"Sometimes you have to burn things before you build them."
―Kyong Greylark, on a territorial dispute involving Voon[4]

Voon was an astronomical object[1] in the Voon system of the Krenher sector.[3] It was part of the Core Worlds and[1] the Interior,[2] and it lay in grid square K-9 of the Standard Galactic Grid.[1] During the High Republic Era, Voon was involved in a territorial dispute with[4] the astronomical object[1] Wor Tandell.[4] Around 383 BBY,[5] Galactic Republic Supreme Chancellors Kyong Greylark and Orlen Mollo argued over how to resolve the dispute, with Mollo wanting to patch things up, while Greylark wanted to tear up their agreement.[4] In 382 BBY,[5] during a meeting between Mollo and Monarch A'lbaran of the planet E'ronoh, Mollo recalled what Greylark had said about the dispute involving Voon while discussing E'ronoh's own dispute with the planet Eiram.[4]
