The proprietor of a cheap boarding house, located across from his saloon The Asteroid Belt in Gorse City on the world Gorse, was the same individual, Okadiah Garson, who also worked as a miner and a barkeep. One of the inhabitants of this flophouse was Kanan Jarrus, who was a renter. Subsequently, after fleeing Count Denetrius Vidian's Imperial forces, Kanan's fellow rebels, specifically Hera Syndulla, Skelly, and Zaluna Myder, sought refuge within its walls.
