The title of this article is conjectural. Although this article is based on canonical information, the actual name of this subject is pure conjecture.

In 231 BBY,^[3] forces of the Galactic Republic's Republic Defense Coalition^[2] and Jedi Order led by^[1] Jedi Master^[4] and Marshal Avar Kriss^[1] engaged the Nihil pirate organization on Magaveene, an astronomical object^[2] located in the Magaveene system^[1] within the Prefsbelt sector of the Outer Rim.^[5] The battle was part of the Jedi and Republic's response—known as Operation: Counterstrike—to the atrocity carried out by the Nihil on^[1] the Outer Rim planet^[4] Valo, where it destroyed the Republic Fair being held there.^[1]

As the battle was ongoing, the Frozian^[1] Jedi Knight^[2] Nooranbakarakana was sent to assist Kriss with a drift of Jedi Vector starfighters from the Republic space station Starlight Beacon.^[1] The engagement ultimately resulted in victory for the Jedi and Republic forces.^[2] Later that year,^[3] Kriss mentioned the Magaveene engagement while updating Jedi and defense coalition members aboard Starlight Beacon of the status of Operation Counterstrike shortly before the Battle of Galov.^[2]
