The Fyrth system was located in the Inner Rim.[1] It contained several asteroid fields[2] that were believed to be the only source of the opila lightsaber crystals.[4]
By 3959 BBY, the Fyrth system was a part of the "civilized galaxy," the territory that had been widely explored by the Galactic Republic.[1] At some point, ancient Jedi Knights used the star system's opila crystals,[5] which could be found in the galaxy[2] by 3956 BBY.[6] Between 12 ABY and 13 ABY, the Fyrth system was situated within the borders of the New Republic.[3]
Behind the scenes
The Fyrth system was first mentioned in the 2003 BioWare video game Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic.[2] The entry for the system in 2008's The Complete Star Wars Encyclopedia refers to the asteroid fields that were the source of the opila crystals in singular form,[4] which contradicts other sources[2][7][8]—including the entry for the opila in the book itself[5]—and which this article therefore treats as an error. The 2009 reference book The Essential Atlas placed it in grid square Q-7.[1]
