Legends. This article is part of Legends: the expanded-universe stories that Lucasfilm set apart from canon in 2014.

This skirmish took place in 27 BBY when the bounty hunters Jango Fett and Zam Wesell, along with the Jedi Master Yarael Poof, attempted to stop General Ashaar Khorda and his followers from using the Infant of Shaa to destroy Coruscant. Khorda planned to place the artifact in the planet's power relays, causing it to explode and release a massive amount of Force energy, destroying the planet. However, Fett, Wesell, and Poof were able to defeat and kill Khorda and his men, saving Coruscant in the process, though Poof was also killed in the battle.
