"The enemy is at our gates. My men have fought valiantly alongside the Jedi, but our losses are terrible. The Jedi claim they have a plan to turn the tide, but I don't know if I can trust them."
―Major Fewn Hew[4]

Fewn Hew was a military officer of the Galactic Republic who lived during the Old Sith Wars.

Biography

During the Great Sith War,[1] Major Fewn Hew commanded a contingent of troops on the planet Mustafar,[4] the site of a large Jedi Enclave.[2] In 3996 BBY,[1] the Sith attacked the planet. Major Hew and his men fought valiantly alongside the Jedi but they suffered terrible casualties.[4] At some point, the Jedi decided to turn the tide of the battle by unleashing the power of a mysterious and colossal Force crystal. Although the plan worked perfectly at the beginning,[2] Hew was quite skeptical about this strategy.[4] Eventually, the crystal exploded and immediately put an end to the battle as it decimated every combatants present on Mustafar and ravaged the surface of the planet.[2]

Millennia later,[1] the historian Epo Qetora discovered records of Major Fewn Hew at the battle of Mustafar during the exploration of an Old Research Facility on Mustafar.[3]
