The Invasion of Voss, also known as the Defense of Voss and the liberation of Voss, was a major battle during the war against Zakuul of Zakuul. After Eternal Empress Vaylin sent her Eternal Fleet to assault Voss in search of her mother Senya Tirall, the Alliance that opposed the Eternal Throne came to the planet's defense. Theron Shan and Sana-Rae coordinated the Voss commandos in the capital city of Voss-Ka, while the Alliance fleet engaged the Eternal Fleet in orbit. The Alliance Commander traveled to the surface along with Lana Beniko and Torian Cadera, who commanded a squad of Mandalorian warriors into battle. Engaging skytroopers throughout the burning city, Beniko, and the Commander attempted to reach the northern city plateau before it was completely destroyed, then made their way to the Tower of Prophecy, where they helped Theron Shan to defend the position against Vaylin's Horizon Guards. Senya Tirall contacted the Alliance from the Shrine of Healing and pleaded for aid, believing that if healed by Voss Mystics, former Eternal Emperor Arcann would join their side. Making their way to the Shrine, the Commander met with Senya and agreed to assist her, ordering Lana and the Mandalorians to protect the Shrine. Senya ordered the Mystics to use her strength to heal her son in a Voss healing ritual, which was successful, but left Arcann confused, causing him to flee. Vaylin ordered the Eternal Fleet to burn the planet regardless of casualties, but the tide of the battle was turned by the arrival of the Imperial Navy, which turned the Eternal Fleet away. Sith Empress Darth Acina then greeted the Alliance Commander and invited them to Dromund Kaas to discuss a potential alliance against Vaylin.
