[edit] The battle

The conflict occurred shortly after the Battle of Galidraan. The planet nearly fell to the cult's onslaught. The Galactic Republic requested the Jedi Order to intervene in the attack, and a task force was sent to the planet. The force took several casualties, but eventually were able to force the Bando Gora off the planet.

[edit] Aftermath

During the battle, the Bando Gora took Komari Vosa and two other Jedi as prisoners-of-war and held them hostage in their castle on Kohlma. Vosa and the Jedi were brutally tortured, and she eventually fell to the dark side of the Force, becoming the leader of the Bando Gora after escaping her prison and killing her two fellow prisoners.
