Ahakista, situated within the Ahakista system, was the site chosen for the construction of the Daystar Casino. Gronson Takkaro, a Dug gambler who previously held the position of operations manager at the casino, accumulated significant debts while on Ahakista, prompting his escape to the planet Lothal. In pursuit of Takkaro, the bounty hunter Bossk followed him to Lothal, intending to apprehend him and return him to Ahakista in order to collect the bounty that had been issued for the Dug's capture.
