Notes and references[]

↑ The Star Wars Book dates the launch of the Starlight Beacon, which is depicted as part of the events of The High Republic: Light of the Jedi, to 232 years before the events of Star Wars: Episode IV A New Hope, which corresponds to 232 BBY according to Star Wars: Galactic Atlas. The novel The High Republic: The Rising Storm takes place almost a year after the events of Light of the Jedi, so the events of The Rising Storm must take place around 231 BBY. The High Republic: Tempest Runner, which "Starlight: Past Mistakes" takes place shortly before, is set three months after the attack on Valo, meaning that its events must be set around that same year.
