- "Senator Xurfel signed up her two newest bodyguards with us this morning. I had to run them through the grinder to see how good they are."

- ↑ The events of Chapter 19 of Thrawn take place around 12–11 BBY with reasoning as follows. Chapter 19 mentions the "recent" deposition and exile of Lothal's former governor, Ryder Azadi, which Star Wars Rebels: The Visual Guide established to occur when Ezra Bridger was seven years old. Bridger was born on the first Empire Day, which Star Wars: Galactic Atlas: Updated Edition dates to 19 BBY, meaning he would be seven years old from the Empire Day in 12 BBY through the same day in 11 BBY. Therefore, Thrawn's Chapter 19 must occur between those two years.
