Darkknell system
Canon Linked from 11 articles
The Darkknell system was located in the Outer Rim Territories and Western Reaches regions of the galaxy, within the Grumani sector. The star system was situated in grid square M-17 of the Standard Galactic Grid and was connected the Hydian Way super-hyperroute, with another hyperspace route linking it to the celestial body Sanrafsix. The star system contained the astronomical object Darkknell.
In 231 BBY, former Nihil Tempest Runner Pan Eyta attacked the Galactic Republic correctional vessel Restitution after discovering that his nemesis, Tempest Runner Lourna Dee, was imprisoned onboard. During the attack, Dee launched fellow inmate Sestin Blin, whom she had befriended, off of the Restitution in an escape pod. The battle ended with Dee killing Eyta and reforming her Tempest, claiming the Restitution as her new flagship. Afterward, the Republic Defense Coalition patrol ship Moonseeker found the pod in the Darkknell system upon tracing its distress beacon.
