"One mark massive enough to be the Yadeez. The other large ones could be sensor shadows, or maybe escort ships. The small ones could be TIEs, but—"
"They look like they're fighting. Could they be shooting at rogue Imperials?"
"I don't—"
―Hera Syndulla and Comscan officer Dhina[3]

A gas giant was located in the Ciaox Verith system,[3] within the Trailing Sectors portion of the Inner Rim Territories.[1] In 5 ABY,[4] the Galactic Empire's 204th Imperial Fighter Wing ran combat drills above the gas giant until it was attacked by a New Republic battle group led by General Hera Syndulla.[3]

Notes and references

  1. ↑ 1.0 1.1 1.2 Victory's Price: An Alphabet Squadron Novel establishes that the 204th Imperial Fighter Wing visited the Ciaox Verith system and its gas giant while traveling between Fedovoi End and Chadawa. The Star Wars Galaxy Map places both worlds in the Inner Rim Territories; therefore, it can be deduced that the gas giant was also located in that region. That area of space is also placed in the Trailing Sectors by Star Wars: The Galactic Explorer's Guide.

  4. ↑ The events of Victory's Price: An Alphabet Squadron Novel begin after the Cerberon system campaign, and the novel also features the Battle of Jakku at the end of its three main sections. Since Star Wars: Timelines dates both of those conflicts to 5 ABY, the main events of Victory's Price must therefore be set in that year.
