"I was here long before you ever showed up! I don't see why I have to pay anything"
"We got a
town now, and I'm the mayor. If you can't pay, I'll be obliged to take your building and land."
―Alma and the town's mayor[1]

A town was located on the Outer Rim planet Ah Re Won. It was nestled between a beach and ancient Sith temple ruins. During the course of the local human woman Alma's life, the area grew from an unincorporated settlement into a town large enough to justify a mayorship. The ruins and the proximity to the beach made the town a potential tourist destination, which the Sullustan mayor leveraged in the construction of a luxurious hotel on the beach. Although Alma had operated a bed and breakfast near the ruins for a long time, the mayor hoped to oust the woman from her home to improve his visitors' view of the ruins. Some groups, such as the hunting party of Prince Afolonkin ventured to the town to party and imbibe in the hotel and hunt karafankata in the wilderness abutting the temple ruins.[1]

At some point between around 40 BBY and 32 BBY,[2] the Sith apprentice Darth Maul arrived to the town to meditate at the temple ruins and elected to stay at Alma's place hoping to find quietude. When the mayor's purposefully noisy construction failed to oust Alma, the Sullustan resorted to arson. This annoyed Maul, so the Zabrak killed the town's mayor.[1]

Later, after the Pirate King of Sector Nine arrived to the town in search of his son, Afolonkin, who had been killed while hunting near the ruins, the furious pirate set his tank on both the hotel and Alma's inn. This caused widespread fires. As this noise frustrated Maul further, he slaughtered the pirate's crew and threw the tank into the pirate's starship, exploding both and causing further damage to the town. By the arrival of Maul's master, Darth Sidious, the town was eerily quiet in the wake of the carnage.[1]
