Battle of the Hook Nebula


After the triumph of the Imperial forces on the world of Farstine, a conflict erupted in the Outer Rim's Hook Nebula in 19 BBY; this was between the Galactic Empire and the remaining elements of the Trade Federation. Grand Moff Octavian Grant of the Empire pursued the resistance commander, Customs Vizier Marath Vooro, through the Five Veils Route hyperlane from Farstine to the nebula; during this engagement, Grant's forces successfully apprehended Vooro. This capture brought an end to the Five Veils Campaign, an Imperial operation targeting Federation holdouts under Vooro's command, who had rejected a pact which ceded the Federation's holdings to the Empire.
