- ↑ The start of The High Republic: The Eye of Darkness dates itself to a year after the destruction of Starlight Beacon, which Star Wars: Timelines dates to 230 BBY. Star Wars: Timelines dates Starlight Beacon's destruction to 230 BBY. The implementation of the Guardian Protocols, which Star Wars: The High Republic Character Encyclopedia places in 229 BBY, took place one week after Starlight Beacon's fall according to The High Republic: Shadows of Starlight 1. As The High Republic Adventures (2023) 4 takes place one year and two weeks after the destruction of Starlight Beacon, its events must be set in 228 BBY. Since the events of The High Republic Adventures (2023) 6 are set immediately following the fourth issue and depict the expansion of the Stormwall, the events in The Eye of Darkness following the expansion must take place in 228 BBY as well. As "Tales from the Occlusion Zone: No Big Deal" dates itself to "a little more than a year" after the destruction of Starlight Beacon and features the expansion of the Stormwall, the short story must occur in 228 BBY.
