Adar Tallon and a team of Alliance operatives escaped from Mos Eisley on the planet Tatooine.
Battle[]
Having survived a bounty hunter assault led by Jodo Kast on his home, Adar Tallon agreed to leave Tatooine with the Rebel forces that had arrived to protect him. Tallon and the Alliance operatives arrived in Mos Eisley with the intent of leaving the planet aboard their starship, the Alabak's Gold.[1]
The Imperial-class Star Destroyer Relentless arrived in the Tatoo system to secure Tallon. The local Imperial Prefect, Orun Depp, ordered Mos Eisley to be secured by his small stormtrooper force and ordered the spaceport closed and all civilians off the streets.[1]
The Alliance team arrived at Docking Bay 94 to collect their ship, only to find the Prefect and his stormtroopers waiting for them. The Alliance operatives and the Imperial forces engaged in a lightfight, which was interrupted by the assassin droid IG-72, intent on claiming the bounty on Tallon. The droid gunned down the remaining Imperial forces before focusing on the Rebels, however they managed to defeat the droid and escape from Mos Eisley.[1]
The Alabak's Gold, reinforced with Z-95 Headhunters allied to Tallon, faced off against three TIE/IN interceptors above Tatooine. Fending off the Imperial forces, the Alliance ships jumped to hyperspace and escaped.[1]
