The destruction of Darth Marr's flagship was the first encounter with the Eternal Fleet by Galactic Republic and Sith Empire's joint forces happened in 3636 BBY, when Darth Marr led seven vessels on an expedition into Wild Space in search of the former Sith Emperor Vitiate and unknown forces that had recently raided Imperial and Republic worlds. After they unknowingly intruded on the borders of the Eternal Empire of Zakuul, Vitiate's alter-ego Valkorion sent the Eternal Fleet to deal with the intruders. The enormous armada emerged from hyperspace right on top of Darth Marr's task force and began laying fire, while also launching boarding pods filled with skytroopers. On Marr's orders the vessels raised their shields and attempted to get away, but a large number of boarders spread across all decks, overcoming Imperial and Republic soldiers and sabotaging critical systems. In the end, though Darth Marr and his ally destroyed a great number of skytroopers, Darth Marr's flagship was damaged beyond the breaking points and was destroyed, with Marr and his ally taken captive, though some soldiers managed to abandon ship in the escape pods, which the Eternal Fleet did not bother to destroy.
