Plot summary[]

"THE BETRAYAL OF KHASHYUN"
BLACK SPIRE OUTPOST is a haven for smugglers, merchants and travelers from
every corner of the galaxy--all looking to make the score of a lifetime through
the infamous black market.

The mysterious Dok-Ondar is known far and wide as a collector and trader of
only the most valuable artifacts money can buy. But a trio of outlaws — KENDOH,
REMEX and WOORO are after the fabled SWORD OF KHASHYUN that even Dok-
Ondar fears…and they've hatched a scheme to swindle the Ithorian out of it.

Kendoh plans to hire pirate Hondo Ohnaka to help them escape the First Order

And that Dok and Hondo have some history with the sword--and with rogue
archaeologist DOCTOR APHRA!

Preparing for the heist[]

Resistance soldier barely escapes Batuu

A Resistance soldier barely escapes the First Order.

Over Batuu a First Order assault shuttle is deployed from a Resurgent-class Star Destroyer. As the shuttle moved toward the surface of the planet a skirmish was taking place between a group of stormtroopers and two Resistance suspects. The First Order sergeant appeared from the shuttle on his 125-Z treadspeeder bike, he was annoyed with his troopers for not taking out the Resistance suspects themselves but went ahead and did it for them. The sergeant was then told that there were three more Resistance suspects marked for death. He told his fellow troopers to move out but unbeknownst to them, there was a Resistance agent listening to them nearby.

At Dok-Ondar's Den of Antiquities Dok-Ondar was making some touches to a statue outside his store. He placed his hand on the statue and vowed to never forget his mother and father. Hondo Ohnaka then called over to Dok-Ondar with some information about the Kendoh Gang led by Kendoh Voss. Hondo labeled them as dangerous but is quickly interrupted by Dok-Ondar who ushers him inside but not before a camera picked up their conversation and playing it to Kendoh and her fellow crew members. Hondo is angry with Ondar that he didn't tell him the Kendoh knew about the Sword of Khashyun. Dok-Ondar said that they can't let the sword fall into the wrong hands and they will have to move it into hiding tonight. But Kendoh already has the blade of the sword and only needed the hilt. But in order to get full payment for the sword then they move forward with the heist at night. As Kendoh and Wooro leave, Remex Io stayed behind for a minute to deactivate a cam droid that was inside Dok-Ondar's shop. Back at Dok-Ondar's shop Hondo is getting annoyed and asked Dok-Ondar what is going on starting with the job he took to get the sword with Doctor Chelli Lona Aphra.[3]

Mission to Moraband[]

Moraband sentry-GE4

A Sith warrior kills one of the Shistavanens.

Doctor Aphra told Dok-Ondar that it was going to be expensive because she had to worry about keeping him alive, but Ondar insisted that he was paying her more than enough. Dok-Ondar brought along three Shistavanens for the mission to provide extra muscle. Aphra and Ondar discussed the cursed sword, the history behind it and how to get it before they reached the surface of Moraband. As they began to walk through the Sith temple the doctor noted that the Sith temple was filled with booby traps. One of the Shistavanens stepped on a booby trap and a mummified Sith warrior came out of the shadows and killed the Shistavanen with it's mace. Aphra threw a thermal detonator at the Sith warrior caused it to explode. Back on Dok-Ondar's ship he and other Shistavanen are trying to get a transmission to Doctor Aphra when 0-0-0 appears. Dok-Ondar was not paying attention to the protocol droid when he pulled out blades from his fingertips.

Sith Dowutin mummy GE4

Doctor Aphra locates the Sword of Khashyun.

Back at the Sith temple, Doctor Aphra and her droid BT-1 about their betrayal of Dok-Ondar. The doctor then had BT-1 release his drone down a hallway but was destroyed by the lasers set off by a booby trap. The group went the other direction and after passing a few more deadly traps, they had reached their destination. The Sword of Khashyun was planted into the ground blade first in front of a mummified Dowutin Sith. Doctor Aphra claimed it was the most beautiful thing she had ever seen. As the Shistavanen went over to go take the sword out from its place, Doctor Aphra felt a wind coming in from deep in the temple. The Sith warbeast Tuk'ata came from the shadows and started to chase the group through the hallways. In order to improve their chances of survival, BT-I tripped the Shistavanen that was with them. The hound at the Shistavanen and proceeded to fall into Aphra's trap. As Aphra laid there on the ground complaining about a sprained ankle the warbeast leaped at her but was killed by the lasers as it set off a booby trap. As Aphra and BT-1 made their way out of the Sith temple, they were stopped by Dok-Ondar who managed to dismember 0-0-0 from killing him and was now going to force Doctor Aphra into new negotiations.[3]

Off to a bad start[]

RedFury-GE4

The 709th legion on Batuu.

Back on present day Batuu, Hondo was still surprised that Dok-Ondar left Doctor Aphra on Moraband. Dok-Ondar told him that there was more to the story but was interrupted by Wooro and Kendoh Voss who had Ondar's security droid head in her hand. Kendoh was mistaken when she assumed that Dok-Ondar was undefended when he took out his main security droid, BK-86. Kendoh was surprised to see another security droid but Remex Io brought even more bad news when he located the First Order nearby.[3]
