Merisee

Merisee was a terrestrial astronomical object located in the Merisee system in the Elrood sector of the Outer Rim Territories. In 230 BBY, during the High Republic Era, Merisee was engulfed by the Nihil pirates Occlusion Zone region of space and placed behind its Stormwall hyperspace barrier. Between 230 BBY and 229 BBY, during her time trapped in the Occlusion Zone, Jedi Master Avar Kriss visited Merisee where she sold her diadem for food to help individuals on the celestial body. In 229 BBY, the Jedi Master recalled losing her diadem when she thought about how she had changed while in the Occlusion Zone. The following year, Kriss—by then having escaped Nihil space—mentally recalled the time she had helped the people on Merisee by selling her diadem when she compared her Jedi attire to Jedi Knight Vernestra Rwoh.

During the Galactic Civil War, it was the site of a skirmish.
