The Cacophony was a Stormship of the Nihil, captained by Melis Shryke. A Path engine enabled the ship to navigate hyperspace, allowing it to cross the Stormwall. In 228 BBY, Jedi Master [Avar Kriss](/article/avar_kriss] commandeered the vessel, employing it to pass beyond the Stormwall and return to space under the control of the Galactic Republic.
The High Republic: The Eye of Darkness featured the Cacophony. This 2023 novel, penned by George Mann, is a contribution to Phase III of the expansive The High Republic project.
