It is a time of rebuilding for the Empire. After the
Death Star's destruction, Darth Vader, the
Emperor's chief enforcer, struggled to keep his
place after he was seemingly put in a rivalry with the
cybernetically-enhanced operatives of a cyborg
specialist named Cylo.
Vader was sent to the ore-rich planet of Shu-Torun to
bring its leadership in line. After assassinating the
ruling family and installing its youngest daughter as
Queen, Vader promised worse for their planet should
it not fall in line.
Soon after, one of Cylo's agents, a cyborg Mon
Calamari named General Karbin, laid a trap for
Vader, setting the Dark Lord against a Rebel Fleet
with no backup. Vader survived and made Karbin pay
for his deception, but in doing so, his secret ally
Doctor Aphra was captured by the rebels....[3]
