A fierce offensive, orchestrated by a unit of Pijali blackguards, transpired on the Inner Rim world of Pijal during 40 BBY. These soldiers, acting covertly on directives from Pijali Princess Fanry, executed numerous assaults throughout Pijal and its moon, all while being overseen by captain Deren of the monarch's royal guard.
As the assaults escalated in intensity, Fanry played a role in shifting the blame for these events onto the Opposition acting group, who were engaged in a series of peaceful protests opposing the enactment of the Governance Treaty. Several of the targeted sites belonged to the Czerka Corporation and were under the control of its local Sector Supervisor, Meritt Col. Under the impression that the Opposition was responsible for the blackguards' activities, Rael Averross, the lord regent of Pijal, sought to capture the group.
This offensive is depicted in the 2019 book Master & Apprentice, penned by Claudia Gray.
