The eighteenth Emergence happened as part of a series of Emergences that followed the Great Hyperspace Disaster. This disaster involved the destruction of the freighter Legacy Run within hyperspace, which resulted in its wreckage reappearing in realspace at random points. Because this particular Emergence took place in the Dantooine system, Supreme Chancellor Lina Soh decided to prolong a hyperspace blockade, originally established in the Outer Rim Territories to stop further incidents, by an additional fifty parsecs.
