The following notable occurrences happened during the year 3988 BBY.
- On the planet Osadia, the Arkanian Offshoot named Edessa came into the world. [8] Wyrick considered her to be his most significant achievement within the scope of the New Generation Project, a sentiment reflected in her given name— Edessa, translating to "triumph." [9]
- A Force vision, subsequently called the Prophecy of the Five, was experienced by Krynda Draay. This prophecy predicted that five distinct individuals—one representing the light, one representing the dark, one who embodies darkness within the light, one who embodies light within the darkness, and a solitary figure—would be instrumental during the forthcoming major conflict, where "all established structures will crumble."
