During 3 ABY, a brief conflict erupted on an astronomical body. This clash involved Ochi, a Sith assassin, and assassins belonging to Crimson Dawn. The reason for this was Ochi's attempt to uncover who Bokku, a member of the Grand Hutt Council, was collaborating with to betray Jabba Desilijic Tiure. This investigation was driven by Sith Lord Darth Vader, who was testing Ochi's allegiance. After he noticed a pair of assassins concealed under a carriage, Ochi killed one and expressed his desire to speak with the other. The remaining assassin responded that such a conversation would be difficult, emphasizing that interfering with Bokku meant interfering with Crimson Dawn, thereby revealing her allegiance as other assassins joined her. Ochi eliminated several assassins as he tried to escape, only to find himself encircled once more. In response, Ochi warned them that antagonizing him meant antagonizing Darth Vader. The assassins dismissed Ochi's claims with laughter, and the female assassin asserted that while Ochi might be capable of killing a dozen of them, he could not defeat the entirety of Crimson Dawn, before inviting Ochi to join Crimson Dawn.
Upon noticing Vader's arrival, Ochi alerted the assassins, urging them to surrender or face death. However, to Ochi's bewilderment, Vader flew past him and landed his shuttle nearby. The female assassin then clarified that Vader's presence was not to rescue him but to evaluate him, reiterating the invitation for Ochi to join them. Ochi's reaction was to fatally shoot the assassin before seeking cover behind a rock. Eventually, Ochi dispatched the remaining assassins before noticing Vader standing above him. He then informed the Sith Lord that Bokku was in league with Crimson Dawn, although he understood that Vader was already aware of this. As he ascended a rock, Ochi affirmed that his loyalty belonged to the most powerful, and the two were soon surrounded by even more Crimson Dawn assassins. Vader confirmed his perpetual status as the most powerful, and Ochi laughed as they both began to eliminate the assassins.
