Massacre at Ossus

"I know the Jedi from old. They could never share my vision. Two days ago the Jedi Temple on Coruscant fell. Today, at their academy on Ossus, the last of the Jedi will die."

- Darth Krayt

The Massacre at Ossus took place at 130 ABY, two days after the defeat of the Jedi Order and the Galactic Federation of Free Alliances by the new Galactic Empire and the New Sith Order, at the Battle of Coruscant, towards the end of the Sith-Imperial War.

The Galactic Alliance was absorbed into the Empire at the end of the war, and the Emperor Fel called for the Jedi to surrender and subject themselves to the will of the Empire. However, the Jedi rejected the Emperor's demand and withdrew to the Jedi Academy at Ossus. Thus, they were attacked by Sith forces led by Darth Krayt and Imperial forces led by Moff Rulf Yage.

The Sith/Imperial attack proved devastating with many of the Jedi killed. Kol Skywalker sacrificed himself in the defense of Ossus, giving his son Cade Skywalker and several other Jedi apprentices time to escape during the confusion into hyperspace on various Jedi Shuttles. Shortly after, the Sith turned against Emperor Fel and his Imperial Knights.
