Soren, a starship component factory for the Rebel alliance, resided within the Mobetta system. After a failed mission to eliminate the Compellor within the Goff system at the Goff Platform, Soren's location was revealed, prompting Task Force Vengeance to dispatch the Imperial-class Star Destroyer named Rage. The Rage's orders were to render the factory inoperable, find any intelligence regarding rebel operations, and subsequently detonate charges to obliterate the facility during the First Battle of Mobetta. The rebels' efforts to extract their people using a YT-1300 light freighter called Goldhawk along with two Lambda-class T-4a shuttles aiming for the cruiser Crucible, were unsuccessful.
