The Great Maze of Lok, also know as the Labyrinth, was a mysterious square maze upon the barren surface of the planet of Lok.
Description
The maze had several entrances and many dead ends, but those who found their way to the middle were rewarded by the sight of a small oasis, with four palm-like trees and park benches surrounding a clear-water pool. A mysterious gardener maintained the oasis.[1]
The Great Maze was also an obstacle which racers had to drive through in order to complete the Lok Marathon.[2]
History
The maze was built a long time before the Galactic Civil War by a visiting noble on a hunting expedition.[1]
After the Battle of Yavin, the Great Maze of Lok became the scene of fighting between Imperial and Rebel operatives.[3][4] In 1 ABY,[5] a spacer managed to reach the center of the Labyrinth and collected a knuckler left behind.[6] Around the same time, a member of Nym's Revenants, Rei Reeven, got injured in the maze. Ralia Reeven, Nym's quartermaster, dispatched a spacer to deliver medical supplies to rescue him.[7]

- ↑ The opening crawl of Star Wars Galaxies: An Empire Divided dates the game to after the events of Star Wars: Episode IV A New Hope, and additionally, Serji-X Arrogantus, who died in Star Wars (1977) 10—the events of which The New Essential Chronology dates to 0 ABY—appears in the game. Therefore, at least a portion of Star Wars Galaxies must be set in that year. Furthermore, in the game Ruwan Tokai references the destruction of the Death Star as having occurred one year earlier, and Strongholds of Resistance also places the events of Galaxies' Chapter 9: "The Fury of Exar Kun" in 1 ABY. Lastly, while Chapter 11: "The Battle of Echo Base" features the Battle of Hoth—dated to 3 ABY by The New Essential Chronology—the developers have stated that the portrayal of that battle in the game is intentionally anachronistic. Therefore, the events of Star Wars Galaxies must span from 0 ABY to around 1 ABY.
