Liberation of Mon Calamari Shipyards

The Liberation of the Mon Calamari Shipyards was a battle that occurred in 139 ABY, between Darth Luft's pirates and a Galactic Federation Triumvirate taskforce at a set of shipyards above the world of Dac. While on a quest to hunt the rogue Sith Darth Wredd, junk dealer Ania Solo and Imperial Knight Jao Assam discovered that another rogue Sith Darth Luft and his pirate associates had started a slaving ring operating in the Mon Calamari Orbital Shipyards above the planet Dac, which had been rendered lifeless during the Second Imperial Civil War. Jao Assam informed his superior Yalta Val, who convinced the Galactic Federation Triumvirate Admiral Gar Stazi to liberate the Mon Calamari and Quarren slaves.

A joint Galactic Alliance Navy and Imperial Knight force was dispatched to assault the Mon Calamari shipyards. During the fighting, the Galactic Alliance Navy used the tanker Trand Cappa to flood the shipyards, neutralizing the pirates. Imperial Knights and seatroopers then liberated the shipyards and apprehended the pirates. Ania Solo and her companions also succeeded in closing space doors to the shipyards, saving many Mon Calamari and Quarren slaves. Jao Assam also dueled and killed Darth Luft. Following the battle, the liberated Mon Calamari and Quarren slaves settled in the flooded shipyards. However, Jao and Ania quickly discovered that they had merely played into Darth Wredd's hands by eliminating Darth Luft. This brought Darth Wredd closer to his goal of destroying the One Sith and reinstating the Rule of Two.
