The Mirial system was a star system[4] located in the Illisurevimurasi sector of the Outer Rim Territories.[1] It contained the planet[5] Mirial, which was home to the near-human Mirialan species,[2] and at least one other planet.[4] The system was located in the grid square Q-4 of the Standard Galactic Grid.[1]

Around 1 BBY,[6] a small rebellious militia group from planets within the Mirial system was active before its members were imprisoned by the Galactic Empire across different prisons in an attempt to separate them. The Empire's efforts, however, were not enough as the Mirialan Yalla, a member of the militia who had been imprisoned in Imperial Detention Center & Labor Camp LEG-817 on the planet Wobani, knew other prisoners at Wobani that were part of the group and made contact with them, sharing brief coded exchanges. Sometime afterward, the group unsuccessfully attempted to escape the prison and Yalla was killed.[4]

Behind the scenes[]

The Mirial system was introduced in the new Star Wars canon on a galactic map included with the Star Wars: The Force Awakens Beginner Game, a roleplaying game produced by Fantasy Flight Games and released in 2016.[7] The system was later identified in the 2017 young-adult novel Rebel Rising, written by Beth Revis.[4] In the Star Wars Legends continuity, the Mirial system was first indirectly mentioned in the 2001 novel Cloak of Deception, written by James Luceno,[8] before it was later identified in the 2009 reference book The Essential Atlas, written by Daniel Wallace and Jason Fry.[9]

This assumes that the name "Listehol Run," as used in "Scarif and Other Planets in the Outer Rim" — Star Wars Encyclopedia, applies to the canon hyperspace route depicted on the map that matches the depiction of the Star Wars Legends route with the same name in The Essential Atlas per BlueskyLogo Jason Fry (@jasoncfry.bsky.social.) on Bluesky (post on January 3, 2025): "They are indeed the same. Same galaxy, same map. In the rare event something needs to be changed, it will be discussed. (In response to: Hi @jasoncfry.bsky.social, was hoping you could confirm for Wookieepedia purposes that the hyperspace routes depicted on the Galaxy Map given out at Celebration are intended to be the same routes as in Legends. Sorry to bother, but would make our lives much easier to have it confirmed!)" (screenshot).
