During his captivity, Yalta Val was forced to wear the Sith apprentice's helmet and clothes, and had his hands bound in restraints. Val was also guarded by [[Dieben]], a [[Nalydian]] henchman of the fallen Sith master and his apprentice, who gave him a putrid soup for sustenance. Meanwhile, the Sith apprentice, who was named [[Darth Wredd]], assumed Val's identity and was rescued by [[Governor]] [[Biala]]'s forces, who maintained a garrison at the communications array in the Carreras system. The "false Val" claimed that there was a Sith presence in the Carreras system and that the Sith had attacked his ship and murdered his entire crew, and that he had also lost his lightsaber. He also demanded that Governor Biala accelerate work on the communications array and that she give him personal control of all of her security forces.<ref name="POTFW1" />

Later, Yalta Val was contacted by his captor via an ingenious [[hologram projection pod]], who noted his captive's discomfort with the mask. When Val asked who his captor was, Darth Wredd refused to disclose his identity but mentioned that Val's mask was the same one which his late master had forced him to wear during his apprenticeship in order to temper his weakness and teach him hate. When Val queried why his captor had not chosen to kill him, Wredd replied that he was smarter and more ambitious than his late master. Darth Wredd then presented Val with the choice of embracing the [[Dark Side of the Force|Dark Side]] and joining his cause, or waiting in captivity. Meanwhile, Wredd, in his guise as Yalta Val, used Governor Biala's forces in to recover Val's lightsaber from Ania Solo and her associates [[Sauk]] and [[AG-37]]. Howver, Solo and her associates managed to evade capture. While tinkering with Val's comm droid, they found that the droid had recorded a lightsaber duel between the real Yalta Val and the Sith master.<ref name="POTFW2">''[[Star Wars: Legacy 2: Prisoner of the Floating World, Part 2]]''</ref>

Biography

Ambush in the Surd Nebula

Yalta Val was an Imperial Knight who served the newly-formed Triumvirate in the aftermath of the Second Imperial Civil War. In 138 ABY, Empress Marasiah Fel sent Yalta to the remote Carreras system in the Surd Nebula to activate a communication array which would connect isolated worlds of the Outer Rim with Coruscant, the galactic capital. Once in the Surd Nebula, he decided to launch a comm droid to serve as a beacon since the nebula interfered with the ship's communications. Upon exiting hyperspace, Val's ship crash-landed on Mala, an unidentified dark planet which did not orbit a star and was covered entirely in black rocks. Val's Imperial crew managed to land the ship on top of a rock. The shuttle's Stormtroopers immediately fanned out to establish a perimeter around the crash area. However, the Stormtroopers were quickly ambushed and killed by a Sith master of the One Sith, which had recently been defeated and forced into hiding by the Triumvirate.[1]

Yalta Val rushed out of the ship to and was immediately attacked by the unidentified Sith master, who was a red-skinned humanoid. While duelling with lightsabers, the Sith master used the Force to push Val and his shuttle down the hill. The ship's crew were killed in the ensuing clash but Val continued fighting the Sith master. The Sith master gained the upper hand and used the Force to shove Val into the ground. Before the Sith master could deliver his killing blow, he was slain by his own Sith apprentice, an unidentified Human man who donned a mask and cloak. After announcing that his apprenticeship was over, the Sith apprentice imprisoned Val and stole his armor in order to impersonate him. Meanwhile, the comm droid retrieved his lightsaber and decided to go home but it was destroyed on the way. Its remains were then discovered by a junk dealer, Ania Solo, who also acquired the lightsaber.[1]

Sith captivitiy

During his captivity, Yalta Val was forced to wear the Sith apprentice's helmet and clothes, and had his hands bound in restraints. Val was also guarded by Dieben, a Nalydian henchman of the fallen Sith master and his apprentice, who gave him a putrid soup for sustenance. Meanwhile, the Sith apprentice, who was named Darth Wredd, assumed Val's identity and was rescued by Governor Biala's forces, who maintained a garrison at the communications array in the Carreras system. The "false" Val claimed that there was a Sith presence in the Carreras system and that the Sith had attacked his ship and murdered his entire crew, and that he had also lost his lightsaber. He also demanded that Governor Biala accelerate work on the communications array and that she give him personal control of all of her security forces.[1]

Later, Yalta Val was contacted by his captor via an ingenious hologram projection pod, who noted his captive's discomfort with the mask. When Val asked who his captor was, Darth Wredd refused to disclose his identity but mentioned that Val's mask was the same one which his late master had forced him to wear during his apprenticeship in order to temper his weakness and teach him hate. When Val queried why his captor had not chosen to kill him, Wredd replied that he was smarter and more ambitious than his late master. Darth Wredd then presented Val with the choice of embracing the Dark Side and joining his cause, or waiting in captivity. Meanwhile, Wredd, in his guise as Yalta Val, used Governor Biala's forces in to recover Val's lightsaber from Ania Solo and her associates Sauk and AG-37. Howver, Solo and her associates managed to evade capture. While tinkering with Val's comm droid, they found that the droid had recorded a lightsaber duel between the real Yalta Val and the Sith master.[2]

Meanwhile, Yalta Val's fellow Imperial Knight Jao Assam, became concerned about the construction delays in the Carreras system. He was worried that he had not received any communication from Val, whom he argued would have used the comm droid to send them a new eta. Suspecting that something was wrong, he decided to take leave from his work supervising the Ithorian link in the communications array to investigate developments in the Carrerras system.[2] After arriving in the Carreras system, Assam narrowly escaped capture from the "false" Val's security force and encountered Ania Solo and her associates on the planet Carreras Minor.

Jao Assam and Ania and her associates then formed an alliance to find the real Yalta Val and stop the impersonator from exploiting with the communications array.[3]

While traveling there, Jao Assam, Ania and her associates were captured by the Carrerras security forces. By this stage, Governor Biala had become disturbed by the "false" Yal Val's erratic behavior and solicited the support of Assam, Ania, and her associates in getting rid of the Sith impostor. During a skirmish at the Carrerras communications array station, the "false" Val impaled Assam with two pieces of shrapnel and then fled back to Mala on a stolen shuttle.[4]
