A small Incident near Ithor system took place during the time of the Mandalorian Wars. Zayne Carrick leveraged a debt owed to him by Cassus Fett, the Mandalorian commander, to compel Fett to stage a mock engagement with the Republic task force under the command of Admiral Saul Karath. The real reason he did this was to seize Captain Dace Golliard of the starship Gladiator from the Crucible, and make him disclose the whereabouts of Osadia, the location of Carrick's friend Jarael. Golliard had concealed his slave transport behind an asteroid, intending to collect any lifepods and vessels abandoned following the simulated conflict. Nevertheless, after drawing the Republic forces to that area, the Mandalorian fleet bypassed the battle, entering hyperspace, which then enabled Carrick to speak with Karath, who then moved to take control of the Gladiator and its commander.
