- "We have moffs rebelling and claiming Palpatine is alive, we have Grand General Loring dug in on Malastare, we have—"
- ―Rae Sloane, to Gallius Rax
At some point following the rebellion on Akiva, Grand General Kenner Loring, along with his allies and co-conspirators such as Commander Valent, led a faction that opposed the rule of Fleet Admiral Gallius Rax over the fragmented Galactic Empire.[1] Eventually, Loring aligned his forces with those led by Grand Moff Ubrik Adelhard. As such, Loring entrenched himself on Malastare[3] in the Dustig sector[4] which he had been using as a holding station for the forces under his control. His forces included at least one Imperial-class Star Destroyer, TIE fighters, Imperial officers, and stormtroopers.[5]
