A battle was fought at the Maelstrom early in the Galactic War between the Galactic Republic and the Sith Empire. The Jedi Master Oteg, a fleet admiral in the Republic Navy and commander of the First Expeditionary Fleet, had learned of a powerful Jedi who had been held as a personal prisoner of the Sith Emperor at a secret prison in the Maelstrom, and rallied an elite team to free him. After obtaining a Gree computer to travel the shifting expanse of the Maelstrom, the team infiltrated the base to free the prisoner while Oteg's fleet engaged the Imperial defenders in space.
