- "Me, Silandra and Peethree were in the floating city of Penumbra, which orbits a gas giant in the Tollello system in the Outer Rim."
- ―Rooper Nitani
A gas giant was located in the Tollello system[3] in the Dail sector, part of the Outer Rim Territories[1] and Trailing Sectors.[2] It lay in grid square Q-18 of the Standard Galactic Grid[1] and was orbited by the floating city Penumbra.[3]
By around 377 BBY,[4] a pirate group intended to illegally purchase a stash of smuggled weapons to use in a series of raids on other settlements in the sector from Ullan Yite, the leader of the Bright Circle criminal organization, in Penumbra. Jedi Knight Rooper Nitani, Jedi Master Silandra Sho, and the droid P3-7A infiltrated the deal with the aim of arresting Yite in order to collapse the operation, and did so successfully.[3] Around that year,[4] Nitani made a pilgrimage to the Holy City on[3] the moon[5] Jedha and visited the bar Enlightenment, where she spoke with Piralli and Moona—friends of P3-7A and his previous owner, Keth Cerepath—and mentioned the gas giant while telling them about the mission to Penumbra.[3]
