Rix Road

Rix Road was a main street on the Ferrix business center. It began in the junction of two smaller streets right below the Ferrix bell tower, passed by a large hotel and culminated on the Fountain Square, where the funeral service of upstanding citizens would be conducted and their final message broadcasted during the "Stone to the Sky" ceremony. During the early Imperial Era, an anti-Imperial protest occurred on the street while clone troopers marched through the town. Following the protest, it was also where executions by hanging would be performed by the Galactic Empire, such as the execution of Clem Andor in 18 BBY. In 5 BBY the practice remained in effect, and and Captain Vanis Tigo ordered for Salman Paak to be publicly executed that way. Three days later, during Maarva Carassi Andor's funeral service, Tigo would interrupt her final message due to anti-Imperial speech, prompting a violent response from attending Daughters of Ferrix and kickstarting a massive riot.
