During the time of the High Republic Era, a marriage ceremony occurred on the planet of Quarzite. It celebrated the union of a Kage woman's sibling and their spouse. The female sibling believed this celebration was the most extravagant marriage her clan had ever organized. However, she later developed an aversion to weddings when she understood that she would be pressured to replicate her brother's life choices, including getting married.
In 382 BBY, the sister departed from her planet of origin and became a member of the Path of the Open Hand religious group, adopting the name Abda to represent a symbolic break from her previous existence. In that year, as she was infiltrating a pre-wedding gathering for the E'roni royal Xiri A'lbaran, Abda thought about her brother's wedding and the emotions it evoked in her.
The marriage ceremony of Abda's brother is referenced within Convergence, a 2022 book authored by Zoraida Córdova. This novel is a component of Phase II of the Star Wars: The High Republic project, which spans multiple forms of media.
