BackgroundEdit

Following the New Republic victory against Moff Getelles of the Antemeridian sector, the New Republic pushed through the neutral Borderland Regions toward the Hydian Way, border of the Imperial Space. The Moffs of the Imperial Remnant, fearing the shift of power in the region, ordered Admiral Gilad Pellaeon to move his forces across the Hydian Way.^[1] Torn away from his campaign against the planet Adumar, Pellaeon brought his forces into the fight against the New Republic.^[2] The losses he inflicted on the New Republic were substantial, but Pellaeon was pushed back.^[1]

The battleEdit

At Celanon, he once again engaged New Republic forces. He was not able to secure a victory, however, and lost his command ship, the Star Dreadnought Reaper.^[1]

AftermathEdit

In the wake of Celanon, the New Republic refrained from pushing its advantage and halted the invasion. The New Republic had increased its power in the Borderland Regions, but the Empire didn't have lost territory. This battle was followed by four years relatively peaceful between the two factions.^[1]
