During the time of the New Republic Era, a skirmish broke out near a hidden Mandalorian covert. This happened while the Children of the Watch were performing an induction ceremony when a dinosaur turtle unexpectedly assaulted members of the Tribe. The Mandalorians struggled to subdue the creature until Din Djarin showed up. Djarin, who had reunited with Grogu and seen the war against the Pykes over since their last encounter, also possessed evidence suggesting the continued existence of the Living Waters on Mandalore. He came seeking "the Armorer's" approval for a mission to regain his standing in the eyes of the Children of the Watch. The timely arrival of Din Djarin's N-1 starfighter proved crucial in vanquishing the dinosaur turtle, as he fired a proton torpedo that struck the monster, resulting in its death and the rescue of the remaining Mandalorians.
