"The Occupation of Rhamalai" is a 35-page short story written by M. H. Watkins that was originally published in Star Wars Adventure Journal 13 by West End Games in May 1997.

Plot summary

The Empire subjugates the primitive, agrarian world of Rhamalai. Its human inhabitants have eschewed technology of any kind. The young men of Rhamalai are conscripted into the Imperial ranks. Young Nadra Enasteri must leave her ailing mother's side to work in the Imperial garrison base. The Empire, having no need for Nadra's infirm mother, Charis Enasteri, schedules her to be terminated. Denel Moonrunner, an adventurous youth being groomed as an Imperial trooper, decides to enlist the aid of his parents to help Nadra save her mother. The elder Moonrunners are actually Rebel agents who came to Rhamalai years ago, and have hidden technology in the countryside. Their astromech droid allows Denel and Nadra to bypass Imperial security and escape with Charis. The Imperials pursue, but Charis and Nadra hide in the countryside while the Moonrunners flee aboard their hidden starship.
