During the age of the High Republic Era, there existed a planet known as Waskiro, situated within the Occlusion Zone. Circa 229 BBY, a celebratory gala took place on this planet, honoring Marchion Ro, the supreme commander of the Nihil. To uncover the whereabouts of Baron Boolan alongside the imprisoned Jedi Master Sskeer, a Republic task force, comprised of Avar Kriss, Keeve Trennis, Tey Sirrek, and former Nihil affiliates Lourna Dee and [Quin], secretly entered the festivities. Unfortunately, Ro detected their presence, and after Dee's assault on Ro, Ro's vessel, the Gaze Electric, obliterated the palace with explosives.
