Raid on the Overwatch

In 3630 BBY Kaliyo Djannis and the Commander of the Alliance that opposed Zakuul raided the Overwatch command center that ran most of the droids in the Spire, the capital city of the Eternal Empire. Kaliyo obtained the Overwatch access codes through her fan Alianna Slen, daughter of the Overwatch Administrator Tayvor Slen. Tayvor himself had a crush on Kaliyo and provided her lodgings and protection in exchange for her avoiding major targets, and Kaliyo viewed the raid as her opportunity to pay him back for humiliation. When her order for high-yield explosives from the Lady of Sorrows fell through, Kaliyo asked the Alliance Commander who rescued her from skytroopers to assist in her mission, promising complete schematics of the Spire from the Overwatch in return. Together, they rigged ion grenades into several Power Junctions in the Spire, then detonated them at once, taking down Overwatch security scanners and force fields, allowing them to walk right in. Kaliyo and the Commander fought their way through skytroopers and Knights of Zakuul to the droid control room, where Kaliyo planted her explosives while the Commander downloaded the Spire's schematics. Tayvor Slen arrived with a skytrooper escort to stop them, but was defeated and mortally wounded. Kaliyo intended to not only shut down the droids, but also set off explosives around the Spire, then the two escaped the Overwatch, traveling to the Alliance base on Odessen.
