Plot summary[]

Hoth heist[]

Around3 ABY,[2] severalweeks after the Battle ofHoth,snowtroopers of theGalactic Empire collect contraband from the abandoned Rebel Alliance outpost ofEcho Base on theplanet Hoth. Atransport arrives to collect the contraband, though onetrooper insists that they have orders to keep searching for signs of rebel activity. Aboard the transport, the snowtroopers question the route that the driver is taking, and one trooper orders the transport to be turned around. Before the driver can react, thebounty huntersKrrsantan andTubleek Ruz attack, and the driver reveals herself to be the rogue archaeologist Doctor Chelli Aphra, having led the transport into an ambush in order to steal its cargo. Ruz turns on Aphra and threatens to take out thebounty on her, mocking her for her misplaced trust. Aphra reveals that she had never trusted Ruz, and theassassinJust Lucky shoots the bountyhunterdead with asniper rifle. AnAll Terrain Armored Transport approaches, forcing Aphra, Krrsantan, and Lucky to flee aboard Aphra'sstarship, theArk Angel III, abandoning most of the cargo.[4]

The search begins[]

At theShadow University, Aphra hands in afork-nosed ice worm fossil she found aboard the Hoth transport, and is paid bySavaEstat for the find. As Aphra, Krrsantan, and Lucky celebrate themoney, they are approached by the Shadow University studentDetta Yao. Yao, having been inspired by a guest lecture Aphra taught severalyears prior, wished to hire her to find the Rings of Vaale, a lost artifact that Yao intended to write her thesis on. Yao explains that the Rings, which the university does not believe are real, supposedly granted eternal life and boundless fortune when worn together, but were also cursed. Both Aphra and Lucky are intrigued by the artifact, and the archaeologist agrees to help Yao find the Rings in exchange for money, and accepts the deal.[4]

Yao explains that only one academic wrote about the Rings of Vaale: DoctorEustacia Okka, formerprofessor at the Shadow University. Aphra is discouraged, having previously been classmates with Okka, though they had since fallen out. Nevertheless, Aphra heads to find Okka onKolkur, where the former professor is studying a set ofancient ruins with herdroid,TA-418. Okka is similarly displeased to see Aphra, and refuses to help anyone finds the Rings of Vaale, having been asked numerous times by Ronen Tagge, scion of the powerful Tagge family. At that moment, a number ofmercenaries working for Tagge enter the ruins, intending to force Okka into cooperating. Aphra initiates a firefight with the mercenaries, and Okka activates the large droid guardians of the ruins, causing them to attack the mercenaries. With the mercenaries distracted, Aphra, her associates, and Okka escape to theArk Angel III, where Okka is convinced to help the crew find the Rings in return for receiving credit for the find. Explaining the history of the Rings, Okka identifies their location asDianth in theMalitoris system, which had supposedly become corrupted by the artifact's curse. Aphra expresses doubt about the truth of the curse and its effects, but sets a course for Dianth.[4]

Tagge's ruminations[]

In hisprivate penthouse inCanto Bight, Ronen Tagge has twoartists debate over which of their creations is superior. Knowing Tagge's reputation for obtaining rare artifacts solely to destroy them, the two artists attempt to persuade Tagge to choose the others' artwork over theirs. Before Tagge can decide, his mercenaries return from Kolkur, informing him that Okka escaped with Doctor Aphra. Tagge, angered by the news, decides to destroy both artwork as the artists watch in despair. Tagge orders his forces to disperse hisfleet and find Okka, wishing to personally settle a debt with Aphra.[4]
