Battle of Zeltros

Following the defeat suffered at Trenwyth, the Nagai military leadership issued fresh directives to Commander Knife and his troops: initiate an invasion of Zeltros. The Zeltrons, known for their intense ardor in combat, had been identified as a significant danger from the onset of the invasion. The directive was to suppress their resistance. Lieutenant Den Siva volunteered to spearhead the mission, leading a contingent of Nagai and Maccabree warriors toward Zeltros.

Simultaneously, and without knowledge of the impending Nagai assault, the heroes representing the Alliance of Free Planets had converged on Zeltros. Their objective was to convince the Zeltron leaders, Arno and Leonie, to commit to the war effort. Additionally, two other invading forces were en route to Zeltros: one aligned with the Hiromi, and the other with the Tof.

To commemorate the arrival of the Free Alliance heroes, the Zeltron leaders hosted a lavish celebration. The Nagai forces disrupted the festivities, disarming Han Solo and taking the partygoers as prisoners. Separately, within the palace, Den Siva personally apprehended Leia Organa and Dani. Luke Skywalker and Plif were also captured, but by the overly enthusiastic Hiromi. Despite his ability to easily escape, Luke chose to cooperate with the insects, curious about their motives on Zeltros.

Luke was escorted to the palace kitchens, where the Hiromi began preparing a grand feast to celebrate their perceived "conquest" of the planet. This culinary endeavor was interrupted by a squad of Tof, who had launched their own assault on the palace.

The Tof also encountered Den Siva, coercing him into leading his Nagai forces and their captives into a Tof trap, thereby delivering Leia and Dani into the clutches of the Tof.

Within the kitchens, Luke, aided by a group of Hoojibs, successfully repelled the Tof invaders, liberating the Hiromi. With the assistance of the Hoojibs and the Hiromi, Luke battled his way through Tof squads and freed Leia and Dani. They then departed to assist Han, Chewbacca, and Lando Calrissian, who were being reluctantly led into an ambush by Den. Accompanied by the Hoojibs and the Hiromi, Luke advanced toward the Tof command ship Wayfarer, aiming to rescue Leia's Zeltron aides, who had been captured by the Tof under the mistaken belief that they were high-ranking Alliance commanders. With only a handful of Tof remaining on board the massive command ship, Luke and his team successfully rescued the four captured Zeltrons and planted explosives that destroyed the vessel.

Concurrently, the Tof ambush decimated the Nagai forces, seizing the Nagai prisoners – including Han, Chewbacca, and Lando – for themselves. Han and Lando intervened to de-escalate the situation, but it was Leia and Dani's surprise assault that provided the prisoners with an opportunity to retaliate against the Tof. Encouraged by Lando, the prisoners overcame the Tof forces. In the aftermath of the conflict, Den Siva emerged, offering to align himself with the Alliance.

With the Nagai and Tof forces neutralized, and the Hiromi "threat" mitigated by Luke Skywalker, Zeltros was once again secure. Following the battle, the Nagai forged an alliance with the Alliance, uniting to confront the greater threat posed by the Tof. It was at this juncture that the Dark Lady Lumiya defected from the Nagai to join the Tof, driven by her determination to end Luke Skywalker's life.

Shortly after the truce on Zeltros, the Provisional Council of the Alliance of Free Planets convened and voted to transmit the Declaration of a New Republic.
