- ―Crix Yarrow, to an entertainer
After the Battle of Yavin, Crix Yarrow served as an aide to Mikdanyell Guh'rantt, mayor of Mos Eisley.[1] In 1 ABY,[2] the city and the mayor were in trouble because of attacks of Tusken Raiders. In fact, the attacks were part of a plot of the crime lord Jabba the Hutt to pressurize the mayor and eventually take control of the city. During that time, Crix Yarrow visited Bestine and stayed in a local hotel. During his visit, he watched an entertainer perform for him. However, the entertainer was sent by Anetia Kah'ryn and was actually there to learn some information from Crix about the sinister plot being carried out in Mos Eisley. Anetia, a performer herself, found that patrons were more willing to divulge information after they have been entertained. Indeed, Crix agreed to speak to the entertainer, and simply revealed that there was some criminal boss who wanted to control Mos Eisley. Unfortunately, that was all the information he knew. Anetia Kah'ryn was finally able to discover the truth and expose the whole plot to Mayor Mikdanyell Guh'rantt.[1]

Star Wars Galaxies: Rage of the Wookiees — Entertainer Quest: "The Entertainer's Life" on Tatooine
- ↑ 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.
