- ―Oniho Zaya retelling the Battle of Crait
Oniho Zaya was a human male child who worked as one of Bargwill Tomder's stable hands at the fathier stables in Canto Bight.[1] During the First Order-Resistance War, he regaled his fellow urchins—such as Temiri Blagg and Arashell Sar—with a story about Jedi Master Luke Skywalker and how he stood alone against the forces of the First Order at the Battle of Crait.[2]
