"We've had five reports of the Nihil attacking over the past three hours. One on Hon-Tallos, one on Thelj, and another at an outpost near Tiikae."
"Anyone gone missing from those attacks?"
"Not on the outpost or Hon-Tallos, […]"
―Estala Maru and Vernestra Rwoh[1]

An outpost was located near[1] the Galactic Frontier planet[2] Tiikae during the High Republic Era.[1] In 230 BBY,[3] the outpost was attacked by the Nihil pirates, which was reported to the Galactic Republic space station Starlight Beacon within hours. Jedi Master Estala Maru—who was stationed on Starlight Beacon—mentioned the attack at the outpost to Jedi Knight Vernestra Rwoh when she contacted him. After Rwoh asked if anyone had gone missing from the outpost as a result of the attack, Maru confirmed that none had.[1]

Behind the scenes

The outpost was mentioned in the 2022 junior novel The High Republic: Mission to Disaster, written by Justina Ireland and published as part of the Star Wars: The High Republic multimedia project's[1] Phase I.[4]
