Valin Halcyon was an individual whose name was carved on the wall of a safehouse on the planet Mapuzo that was part of the Hidden Path, a network of safe houses that smuggled Force-sensitives and Jedi away from the Galactic Empire and to the planet Jabiim to get new identities and be protected. Jedi Master Obi-Wan Kenobi saw their name among others on the wall when he and Leia Organa were smuggled in by Tala Durith[1] in 9 BBY.[2] The same name was carved into a wall at the Path's base on Jabiim, at least three times.[3]
