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

A skirmish took place in the year 3999 BBY on the planet Ambria. Under the direct orders of Great Bogga the Hutt, a gang of pirates and thugs were dispatched to Ambria to retrieve both the Tchuukthai Jedi Master Thon and the precious Adegan crystals in his possession. The battle saw the total defeat of Bogga's henchmen. It was also the second conflict in which Thon's apprentice Nomi Sunrider wielded a lightsaber and displayed her natural ability with the Jedi power of battle meditation. As a result of Sunrider's actions, Thon deemed her ready to assume her new identity, and declared her Jedi: Knight of the Galactic Republic.
