Hira is killed.
Following the loss of the New Jedi Temple on Coruscant and the Massacre at Ossus, Hira went into hiding and was later present during the peace talks on Agamar between the New Jedi Order and Emperor Roan Fel seven years later in 137 ABY, alongside K'Kruhk, Rasi Tuum, and Shado Vao. Hira was unsure as to why they were attempting to form an alliance with the man who nearly wiped out the Jedi Order, but K'Kruhk pointed out that Marasiah Fel had revealed that the attack was actually against the Emperor's orders.[2]
During the following Sith Imperial ambush codenamed Operation: Thunderstroke, Master Hira fought alongside the other Jedi and the Imperial Knights to defend Roan Fel from warriors of the One Sith. Hira was killed by an unidentified Nautolan Sith Lord, who electrocuted the Jedi with Force lightning.[1]
