- "I think very little of a captain that runs from battle, […] leaving its fellow ship and an ally to face the murderous Chiss alone. The other Kilji paid with its life; and we will do likewise soon unless the three of us stand together."
"I see no sign of any pursuit, […] But you may approach so that we can discuss your situation. […] And, perhaps, your true identity."
"I look forward to our meeting, […] In the meantime, I urge you to prepare for combat. Whether or not you see pursuit, it is coming."
"If you're lying, you will die slowly, and in great pain, […] But I greatly hope you are not. The Chiss have taken the lives of many of my people. It's time we balanced that scale." - ―Uingali foar Marocsaa and the Grysk
A member of the Grysk species was present at the Sunrise system[1] in 18 BBY.[2] At that time, he was onboard the Grysk warship codenamed "Bogey One" by the Chiss officers aboard the Chiss heavy cruiser Springhawk. During a battle there, the Grysk contacted a Nikardun blockade frigate, the Aelos, in reality, a Paccosh-commandeered Nikardun frigate. The Grysk and the "Nikardun," in reality a Paccosh official, Uingali foar Marocsaa, then engaged in a conversation regarding the latter's reasons to be at the system, and the Kilji captain also present at Sunrise, the Paccosh stated that a Navigator had guided them to the system and criticized the Kilji, stating that he was a coward, leaving behind an ally, which faced death during a battle against the Chiss; and they would do if they did not join forces.[1]
However, the Grysk was aware of the Pathfinder, and knew that he could have not guided them to the system, as they were not aware of its existence or location, upon the other captain stating that they were in pursuit by Chiss forces—which was false, and that the Grysk vessel should prepare for combat, the Grysk threatened the Nikardun with death if they were lying, and added that he hoped not, as the Chiss had taken many Grysk lifes.[1]
Behind the scenes
The Grysk appeared in the 2021 novel Thrawn Ascendancy: Lesser Evil, the final installment of Timothy Zahn's Star Wars: The Ascendancy Trilogy.[1]
