- "M-my gran used to say when she was small, they measured time not by the moon, but by when Eiram's ships flew over the city. I—I think she was exaggerating but it was ages ago."
- ―Bly Tevin, to Thylefire Squadron
The grandmother of the pilots Bly Tevin and Lina was an E'roni woman who hailed from the Outer Rim planet E'ronoh. At some point when she was young, she watched ships from the Outer Rim planet Eiram fly over the Rook, E'ronoh's capital city. She later told Tevin that she and others used the vessels' flyovers to keep track of time instead of using their system's Timekeeper Moon. While flying on an escort mission with Thylefire Squadron of E'ronoh's fleet[1] in 382 BBY,[2] Tevin relayed his grandmother's tale to his colleagues but noted that she might have exaggerated her story.[1]
