"I'll pay your tithes. But I want in."

―Melis Shryke, to General Viess^[1]

Bantoo was a planet located in the Outer Rim Territories.^[1] In 229 BBY,^[3] it fell within the Nihil pirates Occlusion Zone, and the Nihil sent a group led by Minister of Protection General Abediah Viess to collect tithes from the planet. When they arrived at the city Jodzia, Jodzia's mayor refused to pay the tithes, claiming that the Nihil erection of the Stormwall to create the Occlusion Zone was illegal. In response, the Nihil razed three districts of Jodzia. Feeling trapped by the supposed restrictions her family had placed on her, Melis Shryke raided her family's vault and paid tribute to the Nihil, and asked to join them. Viess accepted Shryke's demand.^[1]

↑ The High Republic: The Eye of Darkness establishes that the attack on Bantoo took place around six months before the first anniversary of the destruction of Starlight Beacon, which Star Wars: The High Republic Character Encyclopedia dates to 229 BBY. Furthermore, the novel states that Pra-Tre Veter was captured two months prior to its events. The High Republic: Shadows of Starlight 3 depicts that event as taking place nine months after Starlight Beacon's destruction. Therefore, the attack on Bantoo, must have taken place around four months before Veter's capture, or the fifth month after Starlight Beacon's fall. The events of The High Republic: Shadows of Starlight 1 which feature Lina Soh requesting the Jedi Order assist the Republic Defense Coalition against the Nihil are established by the issue to take place in the fifth month after Starlight Beacon's destruction, and are dated to 229 BBY by Star Wars: The High Republic Character Encyclopedia. Therefore, the attack on Bantoo must also take place in that year.
