History[]
In9 ABY, The Myrkr Base was the main base of operations of theSmugglers' Alliance.
Talon Karrde's base map.
In the early phases ofGrand AdmiralThrawn'scampaign,Imperial forces moved on the world in order to secure supplies ofysalamiri. The smugglers stayed first neutral towards the Imperial forces but were eventually forced toattack them after the capture ofLuke Skywalker andMara Jade in the Great Northern Forest.
Consequently, Karrde's smugglers were forced to flee the Imperials and evacuate Myrkr toRishi. The base was emptied and abandoned. Thrawn returned to Myrkr after theBattle of Sluis Van, usingAT-STs andAT-ATs to invade the planet and secure the base. But as he had expected, Karrde had left no trace.
