The Squall

Legends Canon version → Linked from 9 articles

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

The Squall was an arena located at the Imperial Royal Guard Academy on Yinchorr where those aspiring to be members of the Emperor's Royal Guard battled each other for supremacy and favor of Emperor Palpatine. Darth Vader once killed Burr Danid in The Squall, reminding the trainees of how much they had yet to learn.

In 11 ABY, Kir Kanos met Carnor Jax in The Squall for their final showdown, where Kanos killed Jax by impaling him through the heart; Kanos left Jax's corpse lying on the center of The Squall, denying him the dignity Jax had denied so many other Royal Guards.
