Mission to Veeros

Canon Linked from 10 articles

Between 40 BBY and 34 BBY, the Jedi Yoda and Vetna Mooncrest were dispatched on a mission to the remote moon Veeros to investigate experiments being carried out by the moon's sole inhabitant, Atha Prime. Traveling in a Consular-class space cruiser piloted by Captain Maoi Madakor and Antidar Williams, the Jedi arrived at Atha Prime's palace and were greeted by his droid majordomo Blue-Tark who showed them Prime's renowned bio-fields.

Suspecting that there was more being hidden from them, the Jedi left but returned several hours later under the cover of solar activity on the south side of the palace. Entering the structure, they discovered a horde of xerexi that Prime had created and battled them before encountering Prime himself. Prime managed to escape from the Jedi on a starship, but other members of the Jedi Order then arrived and eliminated the remaining xerexi on the moon.
