Liadden, a youthful smuggler, served as the co-pilot aboard the freighter known as the Seventy-Seven Stars. To'iir, the vessel's captain, acted as her mentor, viewing her as his protégé in the illicit world of smuggling.
During the year 3 ABY, both To'iir and Liadden received invitations to the secluded quarters of Rithgar at the Kothlis shadowport. It was there that To'iir met Tru'eb Cholakk, and the pair exchanged intelligence and gossip regarding other smugglers. The gathering was cut short when, without warning, a Super-class Star Destroyer drew near to the shadowport.
