Skirmish between the Borokii and the Januul

Legends Linked from 5 articles

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

In 22 BBY, during a diplomatic mission to the planet Ansion undertaken by several members of the Jedi Order, a skirmish took place in the plains on Ansion between the Borokii and the Januul, two Alwari overclans. Four Jedi—Master Luminara Unduli, Jedi Knight Obi-Wan Kenobi and their Padawans Barriss Offee and Anakin Skywalker—were dispatched to Ansion to ensure it remained in the Republic. After finding the ruling Borokii, the Jedi agreed to help them deal with their traditional enemies, the Januul overclan. After both the Borokii and Januul armies had assembled outside the Januul camp, Kenobi attempted to get both sides to sit down and talk, though this initially failed and fighting broke out. During the skirmish, which was brief (lasting only minutes), the Jedi fought both sides. Once both overclans realized the Jedi had destroyed their finest weapons while avoiding killing anyone, they ceased all insult and assault and agreed to hear the Jedi out.
