The raid on Darvannis occurred when the Mandalorians attacked the planet Darvannis as part of the Alliance's war against Zakuul in 3630 BBY. After SCORPIO revealed that the GEMINI droids were produced from a single template called GEMINI Prime in the Darvannis factory, the Alliance leadership decided to retrieve it, although they did not have enough forces for a major assault. Theron Shan responded by calling in a favor to Shae Vizla, now holding the title of Mandalore the Avenger, though a group of Mandalorians would desert the Clans, under the leadership of Mirli Lok into forming the Ash'ad. The Alliance Commander traveled to Darvannis, where Vizla's Mandalorian clans were itching for both payback against the Eternal Empire and a chance to re-arm themselves with the spoils from the factory. Mandalore's best scout Torian Cadera joined the Commander in capturing the perimeter guns and reprogramming them to target the weapons factory, while Breyer Chorn and his forces took down the factory's shield generator. Afterwards, Vizla informed the Commander that the fighting would resume the next day after her troops had some rest. The next morning, Torian again joined the Commander in neutralizing the enemy forces at the Zakuulan listening post, while Shae Vizla and her second-in-command Khomo Fett led the attack against the factory's power stations in preparation for the main assault. With the factory's power stations taken over by Clan Beroya and Clan Fett warriors, Shae Vizla gathered her warriors to rally them before leading them inside the factory to claim as many weapons as possible, while Torian accompanied the Commander on a mission to secure the GEMINI Prime. The Commander successfully removed the droid from her alcove, while the Mandalorians retreated from the factory. In the aftermath of the battle, Torian asked the Mandalore to join the Alliance as her representative, and after Vizla granted his request, traveled to the Alliance base on Odessen along with the Alliance Commander.
