- "We had a true victory at Elessia. Two full rebel divisions reunited, and we sent Commander Zahra and her Imperials running."
- ―Leia Organa
Elessia was an astronomical object in the Mid Rim Territories.[1] After the fleet of the Rebel Alliance scattered following the Battle of Hoth[3] in 3 ABY,[4] Commander Ellian Zahra of the Galactic Empire attacked the Seventh Division[3] at Elessia.[2] The Fourth Division arrived at the location of the battle,[3] and the combined rebel divisions ultimately forced the Imperials to retreat.[5]
