing the fleet into a state of dormancy somewhere in the Unknown Regions. After the battle, the Gravestone's unknown builders scuttled the ship in the eastern Endless Swamp of the planet Zakuul, where it was lost to history for centuries, though the story of the battle would became famous.[2]

Notes and references
- ↑ 1.0 1.1
Star Wars: The Old Republic: Knights of the Fallen Empire — Chapter IV: The Gravestone the player character places an estimate of one thousand years and over that the Gravestone has been in the Endless Swamp, and Koth Vertona confirms this, placing an approximate date of 4635 BBY. Therefore the Battle against the Eternal Fleet must have occurred sometime before then.
