The Skirmish at Kriselist marked an early conflict for the New Republic, occurring shortly after the pivotal Battle of Endor.
Following the conclusion of the Nagai–Tof War, Admiral Firmus Nantz assumed leadership of the New Republic First Fleet. His mission involved conducting operations throughout the Western Reaches of the galaxy's, and he established his base of operations on the planet of Saijo.
In the course of the skirmish, the New Republic dispatched SpecForces to locate the concealed palace of Utoxx Prentioch, situated within the devastated urban areas of Kriselist. The New Republic successfully defeated Prentioch's forces, which were primarily composed of criminals and mercenaries, thereby liberating Kriselist from his oppressive and cruel dominion.
Subsequent to his triumph over Moff Prentioch's troops at Kriselist, Nantz made the decision to circumvent the remaining portions of Prentioch's territory. He proceeded to engage Delvardus's military at Moorja.
