- "It has come to the Empire's attention that dissident elements engaging in a tawdry and potentially dangerous seasonal event are planning to infect Imperial space with their insipid notions."
- ―Extract from the edict
Imperial Edict GR-1NC4 was a law created by the Sith Empire during the Galactic War,[2] in 3638 BBY.[1] That edict was issued following of the Life Day Revelers on Vaiken Spacedock. It ordered all Imperial personnel not to engage in any of the seasonal, cheerful activities proposed by the Revelers, which were considered unbecoming of the Empire, as well as placed a ban on and warning about various items representing the holiday, including Sleigh I (due to its jingle bells being suspected to indicate the parcels contain explosives), Life Day Holo-Trees, and Cyan Spheres (the last of which had most of its description being heavily redacted).[2]
Behind the scenes
The code for the edict, GR-1NC4, is reference to the Grinch, a character who also loathes the holiday of Christmas, which Life Day is inspired from.
