Forum:KB:Tythe and Nelvaan

The battles of Tythe and Nelvaan both were created to show Anakin Skywalker and Obi-Wan Kenobi beeing kept away from Coruscant. One being described in Labyrinth of Evil the other in the animated series Star Wars: Clone Wars.

To fit within the chronology there have been different ideas how to place them. The New Essential Chronology states that the Tythe battle happens after the events on Nelvaan, while Leland Chee meant to fix it the other way round some month earlier.

"In the series, Anakin and Obi-Wan investigate a possible base for Grievous on frigid Nelvaan, and Anakin goes on a spiritual journey; however, in the novel, Anakin and Obi-Wan search for traces of Darth Sidious on Tythe. Dooku only briefly pauses at Nelvaan. (This was explained by stating that their mission to Nelvaan actually happened before the novel, even before they attack Cato Neimoidia, which is their first mission in the novel. This is similar to how the episodes with Dooku meeting and training Asajj Ventress happen quite a while before Anakin and Kenobi's assault on Muunilinst.) Also, according to The New Essential Chronology, Anakin and Obi-Wan visited Nelvaan before Tythe."

- Wookieepedia article Star Wars: Clone Wars

I'd like to know where these information from the Wookieepedia article Star Wars: Clone Wars(I've marked the concerning lines in bold) came from and if there where more official statements to the discrepancy. I'd also appreciate if you could tell me whether it was directly stated or just guessed that the Clone Wars episodes where based on early plot outlines for the novel.

Thanks in advance! — Isthisthedroidiamlookingfor 18:04, December 12, 2011 (UTC)
