An ancient conflict, whose name has been lost to time, unfolded well before the events of 0 ABY. The Keeper recounts that this war consumed the whole of the galaxy, spanning its entire breadth.

They fashioned the Keeper, entrusting it with the task of revitalizing their planet once the war had ended, hoping for their eventual homecoming.
