Biography[]
- "Welcome to Mos Eisley. Watch your back here. There has never been a more wretched hive of scum and villainy, as you may have heard."
- ―Trehla Keelo, to a spacer
Trehla Keelo resided in Mos Eisley after the Battle of Yavin. During that time, she used to spend a lot of time near the spaceport from where she tried to help spacers and newcomers in Mos Eisley to be more familiar with the city that she considered as a hive of scum and villainy.[1] Thanks to her numerous and varied acquaintances, including Mayor Mikdanyell Guh'rantt,[3] the entertainer Allura, the medic Kazen Harn,[4] and the Quarren Gendra,[5] she also helped these spacers to find a respectable profession.[4]
In 1 ABY,[6] Trehla Keelo started to work with a spacer who just arrived on Tatooinne after escaping an Imperial space station with the help of one of her acquaintances Darex Rath.[7] With the assistance of the spacer, she discovered that Tusken Raiders were gathering near Mos Eisley in order to attack the city. After a skirmish with the Tuskens in Junktown,[8] she dispatched a spacer to travel to Mos Espa to inform the journalist Trace Lyson about the situation.[9] It was later discovered that the crime lord Jabba the Hutt was inciting the Tusken Raiders to attack Mos Eisley in order to pressurize the mayor of Mos Eisley and eventually take control of the city.[10]
Trehla Keelo was also acquainted with Vourk ver'Zremp, who was working in Jabba Desilijic Tiure's criminal empire. Although she despised the Hutt crime lord, she tried to assist anyway individuals forced to work for the Hutt. Vourk ver'Zremp therefore often referred new Jabba henchmen to her.[5] In 1 ABY,[6] she also helped a spacer who arrived on Tatooine with Han Solo from Tansarii Point Station.[2]

- ↑ 6.0 6.1 According to its opening crawl, Star Wars Galaxies was set sometime after Star Wars: Episode IV A New Hope. The only precise time indication in the game was given by the character Ruwan Tokai, who referenced the destruction of the Death Star at the Battle of Yavin as occurring one year earlier, placing the game sometime around 1 ABY. Later, multiple elements confirmed the placement of the game storyline in 1 ABY. First, The Essential Reader's Companion established that the tie-in novel Star Wars Galaxies: The Ruins of Dantooine took place in 1 ABY. Furthermore, the game expansion Star Wars Galaxies: Rage of the Wookiees was set during the Blockade of Kashyyyk, one year after the Battle of Yavin according to The Star Wars Holiday Special. Additionally, the main scenario of The Nightsister's Revenge from the Star Wars Galaxies Trading Card Game was set over a year before the Battle of Hoth (3 ABY), so around 1.5 ABY. Finally, the reference book Strongholds of Resistance placed the events of Star Wars Galaxies's Chapter 9: "The Fury of Exar Kun" one year after the Battle of Yavin. Of note, Galaxies's Chapter 11: "The Battle of Echo Base" introduced the Battle of Hoth in the game. However, the developers were quite clear that this was only intended to be a completely isolated "Star Wars Moment" without any effect on continuity for the rest of the game.
