Raid on the Forsaken Den

"Matriarch! Flesh Raiders broke through our defenses. They did something to our crop fields!"

- Eseni

During the Flesh Raider uprising on Tython during the Cold War, the apprentice of Jedi Master Orgus Din assaulted a Flesh Raider

Prelude
Near the end of the Cold War between the Galactic Republic and the Sith Empire, the native Flesh Raiders of the Jedi Order's homeworld of Tython began attacking in greater numbers. The Order had recently discovered that the former Padawan of Jedi Master Orgus Din, the Nautolan Bengel Morr&mdash;who had vanished during the Sacking of Coruscant over ten years ago&mdash;was the mastermind behind the Flesh Raiders' invasion. After a successful raid on the Flesh Raiders' command base, Din and the other Jedi had learned of the locations of several other camps. Since there were not enough Masters to attack them all, Din sent his Padawan to destroy a camp in the ruins of the ancient temple of Kaleth.

Attacking the caves
Fighting through the ancient war droids that guarded the ruins, the Padawan entered the cave system where the Flesh Raiders had made their camp. Just inside the entrance, however, the apprentice was stopped by an injured Selkath Jedi named Laotah

Aftermath
"I saw how you suffered out there. What you suffered out there. What you did was more than brave&mdash;it was heroic."

- Ranna Tao'ven

Returning to the Matriarch's building, the Padawan was thanked by Tao'ven for the help. After giving the Jedi a token of the village's thanks, she left to tell the village the good news.

The apprentice, meanwhile, contacted Master Din via holocomm and learned of his success against the Flesh Raiders. When the Padawan informed Din of Morr's goal of destroying the Jedi so he could ultimately rebuild them and destroy the Sith, he was relieved to hear that his former apprentice was not a Sith himself. During the attack on the Flesh Raiders' command base, Din had found the locations of many other camps&mdash;too many camps for the Jedi Council to only send Jedi Masters. As a result, Din requested that his Padawan take out the base located in the ruins of Kaleth, since the apprentice had already defeated some of the natives who had been based at that camp.

Behind the scenes
The skirmish in the Kalikori Village fields appears in Star Wars: The Old Republic, a massively multiplayer online role-playing game released by BioWare on December 20, 2011. The raid represents the events of the Jedi Knight class story mission "The Face of the Enemy", where the player returns to the village in search Orgus Din but is forced to stop a Flesh Raider attack on the village.
