The clandestine Jawa Data Crystal Information Area served as a hidden fortress for the Jawa species on the desert planet of Tatooine, functioning as a repository for droid components and Optical Information Crystals. These crystals held immense worth, prized by both the Galactic Empire and the Rebel Alliance. As the Galactic Civil War progressed, Keemee, a Jawa, received orders from Wimateeka, the chieftain of the Nkik clan, to oversee operations at the site and safeguard the precious data crystals.
