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

The Undercity Ambush was the Jedi Coalition's first action taken against Jacen Solo, the co-Chief of State of the Galactic Alliance and Sith Lord. At first the plan was to either a capture or neutralize Jacen, but changed to planting a tracking device on Solo after realizing that the first intentions weren't realistic. The ambush was a failure, with Darth Caedus killing Thann Mithric and nearly killing the famous Jedi Master Kyle Katarn. The Jedi however, were able to plant the tracking device on the Dark Lord.
