Battle of Asylum

The Battle of Asylum occurred in 3631 BBY after Emperor Arcann of the Eternal Empire, having been notified of the Outlander's presence at the shadowport of Asylum by the Scion leader Heskal, brought the Eternal Fleet to Asylum and opened fire on it. Arcann killed Heskal and the other Scions and dueled the Outlander in their hideout, but was interrupted when a shuttle crashed into it, allowing the Outlander to escape. His forces then took control of docking clamps keeping the Gravestone in place, requiring the Outlander, Koth Vortena and HK-55 to fight their way to the Control Spar to disable them, while Senya Tirall held off her daughter Vaylin at the Gravestone. The Outlander disabled the docking clamps, but was again attacked by Arcann, who destroyed HK-55 seemingly beyond repair. Despite suffering a great physical toll during the fighting, the Outlander survived and escaped the confrontation with Arcann alive, returning to Gravestone just as the vessel was taking off. The vessel destroyed one Eternal Fleet warship with turbolaser fire before escaping into hyperspace, while Eternal Empire forces continued to level Asylum unopposed.
