Nixus was a frigid planet in the[5] Nixus system of the Outer Rim Territories' Parmic sector,[2] at the end of the Llanic Spice Run.[4] Despite sporting glacial terrain[5] and low-gravity,[6] the planet was not inhospitable[5] and actually hosted a structure, Nixus Hub 218. Hub 218 was populated and visited by numerous individuals, and at some point became the chosen location for a deal between crime lords Azmorigan and Cikatro Vizago. However, Vizago was incarcerated on his own ship by the pirate Hondo Ohnaka, who attempted to execute the deal in Vizago's place alongside the rebel Ezra Bridger. However, Azmorigan was not interested in dealing with Ohnaka or Bridger, and turned the Nixus Hub into a battleground. All three participants managed to escape the conflict unscathed.[6] Later, Bridger returned with members of the Spectres after Ohnaka revealed two Lasat fugitives were present on the world, Chava and Gron. A small firefight ensued, in which the two fugitives were taken away to rediscover the ancient Lasat homeworld Lira San.[7]

This assumes that the name "Llanic Spice Run," as used in Heir to the Jedi, 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 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).
