The Rift Valley was a rocky valley on the[1] Outer Rim Territories[2] planet Dathomir, and was the site of a past conflict.[1] Sometime between 12 BBY and 11 BBY,[3] Merrin, a surviving member of the slaughter of the Nightsister clan of Dathomirian witches[4] in 20 BBY,[5] attempted to infiltrate an asteroid base of the Haxion Brood crime syndicate. While on the asteroid, she encountered the defecting Keshiri Imperial analyst Chellwinark Frethylrin. Upon taking off the Frethylrin's helmet, she noted that the Keshiri's eyes were as red as the sky above the Rift Valley.[4]

- ↑ Jedi: Battle Scars dates itself to a few years after the events of Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order which take place in 14 BBY per Star Wars: Timelines. Therefore, the events of Jedi: Battle Scars must take place in 12 BBY at the earliest. Additionally, the novel dates itself within the years before Star Wars Jedi: Survivor, the events of which take place in 9 BBY per the reasoning here. Within Jedi: Survivor, it is also noted the Stinger Mantis crew has been broken up for "years." As the crew are together in Jedi: Battle Scars, the latest it can take place is 11 BBY. Therefore, the events of Jedi: Battle Scars occur between 12 and 11 BBY.
